WebHR alternatives

WebHR lists its core at $2 per employee a month, and every add-on stacks another $0.50 to $2 per employee on top (web.hr/pricing, 24 September 2026). Buyers weighing it are really weighing modular pricing, so this list sets it against Calamari, ChartHop, HarmonyHR, greytHR and Resourceinn. PeopleMuster answers with one flat rate: $3 per person a month, all modules bundled, staffing and client delivery on a single record.

Why people leave

Stacked add-ons. Two dollars buys the core, and each extra module stacks between fifty cents and two dollars more per head, so every add-on switched on lifts the monthly invoice.
Budgets that move every quarter. Because the invoice is assembled piece by piece, a finance lead reconciles which extras were active before forecasting spend.
Billable hours kept apart. Agencies logging effort against client engagements end up running a separate tracker, then retyping approved absences into the delivery schedule.

The real options

Six products, checked on 24 September 2026 against four questions: what the core costs, what each extra module adds, whether a seat floor or hub fee applies, and whether billable project hours live beside the employee file. Evaluated from WebHR's own documentation and pricing, September 2026. Rival figures come from each seller's public price list, read that morning, quoted in their original currency. Sellers without a public list appear under how they quote.
