Excellent & Easy to Use Time Management System
Our experience with Deputy right from the very beginning has been nothing but fantastic. If you have any questions, they are answered, if you need help you can get it & it is also very cost effective. We employ about 30 people & work in the Construction Industry. Due to the fact that there are many varied competencies involved in the type of works we do and there is also a number of different locations on any given day, rostering our staff used to be an absolute headache. Since implementing Deputy we have found this task to be completely trouble free. When we add our Employees to Deputy we input all of their relevant "Training" which includes competencies & site inductions which assists us tremendously when choosing who we can roster to the many different daily tasks we undertake. Our industry also requires that hours of work is reported of which is another feature Deputy is of tremendous value for. Not to mention the ease of actually paying our Employees each week via the connection with Xero.
PROSThe most helpful feature for us is the "Training" which allows us to know which of our Employees are qualified to undertake different tasks. It is also extremely handy when it comes to paying our wages - no more time sheets !! Once the Employees times have been approved which we try to do on a daily basis, it is just a matter of pushing the button & our payroll in Xero is ready to go. Also the "Scheduling" is wonderful & extremely easy to use.
CONSThe Android app doesn't provide as many features as the IPhone app.

Deputy is seriously like the sheriff that came in and cleaned up our employee scheduling nightmare!
We had employees staying clocked on after shifts milking the clock. We didn't notice it until it was time to run payroll. Now this tells me whenever someone stays on more than 5 minutes past their shift. Or clocks in more than 5 minutes early. 6 stores, 3 shifts a day, it really adds up quickly!
PROSEasy to learn. As the person in charge I not only had to learn this product, but I had to train everyone else on this product. And not just train them, but sell them on why it was better than what we were using. Luckily, Deputy is so complete, it was easy. They haven't forgotten a single step.
CONSI wish it synced with my Google calendar. Only thing missing.
Reason for choosing Deputy
Comes right down to functionality and features for the amount your willing to pay. Homebase was out of the budget for what I felt we would get in turn.
Reasons for switching to Deputy
When I work was constantly giving us problems. Whether it was Android one week, IOS the next, it got to the point we were spending More time fixing than it was saving.

Stay Away From Deputy!
Deputy worked fine for us for at least a year. Nothing special, but it integrated with our Gusto payroll and ServiceM8 CRM and that's what we needed. But about 5 weeks ago it lost the ability to calculate over time. If a man works 49 hours in a week, it exports it to Gusto now as 49 straight hours, instead of 40 straight and 9 OT. We have exchanged dozens of emails with Deputy and we only get a canned response back. They say they are looking at it, but we don't believe it. How difficult could it be to compute OT correctly for a time tracking app?!! We don't think there is anyone working there any longer, -just a shell sucking up the monthly fees for as long as possible before folding.
PROSThe integration with ServiceM8, which is why we chose Deputy
CONSCustomer service is horrendous, and the product is unreliable.

Deputy facilitates employee scheduling
Having a nearby application that makes use of our technology makes it all the more valuable. In particular, the team's knowledge opportunities for Vice customers are fantastic. I consider the time and effort invested learning and mastering Deputy to be worthwhile, even if I am already an advanced user.
PROSOther scheduling tools I've tried were either impractical or too difficult to learn and utilize. Deputy is the best scheduling software I have used, and I have tried a few. It's easy to get the hang of, navigate, and succeed in.
CONSTurns off the door/window alarm. This quality is unnecessary, and the numerous safety precautions might be frustrating. Alter the range of colors available inside the span. The app's request and route customization features are user-friendly.
Reasons for switching to Deputy
Deputy is a useful tool for our team. I've integrated Deputy into our two businesses and now can't imagine life without it. It helps us coordinate our schedules and time off requests, as well as our finances and internal communications.

Love it. Great Product. Highly Recommended.
I have to create rosters, manage timesheets, monitor lot of activities including labour percentages and all and deputy provides such an easy and user friendly way of doing all that I do. Copying and pasting shifts is a joy. Overall user experience is great for me.
CONSNot that I remember in specific. However, total labour cost tracking mechanism like Employment Hero's would be a plus.
Reasons for switching to Deputy
Employment hero was too messed up, not clean interface, no copy paste options for schedules.
