Rosterlite

A roster spreadsheet alternative for small teams

A spreadsheet is a fine place to start a roster. RosterLite takes over the parts it's bad at, and still hands you a spreadsheet when you need one.

Where a roster spreadsheet starts to hurt

  • Availability by text

    Collected from chats and memory, typed in by hand.

  • Screenshots go stale

    Out of date the moment you change a cell.

  • Two editors at once

    Or someone edits the wrong week.

  • Dropped the night before

    Nothing stops a shift going missing.

  • Gaps hide in rows

    You only find them by scanning every line.

Moving your roster over

Most small teams are set up in one sitting. Keep the old sheet for history.

Keep the spreadsheet for what it's good at

Export back to CSV, any time

Spreadsheets are still the best place for pay. Export every rostered shift, or one row per person with their total hours, for any date range. It opens in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers and maps into most payroll imports.
