What is Papershift?

Papershift is an employee scheduling and time tracking software which enables users to plan, manage and automate shift and roster schedules and projects, as well as plan resources and manage absences anytime, anywhere via any internet-enabled device, including desktops, tablets, laptops, and mobiles. Native iOS and Android mobile apps give users the flexibility to manage schedules and track time on-the-go.

Papershift provides users with the tools to plan and track time online. Users can create and manage employee schedules in just a few clicks from the online scheduling calendar. The central roster allows managers to allocate individuals to free shifts, but employees can also choose the shifts they want to work. With automatic shift assignment functionality, Papershift can fill employee schedules automatically. The platform enables users to track and manage absences and vacations, as well as working schedules.

Papershift facilitates online, app-based and mobile time tracking, allowing employees to clock in/out online via a computer, mobile or other fixed device with signature or PIN verification. Users can set up their own time tracking policies and access accurate employee clock in/clock out records complete with break information. Reporting tools give users actionable insight into business and employee performance. Papershift also supports payroll accounting for all employees.

Pros
“The ease of use, the great support (chat or by telephone) and the possibility to make changes in the shiftplan and inform the staff simultaneously without the need to use group chats or so on.”
“This product is user friendly and I like the feature where you can be able to delete and readd.”
“IPad time clock is amazing. Setting up is complex (not complicated): until all things are configured - how are breaks handled.”
Cons
“There is no users manual, only a few videos which don't even cover all basic features. There are so many options that you can get lost trying to figure out how to adjust the tool.”
“The main problem was to get all informations to a single point. With Papershift we have the users and times with Vacations on one place.”
“Missing mobile and tablet app functionalifies.”
