A mobile device with three notifications showing that next week's shifts have been published, a shift swap has been approved, and a leave request has been approved.

Communicating with your team has never been easier.

Two notifications on a phone screen, the first is informing that shift updates have been made and the second confirming a shift swap request.

Automatic notifications

Inform your team of every change, automatically

Every time you add or update a shift, relevant staff are immediately notified, so they always know when they’re next working.

  • Rota updates
  • New open shifts
  • Swap requests
  • Shift reminders
  • Clock-in reminders

Push, e-mail, SMS

Be sure they got the message

Employees can choose from push, email, or SMS notifications — so you can be confident that they always have the most up-to-date information.

Cloud-based rota software

RotaCloud is accessible on any compatible device with an internet connection, so your staff will always have the most up-to-date version of their rota.

RotaCloud’s made it very simple for our staff to find out what time they start and where they will be working, especially with the app and push notifications.

Shift acknowledgement

Extra peace of mind

Ask your staff to confirm that they’ve seen their latest rota with shift acknowledgement.

Each time you make a change, you’ll see on the rota which shifts have or haven’t been acknowledged.
