OrangeHRM's open-source edition is aging. Peoplifi offers a modern cloud platform with Pakistan compliance, real support, and features shipped every sprint.
If you have internal engineers who want to self-host an open-source HRIS and do not mind an aging codebase, OrangeHRM Open Source still works. For every other team, Peoplifi delivers more value in less time.
OrangeHRM is a veteran HR platform (2006) with a free open-source community edition and paid professional editions. The brand has strong recognition, but the open-source edition sees limited active development, and the UI/UX has not kept pace with modern SaaS expectations.
Open Source: free (self-hosted). Professional: quote-based, typically $3 to $7 per employee per month plus implementation fees
$3 per seat per month (Starter) to $12 (Business). PKR 840 to PKR 3,360 per seat in Pakistan. Implementation and onboarding included.
Engineering-heavy organizations that want to self-host a free HRIS on their own servers.
Modern SMBs and mid-market teams that want a maintained, supported product shipped every month.
The Open Source Edition is free to download and self-host, but you pay in server costs, engineering time, and slower feature updates. The paid Professional tier is priced similarly to modern SaaS HRIS.
No, Peoplifi is proprietary commercial software. We offer transparent pricing instead of an open-source model, so hosting, security patches, and compliance updates are handled for you.
