Common questions about our time tracking, leave management, and HR software.

PurelyHR is a modular HR software for managing employee records, time off, time tracking, performance reviews, disciplinary warnings, and employee certifications. The platform starts with the Staff module; then businesses can add modules such as Time-Off, Time-Clock, Time-Sheet, Performance, Warnings, and Talent based on their needs.

PurelyHR offers seven modules: Staff, Time-Off, Time-Clock, Time-Sheet, Performance, Warnings, and Talent. Staff is the required people management module, while the other modules can be added to manage leave requests, clock-ins, timesheets, reviews, infractions, certifications, training, licenses, and more.

PurelyHR is not a free software platform, but businesses can start with a 21-day free trial with no credit card required. Pricing is flexible and based on the number of active users using each selected module, so companies only pay for the tools and users they need.

For nonprofits, the most relevant PurelyHR modules are Staff, Time-Off, Time-Sheet, and Time-Clock. Staff helps centralize employee records and onboarding, Time-Off helps manage leave policies, Time-Sheet supports tracking hours by program, project, client, or task, and Time-Clock supports clock-in, clock-out, attendance visibility, and exportable timecard records.

Yes, PurelyHR includes support for its products through email and phone, along with maintenance and reference materials. PurelyHR also offers complimentary onboarding upon upgrade, helping customers get their account up and running with the support team.

PurelyHR supports secure HR data management with security controls and certifications including SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, ISO 27001 certification, SSO compatibility, and MFA enabled. PurelyHR also highlights secure employee data handling across its HR and workforce management tools.

PurelyHR pricing is flexible and module-based. The cost depends on the number of active users using each selected module, and administrators do not count toward the user count. PurelyHR also offers a 10% annual subscription discount and a 15% nonprofit organization discount, which can be combined when applicable

PurelyHR is designed for a quick, low-lift setup, especially for small and mid-sized teams moving from spreadsheets or manual HR processes. Setup timing depends on the modules selected, the number of employees, existing policies, and data readiness, but complimentary onboarding is available upon upgrade to help customers get started.
