Can I start using Shiftbase right away?

Yes — setting up Shiftbase is effortless. In just a few minutes you can create an account, set up your schedules using templates and drag-and-drop tools, and invite employees to submit availability, swap shifts, and register their hours.

Can I try Shiftbase for free?

Absolutely — you can start with a free trial (no credit card needed). During this period, you can try manual scheduling, explore mobile access, open shifts, and experience how intuitive the app is.

How does Shiftbase help prevent scheduling conflicts?

Shiftbase flags conflicts like overlapping shifts and violations of working-hour regulations (like the ATW) in real time. Its tools—like availability visibility and smart alerts—help avoid last-minute scrambles.

Can employees claim open shifts or swap shifts themselves?

Yes — through the mobile (and web) app, employees can claim open shifts or propose swaps. Managers can require approval or allow direct claims. All actions trigger automatic updates.

Can Shiftbase help control labor costs while planning?

Definitely — you can plan by hours or labor budget, and Shiftbase displays wage costs, surcharges, and labor percentages against expected revenue as you build the schedule.

Can I manage schedules for multiple locations from one system?

Yes — Shiftbase supports multi-location and multi-team scheduling from one central platform, while employees at each site still get their local schedule and updates instantly.

Is there a mobile app for scheduling on the go?

Yes — the mobile app (iOS and Android) lets you view and modify schedules, clock in/out with geolocation or IP restrictions, manage leave requests, claim open shifts, and receive real-time notifications.

Can I generate reports and insights for better planning?

Yes — Shiftbase provides both standard and detailed reports on hours worked, wage costs, productivity, and staffing gaps. You can export data to inform strategic decisions.

Does Shiftbase help prevent time tracking errors or fraud?

Yes. Geofencing and location/IP restrictions ensure employees can only clock in or out from approved locations. Plus, GPS logging is done at clock events to preserve privacy.

How does Shiftbase reduce admin time and improve accuracy?

By automating key tasks: shift swaps, absence tracking, compliance checks, and payroll data are handled efficiently. The system reduces manual errors and frees your team to focus on what matters.
