### "Easy and Efficient Leave Management Tool"

March 25, 2026

4.0

Overall, Leave Dates has streamlined our leave management process and improved transparency within the team. It saves time and reduces confusion.

Pros

Leave Dates is simple and intuitive, making it easy to request and track time off. The approval workflow is smooth, and notifications keep everyone updated. I especially like the clear calendar view, which helps avoid scheduling conflicts.

Cons

The reporting features could be more detailed, and the mobile experience sometimes feels limited compared to the desktop version.

### "I'd recommend"

November 26, 2025

5.0

Pros

The system is very easy to use and provides a clear overview of your work colleagues' plans for the week. The layout is clear simple.

Cons

I think that it could allow us to select multiple days more easily. Now it's a bit rigid when you try to do multi-selection.

### ""Simple, Affordable, and Perfect for Our Team""

June 11, 2025

5.0

Our overall experience with Leave Dates has been very positive. The pricing is great, and the ease of use really stands out—especially in our industry, where not all employees have access to a computer or are confident with technology. Having a simple, easy-to-use app makes a big difference and has worked brilliantly for our team.

Pros

I really like how easy Leave Dates is to use. The interface is straightforward, and it works seamlessly on mobile devices, which makes it really convenient for our employees to access and manage their leave on the go.

Cons

The only thing I can think of is that it hasn’t yet expanded to include functionality for staff to input their timesheets. I really like the product and how easy it is to use for managing staff leave, so I’d have high expectations if they ever introduced a timesheet feature.

### "Leave Dates - our 3rd year of using it!"

May 20, 2025

5.0

Really good from the start, easy to use and support when needed has been great. Invoicing is easy and downloading reports makes life much easier!

Pros

That we can keep track of all our staff members in one place. The calendar can be looked at as a whole, we can colour code leave types

Cons

That all day lengths are the same. Our staff work between 5 and 10 hour days depending on their shift pattern so each holiday day has to be changed individually

March 11, 2025

4.0

I am satisfied with your app, at times I get confused how the reports are read.

Pros

The ease of using the app. could improve with better reporting and guide line on regionwise requirements.

Cons

I cannot the desired reports sometimes. Option to add paid /unpaid/Statutory Pay. App should give a guideline.

### "Simple and Easy Leave Management"

July 3, 2025

5.0

Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use leave management system. One of the standout features is the ability to set up leave policies based on employee joining dates — something even many expensive apps don't offer. It would be great to see a complete employee profile and a letter request module added in the future. That would really turn this into a complete HR management solution.

Pros

Simple and easy leave management system. Can set up leave policy based on employee joining dates. This is really good, even some expensive app doesn't have this.

Cons

Should have a full employee profile and letter request module. This will make the app complete HR management system.

November 20, 2025

5.0

As above, very pleased and cost-effective. We were looking for something simple that employees would find easy to use.

Pros

It offers seamless administration and employee management. Easy for not only us managers but employees too!

Cons

Honestly, no cons. It's effective in its simplicity. Whilst I've been using it I haven't encountered any bugs. And I cannot attest for somebody with a much bigger team than I.

### "Leave Dates does everything we need it to do."

July 2, 2025

5.0

We use leavedates as the company wide booking system for work leave managament. It's easy for both employees and approvers to use.

Pros

Simple to use, easy to understand interface, syncs well with other calendars and is cost effective! We can'y see us moving away.

Cons

Nothing in particular - it could potentially have slack intergration which would allow us to understand who is out of office directly from there?

Works well for management And staff and easy to set up. Anual leave has been so much easier to plan.

Pros

### "Wouldn't want to use any other system."

May 13, 2025

5.0

Overall enjoyable, easy to use and makes submitting and tracking leave really easy.

Pros

I have used other systems to track leave in other jobs and none are as good as leave dates. I love how easy it is so track my annual leave, TOIL, compassionate leave and other types of leave. I love being able to see my calendar in full and see other people in my organisations leave. The app is also great for managing leave on the go.

Cons

Nothing in particular, maybe having to log in through the main leave dates site that is also about encouraging more business. Having a separate site for users might be useful

December 15, 2025

Amazing system which is easy to use. great UI, and seamless connectivity. Amazing customer service and I feel like a valued customer.

Pros

It is a simple and intuitive system to use, the UI is easy to navigate and it connects seamlessly to our systems. No complaints. Highly recommend.

Cons

That it only covers leave, and not other aspects of the HR process. IT is a great system and should be expanded.

May 1, 2025

Great product, Easy to use, you can see all people within the business which makes it a really simple to manage teams

Pros

Easy to use and a great way to manage teams across the business, you can see all employees when they are booked off which means you are able to manage staff to ensure your not left short handed.

Cons

Nothing I think it is a great product, at my business it wasn't broken down into project teams which I think would be really useful however I am sure that there is a feature that allows this to be done.

### "Easy to learn and use, saves time due to nice features"

April 30, 2025

5.0

Very easy to use, some automatic features save you a lot of time. Thanks to email notifications I know exactly when somebody is going take a day off and I can plan accordingly without a need of constant checking / logging in.

Pros

Simple to setup but contains all the much needed features we need in our team. Automatic transfer of not used holidays into next year (based on settings), automatic setup of public holidays, notifications if somebody book holiday, approval mechanisms etc. Also it has nice user friendly design which helps with navigating through the page (you easily find what you are looking for without manual) and browsing pages is fast and efficient. And for 5 employees it´s free. :)

Cons

I really cant think of anything even If I try my hardest. :) Maybe extend free plan for more users! :D But fortunately for our small company 5 is enough.

Leave Dates is a user friendly system that is easy to use, provides value for money and easy to implement. The app provides added flexibility to Managers to use the system.

### "Fully recommend Leave Dates to all companies big or small"

October 30, 2024

5.0

This is a great platform. It is so affordable, reliable, easy to use and works great for absence management. Truly a 10/10

Pros

Extremely easy to use, has great customisable features (like public holidays, types of leave) and calculates everything for you (pro rata leave, carry on, remaining leave etc). Very user friendly

Cons

The only thing I would add is an option to block something simultaneously on everyone's calendar for multiple days (e.g, if the office is closed for a week, to add that full week as a type of holiday across all countries)

Alternatives considered

[Personio](https://www.capterra.com/p/158622/Personio/)[Humaans](https://www.capterra.com/p/219477/Humaans/)

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

I did not require all of the things their packages would offer - I use different platforms for a lot of things (e.g, time tracking) and these companies were not flexible to offer the absence management software alone.

Better than our old system, which was a manual Excel system and took a lot of time to administer and use.

Hi Adam, Thank you for your fantastic review, it's great that you have found Leave Dates so helpful in your business. You should be able to apply for leave across two separate months just by inputting the start and end dates in your request form. Sometimes your account admin can set limits on time off, based on your company policies, ask them if there are any restrictions on the number of days off. If you still have difficulty, you can submit a support ticket via our website and we will try to help you understand why you're having difficulty with it.

Leave dates has been instrumental in helping us track, manage and get visualisation across our leave when we opened a 2nd office.

Pros

Leave dates is super easy to use, it was rolled out internally very quickly because it's so user friendly.

Cons

Nothing, it does exactly what we'd want it to do. If I had one thing to say it would be to vary the person on the homepage of the website, the guy looks cool but you could switch him up for a couple of others from time to time.
