Easy and convenient

I was skeptical to use Leave Dates as I’m used to a more personal approach when booking leave but I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how easy and effective it is to use!

PROS

As a shift worker working late evenings and nights it was always hard to talk to a manager about booking leave. Leave Dates makes it much more convenient and easy which is a massive relief!

CONS

As I’m on a separate rota to the majority of the team, when I book leave it frequently tells me that I’m exceeding the number of people allowed off even though it doesn’t apply to me.

Vendor Response

Hi Emily, Thank you for your review, we really appreciate you taking the time to review us. Our support team may be able to help you configure your account to make the excess notification disappear for you. Shoot us an email to hello@leavedates.com and we will look into it for you. 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.

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.

Best planning tool

It is amazing planning tool and very user friendly.

PROS

1. Dashboard where you can see yourself and your peers where they are scheduled and if they are on leave or not.

CONS

1.There is no option of putting flexible hours for eg - I shall be working from this much time to this much time. instead I have to put that under Client work schedule.

You are on the right track with this

We had the problem of not knowing who's online and who's offline. with remote teams around the world, we have a hard time keeping track of time offs.

PROS

Ease and straight to the point. It helps everyone know who's going to be in the office and who's away for the day and upcoming days.

CONS

As approver of time off, most of the email communication goes straight to junk mail. Sometimes people don't take their well deserved days off because it wasn't approved on time. It creates resentment from the team towards who approves them. It would be nice to get a notification other than email (I receive about 60 emails a day). Integration with Outlook calendars to set an "Out of the office" automatically is must needed as well.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your positive review Luis. We're sorry to hear that the email notifications are going to your junk mail, it may be worth whitelisting our domain name. Alternatively, you can also receive push notifications for requests and approvals using our mobile app on Android or iOS.

Just what we were looking for

It has been fantastic, we were using an excel spreadsheet before and this has made my role so much easier and all our users like Leave Dates as well. It looks great and it is easy to use. If there are any problems [Sensitive content hidden] at Leave Dates replies and fixes really quickly - or explains how I am doing wrong!

PROS

The Next 7 Days feature is great and something I refer to every day

CONS

Some functions are a little clunky like scrolling through the months or removing/swapping a working from home day or similar when all future dates need changing too.
