About the Connecteam Scheduling app
An employee scheduling app allows you to easily assign shifts and notify employees of their schedules.
Digitalizing scheduling allows you to input data, such as time-off requests, and view the schedule according to job or employee to limit scheduling errors. Reassigning previous shifts is also a time saver.
With a good scheduling app, you can also communicate directly with your employees regarding each shift. Look for features such as adding a shift description, where you can add the location, specific tasks, and if any questions arise, you and your employee can directly message each other.
Yes. For businesses using Connecteam’s Small Business Plan, the scheduling feature is 100% free for up to 10 users.

When the free trial ends, you can opt for the limited plan (which is free forever), or you can upgrade to a premium plan to get advanced functionality.
