At Club Piscine Longueuil, Beloeil, and Saint-Constant, scheduling used to be a constant challenge. With three retail locations, a warehouse, and over 90 employees, coordinating schedules, PTO requests, and unexpected changes quickly became complex—especially during summer peak season.
Before Agendrix, Excel was the tool used for everything, resulting in wasted time and confusion. “It was a mess,” says Pierre-Olivier Dussault, co-owner. Agendrix’s arrival was a turning point. No more oversights, no more manual follow-ups—and most importantly, no more staff complaints.
Before / After (time per 2 weeks)
Creating schedules with Excel took up to 1h45 per location. It meant juggling staff availability, verbal vacation requests, and constant tweaks.
Every schedule change meant going back to Excel, exporting to PDF, picking the right email addresses, and hoping everyone got the update.
Sharing schedules was done manually by email. The result: frequent oversight and employees not receiving their schedules.
Timesheets used to be in a separate, slow software that only the accountant could access. Any adjustment was time-consuming and had to be done manually.
Reusable templates and the copy-paste function make the task lighter and much faster. It’s now a hassle-free exercise that takes about an hour per site.
Employees view schedules on their phones, and managers can see who viewed them. Time-off requests and shift swaps are all handled in Agendrix.
Schedules are instantly visible in the app for everyone. Fewer errors, more fluidity and up-to-date employees.
Directors approve work hours daily in Agendrix. Timesheets are ready to export to Nethris, saving around 2 hours per pay period.
Why Agendrix?
- Scheduling is much faster thanks to reusable templates, bringing the time required for the task down to about one hour per location.
- Employees receive their schedules on their phones, and managers can confirm they’ve seen it via a read receipt icon.
- Employees send time-off requests directly through Agendrix, preventing oversight and simplifying absence management.
- Store managers approve work hours, which streamlines payroll processing.
I haven’t heard a single complaint about schedules since we started using Agendrix. It’s just so much simpler.
