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.

  • Swap requests
  • Shift 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.

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.

Memos

Reach out from within RotaCloud

The Memos tool lets you send messages to your employees quickly and easily directly from your RotaCloud account.

Memos can be sent to your entire team or just select members of staff, and will arrive at their registered email address.
