Empowering small businesses to succeed

At first glance, Payzer and Apploye belong to different worlds. One manages money, the other manages time. One counts transactions, the other counts working minutes. But both aim for the same thing — to give businesses confidence that everything is under control: finances and people alike.

Payzer was born out of financial workflows. It helps companies accept payments, track invoices, and connect clients to internal billing systems. Apploye emerged from a different pain — as a tool for monitoring, time tracking, and attendance, especially for remote or field teams.

Together, they represent two extremes of modern automation: “money without people” and “people without context.” But there are solutions that merge both perspectives — and that’s where Shifton comes in: a platform where finance, time, and process coexist in one system, and control never turns into surveillance.

Core Philosophy

Payzer views business through the lens of financial flows.

A client is a payment, an order is a transaction, a result is a number — the logic of precise figures.

Apploye sees business through human movement:

who’s working, for how long, where they are, what task they’re on, and in which status phase.

Shifton takes a broader view.

It unites both logics — time as a resource, money as a result, and management as the process connecting them.

Control and Transparency

Apploye delivers control: screenshots, GPS, timers, hourly reports. It’s useful — but can quickly turn into pressure.

Payzer doesn’t control — it records. It doesn’t know how the work was done; it only shows that the invoice is paid.

Shifton offers transparency without pressure. It displays progress, time, and movement — but without micromanagement. Everything is visible, yet not invasive: the manager understands where the team is, and the team feels trusted.

Flexibility

Payzer is strict — focused on transactions, not processes.

Apploye is straightforward — tracking, reports, statistics.

Shifton is alive. You can adjust workflows on the go — add statuses, checklists, signatures, files, and forms.

It doesn’t require heavy implementation — it adapts to your business naturally, like fabric fitting form.

User Experience

Payzer is built for accountants and financial managers. The interface feels formal, rigid, and cold.

Apploye is simple but utilitarian — practical, not inspiring.

Shifton feels warm and intuitive. It’s made for live work, not dry reporting. The interface “breathes”: maps, statuses, tasks, filters — everything is close, clear, and ready.

Scalability and Teams

Payzer works best in environments with finance departments, accounting teams, and centralized payment systems.

Apploye suits remote teams, where knowing who’s working now is essential.

Shifton bridges both worlds. It’s equally valuable for an office manager and a field technician. Each sees their own dashboard, while the owner sees the full picture.

Reporting

Payzer builds financial analytics — totals, deadlines, outstanding balances.

Apploye measures time and productivity.

Shifton creates meaningful reports. Every task contains the full story: who, when, where, how long, with what, and with what outcome. You can export reports to Excel or PDF — but often, you don’t need to. Everything is visible right on the dashboard.

Security and Privacy

Apploye sometimes raises concern among employees — constant monitoring, GPS tracking, timers.

Payzer, by contrast, is completely detached from the human side.

Shifton keeps the balance. It records work time and routes, but only within assigned tasks, never invading personal space. It’s control — but with respect.

Cost and Value

Payzer is priced like a financial service — licenses, fees, subscriptions.

Apploye is more affordable but limited in scope.

Shifton stays universal — both in cost and meaning. Everything essential is included in one plan, and its true value lies not in modules but in connection — in how everything works as one.

Support and Development

Payzer updates rarely and by strict schedule.

Apploye follows its roadmap but rarely evolves beyond core monitoring.

Shifton evolves dynamically. New features appear every two to three weeks — small, meaningful, user-driven improvements. Bugs are fixed quickly, and updates are shaped by real-world feedback.

Shifton’s support feels like partnership, not a helpdesk — it doesn’t just respond; it helps you move forward.

Conclusion

Payzer gives confidence in numbers.

Apploye gives confidence in discipline.

But real businesses need confidence in the process itself.

Shifton unites what Payzer and Apploye keep apart — financial precision and human flexibility. It doesn’t oppose people and numbers — it connects them with purpose.
