Microsoft Shifts covers the basics inside Teams. Octofi is built for 24/7 operations that have outgrown them, with time-off accruals, live status from Teams presence, follow-the-sun scheduling, and labor analytics.
Moving off Shifts doesn't mean leaving Microsoft. Octofi connects to the tools your team already uses.
Single sign-on on web and mobile, with no separate passwords to manage.
Teams presence feeds the Activity Status dashboard, so status stays current without anyone updating it by hand.
Profile photos, titles, and hire dates can sync from Microsoft 365, so tenure-based accruals stay accurate.
