We really like this product!
overall we like the product, it solves our questions within this holiday/leave topic.
PROSEasy to use, easy to manage.Provides great views, and its easy to build in the payroll process as well with the reports.
CONSthere 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.

Very good it has transformed our recording of leave and time in lieu and also sickness which has helped those staff who forgot to log or take their TOIL to have a better work life balance and those who are sick a lot it is easier to see patterns and be able to monitor sickness
PROSThe ability for employees to request leave remotely and for authorisation to happen remotely and it is all tracked on one calendar to avoid to many people off at one time
CONStoggling between hours and days, I forget to do this.

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

So easy to use!
Excellent! Easy & great for the team overview!
PROSAgain it's so easy and comprehensive. While it was a bit weird at first to calculate leave by hours, it has become so much more useful, especially on a day to day basis when you stay later or leave early
CONSNothing really, as mentioned the 'breakdown by hours seemed strange but better in the long run

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.

Simple and functional
Fantatsic Couldn't complain at all. We are new customers but based on our experience so far I can see us being long-term ones. As I mention previously in my review, the product is superb but it's also worth mentioning the excellent support we have received. It's always prompt and every informative and it absolutely contributed to our decision to adopt Leave Dates as well as our success deploying it to date.
PROSThe simplicity of the entire system The system as a whole is very simple to navigate and use. It doesn't try and do more than what it needs to do so there are no complex layers to try and find your way around. Everything is so streamlined it makes it easy to learn and therefore deploy. We recently moved from an analogue leave diary for 12 staff to Leave Dates and despite the initial hesitations (due to some staff uncertainty around using a computer) everyone is fully on board having seen the system in action.
CONSWould have liked to see a few more options with leave types This is a "criticism" very specific to our needs but being able to default certain leave types to certain days of the week would have been great for us. We also were trying to prevent leave being booked on days the business is closed, simply to minimise booking errors but found a simple enough work-around.
Reason for choosing Leave Dates
Simplicity - the system meets all our needs without being complicated Pricing - excellent value for money Support - it's prompt and detailed, but delivered in a easy-to-understand way

Hi Emmet, thank you for taking the team to write this review. It is so nice to hear from happy customers like you.

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

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.

Easy to understand and use
The user interface is incredibly intuitive and user-friendly. Setting up my profile and inputting my leave dates was a breeze. I love how the app allows me to categorize different types of leaves, whether it's a vacation, sick day, or personal time, making it easy to see at a glance how much time I have available.Another feature I appreciate is the Leave Balance tracker. It keeps me informed about how much leave I have left for the year, which is incredibly useful for planning future trips and making sure I don't exceed my allotted time off.Overall, Leave Dates has become an essential tool in my work and personal life. It's efficient, reliable, and has made managing leave dates a breeze. I'm extremely satisfied with this app, and I'm sure you will be too. Give it a try—you won't be disappointed!
CONSI do not know why but I can not change my birthday date, I would like to show it to my colleagues
Vendor Response
Hi Vini, Your review is fabulous, thank you for taking the time to send it in. I'm assuming because of your issue with inputting your birthday that you are not using Leave Dates as an admin. Your admin can add your birthday for you, let them know that you want to see your cupcake emoji on the day. I have also passed this onto our development team, to see if we can put this option in user profiles also. Thank you again for your wonderful review, we are very pleased that you enjoy using Leave Dates. Kindest, Che

Review of Leave Dates
the system is extremely user-friendly and I adopted the new system within a week after its introduction. Staff find it easy to use and have a mobile version for them to key in their leave without needing them to call in or write in to apply for leave. Can attached documents as proof of leave
CONSoverall, i'm satisfied with the product. i think the least thing i dont like is implementing the holidays as i have to adjust it every year. If can implement labour law guidelines in and adjust based on the leave they will have based on the parameters. i think it will make setting up each year easier
Reason for choosing Leave Dates
cheaper, easy to use, and implement

Hi Damien, Thank you for your wonderful review and valuable feedback.

A great product, just needs a few tweaks!
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.
CONSIt 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.
