Pros

  • For managers and end users it is helpful to see on one and the same place information about all team attendance. We are happy to use it and truly recommend it to the other companies.

  • Layout and ease of use is the application primary advantage. It will provide good overview of your team's planned and unplanned vacations and absences from work.

  • It is considered great for planning and following up my leaves and sick-leaves as well as these of our team members. It is considered great for defining approval workflows.

  • It gives us as a team the great opportunity to compare our intentions concerning holidays, so to organize our work better.

Cons

  • I mean I can change it, but it's not saving, so it's a little confusing.

  • I'm not sure if this is a general "problem" or it is on my computer only, but when there are too many people, the colours begin to duplicate, and sometimes I cannot change them manually.

  • Inability to see sufficient information at a glance (supervisor or manager role).

  • I have a problem with printing the reports that I'm not sure that has developed the software in the company.print.

"One very good choise of NIK"

Overall: Timeoff.Guru helps us to improve the administrative process with free of paper which gives the platform. So this was really important for a team where most of the employees are home office based all over the countryside. The automatic statistics which we can generate save our time which is also good. For managers and end users it is helpful to see on one and the same place information about all team attendance. We are happy to use it and truly recommend it to the other companies.

Pros: Timeoff.Guru gives us an opportunity to administer employee attendances paper free which was really important to us. We really like that the platform is user friendly not only for the end users but also for the role of an administrator. Especially the mobile app. There is no need to make long training for new hiries how to use it, they just go into the app and can immediately proceed with requests without any help. The integration we passed through was a light process. It tooks us not so much effort to fulfill the templates and then the Guru team finished everything. We had no issues with changing the previous process with the implementation of the platform.

Cons: So far we can't talk about any cons of the product. All the existing features are really enough and cover our expectations. We don't find any difficulty using the platform.

"Very easy to use app - it has no learning curve. "

Pros: Layout and ease of use is the application primary advantage. It will provide good overview of your team's planned and unplanned vacations and absences from work.

Cons: Rare update cycles(or at least such that are visible to the user). Bugs are fixed rather slowly unless they are not critical. Inability to see sufficient information at a glance (supervisor or manager role).

Pros: It`s very easy to work with, saves time and efforts, our emplyees are very happy with it . I can export monthtly all the filled applications in an exel table and this is very convenient!

"recommend it to everyone"

Overall: Transparency, accuracy each employee sees exactly how many days has, and could plans them.

Pros: Easy to work and make detail reports depending on tasks. Mobile application. Integration with Google calendar

Cons: We have different numbers of PTO for part of the department. We need to calculate precisely how many days he/she has until the end of the year.

"- user and administrator - HR role "

Pros: - easy and convenient to use - available with mobile phones and tablets - intuitive interface - reports - calendar of the absences - quick approval of absences - notifications with e-mail and sms - less paper

Cons: I hope you are working on developing the "time off - for few hours of the day ", and you will offer it to us very soon :)

"Simple but user friendly web base platform"

Pros: Easy to use, user friendly, significantly improved our days off booking and monitoring. Colour options when displaying individual team members days off, is very useful (but works only up to a limited number of people on the team)

Cons: No possibility to split the day, e.g. to take only 1/2 day off. In the current version our organisation is using, we can take only the whole day off, not a shorter period. Also a point for consideration, introduce a "wishlist booking" or something similar which could help the team manager to carefully manage the long term team availability. This should be kind of pre-booking of your planned days off - an example summer or Christmas holidays when during a short term period almost everybody on the team would like to have holidays so it is important the team mangers understand the potential team availability.

"Easy to use software, great tool for teamwork and to work with, systematized, user-friendy view "

Overall: It really saves time, spares lots of emails between team members and eliminates the need for paper applications when days off are needed

Pros: I love the fact that after adding all the team members, I know who are the people I can rely on for the next week with just one glance. I like the simple view also

Cons: I'm not sure if this is a general "problem" or it is on my computer only, but when there are too many people, the colours begin to duplicate, and sometimes I cannot change them manually. I mean I can change it, but it's not saving, so it's a little confusing.

"I use the program a lot not only as a user, but also as an administrator. It`s a great product."

Overall: Less routine work, fewer adjustments.

Pros: Save a lot of routine work. The program is very user-friendly. We make fewer adjustments. The program ensures transparency.

"I use the software for almost an year and I am happy with it."

Overall: Time saving

Pros: It saves me a lot of time to plan, book or change my days off. I can easily see who of my colleagues is on holiday I who would be able to be my substitute during mine. I can easily see how many days from which year I have left I thus it's easiear to plan the whole year.

Cons: The interface is not very good looking. Showing everyone of the colleagues in a different colour is not the best option.

"The software makes it very easy to see all relevant information and organise business processes."

Pros: I can easily filter out the information I need from the one I don't, and switch between preferences.

Cons: The error message at login - it says "Unvalid user or password" and since I use various emails and passwords to log on to different platforms, it would be less confusing and would save a lot of time if the error message would tell me whether I got the user or the password wrong.

"I often use it to check if one of the other office staff is on vacation to plan the work week."

Pros: You always know which of your team is in vacation or sick, you have a history of your vacations, sending and approving is within an hour or two, a mobile application that gives me access and control wherever I am.

Cons: It would be good to have a detailed guide or more hints about what it is and showing what can be done.

"I am using it for planning my holidays. Also I can check when my colleagues planned their holidays."

Overall: Well, it saves me time and paper.

Pros: I like the most that it is very easy and simple for use. And also I can see who in my department is taking holiday, so I can plan mine. You can see also colleagues not only from your department but from entire company. I like that I can hide other people's holidays and see only mine.

Cons: Well, it doesn't send confirmation to your substitute, that will do your work for the holidays. So your are not aware if your substitute is available for the time you want to take holiday.

" I use TIMEOFF to follow the company policy concerning leaves, sick-leaves etc."

Pros: It is considered great for planning and following up my leaves and sick-leaves as well as these of our team members. It is considered great for defining approval workflows. It gives me an opportunity to check my taken sick-leaves, my rest days etc. anytime. It gives us as a team the great opportunity to compare our intentions concerning holidays, so to organize our work better.
