BambooHR splits its pricing at 25 employees. At 25 or fewer, you pay a flat rate from $250 a month for the company. Past 25, the per-employee plans take over, with volume discounts as you grow.
A flat rate means a 9-person company and a 25-person company start from the same $250. That's good news near the top of the band and costly near the bottom. The fewer people you have, the more each of them costs.
Above the band, BambooHR's published plans are Core at $10, Pro at $17 and Elite at $25, each per employee per month. We read all of these figures on bamboohr.com on 24 September 2026.
BambooHR is an HR system, so client projects, timesheets and capacity planning sit in a separate tool with its own price. If your team bills clients for its time, add that second tool to the comparison.
PeopleMuster has no flat floor and no seat minimum. You pay $3 per person, per month, from the first person, whether you have 5 people or 50. Attendance, leave and the directory share one database with projects, timesheets and the capacity plan, all in the same price.
Every new customer gets 14 days free with no card, and there's no setup fee. We load your people, leave types and projects with you during setup.
