The panel's verdict
Humaans is an HR management platform scoring best on employee data governance and core HR records (a flat 6), and weakest on recruiting and onboarding and payroll readiness. Governance is the strength: a published DPA, permissions down to individual fields, an immutable searchable audit log, deletion within 90 days with written certification, and built-in tooling for GDPR Articles 15–22. Core records carry effective-dated, exportable compensation and role history; we found no public information on org charts or multi-entity structure. Payroll readiness splits, 3 to 4: lower scores call preliminary payroll a generic export naming no payroll system or format, higher ones credit the tracked change log while noting the same gaps. Time and absence covers fourteen leave types and 190-plus public holiday calendars but leaves working-time capture as a module name. Sovereignty sits at 4: EU hosting on Google Cloud Platform is stated, the captured pages give different figures for the contracting entity, and we found no published subprocessor list. No prices are published.
Speaks for it
- Employee data governance scored 6–7 on a published DPA, field-level permissions with custom roles, an immutable searchable audit log and built-in GDPR Articles 15–22 tooling
- Core HR records scored a flat 6, with effective-dated compensation and role history that can be viewed and exported
- Absence handling scored 4–5 with fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, and 190-plus public holiday calendars
- Deletion is executed rather than promised — self-service employee-record deletion, a 90-day purge of remaining copies, and written certification on request
- Security details are published: SSO via Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra and SAML 2.0, TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256 at rest
Held against it
- Recruiting and onboarding scored 2–3 — no applicant tracking or careers page appears in the published module list
- Payroll readiness scored 3–4 — preliminary payroll names no payroll system and defines no export format, so the month-end handoff rests on trust
- Working-time capture appears only as a Timesheets module name, with no public information on entitlement, carry-over, overtime accounts or the German working-time recording duty
- AI features are enabled by default when a customer account is created, though administrators can disable them
- The captured pages give different figures for the contracting entity — Humaans Software UK LTD in the DPA, Humaans Inc. in the site footer — and we found no published subprocessor list, only fourteen days' notice of additions
Best for
- You need a defensible data-protection base — field-level permissions, immutable audit logs, executed deletion and GDPR subject-rights tooling — for works council or DPO review
- You are consolidating people data out of spreadsheets and need effective-dated, exportable compensation and role history
- You manage distributed teams and need location-aware absence handling with 190-plus public holiday calendars and custom leave types
- You keep payroll with an external provider and only need a tracked, exportable change log ahead of each run
Avoid if
- You expect to run hiring end to end in one system — the published list of twenty modules shows no applicant tracking or careers page
- You need payroll data to flow to a named system in a defined format — the preliminary payroll page names no provider and defines no export format
- You must document the full subprocessor chain or a single contracting entity before procurement can sign
- You must evidence German working-time recording now — working time appears only as a Timesheets module name, with no public statement on the recording duty

Digital personnel file & data model
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The system of record: employee master data, the digital personnel file, org structure, custom fields, and whether history is kept rather than overwritten.
0 — A contact list with job titles; no document storage, no org structure, no history — changes overwrite what was there.
3 — Employee records with document upload, but a flat structure: no org chart, few or no custom fields, and no dated history of contract or salary changes.
5 — Digital personnel file with structured document types, an org chart, custom fields, and change history on the core employment fields.
8 — Complete record: versioned contract and compensation history with effective dates, document templates with e-signature, org structure supporting multiple entities and cost centres, and granular field-level permissions.
10 — The file is the single source of truth an auditor could work from: full effective-dated history on every field, retention rules per document type, delegated administration per entity, and export that reproduces the record intact.
The People Lead
Employee records carry role and compensation history with effective dates that can be viewed and exported, custom data sets let me model what my eleven spreadsheets held, and permissions go down to individual fields — the record would be true. We found no public information on an org chart, structured document types with e-signature, or an org structure spanning multiple entities and cost centres, so I cannot confirm the file is complete. 1 4 5
The Payroll Officer
Role and compensation records carry effective dates with historical changes that can be viewed and exported — exactly what I need when a raise was backdated — and permissions run down to individual data fields. I found no public information on an org chart, multi-entity or cost-centre structure, document templates with e-signature, or retention rules per document type, so this is a strong file but not the complete one. 5 4 1
The Works Council Advocate
The employee database pages show a real personnel file: employment and role details with effective dates and historical changes that can be viewed and exported, multi-currency compensation history, custom data sets, and permission controls down to individual fields. What I miss for a complete record is any public information on an org chart, document templates with e-signature, or org structures spanning several entities and cost centres. 5 1 4
The Data Protection Officer
The personnel file keeps effective-dated history on compensation and role changes that can be viewed and exported, and permissions reach down to individual fields with custom roles — a real record, not a contact list. We found no public information on an org chart, multi-entity or cost-centre structure, or document templates with e-signature, so it stops short of the complete-record mark. 1 4 5
The IT Integrator
Role and compensation details carry effective dates with historical changes that can be viewed and exported, custom data sets are supported, and permissions reach down to individual fields — this is a real record, not a directory. We found no public information on an org chart, document templates with e-signature, or org structure across multiple entities and cost centres. 1 4 5
The Skeptic
The employee database page shows the bones of a real system of record: compensation and role details with effective dates and exportable history, custom data sets, employment details, and field-level permissions backed by an immutable audit log. We found no public information on org charts, multi-entity or cost-centre structure, document templates with e-signature, or retention rules per document type, so this stops short of a complete record. 1 4 5
Payroll handoff
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether the month closes cleanly into payroll — DATEV, Lohn und Gehalt, an in-house system or an external tax adviser — and how much of that is automated rather than re-typed.
