Where each one falls short

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

Homebase

  • Free Basic plan is capped at 10 employees and a single location
  • Paid plans are billed per location per month ($30, $70 or $120), so a multi-location business pays the rate again for each site
  • Payroll is a separate add-on at $39 per month plus $6 per month per employee paid
  • Tip Manager and Task Manager are further add-ons billed per location per month on top of the base plan

Velocity Global

  • Velocity Global has rebranded to Pebl and velocityglobal.com redirects to hellopebl.com
  • No pricing is published for the Employer of Record service; the site routes to a demo request with no published per-employee rate
  • The offering is an Employer of Record arrangement, so the employee is legally employed by the provider rather than the client
