What our clients are saying.
The TOIL feature integrates well into our workflow, allowing for crucial downtime after peak project periods.
“Intense projects and overtime are a regular part of our work, often driven by the fast-paced nature of our industry. Time off in lieu compensates for these demanding periods, and with Hub Planner adding the TOIL feature, this becomes seamlessly integrated with the rest of our resource management. It brings balance and boosts flexibility, helping us and our employees efficiently recharge after demanding periods.”
Peter Scott, Managing Director @Cityscape
