Switching from Findmyshift

Outgrown a simple rota? Get one that checks itself.

Findmyshift is cheap and easy. Fivexer is too, and it also drafts the week for you, checks rest and hour limits, and keeps untrained people off shifts that need a licence.

What changes when you move

Shifts, swaps, leave and clocking in stay the same. Three things get better.

  • The first draft builds itself

    Tell Fivexer who is needed and when. It drafts the week around contracts, time off and the rules, and you change what you like.

  • The rota checks itself

    Set your rest breaks and hour limits once. If a shift breaks one, you see it before you publish, not after.

  • Only trained people get the shift

    Add a forklift licence or food hygiene certificate with its expiry date. When it runs out, that person cannot be put on a shift that needs it.

The move, step by step

You do not need a sales call. You can do it yourself, today.

  1. Download your staff list from Findmyshift

    In Findmyshift, open Staff and click Download. You get a CSV file with names and contact details.

  2. Upload it to Fivexer

    We match common column names like name, site and contract hours. Anything we cannot place, you pick from a list. Nothing is saved until you check it.

  3. Build next week’s rota and share it

    Fill shifts by hand or let Fivexer draft them. Staff get a link on their phone.

  4. Run both for a few weeks, if you like

    Keep Findmyshift until you trust the new rota, then stop it.

Paid Findmyshift for the year?

Use Fivexer free until your paid year runs out.

Tell us the date, then sign up. We set your workspace to free until then, so you never pay for two rota apps at once. Teams of 50 or more: send us the file and we do the import for you.

We email you once to confirm. Nothing else.

When Findmyshift is the better choice

Price is all that matters and your team is over about 80 people. Findmyshift charges one flat price per team, so from there it costs less than we do. It also includes payroll calculation and a 3-month free start.

If that is you, stay. If what you pay for is a rota, shifts on phones and clocking in, look at the numbers above.

Questions people ask before switching

Is Fivexer cheaper than Findmyshift?

Up to about 80 people, yes. Above that, Findmyshift’s flat team price is lower. What Fivexer adds is a rota that drafts itself, checks rest and hour limits, and blocks expired licences.

How do I get my staff out of Findmyshift?

Open Staff in Findmyshift and click Download. Upload the CSV file to Fivexer and check the columns before anything is saved.

Will my staff need a new app?

No download is needed. Staff open a link on their phone to see shifts, swap them and clock in. They can add it to the home screen like an app.

Is it really 50 cents a person?

Yes. The first 15 people are free. Every person after that is €0.50 a month on any plan. The rota is never a paid extra.

Where is our data kept?

In Frankfurt, Germany. Our data processing agreement and the list of companies we use are public on our security page.

What if we want to leave Fivexer?
