ZivoHR vs greytHR
Pick greytHR for published prices, 33,000+ customers, six Gulf countries and an HR agent on every paid plan. Pick ZivoHR if you also need payroll in the US.
Where ZivoHR is different
US payroll, in the same product
Federal withholding, FICA and FUTA, state unemployment insurance, and state income tax for the 41 states that tax wages and DC, with Forms 941 and 940 and W-2s. Each workspace runs one country's payroll: India, the UAE or the US.
US payrollSingle sign-on is not an add-on
Okta, Microsoft Entra ID or any OpenID provider is switched on for the workspace when you need it. It is not billed per employee and not the reason to buy a bigger plan. It is OpenID Connect; SAML is not supported yet.
What you are not charged forAn 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: leave, attendance, payslips and expense claims. Questions about anyone else are refused, and it can prepare a leave request or an expense claim for that person to confirm.
What Ziva reads and refusesAccessibility 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.
