  1. Deputy

    Best for Shift-based teams in hospitality, retail and healthcare

    Deputy suits shift-based businesses, from single locations to enterprises, that want scheduling and time clocking at published per-user prices starting at $5 per month. The main trade-off is that payroll, HR, messaging and analytics are paid add-ons, and SSO and a sandbox are limited to the Pro plan.

    When I Work is a mobile-first scheduling and time-tracking tool for hourly, shift-based teams, priced publicly from $2.50 per user per month with no setup fee or contract. It is focused on scheduling and time, so payroll runs through integrations, and there is no free plan.
