We really like this product!

overall we like the product, it solves our questions within this holiday/leave topic.

PROS

Easy to use, easy to manage.Provides great views, and its easy to build in the payroll process as well with the reports.

CONS

there is nothing like that. we had a minor google calendear integration bug, but the LeaveDates team resolved it, and provided continuous communication over the progress.

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

there were some hungarian alternatives, but usability and price was the main factor. as we are using this product only for tracking leaves it is just enough for us.

Vendor Response

Hi Dénes, Thank you for choosing Leave Dates and taking the time to send in a fabulous review. Our support team are true superstars and we are very pleased that we got that issue sorted for you. Kindest, Che

Great system!

Great benefits with allowing different team leaders to approve requests. The department feature is excellent and provides autonomy and control over ones annual leave.

PROS

It's so easy to use for our employees, and so easy to manage as an administrator.

CONS

Sometimes the requests do not notify everyone that has been added to the notify list.

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

We chose Leave Dates because we have international offices and it was easier to keep everything on one platform.

A Fantastic Piece of Kit

Leave Dates has revolutionised the way we that we do our HR. Before, everything was tracked with bits of paper and spreadsheets. It wasn't as transparent as I wanted for employees. Leave Dates has brought in transparency for me, department managers and members of staff, collating information into one clean place .

PROS

For me, the best thing about Leave Dates is how easy it has been to set up and port all of my current information over. The clear user interface is so easy to use, even for staff who are less technologically minded and it's brilliant that it has an app.

CONS

I'd like it if there was a way of setting up 2 stage approval for leave, for example, an employee could request leave if approved by their manager it would come to me for final sign-off.

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

It was much more reasonably priced! And it has an app!

Vendor Response

Hi William, Thank you for taking the time to leave your fabulous review. We really appreciate your suggestion for two-stage approval, and we love hearing how we can improve Leave Dates. It is great to hear that you love using Leave Dates on desktop and mobile. Kindest, Che

Great tool

We needed something very simple to keep track of our small team's leave requests, approvals & allowance. Leave Dates absolutely did the job. Very simple to understand, the free version has everything we need so far and it's good to know that it will be pretty cheap to upgrade as & when we need to.

PROS

Easy to view & understand annual leave Can track TOIL

CONS

No issues so far Had to persuade team that this would be a simpler solution than using a spreadsheet - which it is!

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

Using this software is much simpler than tracking holidays on spreadsheets

Clean and easy to use interface

I had been with Leavedates for about 3-4 years. Started as a free user while managing a smaller team and when my team grows, we opted to pay for the service

PROS

I had been using Leavedates for a few years already and I see clear and great improvement over time. Sure there are other options out there for manage leave application; but I do appreciate the modern and wonderful looking UI.

CONS

I wish there are option to switch different type of calendar when applying for leave; because sometimes it is a bit tricky to select the actual day in the month on the monthly view.

Reasons for switching to Leave Dates

I only need a standalone leave management system and this works. My previous supervisor was using a tracking sheet on Google Sheet but I didn't like how manual it is.

Hi Phui, Thank you for your wonderful review, it is amazing that you have been with us for so long and noticed the improvements we have made over time. Stay tuned as we have updates coming very soon, you can follow us on LinkedIn to see them first. https://bit.ly/3V3LDKq Kindest, Che

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.

PROS

Very easy to use. Easy to set up and easy for people to use and request holiday. Simple for managers to use. Saves a lot of time and paperwork.

CONS

It would be beneficial to be able to calculate the part years with bank holidays taking off the total as I have to work out pro rata and then take off the calculations. Also adding in company wide holidays (Christmas break) could be easier please.

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.

PROS

How easy it is to use, very visible for heads of departments to manage their staff.

CONS

Customisable 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.

A great product, just needs a few tweaks!

PROS

It's really useful to be able to view when employees are on annual leave, taking time off, working remotely or working at events offsite.

CONS

It can be difficult to input the different pieces of information sometimes. It would be easier to just click and select the different options rather than having to send requests through each time. It's built for annual leave requests and the other features don't quite fit the mould - but it's getting there!
