Case Study: Da Vinci's Donuts achieves 90% faster scheduling and 66% faster payroll processing with Deputy

Owners at Da Vinci's Donuts can focus on what they love with Deputy

Da Vinci’s Donuts is a family-owned, Atlanta-based shop with two locations and about 13 employees. Owner/COO Andy Rudd was hampered by paper-based scheduling, time-consuming shift changes, payroll errors, and poor cross-location communication, creating inefficiencies in scheduling, payroll and staff coordination.

They implemented Gusto for payroll alongside Deputy for workforce management, integrating Deputy with Gusto and Square to centralize scheduling, timekeeping, payroll and communication. The result: scheduling time dropped by about 90%, payroll processing time fell by roughly 66% with fewer errors, overtime tracking became one‑click, and employees gained easy mobile access and real‑time updates.
