“It is SO easy to use. It is intimidating at first familiarizing yourself with the platform but after a few minutes it feels so natural using it. I used to do all of my scheduling on an excel spreadsheet. It would take two or three times as long as it takes me now on 7shifts.”

Eddie Cuellar
Restaurant owner, Tower Burger


“I was originally drawn to 7shifts because of their simple and easy interface for scheduling, but when I found out they also did payroll, it was a no-brainer. My employees onboarded via the 7shifts mobile app in 10 minutes and I'm already saving hours of time when it comes to processing payroll. Total game changer.”
Fahad Hanif
Owner/Operator, Halal Guys

“If you're a restaurant professional, this is a mandate. If this is a hobby for you, by all means, use something else. Use Excel, use post-it notes if you write it down. But if you're a professional and this is your career and your actual goal is to earn profit for your business, then there's no viable solution or anything that would make sense other than this. There just isn't.”
Mike Bausch
Owner, Andolini's
