FLIPPER's: The Recipe for a Busy Schedule
FLIPPER's Original Burger set out on a mission: to restore the reputation of the American-style burger in Belgium. Locally sourced ingredients, expertly crafted recipes, stylish decor, and exceptionally friendly service: here, the burger once again becomes a matter of quality and shared enjoyment. « The idea behind FLIPPER's is to bring everyone together around a product we all love, ultimately - with an emphasis on quality », sums up Basile, one of the co-founders.
Basile and his partner explain how Shyfter helps them manage their team daily and stay focused on what truly matters: quality on the plate.
The main advantage: easy team adoption
When launching a restaurant and deploying a new management tool, the biggest hurdle is never the software—it's adoption by the teams. And that's precisely where Shyfter scores points for Basile:
« I'd say Shyfter's biggest asset is its easy adoption by users. »
The app Shyfter Staff is designed to be picked up in minutes by any team member, from the chef to the runner. No heavy training, no 30-page manual — everyone finds their schedule, clock-ins, and messages directly on their phone.
Shyfter Talk: goodbye to 15 WhatsApp groups
Another key takeaway from the testimonial: internal communication. When managing a service team, information needs to circulate quickly — but most importantly, through the right channel.
« There's also the communication aspect with the teams — it allows us to have, with Shyfter Talk, a professional communication channel. We won't have 15 WhatsApp groups. It's a very practical daily tool for communicating with the teams. »
No more messages lost between Bob's vacation photos and Sunday night jokes. Shyfter Talk centralizes professional exchanges in a dedicated space, directly linked to the schedule and relevant teams. More fluidity, more clarity, and a real separation between employees' professional and personal lives.
A complete ecosystem, made in Belgium
And then there was the criterion that tipped the scales when making the choice:
« What we appreciated was that it was already a Belgian company, and that they offer a complete ecosystem. It's a one-stop shop for various systems and integrations with other partners. »
Beyond scheduling and communication, Shyfter integrates with other tools that run a restaurant. This allows for a comprehensive and accurate view of operations :
« There are really a whole host of features that allow for a fairly accurate prediction of the revenue we can generate, and to manage our costs a bit more precisely. »
For founders in a rapid growth phase, it's a crucial advantage: a single tool to manage scheduling, time tracking, communication and anticipate business — without having to juggle between five apps and three spreadsheets.
Shyfter in one word? « Complete! »
When asked to sum up Shyfter in a single word, Basile's answer comes quickly:
« Complete! It's a very comprehensive tool. For everything related to team management, there's no need for other small applications here and there. Everything is in place. It's very convenient. »
