Which one is for you

Pick Humanity Schedule if

  • Fits if you schedule hourly staff and want labour cost beside the rota
  • Works for a small team that can pay yearly

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want auto-fill or demand-based scheduling on the cheapest plan, as those need Professional
  • Watch out: open API access, Shift Tasks and Labor Optimizer are paid add-ons
  • Not for you if you need monthly-billing prices, as only annual rates were readable
  • Tight if you are large, as Enterprise is a custom quote and Professional discounts are not published

Pick Legion if

  • Fits if you run a large hourly workforce across many sites
  • Works for a business that will go through a demo and a sales process

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you run one small site, as the site is built for large hourly workforces
  • Not for you if you want a price list, as none is published
  • Watch out: on-demand pay runs through a partner, Stream
  • Too light for anyone who needs to know the phone platforms, as iOS and Android are not named

    How this page was made

    • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
    • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
    • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
    • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
