Building a roster by hand stops scaling the moment you've got more than a handful of staff, more than one site, or an award that pays people differently depending on the day and the shift. Microkeeper's rostering software sits in the same system as your timesheets and payroll.
A roster is a schedule that assigns specific shifts with start times, finish times, breaks and locations, to specific staff over a set period. In Microkeeper, a roster gets built once from a template or copied from the week before, then published so staff can see their shifts from the Microkeeper employee app and managers can see coverage across the whole team in one place.

Microkeeper isn’t just another scheduling tool — it’s trusted by Australian businesses as one of the best roster apps thanks to its mobile access, award-compliant automation, and seamless integration with payroll. Whether you're rostering staff in a single café or across a national franchise, Microkeeper adapts to your needs.
From wage cost visibility to fewer scheduling conflicts, Microkeeper's rostering software is built to be affordable, simple to use, and trusted by Australian businesses, from small teams to multi-site enterprises.
Automating the build catches clashes before they happen, instead of a manager spotting them after the roster's already published.
Costs are visible while you're still building the roster, so wage budgets stay a planning input, not a surprise once payroll runs.
Microkeeper is affordable, simple to use, and trusted by Australian enterprises and small businesses.
Experience a seamless approach to workforce management that saves time and drives better business outcomes.
A manager oversees their own location without needing visibility into every other one, and leadership gets a single rolled-up view instead of five separate files.
Templates and cloning mean managers spend less time rebuilding the same week from scratch, and more time on the floor or on the tasks that actually need a person.
Once your award and break rules are set up, every roster built afterwards follows them, cutting the manual checking that otherwise falls on a manager.
A spreadsheet works fine for a small, single-site team with a stable pattern. The coordination cost grows once you add headcount, sites, or shift complexity.

"One of the standout features is the visibility on costs as soon as we prepare the rosters. This real-time insight gives us much better control over wages, which is our biggest expense.”
"It’s super-efficient. Microkeeper lets us do costed rosters and easily share them with our staff. Being automated it also cuts out time theft.”
"When I bring up the roster, Microkeeper tells me who is available and who’s not. Staff can tell me they want to work certain shifts, and if I have to add staff because the booking system shows we’ve had an unexpected number of extra bookings, I can put the call out on Microkeeper."
"You can create the roster based on your sales figures and make sure that you have the right amount of people on at the right times.”
