Plano WFM is a workforce management software platform that helps companies schedule, track, and optimize their employees' working hours — efficiently, fairly, and in line with labor law. Built in Germany and used by over 3.9 million people worldwide, plano covers the full workforce management cycle: predicting staffing needs, building shift schedules, recording time worked, adjusting plans in real time when things change, and analyzing results to keep improving. What it does: Staffing level analysis – Forecasts how many people you need, and when, using AI-driven demand data. Shift scheduling – Builds fair, efficient rosters for teams of any size, from 100 to 100,000 employees. AI-based schedule optimization – Automatically fine-tunes shift plans in minutes, cutting down on manual scheduling work. Time recording & time management – Digitally and legally captures working hours, breaks, overtime, sick leave, and vacation. Employee self-service (myplano) – A mobile app that lets staff view schedules, request time off, and swap shifts themselves. Skill & qualification management – Keeps track of which employees are certified or trained for which roles. Pooling – Helps quickly fill open shifts using available staff across teams or locations. Reporting & interfaces – Provides clear reporting and connects with existing HR, payroll, and access-control systems. Who it's for: Plano is designed for mid-sized companies and larger organizations with complex scheduling needs, across industries including retail, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing, logistics, contact centers, banking/insurance, aviation, and the public sector. Why customers choose it: Plano positions itself around three main promises — reducing unnecessary overtime and scheduling effort, keeping schedules fair and legally compliant, and improving employee satisfaction by giving staff more visibility and control over their own shifts. The company also emphasizes hands-on, long-term support ("even after implementation") and highly customizable software that can be tailored to a business's exact requirements rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all setup.
