For a first team getting the shared record straight before anything else is switched on.
The plan most companies stay on. Automations across products, the API, and field-level permissions.
For multiple entities, a compliance requirement, or companies running most of the platform.
Only people who need to open Nest count. Read-only viewers are free, which is usually most of the people who end up looking at it.
Comparison uses published list prices for the point tools each product replaces, at the same seat count.
HR software is normally priced per employee, which charges you for people who will never sign in. This is priced per user, so a company of two hundred with four people in HR pays for four.
Payroll is the part that usually appears as a second licence with its own implementation. It is in the plans as listed, because a payroll run that cannot read attendance is not worth having.
Most of the cost of business software is not the licence. It is the implementation fee, the integration project, the premium support tier and the API access that turns out to be an enterprise feature. None of those exist here.
The full Nest feature list →Employees who submit leave from a notification do not need a seat. The people who administer the records do, and that is usually a much smaller number than the payroll.
The Nest setup guides →Published list prices for the point tools Nest replaces, at the same seat count. The spreadsheet has no licence fee; its cost is the person who maintains it, which is why it is listed without one.
Per user. An employee who never signs in — because their manager files their leave — does not need a seat.
No. Payroll runs, postings and payslips are in the plans as listed. There is no separate payroll licence.
Add seats when they start and remove them when they leave; both are pro rata, so a summer peak costs a summer price.
No. Contracts, right-to-work and certifications are unlimited, with no per-gigabyte charge.
The trial is the complete plan rather than a limited one, because a trial that hides the useful features tells you nothing. Nothing switches off at the end without you choosing it.
