About RotaCloud

RotaCloud is the workforce management software that makes work simple for growing businesses. From building rotas and managing time off requests to tracking attendance and running payroll, this cloud-based system ensures that staff and employers are always on the same page. No more shift mix-ups. No more pay errors. No more miscommunication.

By using RotaCloud's drag-and-drop interface, managers and admins can easily create, edit, and share rotas with a real-time view of labour costs, staff availability, and holidays. Employers and employees alike can access RotaCloud via desktop or mobile, allowing everyone constant visibility and control of shits and requests on the go.

Automatic timesheets record accurate attendance data and patterns and make payroll a breeze. Holiday accrual is automatically calculated and leave requests are submitted, reviewed, and managed all from one place. Labour cost control allows managers to stay on budget and avoid under or overstaffing.

But it isn't just employers who benefit. With RotaCloud, staff have constant visibility of schedules, can submit shift swaps and leave requests without awkward conversations, and can even set their availability to fit their work life around their personal life. By offering additional shifts to pick up, too, employees can feel more in control and experience a far better work-life balance.

When you can do this much from one system, saving an average of 170 hours of admin a year in the process, it pays to ditch the spreadsheets.

Shifts, sorted.


Key benefits of RotaCloud

  • Create unlimited rotas for unlimited roles and locations. View rotas by week or month, and use the drag-and-drop interface or copy-and-paste patterns to build your staff schedules. The calendar layout allows users to see gaps and avoid conflicts, keeping them in full control.

  • Need to change a shift? Not a problem. Edit with ease and update your rota with just a click, automatically notifying staff via SMS, email, or mobile notifications to ensure no one misses important updates. It's the same in reverse, too. Staff can submit leave or shift swap requests, automatically notifying the relevant manager.

  • Fill gaps fast when needing cover. Instead of phone calls, WhatsApp messages, or photos of the rota, employees can claim open shifts and arrange shift swaps through the app. Once accepted, the rota automatically updates - just like that.

  • Employees have full transparency and access to the rota and leave calendar. Staff's unique login to the self-service portal allows them to make leave requests, view their schedules and remaining leave entitlements, report sickness, and more. They can even set their availability to help them arrange their work life around their personal life, not the other way around.

  • Track employee hours when they clock in and out through the mobile app or fixed terminal. Data filters automatically to timesheets, flagging any lateness or overtime, and tracking any attendance patterns in reports - making payroll a breeze.

  • Swap the spreadsheets, lost messages, and calculator for hassle-free holiday management. RotaCloud automatically calculates holiday accrual for the hours worked, keeps all leave requests and history in one place, and allows staff to use time off in lieu.

  • Stay compliant and reduce overstaffing, understaffing, and conflicts with RotaCloud’s color-coded rota and alerts. Easily see which teams or areas are under or overstaffed due to colour-coding. Real-time labour costs keep managers on budget while they schedule and notifications alert them if they try to schedule an employee when they're unavailable.

    Can take a while to get to grips with as it can do so much, but that's more a personal issue than a RotaCloud one

    It is an absolutely great product, easy to use and when I get stuck always quick friendly advice. I use it every day and couldn't run the business without it. I have not tried other products in this field but I haven't had to because it does almost everything I want and with the regular updates I am sure the things that I might want will come sooner or later. I wish all software companies worked as well as the Rotacloud team do.

    Pros

    Easy to use, useful updates of things that you didn't know you needed but end up using all the time

    Cons

    I haven't really got any dislikes. It does what it says.
