Katherine BréardDirector, Human Resources and Payroll, Corporate and Warehouses, BMR “We realized it was time for a change when managing schedules had become cumbersome and follow-ups were taking up an enormous amount of our managers’ time.”
Sandra Gabriel, CHRPDirector of Human Resources, Chaussures Yellow “Evolia saves us valuable time: each manager can prepare their schedules in advance, apply them to several employees and even let the app fill shifts automatically based on our criteria.”

Frequently asked questions
To help you choose with confidence.
How does migrating from another solution work?
A customer success manager supports you throughout implementation. They help you analyze your needs, configure your account, run tests and train your managers. A test payroll and satisfaction follow-ups then make sure everything works as expected.
Is Evolia a good fit for organizations with several locations?
Yes. Evolia is designed for organizations that manage several locations, with employees who can work at more than one site and rules that differ by team or by location. You can also manage statutory holidays by province.
How is Evolia’s support different from other solutions?
Support doesn’t stop at configuring the platform. An expert consultant also helps you review your processes and adapt Evolia to the way you work, from the very start of implementation.
How long does implementation take?
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of your organization. Implementation covers analyzing your needs, configuration, testing and training your teams before you start using Evolia on your own.
Does Evolia comply with provincial labour standards?
Yes. Evolia lets you configure the labour standards that apply in Canada and in each province, as well as the rules set out in your organization’s collective agreements.
Is the platform easy to learn?
Yes. The interface is designed to be simple to use, for managers and employees alike, and building schedules can be learned quickly. The initial setup does take more work, especially in organizations with complex rules. That’s why our team supports you throughout implementation.
