Flamingo review

Flamingo is a good fit for small teams that run on Slack and accrue PTO over time. Everything happens in Slack: employees request leave, managers approve it, Slack status changes automatically during leave and leave notices can post to a public channel. A web app shows monthly or yearly leave at a glance and holds settings for leave types, policies and public holidays. Unlike several cheaper tools, accruals are included, and you can accrue weekly, every two weeks, monthly or quarterly, with per-person policies for seniority-based allowances. The Business plan is listed from $30 per month and covers up to 99 seats, with the price set by team size; Enterprise is quoted for 100 or more. Only people you add are billed. The limits are clear: no Slack, no Flamingo, and the trial lasts just 7 days, so set up policies before you start it.
