A TimeBot alternative that does it all

It’s time to take your leave tracking to the next level.

Vacation Tracker is a TimeBot alternative that allows users to automate every single aspect of their leave management in just a few clicks from Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Workspace.

Why switch to our TimeBot Alternative?

TimeBot has undoubtedly done a great job at making leave requests and approval easy from Slack. But with Vacation Tracker, you can do all that and much more. Here’s why you should make the switch to our tool.

It's not integrated with MS Teams or Google Workspace

Microsoft Teams and Google Workspace are some of the most useful and popular team collaboration tools available in the market today. But if you don’t have a leave tracking solution built into these very tools, how can you work efficiently? Vacation Tracker helps you request and approve leaves, get notifications, and view your leave history — all from your workspace.

No employee leave calendar

With Vacation Tracker’s team leave calendar, your employees can see who’s off, when, and for what reason at just a quick glance. This information can also be filtered to show leave information for users in certain Locations, Departments, or assigned to specific Labels.

No data filtering options

Save yourself the hassle of swimming through a sea of leave information by filtering through it using customized Labels, Locations, Departments, or all three. Personalized Labels allow you to separate a set of users (regardless of their Location or Department) from the norm by assigning them all a Label. Now you can see exactly what you want to see, without struggling with information overload.

No PTO accrual option

Calculating accruals is often one of the most important and time-consuming aspects of leave management. While Timetastic does not offer this feature, Vacation Tracker allows you to calculate and automate Accruals with just a few taps on your computer. Input the frequency of accrual (monthly, semi-monthly or bi-weekly) and we’ll handle the rest.
