What factoHR does
factoHR is an HRMS covering the employee lifecycle: onboarding, core HR records, attendance and leave, payroll, expenses and performance. Attendance supports AI face recognition and geo-fencing for distributed teams.
How the pricing works
Paid plans cover the first 50 employees for a monthly rate billed yearly, with a per-employee rate above that. A 100-person company on Core pays ₹4,499 + (50 × ₹89) = ₹8,949/month equivalent, committed annually.
Where it fits
factoHR suits companies that want broader HR in one bundle and are comfortable with an annual contract. If monthly flexibility matters more, greytHR’s monthly plans have no lock-in.
