Penny의 평가

Deputy is the heavy hitter in the scheduling space, and for good reason. It’s no longer just a digital calendar; it’s an optimization engine. If you’re running a business with more than 10 shift-based employees, the £4.50 per head for the Premium tier is a no-brainer. The time saved on 'who can cover Tuesday?' texts alone covers the cost, and the compliance safeguards will save you a fortune in potential legal headaches. However, don't buy into the 'set it and forget it' hype. AI scheduling is a tool, not a manager. It lacks the 'human touch'—it won't know that Two-Shift Tony and Manager Mike shouldn't work together because they argue about the radio. You still need to review the AI's output. It’s excellent at the math of labor costs, but you still need to handle the psychology of the team.

자주 묻는 질문

Can Deputy integrate with my existing POS system?+
Yes, it integrates directly with major players like Square, Lightspeed, and Shopify. This is essential for the AI forecasting feature to work, as it needs your sales data to predict how many staff you'll need next Friday.
Is there a minimum monthly spend?+
Yes, while the per-user cost is low, Deputy typically enforces a minimum monthly spend of around £20–£25 depending on your region, so it’s less cost-effective for teams of 2 or 3.
Is the facial recognition clock-in legal in the UK and EU?+
Yes, but you must implement it correctly. You need to gain explicit consent from employees under GDPR and provide an alternative (like a PIN) for those who opt out of biometric data processing.
How long does it take for the AI to start making good schedules?+
Expect a learning curve. For the first month, you'll likely need to manually override about 30% of its suggestions until it learns your specific business constraints and employee preferences.
Does it handle holiday pay and leave requests?+
Yes, it has a robust leave management system. When an employee requests leave and it’s approved, the AI automatically blocks them from being scheduled during that period, preventing double-booking errors.
