How to choose

Match scheduling to your operation

Compare shift-scheduling tools with your staffing needs and how far ahead you plan. Labor forecasting can help you assess how a product handles expected staffing demand.

Look at location limits before choosing if your organization works across sites. A tool's location limit may affect how you organize schedules.

Check time-clock options

Compare the listed time-clock methods with how employees record their work time. Consider whether staff need to clock in through a web browser or a mobile app.

Web, iOS and Android availability can matter for teams that work away from a desk. Check the platforms listed for the product you are considering.

Confirm payroll connections

Review payroll integrations against the payroll service your organization already uses. The board compares payroll integrations, but the specific connection you need should be confirmed with the product.

A public API may offer another way for software to connect, but an API is a published interface, not a promise that a particular payroll system is supported.

Compare price and access

Check whether a product has a free plan or a free trial, and read the pricing terms before signing up. A trial is temporary access; it is not the same as an ongoing free plan.

Consider where the software needs to run: the board includes web, mobile, desktop and API platform marks. Confirm that the platforms and connections you need are available.

Questions

What should I compare in workforce management software?

Compare shift scheduling, time-clock methods, labor forecasting, payroll integrations, mobile apps and location limits against your workplace needs.

Is a free trial the same as a free plan?

No. A free trial gives temporary access, while a free plan is an ongoing no-cost option. Check the product's terms for details.

What does the signal score mean?

It is a score out of 10 based on maker-published information about use, public API access, documentation, open-source code and a free tier.

What does a public API mark tell me?

It indicates that a product has a public API, a published interface for connecting software. It does not confirm a specific integration.

Which platforms should I check?

Check whether the product supports the web, iOS, Android, macOS or Windows platforms your team uses. The board also lists API availability.
