The short version

  • Only WhatsApp 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published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier; WhatsApp consumer app messaging and calling is free, but the vendor notes carrier data charges may apply

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Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier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

WhatsApp

  • Consumer app messaging and calling is free, but the vendor notes carrier data charges may apply
