- What is scheduling software?
Scheduling software is a kind of business software used by small and medium-sized enterprises to plan staffing rotas, holiday requests, shift patterns and payroll. Rather than using whiteboards or spreadsheets to plan rotas, using a specialised app makes planning shifts much more efficient and eliminates errors.
You can share rotas with staff via an app, email or text. Medium and small business scheduling software also includes many other features to help with people planning, including things like shift swapping, holiday requests or organising sick leave replacement.
- Why is Deputy the best scheduling app for small businesses?
Deputy was built by small business owners just like you who wanted to plan rotas more effectively. We designed our employee scheduling software for small businesses to include everything managers and business owners need to plan shifts, monitor staff costs, allocate tasks and more. That gives you more time to focus on the things that really matter.
Since launching in 2008, we’ve helped thousands of small businesses in the UK and worldwide to save time and money with fast, efficient and productive scheduling tools that also connect to their preferred payroll systems. And Deputy does more than ‘just’ rota planning. We’ve built powerful HR tools that mean you attract and retain the best staff, improve employee onboarding processes, and can use staff engagement and feedback tools that help boost morale.
