Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ADP

  • No pricing is published; every quote is custom and driven by employee count and which services are taken
  • Split into three separate products by company size, RUN for 1 to 49 employees, Workforce Now for 50 and above, and Lyric HCM for enterprise, so growing across a threshold means changing product rather than plan

Freedcamp

  • Plans are differentiated mainly by file upload size, at 10 MB on free, 25 MB on Pro, 100 MB on Business and 250 MB on Enterprise
  • The issue tracker, wiki, CRM, invoices and reports all require the Business plan at $7.49 per user per month
  • Backups start at Business and are weekly, becoming daily only on Enterprise
  • SAML SSO and white labelling are Enterprise only at $16.99 per user per month
  • AI usage is banded by plan rather than metered in stated units, described as limited, high and almost unlimited
