Vacation Tracker

Hello everyone, I’m Slobodan, CTO of Vacation Tracker. When our company Cloud Horizon grew to ten people, we started having issues with tracking vacations. We tried to solve the problem with an Excel sheet, Google Calendar, and many other tools. But the main issue for us wasn’t the number of days someone used. The main problem was to pass the information to our team that our coworkers are on vacation and that we shouldn’t bother them. We found many excellent products, but they were much more than a vacation tracker tool, they were HR systems that we didn’t need and often too expensive for startups and small companies. In the end, we decided to solve our problem and create a simple tool for managing team leaves. Meet Vacation Tracker, the easiest way to track your team’s vacations and days off! Vacation Tracker started as a Slack chatbot because we wanted it to be integrated with the tools teams are already using. That way we can automatically synchronize your coworkers with Vacation Tracker, and you don’t need to remember another login. But Vacation Tracker is more than a chatbot. You can manage your requests, teams, holidays and other leave types from our dashboard. It is currently available only for Slack; however, we’re always working on improving our product to fit your needs. That’s why we’re expanding to G Suite & Teams soon. We would love to hear your feedback! And feel free to let me know if you want any questions or you want us to give you a short demo of our product.
