Axe to grind
I have removed the sentence: "Many smaller businesses have part time workers who may be studying on the side or have other jobs they attend to."

In addition to its lack of immediately relevance to the article (it may be appropriate for an article on part-time work in general, or on employee scheduling), it presents a trend toward part-time work in the "composition of the modern workforce" as an employee driven trend, which is hardly the whole story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.91.34.17 (talk) 14:52, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

Except for fixing the sources and maybe putting the "complexities" after the "features", Overall good Wiki!

You give a good general definition of what an Employee Scheduling Software is and does and how people and companies benefit from it.

I think the section giving other related topics similar to this one is a really good touch to help the reader fully understand and/or get multiple perspectives on the topic.

I suggest switching Features and Complexity because Features are more relevant to the definition while complexities just give more detail to Employee Scheduling Software's impact on the workplace.

Good Job Team!

Peer Review (akn19) I like that the definition is good a descriptive however I feel there is maybe more you can add. Just to make the article a bit more full.

I did not find any grammatical issues which was great.

Maybe adding to how Employee Scheduling Software has changed throughout the years could help expand your article a little bit more. Or you can also add a little bit of history how they came up with this software.

Over all this wiki page is good I would just really try to incorporate any other information that can help develop you wiki page!

Other than that great job! Akn19 (talk) 09:06, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
