Overview

Connecteam is a mobile-first workforce management platform built for deskless and frontline teams. It bundles employee scheduling, a GPS-enabled time clock, task checklists, in-app chat, and HR tools like onboarding, training, and time-off management into one app. Functionality is organized into an Operations Hub, Communications Hub, and HR & Skills Hub, each priced separately. It is not a full payroll, benefits, or applicant-tracking suite, instead integrating with dedicated payroll providers.

The problem Connecteam solves

Businesses with deskless, shift-based staff struggle to schedule shifts, verify who actually showed up on-site, assign task checklists, and keep everyone communicating without juggling several disconnected tools. This hits owners and operations managers in industries like cleaning, construction, hospitality, and field service, where employees have no desk or company computer. Connecteam targets that gap with a single mobile app for scheduling, GPS time tracking, checklists, and team chat.
