Frequently Asked Questions

What is employee scheduling software?

Employee scheduling software is a digital tool that replaces spreadsheets and whiteboards for creating, distributing, and managing employee work schedules. Modern platforms like Senzii use automation to match workers to shifts based on skills, availability, and labor law requirements — cutting schedule creation time by up to 80% and eliminating costly coverage gaps.

How much does employee scheduling software cost?

Pricing varies widely. Basic tools start at $1-3 per user per month but often lack compliance and automation features. Enterprise platforms charge $8-15 per user. Senzii is $5 per seat per month with all features included: auto-matching, compliance alerts, mobile apps, and analytics. No setup fees, no contracts, free trial available.

Can employee scheduling software prevent overtime?

Yes. Senzii tracks cumulative hours per employee in real time and flags any shift assignment that would push a worker into overtime before the schedule is published. Managers see a running total and can redistribute hours to stay within budget — typically reducing overtime costs by 25-40%.

Is employee scheduling software compliant with labor laws?

Compliance depends on the tool. Senzii includes configurable rules for break requirements, maximum consecutive work days, daily and weekly hour limits, predictive scheduling laws, minor work restrictions, and certification expiration. The system flags violations before schedules go live and maintains an audit trail for reporting.

Does employee scheduling software work on mobile?

Yes. Senzii is a mobile-first web app that works on any smartphone or tablet without installation. Employees view their schedule, request shift swaps, submit time-off, clock in/out with GPS verification, and receive real-time push notifications. Managers can build and publish schedules from their phone.

Can I import my existing employee data?

Yes. Senzii supports CSV import for employee profiles, roles, certifications, and existing shift patterns. You can also create reusable schedule templates for recurring rotations and apply them with one click — so the transition from spreadsheets takes minutes, not weeks.
