The Challenge

Having to constantly re-adjust schedules

For the managers at Yoga Fitness, dealing with the everyday realities of employee scheduling was a nightmare. Having to constantly re-adjust schedules due to employees’ constraints and finding optimal replacements from absentees became a never-ending struggle. From payroll to scheduling and replacement management, a lot of time and energy was spent manually making adjustments.

Using Excel and MindBody

Using Excel and MindBody (a class booking platform) to track transactions and attendances wasn’t effective for what they needed.

Difficulty in managing qualification and replacements

With over 20 different classes, managing employees’ qualifications and ensuring that replacements were always filled by an equally skilled teacher seemed impossible.

The Solution

Quick and efficient schedule changes

Once Amélie and her team made the switch to Evolia, it became night and day. They saved a total of 20 hours a week on payroll and schedule management and were able to make quick and efficient scheduling changes on the fly. Gone were the days of having to manually input scheduling changes, Evolia took care of it for them.

Keep track of fitness courses

Additionally, they were able to keep track of fitness courses that were in high demand and offer them to their clientele, making themselves more profitable in the long run.

Automating payroll

With Evolia automating payroll, error-free timesheets became the new reality. Best part? No longer having to chase down employees for replacements.

Why Yoga Fitness chose Evolia over other apps?

  • Versatile
  • Manages irregular schedules
  • Automates payroll

Its cutting-edge technology appealed to Amélie Beaumont’s team who valued a platform that was versatile enough to tackle all of their scheduling and workforce needs. From managing irregular schedules to finding replacements and automating payroll, Evolia became the solution that met their pressing needs.

Biggest advantage of choosing Evolia!

For Amélie and her team, the biggest advantage came from the time and money they saved from using Evolia. Time-consuming admin work like payroll and timesheet management became a thing of the past since Evolia automated it for them. Based on their own pre-established criteria, the smart time clock feature helped to round up and down employee hours so they didn’t have to manually figure it out themselves.

Less admin work meant more time to focus on what mattered most: growing their business and providing their clients with the top quality service they deserved.

Trying it is buying it. Once you try Evolia you’ll see what it’s all about. Get past your fear of change, you’ll be surprised how much time and money you’ll save by using Evolia.
