Why teams switch

The PTO cleanup that takes a week, not a quarter

Spreadsheets get ignored, and the big HR suite gets avoided. Vacation Tracker is the layer that just handles leave, in the tools your team already opens every day.

Complex policies, handled

Your rules can be weird. The tracking still runs itself.

Set each policy once. Vacation Tracker enforces it from there. No chasing approvals, no balance math, no "quick question" emails.

Accruals

Days accrue on your schedule, monthly, biweekly, or yearly. Balances update themselves.

Carryover & rollover

Year-end rollover applied per policy, with caps and expiry dates. No January spreadsheet ritual.

TOIL

Time off in lieu, earned, tracked, and spent like any other leave type.

Hourly & half-day leave

Not everyone takes full days. Track leave by the hour where it makes sense.

Multi-level approvals

Requests route to the right approver, or two of them, in the right order. Automatically.

Per-location rules

Different quotas, policies, and public holidays for every office, applied to the right people.

Remote day tracking

Work-from-home days as their own leave type, on the same calendar as everything else.

Seniority-based leave

Extra days added automatically at work anniversaries. Nothing to recalculate by hand.

Blackout & probation periods

Block requests during crunch weeks, and hold leave for new hires until probation ends.

All of it automatic. None of it in your inbox.

From an admin side, not much to do after setup. The user can basically help themselves. From an end user point of view, all information is at your disposal and can be found easily.
Fair questions

What you're probably wondering

Keep the HRIS for what it does well. Vacation Tracker replaces the PTO module nobody opens, and because it lives in Slack, Teams, or Google Workspace, people actually use it. Core is $2 per user per month, and Complete, with the advanced policies and automations, is $4. Either way, most teams make it back in saved admin hours in the first week.

This isn't a migration, it's an afternoon. Connect your workspace, set your leave policies, enter current balances, done. There's no data import to babysit and no training to run, because your team already knows how to use the chat tool it lives in.

They'll use it, because there's nothing new to learn. Requesting a day off takes a few clicks in the tool they already have open. Balances are self-serve, approvals are one click for managers, and the who's-off calendar answers the rest. The DMs stop because the reason for them is gone.

Almost certainly. Accruals, carryover, TOIL, hourly leave, multi-level approvals, and different rules per location or department are all supported. If your policies currently live in someone's head, this is where you write them down once and let the system enforce them.

Vacation Tracker is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted on AWS in North America and Europe, with annual penetration testing. Your IT team can dig into the details at vacationtracker.io/security.
