When I Work, at $2.50 per user a month for its Single location or schedule plan — the lowest paid entry price of the 6 alternatives on the record. Deel itself starts at $14 per user a month. Homebase also lists a free plan.
Q2 Which Deel alternatives have a free plan?
Homebase. Only a plan the vendor lists at $0 counts; free trials do not.
Q3 Is Deel more expensive than its alternatives?
3 of 6 alternatives start below Deel's $14 per user a month: When I Work, Lattice and BambooHR. Entry prices are compared only where both are charged the same way — per user against per user, flat against flat.
Q4 How current are these prices?
Each pricing page is re-read by MarkupBot at least daily. The table shows the standing price of every plan — where a vendor is running a promotion, the price it reverts to — and every product name links to its dated history and the archived capture behind each figure.
