Inga K.
I was looking for solution to ease my every day employee scheduling tasks. With OPTAS I finally had the confidence to delegate this task to my assistant and I am sure that the quality of schedules is the same as I would make them.
Arnas R.
We used to track when employees arrive and leave work on a paper sheet. There were a lot of mistakes happening. By using OPTAS TimeClock app to track exact employee working hours I save at least 5 hours every month.
Anna P.
I like that my managers finally changed printed schedules to OPTAS app. I don't need to ask someone to look up the schedule for me, I have the latest info in my phone whenever I need.
Restaurant Staff Scheduling Made Easy
Schedules for multiple establishments
Manage all your restaurants and employees
A growing business like yours can't be tied to one place. However, opening new restaurants across the city or country brings many challenges. With OPTAS, restaurant employee scheduling won't be one of them. Our auto-scheduler allows you to manage multiple establishments and create schedules for dozens of employees using a single system.
Automated scheduler
Fully automate your scheduling processes
When we say our scheduling app for employees does everything for you, we mean it – no complicated spreadsheets, manual work, or pseudo-automated features. You get what you pay for – an automated system that only asks you to put employee preferences, rules, and priorities to do the rest automatically.
Scheduling on the go
Access your schedules wherever you are
You don’t need to carry a big piece of paper or log into your office computer to see who’s working today. With our restaurant employee scheduling software, you can access and manage employee schedules on your phone. The scheduling app for employees is fully compatible with your mobile devices, enabling easier and more efficient team management.
Benefits For You And Your Team
Time tracking
Track your staff’s performance
OPTAS lets employees clock in and out of work, making it easier for you to track how well they're doing and if they're working enough hours. The system automatically calculates employees' working hours, missed days, vacations, breaks and generates informative reports in seconds to optimize your human resources.
Get Started
Personalized schedules
Listen to your team
OPTAS employee scheduling software lets employees select the days they can and can't work, and the days they would rather not. They can also give their reasoning – perhaps they have an urgent doctor's appointment or don't want to work with a particular colleague. Record their preferences and let the system update the schedule accordingly.
Get Started
Real-time schedule updates
Change schedules seamlessly
Do you still print out monthly schedules that, after a while, are full of edits and changes? No wonder people don't show up some days, and there's no one to switch shifts with them. Our system allows you to make schedule changes as the month goes by and notify employees and managers, helping you avoid no-shows and service disruptions.
Get Started
Predefined working hours
No unnecessary work for you
Restaurants employ many students, part-time and seasonal employees, who might have other responsibilities that prevent them from working at certain times. If you know their availability in advance, input this information into the system, and it’ll automatically continue scheduling them based on their monthly availability.

Performance-based schedules
Optimize your staff’s performance
Restaurants and cafes rely on servers, bartenders, hosts, cooks, and other staff members to ensure smooth customer service. Based on specific rules, you can schedule certain positions, such as bartenders and servers, to always work together. You can also pair new employees with experienced staff to help them learn faster and reduce downtime.
