workit review
A focused web-based option for rosters, clocking, timesheets and payroll-ready hours.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
workit is a cloud-based HR and workforce-management platform for Australian businesses, including schools, small and medium-sized businesses, multi-site operators and larger organisations. Its rostering tools cover roster creation by team, site or role; shift assignment using role, location and availability; shift notifications; phone-based clock-in and clock-out; geofenced clock controls; automatic timesheets; and payroll-ready approved hours. The wider platform includes recruitment, onboarding, employee records, compliance, leave, performance, learning, policy management, incident reporting and offboarding.
Pricing is concentrated in one published tier: the Professional Plan costs $5 AUD per employee per month, billed monthly. It includes all listed HR modules, monthly billing, no long-term lock-in contract and local product support. A 30-day free trial is available, and the plan has a minimum requirement of 10 employees. This structure suits organisations wanting one subscription across HR and rostering rather than buyers comparing several feature-based tiers. It is a straightforward fit for teams that need core scheduling and payroll workflows without a long-term contract.
workit connects with Xero, Access Micropay, Definitiv, Seek, TASS, Microsoft Entra ID, Fair Work Australia, Jora, Adzuna and an Open API, giving it a broad Australian HR and payroll ecosystem fit. The main trade-off is scope within scheduling: the platform is web-only, and open-shift and shift-swap workflows are not part of the documented feature set. Choose workit when roster creation, availability-based assignment, geofenced attendance and approved payroll hours are the priority. Consider another scheduling product if native platform coverage or open-shift and swap workflows are central requirements.
