Detailed Review
Findmyshift is a drag and drop employee scheduler that its own about page describes as the world's first web-based tool of its kind, launched in 2004.
A manager builds the rota by pointing, clicking, copying and pasting, and staff follow it in iOS and Android apps with shift reminders and change notifications. Time clocking, time off management and labour cost reporting sit alongside the scheduler, and the time clock station is free for everyone. Integrations listed on the site include Xero, Slack, Lightspeed, Square, BambooHR and Google Workspace.
The terms name Findmyshift B.V., a company incorporated in the Netherlands and registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under KvK number 76110168, at Panamalaan 5H in Amsterdam.
The about page says the service moved to Amazon Web Services in 2012, and the pages checked name no region, so the cloud is American even though the vendor is Dutch. Support is staffed on British hours, midnight to 10pm BST on weekdays, and no security certification is stated on the pricing, terms or about pages that were checked.
Findmyshift prices per team, not per employee. Free costs EUR 0 for up to 5 team members and one manager. Starter is EUR 24 per month, or EUR 21 billed yearly, for 20 team members.
Business is EUR 37 per month, or EUR 32 yearly, for 100 team members, and Enterprise is EUR 74 per month, or EUR 65 yearly, for 300 team members. All features are free for the first three months with no credit card, and plans are pay as you go with no contract. Above 300 people on one team the vendor asks you to get in touch.
