rota features

Your whole team's week at a glance

The rota lives in HivePlanner. Your cleaners see their part of it in HiveCrew.

Crew View

One row per cleaner. Drag a clean to someone else's row to move it to them, keeping the same day and time.

Recurring cleans

Daily (with a weekdays-only option), weekly, fortnightly, three-weekly, monthly or custom. Change one clean, this and future cleans, or the whole series.

Holiday and sicknessNew

With HiveLeave on, "Off" bands show in Crew View, and HiveSuite warns (or blocks) before you book someone who is away.

Needs cover

A list of every job in the next eight weeks with someone booked who is off, so cover is arranged in advance.

Clash warnings

A warning before you double-book a cleaner, so nobody is expected in two homes at once.

Each cleaner's day

Cleaners see their own jobs in HiveCrew, today first, with access notes, and are notified when a clean is added.

how it works

From rota to clean done

  1. 1

    Set up the regular cleans

    Create each customer's recurring clean and assign the cleaner to the series.

  2. 2

    Holidays come in

    Cleaners can ask for time off from HiveCrew if you allow it, and you approve or decline.

  3. 3

    Arrange cover

    Needs cover shows the affected cleans; drag each one to another cleaner in Crew View.

  4. 4

    Everyone is told

    Cleaners added to a job are notified by email, in-app and push, and optionally SMS.

HiveLeave

Holidays that plan the cover

HiveLeave is an optional module on every plan. Switch it on from the Modules page and the rota knows who is off.

See HiveLeave
  • Holiday allowances per person, including part-time and new-starter shares
  • UK bank holidays, and company closures such as a Christmas shutdown
  • Requests approved or declined with a reason, and Report sick from HiveCrew
  • Rules for minimum notice and how many people can be off at once
  • A private calendar link for each person's own time off
  • Every change kept as history
Good to know

HiveSuite plans the rota from jobs you book; it does not build the rota for you or optimise routes. Seats: Solo includes 2 crew, Small Team 5, Growing Team 10, and Professional unlimited crew.

questions

Cleaning Rota Software FAQ

What is cleaning rota software?

Cleaning rota software shows which cleaner is at which job and when, handles regular cleans, and helps you cover holidays and sickness. In HiveSuite the rota is HivePlanner's Crew View, with HiveLeave for time off.

Can I see all my cleaners on one screen?

Yes. Crew View shows one row per person. Drag a job to someone else's row to move it to them at the same day and time.

How does HiveSuite help with holiday cover?

With HiveLeave switched on, HiveSuite warns (or blocks) before you book someone who is off, shows "Off" bands in Crew View, and lists every job in the next eight weeks that needs cover.

Do cleaners see the whole rota?

You choose. HiveCrew schedule visibility settings let crew see their own schedule or everyone's.

Does HiveSuite build the rota automatically?

No. You book the cleans and assign the cleaners; recurring cleans then repeat on their own. HiveSuite does not optimise routes automatically.

Is the rota included on every plan?

Yes. HivePlanner, HiveCrew and the optional HiveLeave module are included on every plan from Solo at £34.99/month including VAT.
