All-in-one shift planning

Everything in one place

RotaCloud puts the information you need front and centre as you build your rotas — no more checking calendars or trawling through WhatsApp messages.

Staff availability
Employee availability is shown on the rota as you plan shifts, giving you a clear picture of who’s free to work, and reducing the need for last-minute changes.
Contracted hours
RotaCloud automatically tallies your employees’ hours as you add shifts, showing you whether your staff are over or under their contracted hours.
Holidays & leave
Annual leave is clearly displayed on the rota to help you plan ahead — as well as avoid accidentally assigning shifts to staff who are on holiday.
Days off
Mark days that employees don’t work — such as weekends for your office staff — on the rota, so you aren’t giving them shifts on their days off.

Copying tools & templates

Build & copy complex rota patterns

Whether planning rolling rotas, 2-on-2-off shift patterns, or scheduling shifts ad hoc, you can do it with RotaCloud.
  • Copy single weeks & months with just a click.
  • Duplicate blocks of shifts for some or all employees for any period.
  • Create templates and apply them across any date range.

Customisation options

Build it your way

Whether you’re a fresh-faced SME or a multinational business, RotaCloud can be tailored just the way you like it.

  • Unlimited rotas & locations

    Build as many rotas as you need for each department, site, or whatever works for you.
  • Customisable roles & rates

    Specify which employees can work each role, and assign specific role rates per hour, or per shift.
  • Group & organise your team

    Make your rota your own by grouping and ordering your employees however you like — such as by role, department, sub-team, or seniority.

Open shifts

Find cover fast

Need to fill a gap in your schedule? Let RotaCloud do the hard work for you.

Create an open shift and all eligible staff will receive a notification that there’s a shift up for grabs. RotaCloud will let you know when the shift has been filled, and automatically update the rota.

Shift notes & day notes

Give your team all the info they need

Use shift notes and day notes to communicate important information quickly and easily — putting it right there on the schedule.

RotaCloud’s made the rota-planning procedure so much easier than it used to be — it frees up my time so that I can do other things.
