Slack Integration: Know who is Off and When with Style – Be Slack

CakeHR's hottest integration now pushes real-time approved employee requests

“It’s like rain on wedding day. It’s a free ride when you have already paid.”

Using an App called Slack to not be slack! It’s a little ironic, don’t you think?”

With a plethora of Slack integrations from accounting to development tools, productivity managers to cat bot generators that will organise your staff party, trust us, Slack is awesome and it is, without a doubt, the go-to application for teams and companies to collaborate, socialise and for daily banter.

Besides your work email, Slack is the app you always have open and pushing you notifications to keep up to date with everything and anything.

Image this – Ahead of the working day and before you have even checked the daily calendar, wouldn’t it be awesome to get the daily schedule straight to the Slack channel so that everybody knows who is and who is not?

Well, CakeHR have just done that!

CakeHR’s daily “out of office” reminders are pushed every morning to Slack with real-time updates when a request is accepted for the same day.

As you can see, we are even using Slack for office key management – maybe there is an app for that…
