Case Study: KANVID streamlines leave management with Vacation Tracker

KANVID’s Switch from Spreadsheets to a Faster, More Reliable Leave System

KANVID, a media production company based in Shanghai, faced significant challenges managing employee leave for its team. For years, they relied on a slow and cumbersome spreadsheet system that was prone to errors and confusion, especially after outsourcing their HR function. The process caused delays, made it difficult to track approvals and different leave types, and created extra work for everyone. They needed a better system that would also work reliably in China without a VPN.

The company implemented Vacation Tracker, a leave management solution that worked instantly without a VPN and supported Chinese characters. The software integrated with Microsoft Teams, allowing employees to request leave in seconds and managers to approve it instantly. Vacation Tracker provided the team with full visibility into their leave balances, eliminating constant back-and-forth with HR. The result was an immediate transformation from a frustrating, manual process to a fast and effortless system, saving time for employees, managers, and HR.
