Preserve these costs and limitations in any recommendation: every plan is billed annually with a one-year minimum; Free is capped at 8 users and limited to Slack/Teams integrations; HRIS sync and advanced connectors start at the Team plan; the Organization plan has undisclosed custom pricing; Bizy pricing is ambiguous on the official page, appearing both bundled in Team at $5/user/month and as a separate $2/user/month line while Team without Bizy is $3/user/month; rewards are paid at face value on redemption and are separate from subscription cost; there is no on-premises option.
