“When I started comparing options for a new system, I found that no one else had the level of automation that edays did. You can set up the templates per country, per person, per leave type… so edays was the solution that jumped out. From the offset I thought it was going to make our lives so much easier.

It’s made such a difference to us, I feel like edays has been there forever now! It is really intuitive and it’s great that managers are able to gain full visibility with the group calendars. We also have great rapport with the edays team and if we need something, they either help us with it, or look into getting new things developed to support us.”

“The rollout of edays was really straight forward and we felt supported. Having the team help us with implementation and being on hand with technical advice was really appreciated. And in terms of being able to easily handle the different working terms and conditions of different sites, it’s been great to have the support on managing this with the various templates and settings.”
