About Planday
Planday's online employee scheduling tool enables businesses of almost any size and vertical to manage their workforce in an all-in-one platform through desktop, mobile and tablet.
Existing customers report saving 80% on their admin time and 5% of staffing costs with features such as drag & drop schedule creation and the ability to copy schedules week after week instead creating new schedules from scratch each time. With a comprehensive overview of your schedule, you can optimize your shifts to avoid excessive payroll costs. Planday’s location-specific clock-in function allows staff to clock-in from any device when they arrive to work, providing a full analysis of exactly how many hours are worked for more accurate payroll and revenue forecasts. Our integrated communication function also allows you to message employees in specific locations, while also enabling employees to swap shifts on the go.

Great software
Reviewed on 2018/08/15
Pros
Planday really reduces management time compiling the rota, it is easy for staff to manage holidays and good to help managers stick to weekly staffing budgets. The punch in/out function again reduces admin time for paper timesheets and reduces the possibility of fraud.
Cons
It would be great to be able to set parameters and then it generate the rota for you, hopefully this will be developed in time!

Best functionality, but what's with the lagging??
Reviewed on 2023/11/16
So-so. There's no better functionality on the market but the loading times are horrible.

Pros
I researched vigorously for the best scheduling app for our restaurant chain and Planday has the largest set of functionalities that cover all our needs.
Cons
The mobile app has long loading times. Our employees have iPhones and are used to swifting through mobile mobile apps with high speed. But this app sometimes loads 30 seconds, even 45 seconds while opening the app. We have contacted support, it has gone a little bit better, but employees still think it's a very slow app.

Don't get tied in

Totally disappointed with their complete lack of customer care. Some systems trust they are good enough and don't tie you in with a contract but instead have a rolling month by month contract. PlanDay ties you in from the moment you are in discussions with them and it's a minimum 12 month contract, which they do not let you out of, even if you have told them you don't want to go ahead 6 weeks before it even begins.
Pros
We liked the sales person. He was very aimable and helpful
Cons
Charging us for what we did not use. We signed a contract but our staff subsequently told us they already used PlanDay in other jobs and it was nto good. We cancelled 6 weeks before the contract was due to start but they charged us for 12 months anyway. We asked to speak to a senior manager. Instead they set up a Direct Debit to take the full amount of money in one go, without our permission. Outrageous behaviour. If they had had a better system, we would not have cancelled.

Saves me a full days work

Payday use to be a full day adventure, trying to keep track of 30 employees in an Excel sheet, calculating their supplements according to the time of work and subtracting any personnel goods. After switching to Planday payday now takes roughly an hour, and that’s only because I double check everything to be sure. I still can’t believe it’s that easy, but it is.
Pros
I like that it is so easy for our employees to put a shift up for sale/trade, and we no longer have to note down who switched with who. However, we still have the security of having to confirm the switch before it’s activated. My favorite part though, is the compatibility with our pay system. It saves me hours
Cons
In the process of confirming a switch between to employees, you can’t see whether the new employee has a shift before or after the switch, as you can when you assign a shift. Normally the system will mark them as red, because they are already scheduled to work that day. This doesn’t happen with switches, which can cause double shifts for a person.
Response from Planday
Thank you for your feedback. I will send you an email as an answer to the cons, since it should not be possible to swap a shift, if you are already in the schedule that day.
