Zoho People vs greytHR — Common Questions
Is Zoho People good for payroll in India?
Zoho People handles HR management (leaves, attendance, performance). For payroll, you need Zoho Payroll (a separate app in the Zoho suite) which has good India compliance — PF, ESIC, TDS, Form 16. Together, they work well but require using two apps.
Which is cheaper — Zoho People or greytHR?
Zoho People starts at ₹48/employee/month. greytHR starts at approximately ₹139/employee/month. Zoho People is cheaper for HR management, but you need to add Zoho Payroll for payroll functionality (separate pricing).
Is greytHR better for Indian payroll than Zoho?
greytHR has deeper India payroll expertise — 20+ years of compliance with PF, ESIC, PT, TDS, gratuity, bonus calculations, and statutory reports. For payroll-first requirements, greytHR is the better choice. Zoho People + Zoho Payroll is better if you are already in the Zoho ecosystem.
