  2. Deputy

    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.

  3. When I Work

    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.

How the score works

What matters for manufacturing

  1. Shift and differential rules

    Night and weekend premiums require configurable logic.

  2. Fixed terminals

    Plant floors often rely on badge or biometric clocks.

  3. Rounding transparency

    Rounding must not systematically underpay employees.

  4. Labor distribution

    Costs are allocated to lines, orders or cost centers.
