So the first site to pick up RotaBoard was from Japan. It gave our site it’s first big spike in visitors and users. We hadn’t really thought about it beforehand but it seems like the system is working fine with Japanese characters.

The Japanese tech site 100 shiki made a post about us and within the next two days we got around 3000 visitors from east asia. Read their review of RotaBoard here.

I gave up pretty quickly and my attempts of using online translation services didn’t help me understand what they writting about us. Luckily enough Katsumi was kind enough to translate it for us – Thanks, Kat!

You know the shift schedule charts that say who is doing what and display your work schedule.

Is there any web based shift schedule program that does that? There is Rota Board! It is AJAX based and you can easily create a shift schedule.

These kind of features are available in regular online calendars, however, they usually have unnecessary features and are not simple enough.

It’s time for people to value simplicity and the benefits of using software that serves one purpose instead of using software that claims it can do anything. People want customized, small software that serves their individual needs.

Their comments: Looking at Rota Board, it seems there are still many convenient features missing.

We have been testing RotaBoard with English and Danish caracters and it works fine but if you use the system with your native keys and experience problems let us know.
