ZonoSoft

Your rota on one A4 page. Payroll hours from the same week.

Zono Workforce plans the week's shifts, lets your team clock in from their phones, and turns the hours they worked into payroll figures for finance. Made by a store manager, for shops and small teams.

30 days free, no card needed. Windows and Android.

A week with Zono

One app follows the week from the first shift you plan to the hours finance pays.

  1. Monday

    Plan the rota

    Fill the week in a few minutes and print it on a single A4 landscape page.

    • Copy last week, use a saved template, or fill from everyone's availability
    • Warnings for gaps in cover, missed breaks, under-18 rules and hours over contract
    • Holiday, sickness, training and split shifts on the same grid
    • Print, save as PDF or Excel, or email it to the team
    The rota screen: a week of shifts for eight staff, with checks and the week's hours.
  2. Every day

    Clock in and out

    Your team clock in on their own phone with the free Zono Team app, or on a shared screen in the shop.

    • Location check: they need to be at work to clock in
    • People who work on the move can clock in anywhere
    • Breaks recorded, with a reminder of their shift 12 hours before
    • Team members only ever see their own shifts and hours
    The Zono Team app on a phone, showing the clock and a Finish shift button.
  3. Friday

    Check the timesheets

    See what was worked against what was planned, and approve the week in one go.

    • Late starts, early finishes and missed breaks flagged for you
    • Correct a time with a reason; the original is kept
    • Approved shifts update the rota, so it shows what really happened
    The timesheets screen comparing clocked times with the rota.
  4. Payday

    Send payroll hours

    Core hours, overtime, holiday, sickness and unpaid leave for everyone, ready for your payroll team.

    • Filled from the rota and timesheets, never typed twice
    • Approve and lock the period; every later change is recorded
    • Email finance with a PDF and spreadsheet attached
    • A reminder on your payroll day, weekly or monthly
    The payroll screen with core, overtime, holiday, sickness and unpaid hours for each person.

Holidays and allowances

Book holiday, see who's off and everyone's allowance left. UK statutory minimum worked out from each contract, with carry-over.

Shop terminal

Turn a PC or tablet by the till into a shared clock: payroll number, then a PIN or password.

Every device in step

Share the business's data through your own OneDrive, Google Drive or a network folder. Add a PC or phone with a join code or QR code.

Questions

Where is my data kept?

On your own PCs and phones, encrypted. If you share it between devices, it goes through your own OneDrive, Google Drive or network folder, also encrypted. ZonoSoft's server only knows that a copy of the app is running and, once you buy, your licence and contact details.

Which devices does it run on?

Windows 10 (version 1809 or later) and Windows 11, and Android 6.0 or later. An iPhone and iPad version is being prepared.

Do my team members need to pay?

No. They use the free Zono Team app with a code you make for them. Your licence covers five team members; each extra person is £2 a month or £20 a year.

What happens when the free trial ends?

Nothing is deleted. You can still open, print and export everything, but you can't make changes until a licence is active. Enter a key or register in Settings, then Licence.

Can I cancel?

Yes. A monthly licence runs to the end of the month you've paid for. Your data stays on your devices whatever you decide.

How do I pay?

Register in the app (Settings, then Licence) and email us. We'll tell you how to pay; card and Direct Debit payments are coming soon. Your account at zonosoft.co.uk/portal shows your licence key and what's due.

Is it only for the UK?

It's made in the UK and works out UK statutory holiday, but the rota, clocking and payroll hours work anywhere.
