About Shiftdesk

We're building the workforce management platform we always wished we had β€” simple, fair and made in Germany.

Our mission

Shift-based businesses in the DACH region deserve better software. Many teams still plan with Excel, WhatsApp and scraps of paper β€” or pay too much for complicated enterprise solutions. Shiftdesk closes that gap.

We believe that shift scheduling, time tracking and employee management belong in a single app β€” not spread across five different tools. And we believe that fair, transparent pricing shouldn't be the exception.

What drives us

Simplicity

Software has to work, not be explained. Every feature in Shiftdesk should be instantly understandable.

Data protection

Employee data deserves special protection. Shiftdesk was built on GDPR principles from day one β€” not bolted on afterwards.

Made in Germany

Development and hosting in Germany. Servers in Frankfurt. No detour through US infrastructure.

Technology & security
