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

greytHR

  • Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier
  • The platform serves 34,000+ companies and its entry tier is scoped by headcount rather than by feature set, meaning growth past 50 employees forces a plan change
