“Scheduling used to be one of the most time consuming parts of my week. Now I can have it all set up in Connecteam, pushed out to the team, and all confirmed in one place.”

“Before Connecteam, everything was super manual. We used to get rosters on papers, juggle with, like, unavailabilities of everyone… Their rosters, they can clock in and clock out, super easily put their unavailabilities on.”

About the Connecteam Rostering app

An employee rostering app allows you to easily assign shifts and notify employees of their rosters.

Digitalising rostering allows you to input data, such as time-off requests, and view the roster according to job or employee to limit rostering errors. Reassigning previous shifts is also a time saver.

With a good rostering app, you can also communicate directly with your employees regarding each shift. Look for features such as adding a shift description, where you can add the location, specific tasks, and if any questions arise, you and your employee can directly message each other.

Yes. For businesses using Connecteam’s Small Business Plan, the rostering feature is 100% free for up to 10 users. If you have more than 10 users, you’ll still get a 14-day free trial to see if Connecteam’s rostering is right for you and your team. When the free trial ends, you can opt for the limited plan (which is free forever), or you can upgrade to a premium plan to get advanced functionality.

Connecteam’s employee rostering features streamline the way managers create rosters and how employees view their rosters.

Managers using Connecteam’s employee rostering feature can: 

  • View the rosters by job or employee
  • Assign a single shift or multiple shifts at once
  • Create templates to use daily, weekly, or monthly 
  • Quickly approve or deny employee rostering requests, such as time off
  • Set overtime and other roster limits before publishing 
  • Be notified of conflicts in rosters before publishing 
  • Create open shifts for qualified employees to claim 
  • Add notes to each shift such as tasks, location, and photos
  • Communicate directly with employees 
  • Notify employees of published rosters or changes directly to their mobile phones

From their mobile phone, employees can: 

  • Clock in and out 
  • Set and change their availability 
  • Request time off
  • Trade shifts with other employees, with admin approval 
  • Communicate directly with managers

Yes. Per shift, your employee will be able to view any tasks you assign them. Once an employee marks the task as complete, you will be notified. 

Shift tasks can be assigned to a specific employee, or to an entire team working the same shift.

Sure! You can connect your Connecteam shifts to your personal calendar – Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, etc..

Yes. The Connecteam rostering feature includes shift templates. You can also create your own daily, weekly, or even monthly templates to reuse again and again.

Yes! Connecteam gives you the option to customise your shift layers so that you can easily track and roster any of your resources or assets. For example, assign one of your trucks to a shift, and never find yourself without a vehicle for a job again.

Yes, with Connecteam’s Job Roster, your employees can inform you of days they are unavailable, days they prefer to work, and even set up these days to be repeated if they are regularly unavailable to work.

Yes. You can even set the claimed shifts to require management approval before they are assigned to an employee.
