Where each one falls short

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

Paymo

  • Every advertised price rises after 3 months, with Plus going from $10.90 to $15.90 per user and Pro from $16.90 to $23.90
  • The free plan allows 1 user, 1 client and 2 projects
  • The Solo plan is still capped at 3 clients and 5 projects
  • Gantt charts, task dependencies and scheduling require the Plus plan
  • Integrations are excluded from both the free and Solo plans

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
