The short version

  • Only RudderStack has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 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published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier; RudderStack on the free plan data processing stops after a second consecutive overage rather than being billed, so exceeding 250,000 events twice breaks the pipeline

Where each one falls short

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

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Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier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

RudderStack

  • On the free plan data processing stops after a second consecutive overage rather than being billed, so exceeding 250,000 events twice breaks the pipeline
  • The free plan allows 250,000 events a month
  • Growth starts at $265 a month for 1 million events, with volume sold in tiers up to 25 million
  • Overage is charged as the gap to the next tier's price rather than per event, so a small excess costs a full tier step
