Pros

“The platform provides a comprehensive and efficient solution for managing schedules, tracking employee hours, and maintaining clear communication within a team.”

Yasmin M.

Administrative Assistant

“Its user-friendly design reduces the learning curve and allows both managers and employees to navigate the system with ease. Despite some minor technical limitations, Deputy consistently delivers on its core functionalities and contributes to a more organized and productive workflow.”

Yasmin M.

Administrative Assistant

“However, improving accuracy in time tracking and making payroll calculations clearer would significantly enhance trust and reliability in the sytem.”

Max D.

Night Audit

Pros

“It even integrate with calendar app and I can see my team mates who are on leave and can see my leaves right though my calendar.”

M k.

SDE

“Pause application was very useful, as we were able to track each employees leave balance being admin and also useful for checking calendar if an employee applied leave or not.”

Syed S.

Customer Experience

“One of the standout features of Pause is its seamless integration with Slack, which makes it easy for teams to manage their leave requests and approvals without having to leave their communication platform.”

Rishabh G.

SDE-2

Cons

“At times, the app could feel a bit complex for simple tasks, and some features required extra steps.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“This can be frustrating when, for example, an employee returns early from a doctor's appointment, thinks they have punched in, but their supervisor finds out when approving timesheets that the punch was not logged.”

Amy E.

Vice President

“For Australian Users - this product is NOT COMPLIANT to pay in accordance with the awards.”

Nicole D.

Manager

Cons

“The main disadvantage of pause is it does not have basic HRMS features like employee profiles, ability to upload their documents, onboarding etc. If some basic features are added then there is no need to look for other solutions.”

Abhishek S.

Team Lead

“This is not right since weekends are any case off and this way the number of leaves get wasted since pause includes the weekends as my off.”

Timothy A.

Customer Success

“Whenever I opened the portal, I felt like it took a lot of time for bootstrap loading which made UI experience little bad for end user.”
