Timesheets and hours checking was OK. > > **Cons**: Task setting wasn't that sophisticated but seemed to start to upgrade by the time I moved to other software, as did other features, but I'd already committed to change. Restrictive comms options. > > I've used Deputy in multiple organisations in restaurants, events and education settings over many years and it has always been pretty reliable, though I don't think it developed as quickly as other similar software packages and started to lag behind a bit. However, for the time I used it, it did what I needed it to. ----- ### "Long term deputy user" — 5.0/5 > **Alexandra** | *17 December 2024* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy scheduling Links to accounting Calculates sales vs staff time. > > **Cons**: Holiday accruals don’t always match up and can be difficult to fix > > Excellent. Had it for 6 years - wouldn’t use anything else ----- ### "Deputy - a solid scheduling and timekeeping platform." — 5.0/5 > **Tim** | *27 May 2025* | Warehousing | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Detailed functionality makes it ideal for most aspects of managing staff scheduling, timekeeping, and outputting to payroll. Easy to use by employees. > > **Cons**: Once in a while, employees would have issues with the app, but this would be temporary, possibly to do with connectivity on the devices. Its not the cheapest option if you have a lot of staff doing few hours, as its a per user subscription I think. > > I used it operationally for a few years and found it easy and functional. Its very easy to make basic changes to scheduling and do timesheet approvals from a phone. ----- ### "Easy and helpful scheduling tool for everyday use" — 5.0/5 > **Portia** | *8 April 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deputy makes scheduling very easy and organised. It’s simple to use, and I like how I can see my shifts clearly and get updates quickly. It also helps with communication between staff and management, which makes work smoother. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the app can be a bit slow or glitchy, especially when trying to load shifts. Also, some features are not very clear at first and take time to understand. > > My experience with Deputy has been positive. It has made managing shifts and staying updated much easier. It’s a helpful tool for both staff and managers, even though there are small areas that could be improved. ----- ### "Useful for SMES like restaurants, Agencies, seller shops, Gyms etc." — 5.0/5 > **Amile** | *18 January 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deputy links timesheets to payroll system. Also, you can keep track with lates, absences, time offs, and most importantly the timesheet approvals before finalising shifts for payroll. > > **Cons**: I didn’t like the view of the scheduling if you have multiple locations or areas. But it’s very minimal. The prior view before the latest update was better in my own perspective. Also, I didn’t like the leave options available to manually input the times starts and ends, instead of just inputting the total hours of the day. > > Deputy is very useful specially for business who has a casual employees, contractors or under agencies with shift to shift pay basis. You can manage your people wisely from the term itself, deputy rostering management. ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/147589/deputy?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/147589/deputy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fi | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
