Software competitors

I looked up some other companies out there that are currently doing
what it is that we want to.
One of the bigger ones I found was www.shiftboard.com.
They've got a pretty extensive website that basically
gives out a lot of information about their services, accomplishments,
and even their pricing structure.
I also talked to my roommate, who worked at Olive Garden, and
quizzed him about their online scheduling system. He said that's the
central hub where they check their schedules, ask for days off,
find out about specials that are offered to employees, evaluate
employee benefits, and whole bunch of other things for management.
Anyway, I thought these were some interesting things to consider
and possibly implement into what we want to do.
