Purely HR provides a straightforward approach for me to request time off and convey the time I would like to take off from work. It makes it simple to seek time off on the day of or after work has been cancelled. This functionality was not included in any of the prior tools I tried. Simply HR facilitates communication between me and the firm while I am unable to work.
Pros
The software's ease of use makes it simple to manage schedules. I enjoy how you can view your summary of utilised time off and future time off, as well as the summaries of balances in each area. It's straightforward to use, and the information is presented in a highly user-friendly way. The data is organised in such a way that I can rapidly interpret it. The finest aspect, in my opinion, is how simple it is to sign up.
Cons
I can't seem to find the tool that allows you to view how many hours of PTO you'll have at a later date. It's simple to find what you're looking for. I prefer tools that are simple to use. I haven't had any terrible encounters on this platform, therefore I can't say I have any dislikes. I wish the Staff dashboard wasn't so devoid of information for end users.

Not great. It rarely does what it is supposed to.
Pros
The timesheets are relatively simple to use
Cons
You can not remove a holiday after the time sheets are out. It cant handle the hours our staff do, so it messes up every single holiday stat pay. It never accrues properly.

I would highly recommend to any business looking for a reasonable priced program. It may not have every available option you can get elsewhere. But we found it covers off what we need, without the big price tag.
Pros
PurelyHR is incredibly user friendly and provides us what we need for our payroll. It tracks accurate time off accruals and time off used. The timesheet module is very easy to use for both admin and staff.
For the services it provides you can’t beat the price.
Cons
My only real dislike is that the remote access through a phone is very limited.

Has mentioned before we have been using PurelyHR for 10+ year and we are quite satisfied we would recommend for time-off.
Pros
Simplicity and customization are made quite easy for administrator and employee's onboarding. We currently only use the time tracking portion of PurelyHR but we have been using for more than 10 years with great satisfaction. The cost has been quite positive as a not for profit.
Cons
As far as time-off module goes, I think there's many reporting options and sometimes its hard to find on the first go the exact report type you need but there are some many options that what you are looking for does exist.
