I've asked twice for help with Bank Holiday and leave carry over concerns and response was slow in the first case and no reply to date for the second ?
Software is easy to learn as both an administrator and user, support issues leave room for improvement.
Pros

Cons
Will not automatically add in Bank Holidays or carry over unused leave to next year.
