Quoted by the vendor
LabourNet states no upfront costs or joining fees and gives pricing on request.
Each button opens the vendor's own page in a new tab, where you buy or sign up. Prices are the vendor's, shown in rand.
LabourNet does not publish a price. The vendor gives it after you contact them, and the quote is the product: ask for the monthly price with the VAT basis stated, what is charged once only, and which SARS returns it handles for you.

Price on request
Starting prices of the priced products in the same category, cheapest first. This is a price sort, not a ranking: the cheapest product is not the best one, and some are priced per user, some per month and some excluding VAT.
Bar lengths use a square root scale, so a very high price does not flatten the rest. The figures are exact.
The middle starting price of the paid products here is R66.
Price on request, so not charted: LabourNet, Personio.
Positions use a square root scale, so a very high price does not flatten the rest. The figures are exact.
A dot is one plan. Free plans and plans on request have no price to place. A per user price is the price of one user.
A founding year says how long a company has existed. It says nothing about how good the product is.

LabourNet is closer to a services firm with software than a software company with services. Its site groups six solution areas: Labour Law, Payroll, Health and Safety, Information Compliance covering POPIA, PAIA and the Consumer Protection Act, Transformation covering employment equity, BBBEE and skills development, and Learning with online courses in computer skills, soft skills, leadership and labour compliance.
The People Management software is described as handling SARS and UIF integration, EMP201 and EMP501 documentation, leave management and online employee self service portals. Payroll can be run yourself or outsourced.
A consultancy model suits employers that want guidance more than self service. If you only want to run payslips cheaply, a product with a published price may be simpler.

In short
A sensible choice if you want advice and payroll under one roof. Ask for a written quote that splits software from advice, and compare it with a payroll product that publishes its price.
Start where the vendor sells it, and keep this page open beside you for the limits.
Price on request
LabourNet is a labour law consultancy that also sells payroll and People Management software. Ask for the software and advisory costs separately, so you can compare the software with a product that publishes its price.
LabourNet gives its price on request, so there is no published figure to quote. Ask for the monthly price in rand with the VAT basis stated, and for any one off charges in writing.

South African guides that help you weigh LabourNet: what the rules ask, what to test and what to put in writing.
Leave under the BCEA comes first
Many HR products are built in Britain, America or Europe. What a South African employer should check: leave under the BCEA, how HR meets payroll, the personal information it holds and what it costs for each employee.
Read the guideMinimum annual leave under the BCEA
21 days
The Basic Conditions of Employment Act sets minimum leave. HR software that accrues it wrongly will quietly misstate what you owe.
