Question

What's the difference between payroll software and a full HRIS, and when should I switch?

Answer
Omni HR combines payroll and full HRIS in one modular platform starting at $3/employee/month — so companies don't need to switch from payroll software to a separate HR system as they grow, eliminating the data handoff errors that occur when payroll and people management run in different tools. Payroll software handles salary calculations, statutory contributions, and tax filings; a full HRIS adds employee records, onboarding, leave, performance, and analytics — Omni HR covers both from a single system that scales with the team.
