### "\[sensitive content hidden\], the team, and the software are amazing."

May 9, 2025

5.0

Overwhelmingly positive. Both software and the team behind it. \[sensitive content hidden\] dealt with any issues promptly, supported us throughout the process, and displayed a good knowledge of the software.

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] and the team were super helpful and supportive throughout the process. Any issues that did arrive we're promptly addressed. The software is intuitive and sleek.

Cons

It was a huge upgrade for us, but remember it is a software where you get more out of it directly proportionate to the amount you engage with it. Same with any new piece of software which offers a lot.

### "Great Software!"

January 15, 2025

5.0

Overall really good experience, it makes scheduling very easy. As well as keeping staff files and accounting for holiday allowance and monitoring wage cost.

Pros

It's very easy to use, user friendly and perfect for shift scheduling for complex hospitality venues.

Cons

That you can't download a digital copy of the rota, e.g. pdf. You can either view it online, on the app or print it, but sometimes it would be useful to be able to send a pdf copy to the finance department or the directors so they can double check things.

January 15, 2025

5.0

From the customer service to using it daily, its very easy and the team are so helpful. It's an idiot proof system.

Pros

I love the cost control/ sign off and the budgets feature! That really sold it for a small business like us!

Cons

There is nothing I would change about rotaready.

### "We love Rota Ready!"

November 13, 2024

5.0

Pros

From an employee perspective, the staff are always happy with how easy it is to view their shifts and also book their holiday. From a management point of view, we've never had a service that collates both HR, payroll, holiday and rotas in one place as well as this one. We're able to draw accurate figures for our wage %s which has improved productivity immensely within the company.

Cons

Sometimes, figures vary from page to page on the site. However, after trouble shooting with he staff, there is usually a reason for it and it's fixable.

January 2, 2025

5.0

Onboarding with \[sensitive content hidden\] was excellent. Ongoing support as we have been setting up has been spot on also.

Pros

Significantly streamlines HR management. Support is excellent.

Cons

Not necessarily a con, but the level of configuration that is available may result in a steeper learning curve for some users.

### "Indispensable tool"

August 20, 2024

5.0

RotaReady has become an indispensable tool for us, helping us streamline operations and keep our team happy. We highly recommend it to any Hotel, Bar & restaurant looking to optimize their scheduling process!

Pros

RotaReady has truly transformed the way we manage our business. As a busy establishment, efficient scheduling is crucial, and RotaReady delivers on every front. The platform is intuitive, making it easy for us to create, adjust, and manage rotas with minimal effort. Our staff love the mobile access, which allows them to check their shifts and request changes on the go. What stands out most is how RotaReady has improved our team's communication and overall morale. With clear visibility of schedules and fair shift distribution, everyone feels more organised and valued. Plus, the customer support is exceptional—they're always quick to assist with any queries we have.

Cons

Nothing in particular. Generally straightforward.

### "A Rota System That Does It All!"

July 25, 2024

5.0

Overall I am a massive fan of RotaReady, I use it near enough everyday whether that be for simple shift scheduling or for more advanced features like inputting forecasts for upcoming rotas, It truly has it all. I have used a variety of different Rota systems in the past yet none are as versatile as RotaReady nor are they as effective at solving simple tasks, for example the attendance issue feature which automatically catches any and all discrepancies between the rota and staff clock ins/outs has personally helped me save hours upon hours of admin time.

Pros

Me personally my favourite thing about RotaReady would have to be the Cost Control feature. This feature allows us to track our staff costs and our labour percentages in real time with tremendous accuracy.

Cons

I don’t believe this is a massive drawback but I think the document section within RotaReady could do with some minor improvements to help bring it up to the standard of the rest of the system.

### "Time Saver"

July 19, 2024

4.0

Their customer service is very good and quick. We have started to utilise more features overtime, such as Staff Documents, Onboarding, & Asset Tracking.

Pros

The upgrade to Rotaready is night and day when compared to manually building them on Excel. We have 70+ employees who work in different areas across the building and we prepare a separate rota for each area. Previously we were constantly checking to ensure we hadn't used the same employee twice in different areas. Then checking our holiday calendar to ensure they were available, then manually counting up their hours to ensure they got the correct amount. Rotaready handles all this for us.

Cons

It is clunky to manually add breaks and shifts if an employee forgets to do this. There is a feature to automatically deduct breaks, but for accuracy, we prefer that staff clock in and out for them.

