MakeShift Software Features

Time and Attendance

MakeShift project management software is a complete time-and-attendance solution that goes beyond simple software for staff scheduling. Employees can use their phones or a dedicated device on-site to clock in and out, and accurate timesheets will be made automatically. In addition, MakeShift software lets you send payroll data to Excel and several well-known payroll providers.

Quick Approvals

With MakeShift software, you can spend less time making schedules and more time running your business and managing your team. With the approvals feature, you can quickly assign open shifts and permit a shift swap or time off. Schedule changes don't always happen when you're at your desk, so MakeShift Live will let you know when requests are made and allow you to approve them right from your phone.

Team Communication

The MakeShift employee scheduling solution ensures that managers and workers all have the same information. The online scheduling software and the mobile app update scheduled shifts, availability, and other real-time information. You can also set up alerts to inform you when anything changes.

good shift tracking with instant notifications

Pros

I love how I get notifications whenever my schedule changes. I can quickly check my upcoming shifts, get updates and even see available shifts all directly from the Dashboard. It's so much clearer, especially with the weekly summary.

Cons

As a shift worker, it's annoying that I can't choose multiple dates at once for adding availability. I have to pick each date manually which takes longer.
