## About Ameego
The Ameego team is very familiar with the restaurant industry. In fact, you can call us seasoned individuals who have spent years wearing different hats including serving, bartending, and more in Winnipeg. During this time, one thing held true across the board – scheduling was often the most dreadful part of the job. Beyond keeping track of who could work which shifts, schedules copied over from the previous week didn’t take budgeting into consideration, it was difficult for staff members to switch shifts, and communication was often a challenge. Enter: Ameego. We started in a basement in 2006 and now, we’re here! Ameego is a leading scheduling, labor management and communication software built for the hospitality industry. With Ameego, managers can create balanced, profitable schedules with one single touch to save hours of valuable time every week. We’ll predict your shift needs, fill them with qualified staff, and identify potential shift conflicts. You’re in full control – easily adjust any part of the schedule before finalizing.

  ### 2. Great Scheduling Software

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospitality | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2025

It’s extremely user-friendly and makes scheduling simple. Pulling reports has become a breeze, and it’s also nice to be able to see the financials clearly.

The Time & Attendance section can be a bit tricky to navigate and maneuver at times. I’d also like to see some improvements to the shift shop to make it easier to use.

**What problems is Ameego solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creating and implementing schedules for my staff has become much easier. Pulling reports and reviewing the WTD log notes also makes it simple to see how shifts were run.

  ### 3. Effortless Scheduling with a Simple, Intuitive Design

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Liam M. | Kitchen Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2025

I like it’s simple design and how easy it is to make a schedule

Sometimes it can be a little bit glitchy

  ### 4. Ameego Makes Scheduling Work!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeff O. | General Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Ameego?**

Ameego helps us produce consistently excellent labour results! It keeps track of shifts, requests, sick/personal day tracking, makes team communication a breeze and keeps all the important stuff in one place!

**What do you dislike about Ameego?**

It has a lot more bells and whistles than when I was using 10 years ago so I am still trying to integrate some of these new functions into my routines!

**What problems is Ameego solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ameego helps me forecast labour, it handles scheduling reaquests with complete ease and once you set-yourself-up-for-success by adjusting sales forecasts by events/resos/weather AND putting your aces-in-their-places (and regular star employees in their regular shifts helping them grow their business within your business!) You can put a schedule together with "ONE TOUCH" of a button and often be ready to post right then and there. Being able to track things like sick/personal days helps you identify "trends" that you may not have noticed were happening (especially with large and part-time staffs). Easy to use, easy to project and easy to help generate the labout results you need!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2024

**What do you like best about Ameego?**

Ameego provides great analytics and is very user-friendly.    It provides a solution for labour management and historicals with log notes and labour.   I like the daily emails with all the data and information relating to the previous day.

When forecasting for holiday weekends it would be advantageous if it was able to relate the upcoming forecasted week based on what happened during the same holiday week the year before.  Statutory holidays move around.   Also, a warning email could be sent out based on the user criteria if the business unit is off-plan?

Scheduling efficiencies, reporting and logging HR notes and day to day operations results.
