Instead of Homebase
Homebase alternatives
Homebase brings scheduling, time tracking, payroll, hiring, onboarding, HR, compliance, and team communication together for small, hourly, shift-based businesses. Employees can clock in from mobile or tablet time clocks using PIN, photo, GPS, or geofencing checks. Approved hours flow into payroll calculations and tax filings, while auto-scheduling, availability collection, time-off management, open shifts, shift swaps, POS connections, payroll connections, and Android, iOS, and web access support daily operations. A free plan is available, paid plans start at $30 per month, and a 14-day trial is offered.

Readers may look elsewhere when they need Australian award interpretation, deskless-workforce operations, spreadsheet-style scheduling, restaurant-focused HR, field-team tracking, or another price structure. Homebase’s Basic plan covers one location and up to 10 employees; paid plans allow unlimited employees per location. Compare payroll and compliance coverage, scheduling depth, clock-in methods, employee self-service, labor planning, integrations, approval workflows, supported devices, and whether hiring and HR should remain in the same system.
