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

Razorpay

  • International card payments cost up to 3% per transaction versus 2% domestically, per razorpay.com/pricing (Aug 2026), and an 18% GST is added on top of the platform fee
  • Instant refunds cost between Rs. 7.99 and Rs. 14.99 per refund on top of the transaction fee, per Razorpay's own pricing page; standard refunds are free but instant ones are not