Review Source

Response from The Access Group

August 16, 2024

Thanks for the kind words! It's great to read. Breaks can be tricky to manage at times. If you don't wish for breaks to be automated, Rotaready will depend on the team registering their breaks. It should only take a couple of clicks to add in retrospectively if someone forgets. Please do drop our support team a note at a convenient time to see if we can help!

### "Great product and software"

July 10, 2024

5.0

Great! We moved over from another rota system and it cut out so much work for us.

Pros

Rota Ready had a very personal approach and the support was great when we set this up. The software is great and made managing our three coffee shops much easier. The product as a whole has everything that we need.

Cons

We didn't experience anything negative and the staff were very responsive to any questions.

Switched from

[Deputy](https://www.capterra.com/p/167811/Deputy/)

We needed a system that could link to our shop sales, accrue holidays, and allow staff to check in and out on the app. Rota Ready has everything in one place and also allows us to manage our staff contracts.

### "Rota-Complete! "

July 15, 2024

4.0

I've come into the business quite late on to the integration and operational execution however, I'm starting to dig into the system and find it's technology mind-blowing.

Pros

User functionality is very easy. The team are always on hand when needed and always have the right answers! The integrations are second to none also!

Cons

I think some of the reporting could be a little bit better rather than having to download the data, maybe give options to filter better within the system itself.

August 16, 2024

Thanks for taking the time to review Rotaready, Morgan! We'd love to hear your thoughts on reporting in a little more detail. In a quieter moment, it'd be great if you could drop our support team a note with the specifics of what you're referring to!

June 25, 2024

5.0

Overall a fantastic experience, have been using RotaReady for about two years now and will continue to do so indefinitely as it ticks all of the right boxes for us and does a good job.

Pros

We love the ease of use of the software at RotaReady. Many of our users are not overly technical, so it's great to have a tool that every member of the team can be comfortable with using.

Cons

Some of the user interface could be modernised in places, occasionaly clunky elements like buttons could be improved in certain places.

It really helps us with our rota and enables all the team to know exactly where they are and when.

### "Easy, Efficient with a solid UI"

August 7, 2023

5.0

Incredibly good experience so far, as stated RR is the easiest and most modern system I've worked with in 10 years in hospitality. The customer service team is very friendly and knowledgeable. The ability for our staff to simply login through their apps on their phones makes it easily implementable with little pushback.

Pros

A very good software, Rotaready is incredibly easy to use, coupled with a great catalogue of training sessions and incredibly quick responses from the support team. Creating rotas is easy and the green corridor is up there with some of the best and more expensive systems that I've used. A very modern rota and HR system

Cons

Unable to easily see an individual's latenesses across a large period of time. But is something that is looking to be implemented

Thank you for your positive review, Danny! We loved reading about how well your team have adopted Rotaready and that you're finding it so slick and easy to use.

To your point on the lateness report, watch this space, because our new attendance and lateness reporting is coming very soon!

### "Fantastic product"

February 9, 2024

5.0

Excellent. When setting the system up I was able to liaise with someone who took my personal requirements into account. The product felt very bespoke.

Pros

I moved over to this rota system from a rival system. It is fantastic because it integrates with my till system and allows me to plan my staffing more effectively. It is easy to use and there are never any issues with posting shifts out to staff.

Cons

My main criticism would be that there is no way to manage the rotas from my phone without using a browser (which is cumbersome). I would love one day to have a managment version of the app so this would be easier.

### "Very Disappointed"

April 29, 2024

3.0

Very disappointed. We were expecting a pleasant user experience being able to manage our rotas, holidays and other abscence with ease as well as gaining valuable management information on staff productivity and other KPI's; unfortunately Rota Ready has failed in all but first of these; at best it's a useful rota management and clocking on tool. However for ease of use in providing management information it's appaling and over complicated.

Pros

Pricing was competitive, features and integration with POS systems looked useful.

Cons

Rota Ready tries to be too many things to too many people and for a small independent business it fails miserably in terms of it's ease of use for managemnt purposes; while the functionality may all be there it is over complicated (or perhaps just poorly designed?) to the point where nothing is easy; expect to invest a considerable amount of time exchanging texts with the online support team; nothing about Rota Ready is intuitive and everything requires expert working knowledge to set up and or understand. Finally featuresyou would expect either don't exist or simply don't work as you would expect!

Reason for choosing Rotaready Evo

I was expected it would provide functionality to manage staff holiday and improved management information.

Hi Arran, ah, it's really disappointing to hear your experience hasn't matched our other reviews here.
