While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Does what it says on the tin. What would make it better would be able to create a list of people to notify rather than having to add them for each and every absence.

Improve "Company Calendar page"

I like the application a lot however what you could definitely improve is the view of team absence ("company calendar". The calendar above is not readable, it's hard to guess what days are actually shown. It's also useless in my opinion to show there previous and next year, only the current year should be displayed.

Bug raport

Well. There are few bugs that could be fixed.

Eg. by default there is always past year selected from the calendar that makes annoying to always change it. It should be default this year as user might make absences for coming days not for his past days.
