Where each one falls short

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

Blink

  • API access, advanced admin controls and compliance features are Enterprise only, with pricing on request
  • Events management, multi-language publishing and the AI assistant require Pro at $5 per user per month
  • Monthly billing costs about 40 percent more than annual, at $5.60 against $3.75 on Core

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Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier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
