Pluspunten
Excellent support, easy handling with Calamari
Minpunten
We would like to have the possibility to export the review but in the color of each leave event (vacation, sick days each different color..) so we can visualize it through the review for each employee per month. It would help us with the salary accounting process.

I hope there is a feature like, when someone submit their annual/sick leave, admin can receive the notification via email as soon as the submission published. Right now, calamari only provide the reminder approval for the request that has been submitted
Pluspunten
They divided each project with color it's easier to check on it
Minpunten
They are not providing 'employee data' feature anymore, such as: address, emergency number, etc

game changer :)
Beoordeeld op 20-3-2024
Pluspunten
We are a small IT company that wants to digitize all applications because our work is flexible regarding time and place. Requests, entitlements, and time management are all in one place. We can't imagine our daily work without Calamari notifications on Slack. It improves our work-life :)
Minpunten
Initially, the interface seemed a bit clunky, but the Calamari team welcomes feedback and has made great progress over the past year. They ask about improvements and implement them quickly!

Good in general - would be good to be able to change the date of contracts when peoples contracts change.
Pluspunten
Simple to use for the normal user, simple overview for attendance in calendar view.
Minpunten
Difficult to set up (solved by free assistance, but sometimes I would prefer to do things on my own).
I would also like to get better reports in the system (not to print or download) but to just view and see status - there are so many options that it always takes time to find the correct view. Usually I end um using the setup part to see the information I want.

Experience with Calamari is beyond my expectations.
Pluspunten
I've been looking for a time and PTO tracker for my teams as we grow, and we have been previously using spreadsheets which has become too tedious. I signed up for a trial with Calamari and it was an easy discovery of value for money. Setup was easy, and whenever I encountered hiccups, their support was amazingly responsive (3-4 mins response time). I've seen bugs but they fix it in just a few minutes after I reported it. The effort their support team takes to actually help me out was very much commendable (they fixed my accrual rules, sent me screenshots of my actual account on where I can tweak something). They are also very patient, I love tinkering and their support walked me through the entire setup.The integrations with Slack and Google Calendar are also one of the many things I loved.
Minpunten
Not really a con, but I'd love to see an option to restrict requests on specific months/days.

Easy to Use and Worth the Cost
Beoordeeld op 7-3-2024
Great! This product is perfect for our needs right now.
Great! This product is perfect for our needs right now.
Pluspunten
Calamari is easy to use and useful for a small employee population. It is simple and you don't have to pay for the big scale HRIS and timekeeping software for a small population. Its features are still targeted not requiring the use of a generic product for the smaller employers. All of the technical support and customer Service I have received has been quick and exceptional!
Minpunten
it would be nice to be able to have at least one report option that is ad hoc and customizable.

The platform provided an efficient and reliable solution for time tracking, leave management, and attendance tracking.
Pluspunten
There were several aspects of Calamari that I found appealing. One of the things I liked most was its intuitive and user-friendly interface. Navigating through the platform and accessing various features such as time tracking, leave management, and attendance tracking was seamless and straightforward. The availability of mobile apps further enhanced the convenience, allowing employees to manage their time and leave requests on the go. Additionally, the reporting and analytics capabilities provided valuable insights into employee attendance patterns and helped streamline workforce management.
Minpunten
One area that I liked least was the limited customization options. While the core functionalities of time tracking and leave management were solid, the ability to customize the platform to match specific business requirements was somewhat limited. Having more flexibility in terms of customizing leave policies, approval workflows, and reports would have been beneficial for organizations with unique needs.

A Happy Calamari User - Brought Calamari Onboard from my previous role/company
Beoordeeld op 7-3-2024
Pluspunten
It's simple and intuitive. The learning curve is relatively low. It's lean. And it's also cost competitive for our needs. I know Calamari offers other functions aside from PTO tracking, but I would need to delve deeper to understand how they compare to what we currently use
Minpunten
Nothing really.. It works well for what we need. I may come across things as we go, but generally speaking.. it works well
