HR software for 25 employees — enough structure, no bloat.
Managers appear, part-time patterns multiply and the person who owns HR can no longer answer everything from memory.

Questions people ask
How much is HollyHR for 25 employees?
At the published Standard price of £2 per active employee per month, 25 active employees cost £50 per month before applicable tax.
Does pricing jump at a headcount band?
No. Standard pricing is per active employee, so one new starter adds £2 per month rather than moving the whole account into a new band.
Can we import an existing staff spreadsheet?
Yes. HollyHR supports CSV import for the core people dataset, and the early-access onboarding process can help you map a clean source file.
Proper HR, without the big-system palaver.
HollyHR is free for up to 10 active people. We're onboarding early-access teams one at a time.
