However, in our evaluation system, we gave it to Namely due to its more advanced HR tools including compensation management and managed services (for payroll processing and benefits administration). There are even online onboarding and new hire reporting tools, including access to HR experts in case you need to get advice on compliance issues. Both have mobile apps (for iOS and Android) and a self-service portal for employees to view pay slips, request PTO, clock in/out, and check benefits. They both have an online employee database that syncs to other modules for payroll processing and benefits management. Best for HR Features & Employee Benefits: Namelyīoth providers offer great HR tools. Its completely customizable solutions are an excellent choice whether you have a new business that hasn’t invested in other HR solutions yet or you have a midsize business with a small HR team. If you prefer customizability over affordability, then choose Namely. The provider doesn’t have multiple plans instead, it offers an “HR Fundamentals” package as a starter tier to which you can add modules (such as payroll processing, benefits administration, and timekeeping). In addition, you have to pay setup fees in order to get Namely’s platform up and running-the amount of which wasn’t divulged by the representative. Comparing this with TriNet Zenefits, a business would need more than 83 employees signing up for the core plan to match Namely’s minimum contract requirement. However, the representative that I talked to informed me about Namely’s minimum contract amount ranging from $10,000 to $15,000, depending on what services you sign up for. You have to contact the provider to discuss your business’ requirements and request a custom quote. Pricing for Namely, on the other hand, isn’t its strongest point since it doesn’t publish its pricing online. However, you have to pay add-on fees if you want payroll processing, HR and payroll advisory services, and your own broker to manage employee benefits. TriNet Zenefits also has a reasonably priced basic tier, called Essentials ($10 per employee monthly), that provides you with core HR tools for managing employee data, electronic documents, hiring, onboarding, timekeeping, PTO, and benefits enrollments. Its transparent pricing, affordability, multiple plan options, and zero setup fees were rated favorably.

TriNet Zenefits came out on top for pricing based on our evaluation criteria.
