Before Agendrix was implemented, Fromagerie Victoria in Saint-Jérôme managed its scheduling entirely in Excel. While Excel was a familiar tool, it quickly became tedious in a fast-paced environment where last-minute changes, time-off requests, and shift swaps were everyday occurrences. It was actually one of the employees who recommended Agendrix to Julie, co-owner and franchisee, highlighting how simple and efficient the platform was.

Trying It Was All It Took

Curious and eager to streamline her processes, Julie decided to give it a try. The results? Quick adoption and immediate relief. Today, she creates the full team schedule in just a few minutes, without having to juggle columns, copy-paste formulas, or worry about manual errors. As for shift swaps—they’re handled in just a few clicks. No more endless phone calls or group texts to coordinate changes.

With Agendrix, Julie isn’t just saving time—she’s also embracing a fully digital, modern, and organized way of managing her business. It’s a natural evolution for a growing company that values efficiency and employee well-being.

With Excel
3 h 30

Schedules were created in Excel using multiple spreadsheets. Staff availability was tracked in a separate notebook.

8 hours

Changes were handled via paper forms, often forgotten or lost, requiring calls, texts, and reprints. It was draining and a major stressor. Schedules were displayed in the break room and needed frequent follow-ups. Every change required crossing things out and calling employees.

1 hour

Hours were manually collected from printed reports and transcribed.

Paper memos were left in a binder, and texting was the main way to communicate.

Why Agendrix?

  • Julie saves valuable time every week now that schedule creation is simple, fast, and error-free.
  • She appreciates how easy the platform is to use—it doesn’t require any complex training for her or her team.
  • Shift replacements are now handled much more smoothly, since employees can see updates in real time and volunteer directly through the app.
  • Finally, Julie sees Agendrix as a tool that helps her professionalize her HR processes and take a step toward the future with sustainable digital practices.

A few competitors have tried to win me over with better pricing, onboarding support, and more. But I quickly realized they just don’t compare to Agendrix. I recently added the Time and attendance module and I love it!
