Why teams switch

Common frustrations with HRplus

$

Enterprise pricing, not mid-market

HRplus positions as an enterprise ERP with quote-based pricing that can be prohibitive for mid-market organizations with 50-500 employees.

Steep learning curve, complex setup

As a traditional ERP, HRplus requires significant configuration time and training, delaying time-to-value for new clients.

Enterprise setup requires significant time

HRplus is a traditional ERP that requires substantial implementation effort and professional services engagement, meaning longer time-to-value compared to modern cloud platforms with guided onboarding.

Video Testimonial

We wouldn't be able to hire the people that we do anymore with the same resources we already had. It allowed us to keep our headcount consistent without needing to increase.

When that flag comes up it gives us a proactive approach and allows us to spot and correct errors before we even run payroll.
