      Of course they have an ancient Lathem system running on XP that I P2V onto the server. They have a network connected pin pad terminal that the hourly employees use to clock in and out.
      But no one has the software. A single user used RDP to connect to the XP system on Mondays and get the time from the previous week.

      This is almost exactly like what we use, but it at least has an employee portal where they can check their hours and request time off and stuff. It's so bad, but it's still working so I get no love on upgrading it.

      Oh, their current system might have a portal that can be set up, but they never have, and it is so old, I will not use it for anything new.

        Desktop application only?

        it's a web app, I'm sure you can connect with anything. Let me spin it back up real quick and check if it looks decent on mobile.

          @JaredBusch It's pretty fugly and near impossible to use on my iPhone, so it's probably not going to work very well for you.

            Their "pricing" page is confusing as hell.monthly for each app and monthly for users. but it says unlimited users free. Such a mess.

            I'll pay their $12/month for Leaves if there is no user limit and this actually works well.

              It looks like if you only need one "app" in this case the "Leaves" app, it would be free. The pricing applies once you add more than one app.

              Also not sure if the app is actually "Leaves" or if the app is the entire HR package because it would be hard to implement Leaves without the Employees app also...

                  We use Workday and one of the features is requesting time off. They call it Absence and after selecting the days, you will select the type of absence.

                        Nope. No pricing listed. I have always refused to do business with a company that will not publish pricing.

                          We ended up "not needing a solution" so I never even got to the point of testing it.

                          If I recall it's mostly support. If you don't need the support then you'd just host it yourself.

                                Paylocity seems to work well... we are using it now and (from my end of things, it's all on HR) seems to work really well.

                                It has all of that stuff (vacation/PTO requests, approvals, etc.) built in.

                                I have no idea of the costs, but I only have good to say about it.

                                Now, if you are strictly talking about a company-wide public absence calendar... the one I mentioned before is now live and fully in use, and is working out really well. No complaints yet. The only issues so far are people using the incorrect username/password to enter their absences. (yes, even though it says it right there on the front page)

                                Here's what it looks like in-use for the one site:

                                  How do they do their HR? Do they have a Software? I mean I know you said they have an ancient Lanthem, now Lathem Online would do that for them.

                                      It doesn't do mobile in free.

                                        I don't remember if it was posted here, but if you only want "1 app", such as the "Leaves" app, or whatever it may be, Odoo enterprise/hosted is free for unlimited users

                                        Here is all that is included with the single "Leaves" app for free.
