For a five-person company that also wants payroll and an employee self-service portal, what's a reasonable monthly budget for accounting software?

“This is a relatively economical option for a small business.”

“- Digital payroll documents and automatic tax and social security notifications.”

“One consideration: its employee document functionality is not necessarily equivalent to a full HR self-service portal.”

“- Automated payroll processing.”

“- Employee onboarding portal.”

“- Employee documents.”

“- Mobile app.”

“- Holiday and absence management.”

“- Working hours and overtime tracking.”

“- Approval workflows.”

“You would need to add separate accounting software, bringing the estimated combined cost to approximately €52–€65/month.”
