Restaurant labor scheduling software is a secure online platform where restaurant managers and staff can log in to manage schedules, view upcoming shifts, request time off, and track labor costs. It keeps all communication and scheduling details in one place, so you don’t have to rely on paper schedules or endless text messages. This makes it easier to stay organized and ensure everyone on your team knows when they’re working.
Softr makes it simple to build restaurant labor scheduling software that matches the way your restaurant operates. You can connect your existing data—like employee rosters or shift details from Airtable, Notion, or other tools—and create a platform where staff can log in, check their shifts, submit availability, and managers can adjust schedules all in one place.
You don’t need to code anything. You can use a template or start from scratch, customize the layout, decide who can see or edit schedules, and brand it with your restaurant’s logo and colors. It’s quick to set up, easy to update, and flexible enough to adapt as your team or scheduling needs change.
You can include a variety of features in your restaurant labor scheduling software, depending on what your workflow requires. Some of the most common ones include:
\- User logins – so each staff member can access their own schedule
\- Custom dashboards – to view weekly shifts, labor costs, or time-off requests
\- Forms – for staff to submit availability, shift swaps, or vacation requests
\- Notifications – to alert employees of new schedules or changes
\- Search and filters – to help managers find staff or shifts quickly
\- Tables, lists, and detailed views – to display schedules, employee profiles, or open shifts
\- Calendar view – for a clear look at daily or weekly staffing
\- Permissions and roles – so managers and staff only see what’s relevant to them
All these features can be put together using Softr’s drag-and-drop blocks, so you don’t have to write any code. If your scheduling process changes, it’s also easy to update the software later.
No coding is required. You can build your restaurant labor scheduling software entirely using Softr’s visual editor. Everything from the layout to user permissions can be customized without writing a single line of code.
Yes. You can manage multiple restaurants or teams within a single restaurant labor scheduling portal. Each manager and staff member only sees the schedules, shifts, and information relevant to their assigned restaurant or team, based on their login and role. This is especially helpful for restaurant groups or franchises that coordinate staffing across several locations.
Softr supports a range of data sources that can be used for your restaurant labor scheduling needs. You can connect to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, HubSpot, Clickup, Xano, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, BigQuery, and more. The REST API also allows you to bring in data from other sources if needed.
You’re not limited to one source—you can integrate multiple sources into your scheduling portal, so you might pull in staff information from Google Sheets while syncing shift data from Airtable, for example. Many sources support real-time, two-way sync, so your schedules and data stay up-to-date automatically.
Yes, Softr gives you full control over how managers and staff interact with your restaurant labor scheduling software. You can tailor the layout, navigation, and content to match your restaurant’s workflow and branding. Each page or block can be shown or hidden depending on the user’s role—so, for example, staff only see their shifts, while managers have access to the full schedule.
You can set up different user roles, such as manager, team lead, or staff member, and define exactly what each can view or edit. This also allows you to filter schedules so each person sees only what’s relevant to them. This level of customization is especially valuable when coordinating multiple restaurants or teams, keeping the system secure, organized, and easy for everyone to use.
Yes, you can. You don’t need to import your data from another system to start building your restaurant labor scheduling app with Softr. If you’re starting from scratch, you can use Softr Databases, which are built right into the platform and integrate seamlessly with your scheduling workflows.
But if you already have scheduling or staff data in tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, Supabase, or SQL, you can connect those as well. You can also use the REST API connector for even more flexibility. Either way, you have control over how your scheduling data is organized and displayed in your app.
Yes, you can fully white-label your restaurant labor scheduling software in Softr. You can use your own logo, brand colors, fonts, and custom domain to make your scheduling solution feel like a seamless extension of your restaurant or group. You can also remove all Softr branding, so your managers and staff only see your restaurant’s identity throughout the entire experience.
Absolutely. Softr gives you a lot of flexibility to control both the design and layout of your restaurant labor scheduling software. You can adjust colors, fonts, spacing, and page structure to match your restaurant’s brand. You can also choose how each page is organized, decide which scheduling and staff management blocks go where, and customize what different user roles (like managers or team members) see when they log in.
To handle your scheduling data, you can add different types of blocks depending on your needs:
\- Table blocks – to display employee schedules, shift assignments, or time-off requests
\- List or Card blocks – to highlight staff profiles, roles, or shift swaps
\- Detail View – for reviewing individual schedules or employee records
\- Forms – for collecting availability, vacation requests, or shift feedback
\- Calendar blocks – to visualize weekly or monthly schedules
If your content or scheduling needs change later, it’s easy to update everything right in the visual builder.
Softr is built with security in mind. All data for your restaurant labor scheduling software is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest, and your app is hosted on secure, reliable infrastructure. You have full control over who can access schedules, employee data, and management tools in your app. You can set up role-based permissions, manage users directly within your data source, set visibility rules, and apply global restrictions to protect sensitive staff information throughout your scheduling tool.
For apps connected to external data sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, Softr doesn’t store your data—it just displays it in real time based on your access settings. You’re always in control of your data and who can view or edit it.
Softr also follows industry best practices for authentication, access control, and platform monitoring to help keep your scheduling and employee information safe.
You can get started for free. Softr’s Free plan lets you publish one app with up to 10 users and 2 user groups, and supports all standard data sources like Softr Databases, Airtable, and Google Sheets.
If your scheduling software needs to support more users or advanced features, you can explore Softr’s paid plans to find the right fit: <http://softr.io/pricing>
Softr is designed to make it simple to create user-facing apps like restaurant labor scheduling software—without writing code or relying on developers. What sets Softr apart is how quickly you can go from your idea to a fully functional scheduling solution, and how easily it connects with your existing data.
Unlike some no-code tools that focus on mobile apps (like Glide) or are more developer-oriented (like Retool), Softr is made for non-technical teams who want total control over layout, user experience, and permissions. You can build on top of real-time data from platforms like Airtable, Google Sheets, Softr Databases, or SQL and create secure, branded scheduling software that your restaurant managers and staff can log into.
You can customize everything visually—from schedule layouts and staff profiles to user permissions. Since Softr includes user roles, forms, conditional logic, and API support out of the box, you don’t have to cobble together multiple tools to launch a polished product.
Yes. Softr supports a wide range of integrations so you can connect your restaurant labor scheduling software to the rest of your tech stack. For example, you can sync with payroll tools, send notifications through email or Slack, and automate schedule-related tasks using Zapier, Make, or N8N. Softr also supports REST API and webhooks for more advanced workflows.
Whether you want to push schedule updates to another system, trigger reminders based on shift changes, or display information from other tools, you can build these automations into your scheduling system without writing any code.
