I also liked the quick replies to my questions and concerns. But I am very displeased with contract renewal policies. Edays is not customer-oriented. Pros User-Friendly Interface Mobile Accessibility Customizable Absence Types Cons 1\. The interface is user-friendly but it would be good to have a separate field where managers would see pending approvals, not in the Ring notification tab which is very small and almost invisible and contains other notifictions as well. 2. No possibility to export the leaves as an excel file. Review Source Response from edays Absence Management August 15, 2024 Hi Mariam, Thank you for your review.

HR Manager Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very satisfied customer" February 21, 2024 5.0 Our overall experience with EDays is that it is a really easy system to use not only from a management perspective but also from a user perspective. The help given by \[sensitive content hidden\] and her team has been most appreciated. Pros When we needed help the most due to being let down by another software company EDays stepped up to the plate. \[sensitive content hidden\] our Customer Success Manager and her team's assistance was critical to Vacgen not loosing valuable data and also keep a great product available to all our staff.

Senior User Administration Manager Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Edays" November 16, 2023 5.0 Very, very positive! Edays has been well received by end users, with overwhelmingly positive feedback and has been formally accepted into service. Pros The service provide users with a new modern multi-platform solution for managing leave and provides new capabilities for managers to visualise all of their team members leave requests. Edays is be hosted in the ‘cloud’ and accessible from all our corporate that have an internet connection using Single Sign On (SSO). Cons There were essentially only two main issues. Firstly, out of the box Edays was unable to work with the sheer number of different rota patterns in HSE (over 500). However, with close collaboration and a degree of re-tooling, we successfully overcame this. Second, we had to work with Edays to make the application function for adaptive equipment users (JAWS/Dragon etc.), in so far as these users / line managers, were able to book and approve leave. Edays have were encouraged to seek and achieve WCAG accreditation. Review Source Response from edays Absence Management December 7, 2023 Hi Ged, Thank you for the great review!

HR Operations Manager Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Edays - forwarding thinking and flexible Absence Management system" September 16, 2022 5.0 Great product, user friendly whether an employee inputting absence, a line manger approving absence, creating reports or HR applying new rules, the system is totally adaptable to apply changes. For instance, the Queens state funeral with the additional BH on 19th Sept - even before the Edays team had sent a communication out on how to apply the additional day (which in itself is excellent customer service) - our HR team had already actioned this in Edays on the morning of the announcement - this is because the system is so intuitive to use and the team felt confident in applying the change. Overall excellent product, excellent customer service who are always there at the end of the phone and we have an excellent relationship with Harry Warren, who is always at hand to talk through any issues. Pros The flexibility to adapt to local country nuances (such as Netherlands, Belgium, France, Hungary) these are very complex in their legislative requirements however working with Edays and the development team (shout out to Harry Warren) - we are all set up and are working brilliantly Cons Tenure rules and rolling absence tracking Reason for choosing edays Edays provided future state and innovative solutions with the flexibility to adapt to all our EMEA countries. The calendar view was also a big win for our employees and line managers. We are really looking forward to the release of the APP. Review Source Response from edays Absence Management September 21, 2022 Hi Lynne, Thank you for your detailed and supportive review, we're glad you are loving edays and find it very user-friendly. edays is great at being able to adapt to changing circumstances and manage very complex requirements.

The team listen to what customers want and implement these to support your company. Employees find it easy to use and love that it can be used on their mobiles. Being able to reach other platforms we use through the e-days is a really good feature so employee only have to go to one place. Pros The time submission feature is great we have been able to go paperless on timesheets since we had this feature added. Cons Alerts to sickness trigger points so we can be reminded when meetings need to take place Reason for choosing edays e-days looked more user friendly Switched from [Cascade](https://www.capterra.com/p/252978/Cascade/) We wasn't getting the features that we needed Review Source Response from edays Absence Management October 19, 2023 Hi Sam, Thank you for a wonderful review!

HR Business Partner Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use Absence Management System" May 18, 2022 4.0 E-days has significantly helped our unauthorised leave management, and has strengthened our processes on sickness. Pros E-days is super easy to use for both employees and approving managers. Cons You cannot customise built in forms which means we are unable to utilise some of the features ie Return to Work form.

Pros Easy to use and set up. Has good visuals and you can get an overview of absence and planned absence easily, which helps for staff planning.
