For the price of a lunch per month our people admin is simply handled. Approvals route to the right manager without anyone maintaining a diagram. Small companies deserve HR software this straightforward.
Pros
Leave and absence handled cleanly

Managers approve leave from their phones and the office manager got her Fridays back. Exporting for the accountant or a labour consultant takes one click.
Pros
No per seat maths ever
Cons
Public holidays loaded manually

After 2 years it fits, with configured workarounds. Pound billing shifts with the exchange rate quarter to quarter. Leave balances calculate themselves and staff check the app instead of asking.
Pros
Company calendar for resourcing

We spent our first month undoing British defaults. A disciplinary process needs documentation this system cannot properly hold.
Cons
Overnight waits during urgent processes

For the price we forgive the gaps, mostly. Performance tools are check ins, not a real review framework.
Pros
Company calendar for resourcing
Cons
Reporting is exports not insight

Leave lived in a shared spreadsheet nobody trusted, now nobody argues. Performance check ins are light but they happen, which beats heavy and skipped. Simple, predictable and quietly essential now.
Pros
No per seat maths ever

A good honest product with a British accent you will need to manage. Reporting is lists and exports rather than insight. Approvals route to the right manager without anyone maintaining a diagram.
Cons
Public holidays loaded manually

The banded pricing meant our costs stayed flat through a year of hiring. New managers learn it in an afternoon because there is nothing to learn. Simple, predictable and quietly essential now.
Pros

The banded pricing meant our costs stayed flat through a year of hiring. Approvals route to the right manager without anyone maintaining a diagram. The flat tier absorbed our seasonal staff without a billing surprise.
Pros
Leave and absence handled cleanly

Leave lived in a shared spreadsheet nobody trusted, now nobody argues. Document acknowledgement means policy arguments end with a timestamp. Simple, predictable and quietly essential now.

A good honest product with a British accent you will need to manage. The tier boundaries mean one hire can bump the whole monthly price. Performance check ins are light but they happen, which beats heavy and skipped.
Pros
No per seat maths ever
Cons
British defaults need SA configuration

It suited us at fifteen people and constrained us at fifty. The band jump doubled our bill for the sake of two hires. A disciplinary process needs documentation this system cannot properly hold.
Cons
Cannot hold a proper disciplinary record

A good honest product with a British accent you will need to manage. The tier boundaries mean one hire can bump the whole monthly price. New managers learn it in an afternoon because there is nothing to learn.
Cons
No employment equity reporting

Does what we bought it for and little beyond. New managers learn it in an afternoon because there is nothing to learn.
Pros
Leave and absence handled cleanly
Cons
British defaults need SA configuration

We are 4 people with no HR department and Breathe quietly became it. Performance check ins are light but they happen, which beats heavy and skipped. Small companies deserve HR software this straightforward.
Pros
Approvals route themselves

Onboarding documents go out before day one and arrive back signed. Approvals route to the right manager without anyone maintaining a diagram. It does the unglamorous work perfectly.
Pros
Approvals route themselves; one click exports for advisors
Cons
Public holidays loaded manually

Happy with the core, aware of the edges. The tier boundaries mean one hire can bump the whole monthly price. The flat tier absorbed our seasonal staff without a billing surprise.
Pros

Cons

The company calendar shows exactly who is off before we commit to a client deadline. Absence reporting surfaced patterns our gut had missed. It does the unglamorous work perfectly.
Pros
Self service staff records

The company calendar shows exactly who is off before we commit to a client deadline. It does the unglamorous work perfectly.
Pros
Flat per company pricing, hire freely; approvals route themselves

Once our policies got serious the product stayed simple. Statutory SA leave categories had to be faked with custom types.
Pros
Document acknowledgement with timestamps
Cons
Overnight waits during urgent processes. Cannot hold a proper disciplinary record
