The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Accelo pricing page states cost is based on team size and growth goals with no published tiers or dollar figures, requiring a custom quote; BambooHR organisations of 25 or fewer employees pay a flat rate starting at $250 a month, so a very small team pays far more per head than the listed per-employee price
