### "Review of Leave Dates"

September 27, 2023

5.0

Pros

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

Cons

overall, 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

### "Time Saver product"

November 12, 2019

5.0

Leave Dates has moved us from a manual system to a more readily accessible and understandable more automated, customizable process.

Pros

The 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.

Cons

Educating 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.

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.

### "Changed how we plan time "

October 31, 2023

5.0

Pros

We love that it is super easy to make a request, and to action that request. The app is really intuitive, and allows us to plan holidays and leave on the go. Being able to sync with our work calendar is also extremely useful as it means we always know who is and isn't in the office

Cons

I find the billing page to be a bit of an annoyance, I think there could be an easier way of adjusting your plan - not a deal breaker though

Hi Harry, Thank you for your wonderful review! We are so pleased that you love Leave Dates and our mobile app. Our team are discussing ways to improve the billing page and we would love your feedback on your experience.

### "A great product, just needs a few tweaks!"

September 2, 2023

4.0

Pros

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.

Cons

It 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. It's built for annual leave requests and the other features don't quite fit the mould - but it's getting there!

Hey Harvey, Thank you for your fabulous review and feedback. In our recent update, we made it possible to create multiple leave requests, with more detail and better prompts. If there is something we can improve in this process for future updates, we would love to know more about how you use Leave Dates and the specifics around how we can improve this. If you would like to tell us more, please email hello@leavedates.com, we would love to hear from you. Kindest, Che

### "Simple Time Saver"

May 19, 2022

5.0

Good overall experience and saves a lot of time and paperwork.

Pros

Very easy to use. Easy to set up and easy for people to use and request holiday. Simple for managers to use. Saves a lot of time and paperwork.

Cons

It would be beneficial to be able to calculate the part years with bank holidays taking off the total as I have to work out pro rata and then take off the calculations. Also adding in company wide holidays (Christmas break) could be easier please.

Reason for choosing Leave Dates

Easy of use.

### "Easy to use"

August 31, 2023

4.0

Pros

Straight forward and easy to use. Quickly book dates off for annual leave. Can input dates into the system, and if the day is a bank holiday or a weekend, it recognises this and doesn't take off your annual leave.

Cons

Click on a day to book a day off, and it automatically goes for a half day instead of a full. But that's about it

Hi Conor, Thanks for leaving us a fabulous review, we are so please that you enjoy using Leave Dates. I have just double checked on our company account (using the desktop version), I'm in the 'My Year' section, and when I select a date the popup is coming up as full day. So I'm wondering if it might be a default setting within your account that we can simply switch. Send us an email to hello@leavedates.com, perhaps with a screenshot where you're running into trouble and we will help fix it up for you. Kindest, Che

August 23, 2023

5.0

Great experience, was easy to roll out and took little training

Pros

How intuitive it is and it's low costs in comparison to competitors

Cons

It took me a while to input everyone due to the excel form not translating but that could have been my error

Pros

August 9, 2023

5.0

Very positive experience. The impact it has had on my workforce has allowed them to control their own annual leave and absences, giving them a sense of empowerment.

Pros

This was a new system for me after working with many systems similar in the past and I can honestly say it has been seamless. From requesting leave to monitoring staff leave it is incredibly user friendly.

Cons

I would to be able to monitor lateness in the form on a calendar allowing us to track any tardiness.

Pros

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!

Cons

I do not know why but I can not change my birthday date, I would like to show it to my colleagues

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

### "Leave tracking made simple with Leave Dates"

October 23, 2023

5.0

It's a fantastic time-saving tool that's easy for everyone to engage with, request leave and get approvals and see how much leave is remaining at any point in time.

Pros

Leave Dates makes tracking leave simple. Approving leave and time-off requests couldn't be easier saving time for everyone.

Cons

It doesn't allow for calculating pro-rated holiday for part-time staff where public/bank holidays are also pro-rated in the Uk so this has to be calculated manually.
