Effortless user management

Choose to manually select users or conveniently include everyone from an existing channel or user group in just one click.
Rotation App automatically updates your rotation‘s user list when your channel or group members change, ensuring the user list is always up-to-date without the need to manually update the rotation users when there is a change in your team.

Easy user mentioning

Rotation App automatically creates a user group for your rotation, so you can easily @mention the people on call.

Alternatively, you can also create a rotation without a user group, and Rotation App will automatically notify the people on call whenever the name of the rotation is mentioned in a message.

Seamless queue management

Keep your team‘s rotations clear and flexible. With Rotation App, easily view who‘s on call and who‘s next in line. Change the order, assign a different person, or skip a shift with just a few clicks.

Plus, manage one-off substitutions effortlessly, all without disrupting the queue‘s flow. Stay organized and adaptable, ensuring your team is always prepared.

Availability & Load Balancing

Keep rotations fair and accurate with a suite of controls that adapt the queue to your team‘s reality.

Out-of-office detection: detect users who are OOO, on vacation, or out sick, and skip them automatically or with one click.
Days of Availability: define each user‘s regular work days so part-time, no-Fridays, or weekend-only schedules are respected without manual tweaks.
Overlap Prevention: stop the same engineer from being booked for overlapping shifts across different rotations.
Proactive Adjustments: when availability changes, the queue updates immediately instead of waiting until shift day.
Load Balancing: assign each shift to the available person with the fewest recent shifts, keeping workload even when team members have different availability.

Calendar Integration

With Rotation App‘s calendar integration, effortlessly stay updated on who‘s on call and who‘s next directly from your favorite calendar app. Stay organized and in the loop without any extra effort.

Rotation Clusters for global teams

With Rotation Clusters, you can group related rotations under a single handle so distributed teams can be reached with one mention. Ideal for follow-the-sun coverage, East/West splits, or 24/7 (8-8-8) schedules where different people are on call in different timezones. Anyone in your workspace still reaches the right on-call person with a single @-mention.

FAQ

Frequent questions and answers

What's considered an "Active User" in the pricing?
The pricing only counts the number of users who are part of a rotation. Rotation App does not take into consideration the total number of users in your Slack workspace.
If a user is part of multiple rotations, are they counted more than once?
Rotation App does not count a user more than once, even if they are part of more than one rotation. We try to keep our pricing as fair as possible :)
Is the billing pro-rated?
Yes, we use pro-rated billing. So you can upgrade/downgrade your subscription at any time, and your existing balance will be used towards your next billing cycle.
Do you have a special offer for non-profit organizations?
Yes! We love non-profits and we can't miss the chance to contribute to your success. Please reach out for a very generous offer. Rotation App is proudly supporting dozens of non-profits already.
