Solid leave management platform
That I can track my and my team's leave allowance and can better plan leaves, holidays and even company events when we know that no one will be on leave. I like that we can administer different types of leaves that helps accounting. Also like that it intergrates with Google Calendar.

An excellent system!!!

PROSLeaves Dates makes it so easy to track our employees holidays, sick days, and other absences. Everything is so easy to check now, and does away with arguments about how many days leave somebody has left etc.

Time Saver product
Leave Dates has moved us from a manual system to a more readily accessible and understandable more automated, customizable process.
PROSThe Leave Dates software has lifted a lot of the burden of manually tracking time off by staff. Staff can quickly submit their requests for time off. It was easy for staff to self-educate (for the most part) on how it works. Response from support staff has been excellent.
CONSEducating our staff how to book off part days or just hours - but that is coming along. For recording Stat days worked, I was having problems making notes, but have since received assistance from support staff. Getting our Managers to review requests for leave as the requests get buried in their email system.
Reason for choosing Leave Dates
After several days of trying to customize Power Apps to our situation, finding Leave Dates was a breath of fresh air. There was no question after that of using Leave Dates.
Reasons for switching to Leave Dates
The ease with which we could track leave and also the ease of importing data. Cost was also a factor - it is more cost effective to use this system than manually manipulating data.
Vendor Response
Hi Cheryl, we're so pleased to hear that you're happy with the product and support. You may find that our mobile apps would help your managers avoid the dreaded email problem as they will get push notifications of new approval requests which they can deal with on the go.

A holiday booking app that is great value for money
great product, and can monitor different types of absence
PROSEasy to add different types of absence and approvers/depts. Bank holidays are added as well as weekends and works out the holidays when they start part way though the year
CONSWhen you need to add more employees, they credit and invoice from that moment on rather than adding the 5 or 10 extra people for the remainder of the year

looked easy to use, was value for money and did what i needed it to do

Leave Dates makes it easier to track everyone's leave
The Wall Chart. It's a nice user interface that shows my department members or everyone in our company. Everyone will be able to know who is in the office or not instantly through the Wall Chart.
CONSI want to allocate a leave allowance for some employees with some rules. It's not possible at the moment.Ex: For the first 6 months the newly joined employee only has a half day leave per month.

Beautiful wall chart, super intuitive staff scheduler app
Our firm was looking for an app that could visually show the location of each team member initially. What we found in LeaveDates was a vacation and leave tracker with approver capabilities and which we now also use to show which staff member is working on which project (lite version of a Gantt chart). Good ye Excel tables thank you LeaveDates! Excellent app and best value I found on a user/month cost basis.
PROS- Wall chart is beautiful and information rich - admin panel and approver mgmt user interface are simple and clear - generating reports is quick and effective - customer support has been excellent, the designer team even added a feature I requested within 5 days of my ask - so useful, our firm uses it for both leaves and project assignments - great android iOs app available with most features available for free - stat holidays built-in for all countries - fully customizable leave types and allowances per types - schedule can be edited up to the hour
CONS- no print option for wall chart - staff can edit or remove time entries once they are approved with no further request or approval
Reason for choosing Leave Dates
- wall chart - gorgeous colors - ease of use - ease of implementation - seamless communication with support team - excellent mobile companion app - not overly complicated like most apps I tried
Vendor Response
Hey Edouard, we love the way you guys have embraced Leave Dates for all your scheduling needs. Thank you for taking the time to write this positive review and please do keep the new ideas coming in.

Excellent System exactly what we needed
Love the system, we are a Charity with a small amount of people but when I joint there was no holiday authorisation, good recording of holidays taken or what was left to take, they had a very complicated system until I found Leave dates, now its a lot more clearer for all staff and heads a like.
PROSHow easy it is to use, very visible for heads of departments to manage their staff.
CONSCustomisable Reports, sometimes the standard ones are just a little to restrictive for what we need. Toil is a little complicated to get you head around.
Reason for choosing Leave Dates
There was no other systems that I was looking at, the charity needed to look for a solution that was economical but really did the job, but not undervaluing what the system was designed for.
