Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Homebase works best for small teams with straightforward scheduling needs. Before shortlisting, verify that the app's weekly availability settings match your staffing model—some managers report needing to set availability daily instead, which adds friction if your business operates on fixed weekly rotations. Test the navigation during your demo, particularly the ...Read more

Very effective for communication with a whole team and to be able to view the whole team’s shifts.

What do you like best? The ability to view the schedule of the entire team, including time taken off, allows for easier allowance of switching shifts or getting cover. What do you dislike? Unfortunately, when setting a schedule, it is set by time unavaiable rather than time available. This means having to enter multiple times if unavailability if you are only available for a shift in the middle of the day, rather than being able to just inform the employer of abailable shifts. ...

Great for small businesses

What do you like best? I like the ease of scheduling employees and the ability to easily copy or move the current employee schedule. What do you dislike? Only General managers seem to be able to see the entire schedule for all departments, which makes it difficult when staff may be used in different departments but you do not want to accidentally schedule them overtime. Recommendations to others considering the product Great for small businesses with not too many departments. Not ...

Time Managment

What do you like best? I like that employees can clock in and out freely. I like that it alerts you to let you know when you shift is to start, when your break is to end. It allows them to clock in from their phone, or the iPad we have in the office complete with a picture of them captured at the time of clock in. This allows management to verify it was truly that employee and not a friend helping out someone who is late to work (also provides a laugh with some of the pictures taken It is ...
