# How has Leave Dates worked for checking leave allowance and booking time off? I like how simple and easy Leave Dates is to use, especially for quickly checking my leave allowance and booking time off without hassle. It also helps by keeping leave requests, balances, and team availability easy to view all in one place. I have not run into any significant issues so far. How has it been for you, and does it make leave management easier for your team too? ##### Post Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Graduate Eletrical Engineer - Net upvotes: 1 ## Comments ### Comment 1 It’s been great for me mainly because I can see the whole team’s availability in one view, which makes it easier to plan around who’s out. I also like being able to quickly check how much annual leave I have left without digging through anything. So far I haven’t run into any downsides. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 5 days ago - Author title: Paid Media Specialist ### Comment 2 I’ve found it really convenient for checking my own remaining annual leave and getting a clear rundown of what’s left, plus the annual overview of days already taken. Seeing the team’s time off in the same place helps me plan without going back and forth. I also like being able to put requests in outside work hours when it pops into my head. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 13 days ago - Author title: Conveyancing Assistant ### Comment 3 For me, the biggest win is how user friendly it is when I’m booking time off. I can quickly check if the dates I want are already booked by colleagues, which makes planning a lot easier. I also haven’t run into any issues so far, and it’s been really helpful just for knowing holiday availability at a glance. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 14 days ago - Author title: Accounts ### Comment 4 I’ve found the simple layout really helps when I’m checking both my team’s annual leave and the wider company calendar, so we can make sure we’ve always got enough staff to cover. The only hiccup I’ve hit is when I book leave for someone else, it sometimes selects me too, so I end up accidentally booking myself off at the same time. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Credit control manager ### Comment 5 I mainly use the app when I’m away from work, since it makes it easy to check what availability looks like without needing to be at my desk. I also like that I can log in online too, so I’m not tied to just one way of accessing it. I haven’t really run into any downsides so far. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Head of omboarding and compliance ### Comment 6 For us, it’s been really convenient that Leave Dates works well on both desktop and mobile, so I can check leave and make updates even when I’m away from my desk. The biggest benefit has been tracking annual leave and other absences in one place, which helps us avoid overlapping dates and plan coverage more smoothly. I honestly haven’t run into any gaps so far for what our company needs. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Forms Design Technician ### Comment 7 It has definitely made leave management easier for my team, mainly because it replaces the manual tracking and gives us a centralized view of requests and availability. That transparency helps us avoid overlapping holidays and plan ahead with fewer scheduling conflicts. The only thing I still wish for is more flexibility through extra customization options and stronger reporting. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Sr. PHP Developer ### Comment 8 I’ve found the portal really clear and user friendly, so I can tell where everything is straight away. It’s been especially helpful for quickly seeing who’s on holiday and when they’ll be back. One thing I still miss is being able to combine dates across different years and get a clearer view of next year’s holidays, including how many days I can carry over. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Marketing Assistance ### Comment 9 It’s made leave management much easier for our small Trust, mainly because setup and configuration were so simple and staff onboarding was straightforward with the guides available. We moved from paper forms and spreadsheets, so the time savings have been huge and staff can request changes seamlessly. The only thing I still wish for is the ability to set up leave dates to better manage flextime. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: Senior Administrator ### Comment 10 For me, Leave Dates has been really user-friendly, even though I am not very tech-savvy. Everything feels managed efficiently and professionally, which makes it easy to stay on top of things. I also use it to track business travel alongside professional and holiday leave days, so I can plan out my calendar year more confidently. ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 16 days ago - Author title: International Officer: Beverages and Breweries Sectors and Danone ## Related Product [Leave Dates](https://www.g2.com/products/leave-dates/reviews) ## Related Category [Absence Management](https://www.g2.com/categories/absence-management-software) ## Related discussions - [How well does Trello scale into a larger team?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/1-how-well-does-trello-scale-into-a-larger-team) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 6 - [Can we please add a new section](https://www.g2.com/discussions/2-can-we-please-add-a-new-section) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 0 - [Quantifiable benefits from implementing your CRM](https://www.g2.com/discussions/quantifiable-benefits-from-implementing-your-crm) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 4
