WebHR

Overview

WebHR brings employee administration and several everyday HR tasks into one service. It suits organizations that want web and mobile access alongside those functions. The free plan is capped at five employees; the paid plans accommodate up to 1,000.

Key features

Employee records, onboarding, time-off management, time tracking and performance management make WebHR a broad option for routine HR work. That range is useful for teams seeking one service across several functions, but less compelling if they need only one capability or require a free plan for more than five employees.

Web, iOS and Android access gives teams options across browsers and mobile devices. The published feature set names the functions but does not establish their depth, so buyers with specialized HR workflows should weigh that limitation.

Pricing

Free is a straightforward starting point for a team of five or fewer, though its small cap makes it a limited long-term option for a growing organization. The Yearly Plan lowers the monthly rate relative to the Monthly Plan, but requires prepaid annual billing. Both paid plans support up to 1,000 employees, so the choice between them is primarily billing term and price.

Platforms

WebHR is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps. That range suits organizations whose staff or HR administrators need mobile access as well as browser access.

Who it's for

WebHR is a reasonable fit for organizations consolidating employee records and common HR tasks, especially those that want mobile access and expect to outgrow a five-person free tier. It is less suited to buyers who need a larger free allowance or need assurance about specialized workflow capabilities.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Employee records, onboarding, time off, time tracking and performance management cover several routine HR needs in one service.
• Pros: Paid plans accommodate up to 1,000 employees, providing a path beyond the free tier.
• Cons: Free covers only five employees, which limits its usefulness for larger teams.
• Cons: The annual plan is prepaid, while monthly billing costs more at $3 a month rather than $2 a month.

Alternatives

HR Software is a broader category to explore if WebHR does not match your requirements.

Choose Horilla if open-source software or a self-hosted plan with unlimited users and companies is a priority. Zoho People is another freemium option with web, iOS and Android access and a free plan for five users. Consider Frappe HR if you want a freemium service with self-hosted availability as well as web and mobile platforms. TalentHR offers a free tier for up to 10 active users, making it worth comparing if WebHR's five-employee cap is too restrictive. Runtime HRMS is an alternative with a free five-employee tier and paid plans priced in INR. factoHR offers a free tier for up to 20 employees and web access. IceHrm is a freemium alternative with self-hosted availability. Cast HR has a forever-free Startup plan for 20 employees and a Basic plan that is free for teams of 20 or fewer.

Verdict

Choose WebHR if you want a single service for several everyday HR functions, mobile access and paid capacity up to 1,000 employees. Its main limitation is the five-employee free cap; teams that need a more generous free tier should compare alternatives before committing.
