From teams running the BuddiesHR suite in Slack and Teams.

My team members really enjoy Buddies HR. There are multiple different functions (Billy/Celebrations, Clappy/Kudos, Pulsy/Surveys, etc.) in one. It is the first of it's kind.
They are also quick to make updates if you give suggestions! I was pleasently surprised when I received an email that one of my suggestions had been incorporated into the platform.

What stands out with BuddiesHR is the blend of recognition, networking, and feedback seamlessly integrated into our daily Slack interactions.

What stands out for me is the fun and engagement these add-ons bring to our company culture. Alfy breaks the ice by pairing colleagues for coffee chats and Clappy, my personal favorite, enables a culture of recognition and appreciation among peers.

Frequently asked questions

Before you ask.

What is Palmy?+

Palmy is the vacation and PTO tracker from BuddiesHR. Employees request time off directly in Slack or Teams, managers approve or reject in one click, and the team calendar and statuses sync automatically. Free under 10 users, from $1/user/month after that, and setup takes about 3 minutes.

Can employees see each other's balances?+

No, balances are private. The team calendar only shows the dates people are off, never how many days anyone has left.

How does accrual math work?+

It's fully automated and customizable to everyone's needs. Define your quota and accrual rules per team, and Palmy tracks balances over time for you.

Does Palmy sync with our calendar?+

Yes. Approved time off syncs automatically to your company-wide Google Calendar or Outlook, and Slack or Teams statuses flip to 🌴 while people are out.

Does Palmy work with Microsoft Teams?+

Yes. Request time off, approve requests and see who is off from Slack, Microsoft Teams or the web dashboard.

Can we set different policies per team?+

Yes. Unlimited, accrued or regional: mix and match policies per team, and personalize the vacation types to fit how your company works.
