Since 1983, Asgard Systems Inc. (Hamilton, Ontario) has been a leader in employee scheduling solutions, and today its Asgard Scheduling Software offers powerful scheduling, time-tracking, and shift management tools tailored for film and television crews. With decades of software evolution behind it, Asgard gives production teams the precision, flexibility, and automation they need to manage complex shooting schedules.

Purpose-Built for Film & TV Crews

Shift schedules and roster management

Time off, attendance, absences, and vacations
