An alternative to Excel shift planning when spreadsheets and chat become too hard to manage.

Shiftor connects scheduling, roster publishing, the employee app, QR attendance, and monthly hours in one workflow. You can start from an existing Excel plan and test one site or team first.

When Excel starts to break down

  • Multiple sites, locations, or teams need to be scheduled at the same time
  • Changes happen in chat and are manually copied later
  • Attendance and monthly hours are checked in separate sheets
  • It is unclear which roster is truly current

Excel roster vs. Shiftor

Current version

Less version confusion

Instead of sending files back and forth, admins and employees work from one shared scheduling state.

Attendance

QR instead of separate time tracking

QR clock-in and clock-out stay connected to shifts, worksites, and monthly hours.

Rollout

Pilot before a full switch

Start with an existing Excel plan, one site, or one small team.

What Shiftor changes

Scheduling

Shifts and worksites in one place

Plan employees, worksites, and shifts in the same operational workspace.

Employees

App access instead of unclear messages

Employees see their shifts in the app and can clock in and out with QR.

Control

Review monthly hours

Attendance, schedules, and monthly hours stay connected.

Switch safely without moving everything at once

The best start is not a big-bang migration. Begin with an existing Excel roster, one site, or one small team. Expand Shiftor only after the workflow fits.
