ShiftWise works in partnership with hospitals to develop and implement a strategic staffing plan to attract, hire, deploy and retain a flexible workforce. They advertise themselves as delivering their software as a service (SaaS) and have already become an established resource for hospitals nationwide.
Here’s a set of screenshots for comparison’s sake. The first image is where ShiftWise was before coming to us. The next one is where we’re at today.

One of the first things you’ll notice with the new site is its clean look and feel. We’ve done our best to make navigating through the site intuitive and easy. No more distracting aesthetics and chaotic layout. We’ve tried to calm things down a bit and create a look and feel commensurate with the level of professionalism ShiftWise operates with on a daily basis.
Besides the obvious visual changes, a lot has changed for ShiftWise under the hood as well. For one, they’re now working with Evergreen, our Content Management System. The Shiftwise project utilizes two custom modules within Evergreen.
- Training Calendar Module: Prior to working with Cascade Web Dveelopment, Shiftwise training staff managers were working with raw HTML and a legacy Front Page file to create the training calendar. Admins required IT support to upload new files when the calendar was ready for publishing. With the Evergreen Training Calendar Module, Shiftwise staff now completes a simple input form. The system captures the key data points, including Paypal integration, and everything is displayed for the user in a seamless and predictable layout. The application has already saved a great deal of time and money!
- Home Page Calls to Action: Shiftwise wanted to create a dynamic experience for their users. However, extensive use of flash technology to display critical information was not going to work. Load times, lack of flash plug-ins in hospitals and content management drove this decision. We leveraged our extensive experience in AJAX and JAVA script to build a very dynamic experience on the home page. Calls to action in the footer expand to display an array of applications: A form calculator, network search utility, compliance drop down menu and dynamic content.
Prior to making the move to Evergreen, the ShiftWise editing process was a complicated system of communicating and tracking the implementation of ideas between Marketing, Management, and IT. Now, the department with the need can hop right into the driver’s seat and bring their idea to life. Management and Marketing are now being supported by IT, without being dependent on them.
