Plan and schedule

Project and job management

Structuring projects and orders

Multi-day productions consist of many dates that belong together. In CrewBrain you bundle them into a project with main and sub-jobs, assign numbers and status colours and keep setup, show and dismantling in view as one unit – without maintaining every single day.

Task management

Task management

Create, assign and track tasks – job- and project-related as well as private. That way your team keeps open to-dos in one place instead of spreading them across dates, notes and emails.

CrewBrain WebApp

Smartphone app

So that you can use all the information in CrewBrain at any time, even when travelling, the smartphone app provides access to CrewBrain’s most important information and functions. Besides access to the data of your events, your staff can also record working hours directly on their smartphone and have them stored automatically.

Interfaces

Interfaces

The ability to exchange data between different programs is becoming increasingly important. For this reason CrewBrain offers an openly documented API interface, which allows access to nearly all objects in the database. This way you can create any workflow with third-party or self-developed software. For some software solutions we also offer ready-made interfaces.

Time, payroll and reporting

CrewBrain time recording

Time recording with flexitime

A flexitime account can be set up in CrewBrain for permanent staff. Hours worked can then be recorded conveniently using the time clock in the smartphone app, or subsequently by manually recording the hours worked for the respective event. Holiday days and, if required, prescribed breaks are deducted automatically.

CrewBrain statements

Not only can you manage your staff with CrewBrain, you can also communicate directly over a central platform.
