Inspire Care SA testimonial
IN THEIR WORDS

What darcy says about RosterElf

1. getting started was easy — no hesitation, no learning curve

"Having worked with other platforms before, we didn't hesitate to use RosterElf."

— Darcy Wood

Inspire Care SA had tested other systems and knew exactly what didn't work — confusing interfaces, slow workflows, and steep learning curves that frustrated both managers and support workers.

RosterElf stood out because it felt intuitive from day one. Their team didn't need long training sessions or specialist knowledge. For a busy NDIS provider with varied skill levels across staff, the simplicity of the platform was a major win.

2. A simple app that everyone can use — even a 10-year-old

"The simplicity of the app makes it a dream for managers and staff… my 10-year-old daughter can even roster shift changes."

— Darcy Wood

This was one of the strongest compliments in the entire testimonial.

In disability support work, staff aren't IT professionals — they just need a tool that lets them get things done without frustration. Coordinators and support workers could check shifts, accept changes, manage updates, and communicate faster without needing extra training.

That translates to less wasted time and more client-facing care.

3. reliability they can trust — zero outages, zero downtime

"We've never experienced an outage, critical downtime or breaches. RosterElf is safe, secure and actually saves time."

— Darcy Wood

For NDIS providers, reliability isn't optional — it directly impacts participant support.

Inspire Care SA highlighted that RosterElf delivered perfect uptime, secure operations, no dropouts, no data issues, and more importantly, no disruptions to care. Compared to platforms that crashed or lagged, RosterElf became the dependable backbone of their scheduling and communication.

4. pricing that makes sense for NDIS providers

"Price point is exceptional."

— Darcy Wood

This matters in NDIS where margins are tight and admin systems can quickly become too expensive to justify.

RosterElf offered Inspire Care SA a premium platform without the premium price tag — giving them rostering, time & attendance, and HR functionality at a sustainable cost. For their team, it was a "no-brainer."

5. The phone app lets them run operations on the go

"The ability to use the phone app to run day-to-day tasks…"

— Darcy Wood

Support coordinators and managers aren't always at a desk. They're travelling, visiting participants, and managing multiple moving parts.

The mobile app allowed Inspire Care SA to approve changes, publish rosters, check coverage, confirm time & attendance, and resolve issues quickly.

6. A support team that actually listens and cares

"The team at RosterElf listen, they act, and they genuinely care about our business performing well."

— Darcy Wood

This was one of their strongest emotional statements.

For Inspire Care SA, RosterElf wasn't "just software." It was a partner invested in helping them succeed. They felt heard, supported, and valued — and saw that feedback turned into real improvements.

This level of service created trust and long-term confidence that RosterElf would continue meeting their operational and NDIS compliance needs.

7. A final verdict that says it all

"If you're looking for an app that makes sense, does what it's supposed to, saves time and is backed by a team passionate about making life easier — look no further."

— Darcy Wood

This line reads like a perfect final endorsement. It captures their experience in one message: it works, it's simple, it saves time, it's reliable, and the team behind it cares.

For Inspire Care SA, RosterElf wasn't an upgrade — it was a transformation.
