Why Assyst

We're a team who thrive on solving problems and inefficiencies, dedicated to building software with purpose and clarity. Collaboration and improving workflow drives everything we do, so that real tangible results can be achieved.

You may be selecting a workforce management system for the first time, or perhaps you have legacy system that needs replacing as it’s now holding you back?

The answer though may not be that simple, and that’s why we’re not just offering a software solution, it’s as important to understand your business and what you want to achieve. It’s about trust, and partnership, choosing a team as well as a solution that will become a dependable part of how your organisation operates, every single day allowing the system to develop and grow with you.

Assyst is much more than just a platform for payroll and HR; it’s an operational framework designed to simplify complexity and strengthen control, where people, compliance, and performance all intersect. It genuinely delivers what other systems only promise, giving clarity, consistency, and efficiency.

Designed for even the most Complex Workforces

Assyst was created specifically to work in any situation from relatively simple setups to businesses managing large, multi-site teams. We understand the challenges, with fluctuating shift patterns, variable pay rates, overtime, diverse contracts, and the constant need for accurate reporting. Generic systems can’t cope with that level of detail, being manually reliant and inflexible.

Assyst solves these challenges because it was designed from the ground up to handle operational complexity without sacrificing simplicity. The platform can manage multiple roles, departments, pay structures, and sites within a single environment. That means no more spreadsheets, no more manual reconciliations, and no more doubt about whether the numbers are right.

End-to-End Integration

Many workforce systems do part of the job, tracking time, handling HR, or calculating payroll. Assyst does them all and more, giving a detailed staff app, task management and data collection, health and safety benefits with Company and site specific documents in the palm of your hand, and Role-Call features in the event of an emergency. Each module is part of one connected ecosystem, ensuring every piece of data flows automatically between functions.

When a manager approves a timesheet, payroll updates instantly. When HR issues a new contract, the employee’s record and pay details are synchronised. When staff sign in or complete a task, it feeds directly into operational reporting. If staff report they’re absent, timesheets are updated immediately, managers are informed and the data is used to build an attendance report. Everything is joined up, removing duplication and reducing risk.

The result is an environment where every department works from the same real-time data, finance, operations, HR, and site teams all looking at one version of the truth.

Built Around Accuracy and Efficiency

Assyst eliminates repetitive manual processes and reduces the potential for human error. Payroll teams spend less time checking data and more time analysing it. HR departments no longer chase missing forms and paperwork. Managers can verify attendance and authorise overtime instantly.

The time saved isn’t just about reducing workload, it’s about creating capacity for better service delivery and decision-making. With accurate data and automated processes, your leadership team can focus more on strategy rather than administration.

The software gives tangible gains with:

• Significant time savings in payroll processing.

• A dramatic reduction in pay disputes and manual adjustments.

• Faster reporting cycles and better cost control.

• A more connected and informed workforce.

• A system connected to the rest of your business.

Empowering Staff Through the Mobile App

One of Assyst’s most distinctive strengths lies in its staff app, a digital companion that brings control and clarity to every member of your team.

Employees can view works schedules, timesheets, and payslips; request holidays; and receive company updates directly from their phone. For many businesses, this is the first time they’ve had real-time access to this level of information. It builds trust, reduces queries, and reinforces accountability.

Managers benefit just as much. Through the same app, they can adjust work schedules, authorise overtime, and send shift specie messages and tasks to staff. The result is a fully connected workforce, where information flows both ways, from head office to the field, and from staff back to management, without delay or confusion. No text or WhatsApp messages that get deleted and impose on non working hours.

This focus on usability isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity in today’s mobile-first world. By putting accurate information in everyone’s hands, Assyst keeps teams managed, informed, engaged and empowered.

Supporting Employee Wellbeing with On-Demand Pay

People are the foundation of every successful operation. When staff feel valued and supported, performance improves and staff turnover falls. That’s why Assyst integrates On-Demand Pay, powered by Level, giving employees access to a portion of their earned wages ahead of payday.

It’s a modern, responsible benefit that supports financial wellbeing and strengthens loyalty, without creating additional work for your payroll team. The process is fully automated and reconciled within the next pay cycle, but crucially not by your payroll team, allowing you to offer the benefit without the administration through our technology and partnership with Level.

In competitive labour markets, offering On-Demand Pay can make a meaningful difference in recruitment and retention, demonstrating that your organisation cares about its people and embraces innovation that benefits them directly.

Flexible, Scalable, and Future-Proof

Assyst grows with your business. Whether you operate a single-region workforce or manage nationwide contracts, the system scales effortlessly. Adding new sites, users, or service divisions takes minutes, not weeks.

Because Assyst is cloud-based and modular, it’s easy to extend functionality over time, adding new integrations, reports, or bespoke developments as your needs evolve. Our in-house developers can tailor the system precisely to your requirements, ensuring it remains a perfect fit no matter how your business develops.

Building Partnerships

Perhaps most importantly, we don’t view Assyst as a one-time software licence. We view it as the beginning of a partnership.

Our UK-based support, proactive account management, and continuous development roadmap mean you’re never left standing still. Every two months, we meet with clients to review system performance, discuss updates, and explore opportunities for optimisation.

We don’t measure success by the number of installations; we measure it by how seamlessly Assyst becomes part of your day-to-day operation.
