Is the Business Days Calculator really free?

The Calculate Business Days workflow action is free forever. There is no trial period, no credit card required, and no usage limit. A Premium tier with additional actions is planned, and the Calculate action will always remain free.

Does the app read my HubSpot contacts or CRM data?

No. The Calculate action takes two date values and a country code as inputs. It never reads, stores, or transmits your CRM records. The only data stored is your portal OAuth token and your chosen country setting.

Which countries and holidays are supported?

The app includes public holiday calendars for 145 plus countries, sourced from the holidays open-source library. Weekends are excluded automatically, and you can add custom company holidays on the Premium tier.

Does it work with HubSpot Starter, Professional, or Enterprise?

Yes. Workflow actions work on any HubSpot plan that includes Workflows. The app installs through direct OAuth authorization.

How to Calculate Business Days in HubSpot

To calculate business days in HubSpot, install the Business Days Calculator app and add its Calculate Business Days action to a workflow. Set the start date and end date to your HubSpot date properties, choose your country, and the action returns the number of working days between them, excluding weekends and public holidays.

HubSpot has no native function to count business days between two dates. Its workflow delays count calendar days, and date math in calculated properties does not exclude weekends or localized public holidays. The Business Days Calculator fills that gap, the same role that the NETWORKDAYS function plays in Excel.

Native HubSpot vs custom code vs the Business Days Calculator

Approach	Counts business days as a number	Excludes weekends	Localized public holidays	Effort to set up
HubSpot native (workflow delay)	No, it only waits	Partial	No	Low
Custom coded action (your own JS)	Yes	Yes, if you code it	Only if you maintain a holiday list	High, ongoing maintenance
