HotSchedules runs 120,000 locations for chains like Taco Bell and Dunkin'. To see a price, you book a demo. Teamagogo is built for the owner who works the floor: build the week from your phone, keep your payroll company, and skip the sales call.
With HotSchedulesThe product page has no prices. The next step is “Book a demo,” a form that asks your role, phone number and number of locations.
With TeamagogoPrices are on our website for everyone. Free for up to 10 people at one location, then $29 a month per location on Basic, however many people clock in, or $69 to $79 on All-In. No card to start.
With HotSchedulesThe “1 year of HotSchedules on us” offer requires a 24-month HotSchedules contract plus a Fourth Payroll contract, and you still pay payroll implementation and processing costs.
With TeamagogoNo contract. Keep ADP RUN, Gusto, QuickBooks Online or Paychex Flex. We hand them a clean, signed-off file.
With HotSchedulesHotSchedules says it builds schedules “using real sales and labor data” from your POS.
With TeamagogoShifty drafts the week around availability, overtime and your rules, and tells you why it picked each person. You decide if it suggests, drafts, or runs the week on its own. Changes to hours or pay are always proposals you confirm.
With TeamagogoShout-outs, points that are never taken away, rewards you choose, Employee of the Week and on-time streaks are part of the app every employee opens.
We kept the rows that matter to a single restaurant or a small group. Where HotSchedules is bigger, we say so further down.
