LeaveSheet vs Timetastic

LeaveSheet is built for US small businesses with USD pricing and US federal holidays seeded in. Timetastic is a UK company priced in GBP whose automatic accrual is reserved for its Pro plan (£2/user/month) rather than included at the entry price like LeaveSheet's.

Timetastic and LeaveSheet solve the same basic problem — tracking who's off and how much time off they have left — but Timetastic is a UK product priced in pounds sterling with no published USD rate, and its automatic accrual calculation only exists on the Pro tier (£2/user/month). The cheaper Standard plan (£1.20/user/month) covers requests, approvals, and a shared calendar, but does not calculate accrued leave for you. LeaveSheet, by contrast, is priced in USD from the start ($1.50/employee/month) and includes accrual with tenure tiers at that single price point — no upgrade required to get the calculation engine.

Timetastic is the stronger pick if your team is UK-based, wants mobile and desktop apps, or values a long, no-card 30-day trial and strong review scores (4.7 Capterra, 4.9 Trustpilot). It's also adding a Rota and Time Clock feature. LeaveSheet doesn't publish third-party review scores yet — it's a newer product — and has no mobile app or desktop app, only a web dashboard.

If you're a US company, LeaveSheet's US federal holidays (seeded automatically, editable manually) and USD pricing remove a layer of manual setup that a UK-first tool like Timetastic doesn't handle out of the box. If you're UK-based or want mobile apps and a longer trial window, Timetastic is the more natural fit, especially once you're on its Pro plan for accrual.

Timetastic pricing summary: Standard plan is £1.20/user/month (unlimited users, shared calendar, approvals, mobile/desktop apps); Pro plan is £2/user/month and adds accrued leave, absence insights, email reports, integrations, and SSO.

Pricing in detail, for a 10-employee team

For 10 employees, LeaveSheet is $15/month flat, including accrual, caps, and carryover. Timetastic's Standard plan for the same 10 people is £12/month (10 x £1.20), but Standard does not calculate accrued leave — you'd need Pro at £2/user/month, or £20/month, to get that.

Converting roughly, £12/month and £20/month land in a similar dollar range to LeaveSheet's $15/month depending on the exchange rate at the time, but the practical difference is what's included: LeaveSheet's $15/month already has the accrual engine built in, while Timetastic's cheaper tier (closest in raw price) does not, and the tier that does include accrual (Pro) adds integrations, SSO, and reports you may not need for a small US team.

Neither Timetastic plan publishes a stated monthly minimum on its pricing page, unlike Vacation Tracker or absence.io, so per-seat pricing scales down further for smaller teams than LeaveSheet's $9/month floor — worth checking directly on Timetastic's site if your team is under 8 people.

Where Timetastic is stronger

Timetastic offers a 30-day free trial, twice LeaveSheet's 14 days, giving more runway to test the tool against a real accrual cycle. It ships native mobile and desktop apps on every plan, has strong third-party review scores (4.7 on Capterra, 4.9 on Trustpilot) from a large existing user base (8,000+ businesses, 200,000+ users claimed), and is expanding into rota scheduling and time clock features. If your team wants app-based check-ins rather than a browser dashboard, or a long trial window, Timetastic covers that.

Timetastic's Standard plan also has no published per-account minimum on its pricing page, which can make it attractively cheap for very small or part-time teams compared to LeaveSheet's $9/month floor.

Where LeaveSheet is stronger

LeaveSheet's pricing is USD from the start, avoids currency-conversion guesswork for US buyers, and includes automatic accrual with tenure-based rate increases, annual caps, and carryover at its single $1.50/employee/month price — no separate accrual-capable tier to upgrade into. US federal holidays are seeded automatically into working-day calculations for requests, with manual editing available, which matters for a UK-headquartered tool that isn't built around the US holiday calendar by default.

LeaveSheet also exports a styled Excel PTO workbook (not just CSV) and detects team scheduling conflicts as an informational flag when requests overlap — features aimed specifically at US small-business admins who think in Excel terms already.

How to try LeaveSheet

Start a 14-day free trial at app.tabletemplates.com with every feature unlocked and no credit card required — the trial org comes preloaded with demo data so you can see accrual balances and the team calendar before importing your own employee list via CSV.

If your team is UK-based, has 30+ days to evaluate before committing, or wants native mobile apps immediately, it's worth trialing Timetastic in parallel and comparing accrual results against LeaveSheet's certified engine before deciding.
