Questions

Teamagogo vs Homebase: questions owners ask.

Is Teamagogo cheaper than Homebase?

For most teams that need tasks or tip pooling, yes. Both have a free tier for up to 10 people at one location. Past that, Homebase's $30 plan is about the same as Teamagogo Basic at a flat $29. But Homebase charges $13 a month for Task Manager and $25 for Tip Manager per location, so $30 plus both is $68, where those are included in Teamagogo Basic. For AI scheduling, Homebase starts at $70 a month per location on Plus, and Teamagogo All-In is $1 less at $69 up to 50 people; above 50 people All-In is $79, which is $9 more than Plus. Basic at $29 already includes Shifty drafts with explanations, and neither Teamagogo plan has add-ons.

Can I import my team from Homebase?

Yes. Teamagogo's Move-in reads Homebase files for your employee list, past timecards and time-off balances. You see a preview before anything is saved, and your team can be clocking in the next day.

Does Teamagogo have AI scheduling like Homebase?

Yes. Shifty drafts the week around availability, overtime and your rules, and shows the reason for each pick. You choose whether it only suggests, drafts for you, or builds and sends the week on its own when nothing breaks your rules.

Do I need Homebase Payroll or another payroll add-on?

No. Teamagogo builds export files for ADP RUN, Gusto, QuickBooks Online and Paychex Flex. Employees sign off on their week first, so the hours you hand payroll are clean.

Is there an app to download?

Teamagogo installs from our website onto any phone's home screen, with its own icon and alerts. It works the same on iPhone and Android. There's no App Store or Google Play download yet.
