Best Leave Management software

Booking is genuinely fast: employees drag over dates on a shared calendar and submit a request in a few clicks, from a laptop, phone, or tablet, which removes email chains and manual forms from the process.

Employees get 24/7 self-service access to their leave entitlement via web and mobile apps, so staff can check what they're owed and plan time off without chasing HR.

Plan names, prices, and tier limits are not displayed on the homepage, so buyers must visit the pricing page directly to compare costs and match seat counts to headcount before committing.

It is a dedicated leave planner, not a full HR platform—there is no payroll, recruitment, or broader HR functionality, so companies needing an all-in-one suite will need additional tools.

Scheduling, leave, time tracking and payroll-ready reporting sit in one login

Free iOS and Android app keeps staff shifts, clock-ins and swap requests on their phones

No published per-user prices, so you must request a quote to compare real costs

Payroll hand-off depends on your provider being supported, with Xero named and open APIs for the rest

Billing follows activity: you're charged only for users marked active the previous month, so seasonal or dormant staff cost nothing in months they don't use the system.

Every feature ships on the standard Monthly Plan — scheduling, HR, leave, documents, time clock, multi-venue, messaging, and reports — with no tiered feature gates to pay through.

No fixed prices are published anywhere — you must drag the slider on the pricing page to see your actual monthly cost, which makes quick budget comparisons impossible.

Live support runs 08:00 to 20:00, so late-night or early-morning shift emergencies fall outside published help hours.

Every plan includes unlimited users, so costs scale with functionality and monthly shift volume rather than per-seat fees.

Automated position-matching assigns shifts to qualified, role-matched staff, letting managers build complex rotas in minutes instead of hours.

No free trial or refund policy is displayed on the pricing page, so you must book a demo to evaluate and confirm cancellation terms before committing.

Exact pricing isn't transparent: costs start from £47/month but depend on chosen functionality and monthly shift volume, requiring a quote call to get real numbers.
