Absence, leave and time management solutions for your organisation

Not much. Because edays is accessed through a standard internet browser, it doesn’t require any software downloads. The system is securely hosted and maintained by us, which means it can be set up remotely. All we require is your current absence records and we’ll take care of the rest.

This very much depends on the complexities of your requirements as well as how soon data can be provided. However, for companies sized under 500 with minimal complexities, we get companies up and running within 30-days on average.

Data is stored on the world-leading Microsoft Azure cloud platform. By default, we use UK datacenters – UK South (London) and UK West (Cardiff), UK South being the primary location, with backups stored in UK West. All of your data is encrypted at all times, both at rest and in transit using the most modern encryption standards and algorithms. Learn more about our data and system security here.

edays absence management software is different to other absence monitoring software providers because our system is purpose built to be as customisable as possible, allowing HR and people managers to use it in ways that suit their organisation’s unique requirements. Our absence system supports part-time and full-time employees, and leave and absence can be recorded in either days or hours. We can handle leave carryover, overtime tracking, clocking in and out, and we enable organisations adhere to the EU Working Time Directive, among many other features. We also cater to large and global organisations with several locations – be it in one country or multiple. edays absence management software users can be separated into groups, with different leave entitlements and rules set for each one, meaning you can manage employees in one country differently to another. This way, you can ensure you remain globally compliant according to varying regulations around the world. This flexibility and configurability makes edays absence management software the leading choice for absence, leave and time management software.

We can also offer many industry-specific benefits, too. edays provides a streamlined platform for handling leave, absence and time tracking for organisations that have a mix of employees, including office and non-office based staff, part-time and full-time members of staff, and multiple locations in one country and/or around the world.
