In our induction it takes minutes to show new members of staff the clocking in and out process and where to see their shifts, or if there are any available shifts they can pick up. I do the payroll within the business and it is simple to pull reports in order to get this done quickly. It also allows you to see things such as your retention rate and monitor time in lieu. We also use the email system within it as our main team communication avoiding using personal emails or setting up work emails for all staff. I have flagged issues with them before and these get acknowledged quickly and fixed or explained as to why it works that way. > > **Cons**: The app has less functionality than the computer log in, but that is to be expected. Things like booking holidays I would recommend my staff to sit down and use the web version as opposed to the app. But bar that no issues at all. > > We have used Planday since 2019. Before then we used clocking in cards (which get/ damaged) and people forget to bring them to work etc. We also worked from paper rota's which could be lost/ damaged/ not looked at in time. With Planday it is all on your phone so it is much easier for everyone to know what is going on and remember to clock in and out and check rotas. ----- ### "A practical scheduling tool that supports daily team planning" — 5.0/5 > **Mark Alexander Joel** | *January 26, 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: PlanDay offers good value for money for businesses that need a clear and structured way to handle scheduling and payroll preparation. The scheduling tools are straightforward and make it easy to plan shifts, adjust staffing levels, and keep track of worked hours. > > **Cons**: There is a noticeable learning curve in the beginning, especially for users who are new to digital scheduling tools. Occasionally, minor bugs or system issues appear, which can be frustrating during busy planning periods. > > Overall, PlanDay has been a useful and reliable tool for workforce planning. Once the team is familiar with the system, it supports efficient scheduling, clear communication, and better control over staffing and payroll processes. It’s a solid choice for teams looking to improve structure and collaboration in their daily planning. ----- ### "Planday all day" — 5.0/5 > **Zoey** | *June 18, 2015* > > **Pros**: Easy to use. Lots of opportunities to contact other employees and communication in general is user friendly > > **Cons**: None. We haven't had any problems with this platform and it is a great improvement from our former platforms. > > Plan day is what we use at my work and we have no difficulties with it. It's generally the best platform to use. ----- ### "Best functionality, but what's with the lagging??" — 4.0/5 > **Ivar** | *November 16, 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I researched vigorously for the best scheduling app for our restaurant chain and Planday has the largest set of functionalities that cover all our needs. > > **Cons**: The mobile app has long loading times. Our employees have iPhones and are used to swifting through mobile mobile apps with high speed. But this app sometimes loads 30 seconds, even 45 seconds while opening the app. We have contacted support, it has gone a little bit better, but employees still think it's a very slow app. > > So-so. There's no better functionality on the market but the loading times are horrible. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/145648/planday?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/145648/planday) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
