Shiftbase
Shiftbase combines staff scheduling, time tracking, and workforce administration for businesses that run shifts. Schedulers can use templates, copy weeks, assign shifts by skill, and flag conflicts with leave or other shifts before publishing. Employees can claim open shifts and suggest swaps for manager approval. They can clock in and out through the mobile app, on desktop, or on a shared tablet; recorded hours are available for approval and payroll export. The iOS and Android app is included with every plan. Premium adds labour cost targets, budget management, skill-based scheduling, and auto-scheduling marked as early access. Its marketplace lists 51 integrations, including AFAS, Lightspeed, Nmbrs, and Connexie, though some require the App Center+ add-on. The free plan is limited to 15 employees, one department, and five teams. Monthly plans are Free at €0.00, Basic at €30.00, Premium at €72.00, and Enterprise at €336.00.
