Why Shyfter doesn't work for small restaurant teams
We built Smarteaming after hearing the same complaints from restaurateurs and shop owners.
Price jumps at 30+ employees
Once you cross 30 employees, Shyfter adds €50 per additional 30. A team of 35 pays €89/month. With Smarteaming, 35 employees costs €35/month — the price grows with your team, not in steps.
Premium onboarding costs extra
Shyfter's pricing FAQ mentions that premium onboarding with dedicated specialists is available for a fee. At Smarteaming, onboarding support is included — no hidden charges.
Different approach to shift attendance
Shyfter focuses on shift notifications when schedules are published. Smarteaming takes a different approach: staff confirm before the shift — so you know who's coming before service starts, not just who saw the schedule.
