It's so user friendly\! I love that you can assign shifts, remove shifts, swap and edit shifts easily. You can also very easily time track employees, which makes payroll much easier. > > **Cons**: The mobile app vs desktop experience is a bit different, and I found notifications hard to manage sometimes. > > I used it as a retail manager for over 2 years and was always thankful it existed. Support was helpful on the few occasions I needed it. ----- ### "Deputy timeclock software review" — 4.0/5 > **Amy** | *25 November 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Managers can see the schedule and current punch-in information, and communicate with the whole staff through the app. This allows supervisors to keep track of who is working, and quickly make scheduling changes as needed. > > **Cons**: When employee enters a punch that overlaps with a time off request, the kiosk doesn't log the punch or notify the employee that there is an issue. This can be frustrating when, for example, an employee returns early from a doctor's appointment, thinks they have punched in, but their supervisor finds out when approving timesheets that the punch was not logged. > > Deputy has most of the functionality we are looking for in a timeclock application. Our employees find it easy to use, and the punch details easily export to our payroll system. ----- ### "Good schedule and staff app." — 5.0/5 > **Rocco** | *24 December 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Scheduling and onboarding is very good. We also started to use the insights and sales forecast which proves to be a very useful tool. > > **Cons**: Payroll reports don’t show what I need. It would be good to develop timesheet reports. I am currently calculating manually the split between holiday hours and worked hours. > > Very good. We have fully understood the Hr side and the onboarding as well as th uploading of personal documents. Schedule and rota writing is very smart. ----- ### "Good value and secure, but payrooll accuracy needs improvement" — 5.0/5 > **Max** | *23 April 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deputy is very user-friendly and makes scheduling and time tracking straightforward. The mobile app is convenient for clocking in and out, and schedules are clearly displayed, which helps reduce confusion. I also appreciate how it centralizes shift management , making communication between staff and management more efficient. From a value-for-money perpective, it offers solid features for managing teams and reducing manual scheduling work. > > **Cons**: The main downside is occasional inaccuracies in time tracking and total hour calcutions. The pay and payment process could be more transparent, especially when reviewing total hours before payroll is finalized. Additionally, customer support response times could be improved, and some features feel restricted depending on user access levels. > > Overall, Deputy is a useful workforce management tool that improves scheduling efficiency and team organization. It provides good value for money and security when everything runs smoothly and offers a secure environment for managing employee information. However, improving accuracy in time tracking and making payroll calculations clearer would significantly enhance trust and reliability in the sytem. ----- ### "Good product. Needs better support." — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *25 February 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to sue once set up. Setup takes a while and their sales or support is very lackluster and the CS is very slow. > > **Cons**: Slow CS and they are not very knowledgeable. I end up setting up from other users. It is very hard to get answers. > > Average. Needs to improve sales team and support by a mile. They got potential but losing because of their crappy CS. ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/84093/deputy?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/84093/deputy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
