gastromatic vs Skello

gastromatic

The pages show fully automated scheduling with over- and under-capacity indicators and an Enterprise tier framed for management across locations and structures — real proposal power, not just a weekly grid. But I found no public information on qualifications, templates, open shifts or which demand figure drives the automated plan; a revenue journal feature appears only in a privacy note on storage, never as the stated driver of the roster.

Skello

Templates saveable from filtered views and rolled over ten weeks, positions split into primary and secondary, and a Smart Planner that proposes schedules from configurable constraints with its priority rules documented — that is a real planner, not a drawing board. Staffing forecasts and a connection to cash-register tools appear in the top tier, but the captured pages never say the forecast draws on till revenue, and we found no public information on labour cost shown against budget while planning or on staff shared across locations.

gastromatic

The Professional tier names surcharges, eAU and individual time-capture and break rules, which is more than a generic compliance claim — break rules and surcharges are concrete. I found no public information on checks for the statutory daily maximum or the eleven-hour rest period, on Minijob earnings warnings, or on collective-agreement surcharge sets, and nothing states whether a violation blocks publication or merely warns.

Skello

The planner works against named rule elements — daily amplitude, weekly rest days and an overtime system defaulted from the collective agreement — with regulatory alerts during planning and overtime configurable per workplace agreement, which is more than a generic compliance sticker. But the pages never name the supplements I bill every month — night, Sunday, holiday — only an automatic calculation of "variables de paie", and we found no public information on break rules, youth or maternity protection, a Minijob-style earnings warning, or whether an alert blocks the roster or merely warns.

gastromatic

Employees get a real, widely used app with document requests and e-signatures signed directly in the app, and the Professional tier adds mobile time capture alongside stationary terminals — more than a read-only view. I found no public information on availability entry, shift-swap requests, open-shift claiming, push notifications of changes, or language coverage.

Skello

Employees get real apps on both stores with availability and leave requests, shift-transfer requests, their own HR file, their hour tracker and mobile clock-in with geolocation. We found no public information on open-shift claiming, push notification of changes, offline clock-in handling, or swap approvals checked against the rule set, so this stops short of the shop floor resolving its own cover.

gastromatic

Individual rights models for multi-planner setups and a stated deletion of data 80 days after contract end give a works council something to start from, and third-country transfers are framed with standard contractual clauses. I found no public information on an audit log of who viewed an employee's data, configurable visibility of absence reasons, a published data-processing agreement, or documentation for works-council approval; the captured privacy statements concentrate on the website's marketing stack.

Skello

Four customizable permission levels with strict hierarchy — a scheduler's access to sensitive employee data can be restricted, managers see only strictly lower levels, and read-only access exists for accountants and CFOs — plus published retention figures, a named DPO and the vendor as processor under art. 28 GDPR. We found no public information on an audit log of who viewed or changed an individual's data, on configurable deletion periods, on whether the clock-in geolocation can be switched off, or on documentation the vendor offers for works-council approval.

gastromatic

Payroll preparation sits in the base tier, Professional adds payroll interfaces, surcharges and exports for payroll and controlling, tills and booking systems can be connected, four HR tools are named with an open API, and a fully integrated payroll service is offered. But I found no named payroll system such as DATEV or Lohn und Gehalt, no wage types mapped per surcharge, no lock step before transmission, and nothing on corrections after the month closes — an unnamed export is not a designed handoff.

Skello

The month closes properly — weeks locked for payroll, a green padlock signalling data can no longer be changed, all payroll variables consolidated in one report, a red lock after sending and only the system administrator able to unlock — and variable pay elements, premiums, advances and meal allowances are calculated automatically. But the handoff is an exported report plus a generic "connect your payroll tool" set-up: we found no public information naming a single payroll system behind that, on wage-type mapping per supplement, on a documented payroll API, or on retro corrections after the close.

gastromatic

The contracting entity is a German GmbH with a Darmstadt register court, hosting is AWS in Frankfurt am Main, and the privacy policy names its processors and grounds US transfers in standard contractual clauses. But the named processors are largely the marketing stack, the primary storage option for the revenue book and automated scheduling sits with a US provider, and I found no public information on the product's own processor chain such as push or support services, or on any certification.

Skello

The contracting entity is Skello SAS in Paris and the privacy policy states a preference for EU and EEA subcontractors, yet the only concrete hosting statement names Webflow Inc of San Francisco under the EU–US Privacy Shield framework, with the noted caveat that it may cover only the marketing site. We found no public information on where the SaaS product's employee data is hosted, on an EU hosting option, or on a published subprocessor list beyond the vendor's own site and sales tooling.

gastromatic

The pricing page publishes three tiers with feature lists, but I found no public price for the Starter or Professional tiers, and Enterprise is quoted only as "Preis auf Anfrage". The add-ons — integrated payroll, automated scheduling, document creator, the API — carry no prices in the captured pages, so no annual invoice can be computed from public material.

Skello

Main tiers and every named module carry public figures — Duo Standard "Dès 99€ /mois", Duo Max "Dès 129€ /mois", the payroll service "Dès 20€ /mois par employé", recruitment and RH expert priced, ten percent off with annual commitment, and a fourteen-day trial. What blocks the invoice arithmetic is the basis of those "from" prices: the pages never say what headcount or location count the plan prices cover, and we found no public information on VAT treatment, minimum term, or how inactive or seasonal staff are counted.
