Why HR Software Pricing Gets Complicated, And How Computime Avoids It

The typical small business setup looks like this: one tool for HR records, another for time and attendance, a separate system for absence, and a payroll export that takes half an hour to reconcile every month. Each platform charges its own monthly fee and together they add up fast. Worse, they create duplicate data, manual workarounds, and too many places for things to go wrong.

Computime takes a different approach. Our HR software is a module within the Realtime Workforce Management platform the same system your managers use to clock staff in, approve absences and run payroll exports. There’s no separate HR tool to subscribe to, no integration to maintain, and no duplicate employee records to keep in sync. One platform. One support team. One cost.

Everything you need to manage your people, in one place

Employee records management

Centralised employee profiles covering personal details, job history, contract type, emergency contacts and document storage, all accessible from the same system as your clocking data.

HR reporting and analytics

Generate instant HR reports on headcount, turnover, sickness trends, Bradford Factor scores, departmental absence rates and more. Export to CSV or straight into your payroll integration.

Document management

Store contracts, right-to-work documents, performance reviews and disciplinary records securely against each employee record. Set expiry alerts so nothing lapses unnoticed.

Alerts and notifications

Automated alerts for contract renewals, probation end dates, right-to-work document expiry and return-to-work triggers, so nothing slips through the cracks.

Employee self-service

Staff can view their own records, request leave, check their remaining holiday entitlement and download payslips, reducing the volume of routine HR queries your managers handle.

Payroll-ready integration

HR data integrates directly with Sage, and exports ready for Pegasus or QuickBooks. No manual re-keying, no reconciliation headaches at month end.

Clare Barker

HR Manager, Wholebake Limited

I was tasked with sourcing a computerised time and attendance solution to replace our manual clocking system. The Computime website contained all the information I needed, making the decision straightforward. The software proved easy to use and the helpdesk was very helpful and friendly. Computime have exceeded all of our expectations and objectives. I would definitely recommend them.
