About RotaCloud
RotaCloud is an online rota management and staff scheduling platform with a drag and drop interface for building rotas, as well as tools for managing time-off requests, tracking attendance, logging employee hours, and more. The cloud-based tool allows managers to build, share, and manage rotas, and ensure that staff and employers are on the same page at all times. RotaCloud can be accessed using any desktop or mobile device with internet connection, and the native mobile apps for Android and iOS allow employees to check their schedule and manage their shifts on-the-go.
The rota planning tools within RotaCloud allow managers and HR professionals to create staff schedules, using a drag and drop interface, taking into account relevant data including staff availability, hours worked to date, scheduled time off, and more. Users can manage and build rotas for multiple locations and an unlimited number of employees. Staff roles can be assigned and color-coded in order to aid users in understanding where staff shortages may occur, and conflicts can be avoided with automatic alerts when unavailable staff are added to the rota. In the event of recurring shift patterns, users can simply copy and paste rotas into the following weeks or months, and make edits as needed.
RotaCloud also facilitates time and attendance tracking by providing employees with self service staff logins, from where they can clock in and out of shifts, make time-off requests, input unavailability for shifts, swap shifts with colleagues, track annual leave, and more. Permissions can be managed to control which employees have access to certain functionalities, and approval workflows can be setup for routing requests. RotaCloud integrates with third party HR tools, PeopleHR and breatheHR, for synchronizing payroll reports and ensuring that employee records and leave entitlements are accurate across all systems.

Absolutely fantastic. Sales and aftercare are second to none
Pros
Sometimes creating rotas can be a hassle, but the algorithms of this software makes life easy and generates rotas with ease
Cons
It could take my job! Rotas are the one thing that takes time and patience, however this software eliminates that. It's a con, but a positive one. Sometimes as it's cloud, there is downtime

RotaCloud have been great to deal with. They have great documentation, and on the rare occasion we have needed support, it has been brilliant; fast and effective.
Pros
With a mix of full time, part time and seasonal staff working across 3 locations, preparing rotas was a nightmare. Rota Cloud makes this so much easier, faster and more accurate. It is incredibly flexible and easy to use and we can prepare in minutes, making sure the rotas are fair to staff, take account of holidays and other working restrictions, and monitor our labour costs as we do so.
Cons
There are some additionas we know are on the product road map we would like to see sooner, especially a daily hours total on the weekly rotas which would help us check we have the coverage we need, and a lock on current and old rotas to prevent accidental changes. However, there is virtually nothing we don't like about it.

Revolutionary - changed the way and I work and saved me a lot of time. No one has ever missed work because they were confused when they were working. This used to happen a lot before Rota Cloud - Priceless
Pros
That I can continually change the rota and staff are notified instantly
Cons
I don't think there is anything I don't like aobut Rota Cloud. I use it the way I want. There are so many more features that I simply don't need. But It's good to see they are there.
