“Pilla helps me have a day off knowing that procedures will be followed”

Managing teams who move across hospitality sites is tough - procedures need to be followed every single day to protect customer safety and business reputation, no slip-ups are acceptable.

Roots and Berries use Pilla so that their staff know exactly what to do each day and exactly how to do it.

By adding step by step instructions to work scheduling and requiring photo evidence of key tasks, the management at Roots and Berries can be confident that their teams are following procedures without having to check everything in person.

What Pilla users say

Wish I had this sooner. I can have a day off work and my restaurant still runs like clockwork. This app makes it easy for my staff to follow daily procedures.

Apple App Store Review

"Installed and was able to schedule shifts for staff in minutes. I love how simple this app is. "

Apple App Store Review

"Easy clock in and out system. Clear overview of upcoming shifts. "

Trustpilot Review

" If you need more consistent teams, buy Pilla, simple as that. "

Apple App Store Review

" I used to repeat myself daily to my staff, now they have training videos at their fingertips. This is hands down the best way that I've found to provide staff with training. We have a lot of different things to do in our business and staff can forget how to do it properly, now they have training videos in their pocket! "

Apple App Store Review

"Ease of use and unified system for everything hospitality. "

Capterra Review

" I like that Pilla integrates all the features that I need as a business owner, but would have to buy separate products for "

Capterra Review

"We are very pleased with Pilla. It enables us to keep all our important documentation in one place and report any issues efficiently.The team are really helpful and fast to respond, explaining things thoroughly. Pilla has changed the way we work for the better. "

Apple App Store Review

" The agent keeps my staff motivated and updated in the team chat so everyone knows what's going on. One of my favourite things about this app is the AI agent that updates my teams every day in our team chat. It means my staff constantly know what's going well and what's not going well and it's transparent, the whole team can see what's going on. "

Apple App Store Review

" We use the app as a digital food safety management system so staff have 24/7 access to procedures. We used to have a paper based food safety system which lived on the shelf and was hardly ever used. Now our head chef has recorded a series of training and process videos which staff can view at any time on their phones, so our processes are actually viewed and understood now. "

Apple App Store Review

" I appreciate being able to access my own timetable without having to look at a graph rota. "

Capterra Review

"Superb system. Easy to schedule staff rotas and edit. Improved our staff communication of shifts tenfold."

Capterra Review

"Very good and the Pilla team are very easy to work with. They also very much welcome feedback. "

Capterra Review

"Easy to use from an employee side every set out very simply. "

Google Reviews Review

" All our communication now happens in this app. We can tag shifts and work so we have a full audit trail of our business. "

Apple App Store Review

" We have been using Pilla since opening and the app is fantastic! Very user friendly. "

Apple App Store Review

"It’s great, everything in one place. I’m still learning but I’m learning something new everyday which really explains the vast functions. "

Capterra Review

"You can tag specific people to action something and they’ll receive a notification straight away. I also like how straight forward it is to use."

Capterra Review

"It’s easy to see what hours I have on my rota. "

Capterra Review

" I can schedule shifts and work for my teams and instantly see what has been done. Love the colour coding system, I can see in seconds if my teams have clocked in and out and finished work on time. "

Apple App Store Review

" This app is the simplest way to run consistent desk-less teams. Honestly if you run teams that are always on the go, then you know how hard it is to get them to do everything correct every day. Try this app, it makes it obvious to our teams where they need to be and what they need to do. "

Apple App Store Review

"Compacts a lot of useful apps and info in one near package. "

Capterra Review

" Super easy to set up, use across all our sites and great for integrating training with all our teams! Transferring from our previous outdated compliance system seemed like a monumental task but the Pilla team made it feel seamless. With fast responses to any question and heaps of templates to help guide the set up what was need in each task we have been able to streamline our procedures and overall business. "
