What the buying committee actually pays
Culture-focused mid-market HRIS. US-only practical footprint. Renewal-uplift on multi-year contracts averages 12% per year unless capped in the MSA [2].
What is the PEPM range at 100-500 employees?
$12-$30 PEPM depending on tier and module count. Core Namely lands around $12-$18; full Talent + Managed Payroll lands $22-$30.
How is Payroll priced?
Two options: self-service Payroll (bundled with the platform PEPM) and Managed Payroll (separate, fully-managed by Namely's payroll ops team, priced per-employee-per-pay-period on top).
What is implementation?
$2,500-$12,000 depending on seat count and module scope. Implementation timeline is 8-14 weeks.
Is there a seat minimum?
50 seats is the floor. Smaller deployments are declined or routed to partners.
When does Namely beat BambooHR or HiBob?
For US-only culture-led mid-market buyers who want a single newsfeed-style social hub. BambooHR wins on TCO; HiBob wins on global culture. Namely sits between them on price.
