The paid plans give access to more advanced scheduling options as well as HR compliance tools. Most of Homebase’s basic scheduling and time-tracking features are available in its Free plan. Managers can send reminders about shifts, clocking in and out, breaks, and share shift instructions and messages with individuals, groups, or their whole team. Homebase’s mobile app also gives employees access to their schedules, hours, wages, availability, time off, and more. The software also lets managers edit timecards if employees forget to clock out, tracks breaks and overtime, and syncs timesheet data directly to most payroll software.

Homebase lets employees clock in via tablet, computer, phone, and point of sale (POS) system, alerting managers about who’s clocking in and where, who’s late, and who’s reaching overtime. The app also lets managers track employee availability, time-off requests, and approvals. Employees can view schedules via text and email or with Homebase’s free mobile app.

The software automatically calculates overtime, breaks, scheduling conflicts, and labor costs to help business owners stay on budget. Homebase makes it easy to build a schedule in minutes using templates and drag-and-drop scheduling blocks. We chose it as the best overall because it’s a scalable scheduling platform with a wide range of free and affordable features.

Today it includes team communication and hiring and reporting tools and serves over 100,000 businesses. Homebase was launched in 2015 as a free timesheet and scheduling software.
