ZivoHR vs Bayzat

Pick Bayzat for KSA payroll, DEWS, insurance and spend tools on one Gulf platform. Pick ZivoHR if you run payroll in India or the US as well as the UAE.

Where ZivoHR is different

India and US payroll as well

Statutory payroll for India (PF, ESI, TDS with Form 16, professional tax and LWF) and the US (federal, FICA, FUTA and state income tax for the 41 states that tax wages and DC) as well as the UAE. Each workspace runs one country's payroll, so entities in two countries mean two workspaces.

Payroll by country

An assistant scoped to one person

Ziva reads only the record of the person asking, even when that person is in HR or manages a team. It can prepare a leave request or an expense claim, which the person confirms and which then goes through the same approval chain as the form.

What Ziva reads and refuses

ILOE and the Savings Scheme in the pay run

ILOE unemployment insurance and the Savings Scheme are calculated in the same run as WPS SIF files, GPSSA and ADPF pension, the GCC-national pension, and end-of-service gratuity with unpaid days excluded. Neither was found on bayzat.com as of 5 October 2026.

UAE payroll

Accessibility work you can read

Employee and manager screens are run through axe-core against WCAG 2.2 A and AA and walked keyboard-only across eighteen everyday tasks. The gaps that remain are listed, including no testing yet by a screen-reader user.

Where Bayzat is stronger

We would rather say this once than have you find it in month two.

KSA payroll

Bayzat runs Saudi payroll with GOSI, payroll files in the format MHRSD requires, WPS, and end-of-service gratuity under Saudi Labour Law. ZivoHR runs UAE payroll only in the Gulf.

DEWS and salary transfer

Bayzat tracks and files DIFC Employee Workplace Savings (DEWS) contributions, and submits SIF files to MOHRE via Lulu Exchange. ZivoHR does not calculate DEWS.

Insurance and spend management

Group health, individual health and motor insurance, accounts payable, work expenses and corporate cards sit on the same platform as HR and payroll. ZivoHR has expense claims but no insurance, payables or cards.

Security certifications

Bayzat states it is ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type 2 certified. ZivoHR holds no security certification yet.

A local track record

Bayzat says it was founded in Dubai in 2012, serves 4,000+ companies, and supports Arabic and English. ZivoHR is a newer product with a much shorter record.
