Timetastic makes managing holiday requests much easier than any manual system I’ve used in the past.
Ronnie Davies

Timetastic is really easy to use. Each of member of staff has a time off calendar, and I can see how many days they have remaining from their holiday allowance.
Rowan Johnson

Great for staff as they can book leave as and when the need arises (evenings and weekends) and the leave can be approved or declined by managers with the click of a button.

Timetastic is a game changer for our vacation and timeoff management. With the easy to install app and the detailed inventory of our multiple types of leave, it brings our vacation management out of the dark ages. Awesome tool that our HR department is thankful for.

A simple to use platform. Fantastic for a small team at a great price point. As an administrator, it is easy to onboard the team and manage their leave allowances. Approval system is seamless. Customer service has been very prompt and professional. Highly recommended.

We have found Timetastic very useful with staff holidays. It is easy to use for the employee and excellent to use for the employer to add in sick days and unpaid leave etc. It also reminds you weekly of who is off, so you can always see who’s off in the week at the start, helping book jobs in around them.

So much easier to keep track of time off now, and the whole team can view it which means clashes are avoided, and with the working from home feature we don’t need to worry if someone hasn’t arrived at the office.
Catherine Holcombe

We started using Timetastic a couple of months ago and it is brilliant. It is so easy to customise and so easy to use. The team love it and I love not having to constantly update an excel spreadsheet! It is also exceptional value for money.

I've been saying it over and over again recently. Timetastic is brilliant — really feel like the founders sat down and said “what is a real pain about managing leave/holidays, right, let's fix it. All of it.”
Chris Hayward

Mobile apps too

Your team can make use of the leave management software apps for Android and Apple to book an absence. No need to be in the office, everything is instantly tracked!

FAQ

Can I try Rota & Time Clock before I commit?

Yes. It's available now, and it comes with a 30-day free trial. Start a free trial of Rota & Time Clock and you can build next week's rota and have the team clocking in from their phones the same day. Already on a previous Timetastic plan? Your people, teams and time off carry over automatically, so the rota opens with your staff already in it. If it turns out not to be for you, nothing changes and you stay on your current plan.

What is rota and time clock software?

Rota software lets you build, publish, and manage your team’s shift schedules in one place. Time clock software tracks when your team clocks in and out and turns that data into timesheets. Together, they replace spreadsheets, paper rotas, and manual time tracking with one system that handles scheduling, attendance, and payroll prep.

How is this different from standalone rota software?

Most rota tools start you from scratch. New account, new login, new app for your team. Timetastic already has your employees, your leave data for the current year, and your leave types. Rota & Time Clock adds scheduling and time tracking on top of what you’ve already built. No setup. No starting over.

Built with simplicity in mind just as our previous plans, guided by the feedback of many managers and admins who truly understand the daily challenges you’re facing.

How do employees clock in and out?

From a mobile device, shared tablet, or desktop computer. They open the Rota & Time Clock app, tap clock in, and that’s it. Managers can see who’s clocked in right now and who isn’t. Every clock-in is tied to the shift on the rota, so you’re not matching up separate systems later.
