The main difference

HoorayHR keeps it simple: personnel files, leave, absence, hours, contracts, onboarding and expense claims in one clear environment. Personio is broader and aims at companies with 10 to 2.000 employees. Besides HR administration, Personio has recruitment with its own careers site, onboarding, reviews and extensive permissions per role.

Choose HoorayHR if

  • you have a small or medium-sized team and mainly want files, leave and absence in order;
  • you want to start quickly without an implementation project;
  • you want to try it first: HoorayHR offers a free trial period.

Choose Personio if

  • you recruit a lot and want to track applicants in the same system;
  • you want to automate HR processes with approvals and workflows;
  • your organisation is growing and you need different rules per department or country.

Payroll

Neither creates the payslips itself in the Netherlands. HoorayHR integrates with Nmbrs, Loket.nl and SalarFusion, among others; Personio integrates with Loket and Nmbrs, among others. You can also pass the data on to your accountancy firm. Ask which integration exists with the package you or your accountant uses, and have them show how leave, absence and overtime end up on the payslip.
