Why spreadsheets and group texts no longer cut it for scheduling
In a restaurant, retail shop, salon, or clinic, too much can end up in separate places: shifts in spreadsheets, time-off requests over text, overtime in another file. That costs hours, creates miscommunication, and makes payroll more error-prone.
EasyTeamPlan brings scheduling, time off, and hours into one cloud app — built for teams of 2+ that do not need heavy HR software, just a schedule that works day to day.
Features
Shift and staff scheduling for restaurants, retail, and services
Whether you run a café, a boutique, a salon, or a clinic, EasyTeamPlan combines shift scheduling, team communication, and time tracking in one interface — with no training weeks and no IT department.
Team app for schedules and requests
Your team sees shifts and hours anytime on their phone. Time off, availability, and shift-swap requests are submitted right in the app — no email back-and-forth.
Hours, overtime, and PTO tracking
Scheduled vs. actual hours, PTO balances, and overtime are tracked automatically — including manual edits and flags for hours over 40 in a workweek (FLSA).
Multiple locations and holidays
Manage locations, shift templates, and holiday calendars centrally — ideal for businesses with more than one site.
Approve time-off and availability
Requests show up right on the planning board. You decide in context — with a clear, auditable history of every change.
Fair Workweek & audit-ready records
Role-based access, advance schedule posting, and recordkeeping help you support overtime and predictive scheduling workflows.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about employee scheduling
Answers about employee scheduling, staff scheduling, time tracking, PTO, and pricing for US small businesses.
What is employee scheduling software?+
Employee scheduling software, also called staff scheduling software, helps businesses plan shifts, manage time off and availability, and track hours worked. Instead of spreadsheets and group texts, owners and staff share one current schedule — in the browser and on the phone.
Is scheduling software worth it for a small business?+
Yes — usually once you have around five employees. The time spent on manual scheduling adds up fast, and mistakes with PTO or overtime can easily cost more than a simple monthly tool. In restaurants and retail with changing shifts, cloud scheduling saves noticeable time.
Can EasyTeamPlan replace Excel for scheduling?+
Yes. You build the weekly schedule by drag-and-drop in the browser instead of copying cells in Excel. Time-off requests, hours, and overtime are tracked automatically — no separate spreadsheets and no switching to text or email.
Does the scheduling app work on phones?+
Yes. Employees can see their schedule and submit time-off or availability requests from the mobile view. Owners and managers plan comfortably on desktop, while the team stays informed on any phone.
How much does employee scheduling software cost in the US?+
EasyTeamPlan starts at $2.99 per employee per month (Starter). The Plus plan, with advanced time logic and an audit log, is $4.99 per employee per month. Both plans are cancel-anytime — no hidden fees.
Does EasyTeamPlan help with overtime and Fair Workweek rules?+
It helps. EasyTeamPlan flags hours over 40 in a workweek (FLSA overtime), helps you publish schedules in advance, and logs schedule changes — useful if you operate where predictive scheduling or Fair Workweek rules apply. This is general product support, not legal advice.
Where is my data stored?+
EasyTeamPlan is run with privacy in mind. Access is role-based, and export or deletion requests can be made right in the platform. California residents have rights under the CCPA/CPRA — see our Privacy Policy for details.
