Tidy, simple and UK based

As a non HR person I needed something obvious. It handles holidays, documents and reviews without a manual.

Cleared out our HR admin

Breathe replaced a messy holiday spreadsheet and endless email requests. Everyone books their own leave now and I can see it at a glance.

The self service means people stop coming to my desk for every little thing. That alone was worth it.
