How it works

When you buy

One payment

Priced by the number of staff. Every module is included: HR, payroll, attendance, leave, safety, accounting, operations, chat and calls.

  • Installed on your server
  • Your staff and leave balances imported
  • Training for HR, managers and your accountant

The first year

Included

Bug fixes, security updates, new versions and statutory rate updates for a full year. In the first months we also make small changes so it fits the way you work.

After that

Only if you want it

An optional yearly plan keeps the updates and support coming. Larger changes are quoted separately. Keelsum keeps working whether you renew or not.

Every module, every licence

What is included

Compared

Owning it versus renting it

Most HR software is rented per employee per month from the vendor’s cloud. That suits some companies. This is how owning Keelsum compares.

Try it before you commit

Start with a 60-day pilot

Run Keelsum for one department or one site, on your own server, alongside the way you work today. Use it for real leave requests, real clock-ins and a real payroll check. At the end you decide, with your own numbers in front of you.

Questions

About buying Keelsum

How much does it cost?

One payment, priced by the number of staff, with every module included. After a short demo we give you a fixed price in writing, with exactly what it covers.

Do we pay per employee every month?

No. You pay once. After the first year there is an optional yearly plan for updates and support; Keelsum keeps working if you do not take it.

What do we pay for separately?

Your own server or hosting, your domain and email, an SMS or WhatsApp provider if you want those alerts, and storage for off-site backups. We tell you what is needed and can set it up with you.

We do not have a server. Can we still use it?

Yes. Keelsum runs on an ordinary hosting plan or a small cloud server, which you rent in your company’s name. We can recommend one and install Keelsum on it for you.

Who looks after the server?

The server is yours, so its uptime, upgrades and backups are your responsibility or your IT provider’s. We can do it for you as an add-on.

What happens when we grow?

Your quote states the number of staff it covers and how growth beyond it is handled, before you buy.
