Laksman: My name is Laksman. I work at Stanford University. I'm a Digital Community and Social Media Specialist. I would rate Vacation Tracker as five stars. Yeah, we used an app called TimeBot before Vacation Tracker, and I think the thing that sold us on a Vacation Tracker was the easy access to the calendar that was always synced and up-to-date and just all the features that made it very easy to use through Slack. We chose Vacation Tracker because it seemed like it had a lot of features. We liked that we could easily request time off through Slack, but also log into a dashboard and request time off that way as well. And we liked all the features regarding the visualization of the calendars and the time off charts. That really helps us planning for our team's time away from the office. Yeah, it was super easy to onboard and integrate with Vacation Tracker. They have someone that will work with you and go through the whole software with you, answer any questions and help you set it up for the way that you need to use it for your team. For anyone that's wanting to give Vacation Tracker a try, I would recommend a free trial. And working with the team that will help you meet with you over Zoom and give you a tour of the software, that really helps speed up the process and get us onboarded very quickly. And we were able to use Vacation Tracker within a day after that, so I would definitely recommend them.
