We chose Rotageek for a number of reasons. Firstly, we wanted to work with a business that was small enough & personal enough, to really listen to our problems. We didn’t want to be “just another retail account” to a large Human Capital Management enterprise. On a related note, Rotageek is a really agile company - and that translates to how they develop their tech and make client-specific configurations. We chose Rotageek because we felt that we would be included right from the point of product development, meaning that the solution we get is exactly what we need. And finally, because of all of the different ways we were using to schedule, it would have been impossible for us to go directly from our current scheduling solutions to fully automated rostering. Rotageek’s Digital Scheduling solution was the perfect next step for us.

With such a quantum leap in tools from a traditional paper-based system into a fully online environment, adoption was always going to be a challenge. Rotageek’s simplicity has been a great help in bridging the gap to all our employees, even those who aren’t at home with apps. The team at Rotageek have also been a real asset to this adoption; their co-operative approach to problem solving, quick to help and to support with challenges and always keen to improve the system to meet our specific needs.

What we get is a great product at exceptional value.

RotaGeek offers a flexible user friendly platform for all of our employee scheduling needs. Its dynamic nature not only makes it a powerful management tool but also a favourite amongst staff who are able to check their schedules well in advance over multiple platforms.

I have gone from updating a spreadsheet every weekday to once a week, which takes a matter of mere minutes, saving approx. 2 hours a week in scheduling. This does not include the time spent manually calculating payroll, which is now done within a matters of seconds at the end of every week using RotaGeek.

Being able to easily view and manage my staff’s schedules across locations has given me great oversight of how my business doing. Staff also love the fact that they can get text messages and view the mobile app to see their schedules.

Rotageek allows our General Managers in shops to plan their staff rotas more precisely, with greater insight into what skill sets they need on the floor during busy periods. This allows our GMs and their teams to focus on delivering great service to our customers. We’re pleased to be rolling the Rotageek platform out to Pret shops internationally.

Rotageek has definitely helped us making sure we have the right people in the right place at the right time.
