SimpleStaff provides employee scheduling software and related services for businesses with shift teams. Managers use the web interface to create and publish schedules, edit shifts by dragging them, reuse templates, and assign roles. Employees can use the iPhone and Android apps to update availability, request time off, swap shifts, and claim open shifts. Its time clock records clock-in and clock-out timestamps, tracks breaks, verifies GPS location, and supports timesheet approval. Approved timesheets can be exported for ADP, UKG, Dayforce, or as generic CSV; QuickBooks Online and Wagepoint are listed as coming soon. Published shifts can appear in employees’ Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook through personal feeds. The staff app is included with every plan, but needs an internet connection to load schedules live. The free plan covers 15 team members and one team. Paid plans start at $19 CAD/mo, and a 30-day trial is listed. The maker names restaurants, retail, clinics, hotels, gyms, and salons as industries served.
