Using 7shifts vs HotSchedules —

When our Cali BBQ management team considered using 7shifts vs HotSchedules, we found many reasons to switch to 7shifts.

We used HotSchedules as a labor management technology tool for the first ten years of Cali BBQ. Then in 2020 we kept reading and hearing about 7shifts and how much improvement the restaurant technology company has made to simplifying labor management practices for restaurants.

7shifts benefits include: transparent pricing, mobile app for staff, an employee engagement dashboard, and much more.

After interviewing 7shifts CEO Jordan Boesch for our Digital Hospitality podcast, I told the cofounder that he had won over business during the course of the conversation.

Many influential restaurant industry people also believe in the power of 7shifts technology to manage staff. The Enlightened Hospitality Investments growth equity fund, managed by influential restaurateur Danny Meyer, invested $21.5 million in 7shifts in 2021.

“The restaurant and hospitality industry is about to experience one of the biggest periods of growth and hiring we’ve ever seen, and having the right technology in place to manage this process will be a crucial component to succeed,” Union Square Hospitality Group CEO Danny Meyer said in a press release about why they use 7shifts at his restaurants.

“Our business leaders have been uniformly impressed and inspired by the staff management platform 7shifts has built,” Danny Meyer said. “We look forward to our work together to help further propel 7shifts into becoming our industry’s gold standard.”

At Cali BBQ, we couldn’t be more excited to partner with a hospitality technology leader like 7shifts as it will further help us live out our mission of providing world-class digital hospitality.
