It was straightforward to use, easy for the team to understand, and gave us a clear overview of everyone’s availability. > > **Cons**: The initial setup took a little time, but it was straightforward. After that, Vacation Tracker worked smoothly for our team. > > We used Vacation Tracker before and had a great experience with it. It simplified leave management and made planning around holidays much easier. The interface was clear, and we always knew where things stood. I would happily recommend it to teams looking for a simple way to manage time off. ----- ### "Vacation Tracker has made my life as an HR Admin MUCH easier" — 5.0/5 > **Amanda** | *16 September 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As an HR Admin with my eyes on several areas, the ease of use (for both me and our staff) of Vacation Tracker is my favorite. From clean visuals for our staff, to dashboards for the entire company, to customization, its made this process much easier than we had before. It was very easy to launch. I would say it's very cost effective as it covers all the bases without being so high priced. > > **Cons**: I do wish it was a bit more clear on how to set accrual/allotment rules, as well as personal employee settings dependent on role \& location versus overarching company rules. I do think most of my cons could be me not yet discovering everything the system provides. One thing we would love is a notes feature within time off, if I could add on the admin side any notes about the employees leave, whether it be a care note, out of policy request note, etc. so that when it comes to tracking overall patterns it could help shed light as well as help us better care for them as an oversight team. > > I have thoroughly enjoyed Vacation Tracker and it's helped me carry my role well. I can easily, confidently, clearly help our staff follow policies well, as well as get insightful dashboards to our executive teams quickly. ----- ### "It will be great one day" — 3.0/5 > **Jamie** | *25 August 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's intuitive and easy to use, and it looks nice. I like that the calendar is shared, and once the issues are fixed, it's going to solve a lot of our problems. > > **Cons**: Ongoing technical issues: The balances shown are incorrect on the app, but are correct on the desktop site. It can be difficult to get everyone signed in. I also don't think the reports are useful since a date range can't be selected so it's doesn't align with payroll. > > So far I've been using it like an excel sheet. I haven't trained the staff on it yet because there are too many issues. Once they are resolved, I think it's going to be a great program. ----- ### "Simple, flexible and intuitive" — 5.0/5 > **Cat** | *13 May 2026* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Vacation Tracker is extremely customizable and allowed us set up our bespoke PTO policies easily. It is incredibly intuitive and the integration with Teams makes it a breeze for both managers and employees. > > **Cons**: My only quibble with Vacation Tracker is that, while it allows for 2 levels of approval, it does not allow flexibility for different approval structures (we often need 3-4 managers to each approve). > > Simple to set up, easy to use. The best PTO tool I have ever used and I have been recommending it to others. ----- ### "Good product for the money" — 4.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *16 September 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We were looking for a program that tracked PTO without collecting excessive data that did not pertain to our employees. This is a great, straightforward product that makes it easy for our employees and the corporate office. We also love the support team; they have been incredibly helpful in getting us the answers we need in a timely manner. > > **Cons**: We offer sick time on a yearly basis and vacation time based on the anniversary date. There isn't an option to select multiple leave time periods, so we have had to work around that. > > So far it has been great with little complication. The setup was easy. The Vacation Traker team was great to work with. Our salesperson was responsive and friendly. I would recommend this product. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/263707/vacation-tracker?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/263707/vacation-tracker) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
