In short

Gumb is a shift planning app for internal teams. Team leads set up early, late or weekend shifts as events, employees report their availability with one click, and fixed assignments are then marked with a star. Planned absences show up early, changes reach everyone by push notification and email, and every site plans in its own group scheduler. Gumb has no time tracking or payroll.
