Shiftura
What it is
Shiftura is shift scheduling software for small and midsize businesses with hourly teams. Managers can build and publish schedules, using employee-submitted availability, and the team is notified automatically. Employees can offer shifts to coworkers, who claim them for manager approval; managers can approve swaps individually or set rules to automatically approve qualifying requests. Shiftura tracks how hours, weekends and nights are distributed, and sends email notifications about new schedules and approved swaps. It serves restaurants, retail, childcare, fitness and hospitality. The Free plan costs nothing and supports up to five employees. Team costs $32.50 a month for up to 25 employees, while Pro costs $65.83 a month for up to 75. Team and Pro include a 14-day free trial requiring a card; users are not charged until it ends and can cancel anytime. Employees can use Shiftura on phones without downloading an app. It does not include time tracking or a time clock.
