    Planday
    Planday is a wonderful first step in organizing team management, such as mass communication, scheduling, time off requests, and centralized timesheets. I used it for my retail business and found it to be extremely helpful in communication with my team and keeping track of everyone scheduling needs in one place. As we grew, I noticed a need to assign tasks, which would be very helpful for larger companies or businesses with daily tasks that need to assigned to specific team members, departments, or shifts

    Runn
    Runn is our scheduling tool. We use it to track the dozens of projects that we have running and who is assigned to them. It allows us to create schedules for each employee and contractor (consultants) so we can effectively stay within the hours we allocate to each project and stay within the project budget.

    Runn
    • Runn allows us to track projects over a period of time to see who worked on it and how many hours were spent, to keep us on track.
    • Runn allows us to create schedules for our team of consultants. By viewing a person, we can see each project assigned and the weekly hours allocated.
    • Runn allows us to run reports to see if we need to bill for hours that go over the weekly allocation.

    Cons
    Planday
    • Holiday functionality - currently under review, new system launching early 2017 which will improve accuracy, calculate balances and deliver a more user friendly experience
    • Payroll reporting - data is not all relevant, could be more flexible
    • Schedule - could be more flexible to show employees consistently working across the group on one schedule

    • Runn meets our needs so I don't have any input here.

    Planday
    Ultimately Planday is the perfect tool for simple straightforward team time management, communication and scheduling. I would like to see a task management feature added to Planday and perhaps some integration for employee rewards. Planday is leaps and bounds above Quickbooks Time, and TimeClock Plus but falls behind Deputy only slightly by having less features available. Overall I would recommend Planday to any small business owner with a team of 5-20

    Runn
    We used Hubstaff before moving to Runn. The decision to leave Hubstaff was purely a financial one, as we were looking to cut expenses during the early phase of the pandemic. Both products are good, and Hubstaff worked well for our organization, but it was decided to move to Runn to save on organizational expenses without losing needed functionality.

    Return on Investment
    Planday
    • So much easier to manage than an Excel spreadsheet!
    • The relatively low cost is completely outweighed by the time saved using Planday

    Runn
    • Runn has been a positive impact on our expenses because we use a free (or low-cost) version in our tech stack.