0 — No payroll path stated at all; whatever leaves the system leaves as a spreadsheet somebody retypes.
3 — Generic CSV export said to be usable for payroll, with no named payroll system, no defined format and no handling of mid-month changes.
5 — A named payroll integration or a documented export format for at least one major system (e.g. DATEV LODAS/Lohn und Gehalt), covering the recurring monthly fields.
8 — Certified or vendor-maintained integration with a named payroll provider, covering variable pay, absences and mid-month joiners and leavers, with a documented pre-payroll check.
10 — Payroll is a first-class part of the product: maintained bidirectional integrations with several named systems, an auditable approval and lock step before transmission, retro-accounting for backdated changes, and the tax adviser given their own access.
The People Lead
Preliminary payroll tracks every change and exports payroll-ready data that is "ready for your payroll provider", which is a genuine change log for the month close. We found no public information naming any payroll system or documenting an export format, and nothing on mid-month joiners and leavers or a pre-payroll check, so someone is still retyping into whatever produces the payslips. 1 6
The Payroll Officer
The preliminary payroll page says all changes are tracked, exportable and ready for your payroll provider, which is the right instinct, but I found no public information on a named payroll system, a defined export format, mid-month joiners and leavers, variable pay, a pre-payroll check, or retro-accounting for backdated changes. Until a named system and a named format appear, that export is somebody retyping into the payroll run. 6 1
The Works Council Advocate
A preliminary payroll module tracks changes and exports data the vendor calls ready for your payroll provider across locations and regions. But we found no public information naming a payroll system, and nothing on a defined export format, a pre-payroll check, or mid-month joiners and leavers, so the month-end handoff rests on trust. 6 1
The Data Protection Officer
The captured pages describe a preliminary-payroll step that tracks changes and exports data "ready for your payroll provider", which covers recurring fields but little more. We found no public information naming any payroll system, defining an export format, or covering variable pay and mid-month joiners and leavers, so this reads as a generic handoff rather than an integration. 1 6
The IT Integrator
The preliminary payroll feature promises data that is "ready for your payroll provider", with changes tracked and exportable across locations. We found no public information naming a payroll system, defining an export format, or handling mid-month joiners, leavers and variable pay, so this reads as a generic export rather than a handoff. 1 6
The Skeptic
The whole payroll story is one page of preliminary payroll: changes are tracked and "exportable and ready for your payroll provider" — the page names no payroll system, defines no export format, and we found no public information on variable pay, absences flowing to payroll, mid-month joiners and leavers, or a pre-payroll check. That is a generic export somebody's payroll clerk will re-type. 1 6
Absence & working-time
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Vacation, sickness and working-time recording — including whether the product meets the German recording duty (BAG 2022, ArbZG) rather than merely offering a timer.
0 — No absence or time handling; both live in a spreadsheet elsewhere.
3 — Vacation requests with an approval step, but entitlement is manual, carry-over is not handled and there is no working-time recording.
5 — Automatic entitlement and carry-over, sickness recording, an absence calendar, and basic working-time capture with a report per employee.
8 — Configurable per country and contract: pro-rata entitlement, public-holiday calendars per location, break and rest-period rules, overtime accounts, and an export the employer can hand to a labour inspection.
10 — Working-time recording built as a legal obligation rather than a feature: tamper-evident records, documented compliance with the ArbZG recording duty, works-council-configurable monitoring limits, and shift or on-call models handled without add-ons.
The People Lead
Fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, 190+ public holiday calendars and a timesheets module cover a fair share of the vacation half. We found no public information on automatic entitlement and carry-over calculation or on working-time capture in any detail against the German recording duty, and without entitlement automation my vacation spreadsheet survives. 1 7
The Payroll Officer
Absence is genuinely covered — fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, and 190+ public holiday calendars — and a Timesheets module appears in the module list. I found no public information on automatic entitlement and carry-over, overtime accounts, break and rest rules, or any statement on the German working-time recording duty, so the working-time half rests on a module name. 7 1
The Works Council Advocate
Fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, 190-plus public holiday calendars and a timesheets module give solid location-aware absence handling. From a works-council chair's view the duty question stays open: we found no public information on automatic entitlement and carry-over, break and rest-period rules, overtime accounts, or any statement on the German working-time recording duty and tamper-evident records. 7 1
The Data Protection Officer
Absence is genuinely covered — fourteen leave types including sickness, custom types configurable by location or team, and 190+ public-holiday calendars — but working-time capture appears only as a timesheets module name with no detail. We found no public information on automatic entitlement and carry-over, break and rest-period rules, overtime accounts, or any statement on the German working-time recording duty, which for me is the obligation this criterion exists to test. 1 7
The IT Integrator
Fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, and 190+ public holiday calendars are genuine substance, and a timesheets module is listed by name only. We found no public information on automatic entitlement, carry-over, overtime accounts, or any treatment of the German working-time recording duty. 1 7
The Skeptic
The absence side is credible: fourteen leave types including sick days, custom types configurable by location or team, paid and unpaid tracking, self-service requests, and 190-plus public holiday calendars. The working-time half is the gap — we found no public information on automatic entitlement, carry-over, what the Timesheets module actually records, or any treatment of the German recording duty. 1 7
Recruiting & onboarding
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The join path — vacancy to signed contract to a person who has an account, equipment and a plan on day one.
0 — Neither applicant tracking nor onboarding exists; hiring happens in a shared inbox.
3 — A basic applicant list with statuses, or an onboarding checklist — one of the two, without the handover between them.
5 — Applicant tracking with a careers page, structured stages and rejection handling, plus a checklist-driven onboarding that carries the hired candidate over into an employee record without re-entry.
8 — Multi-posting to named job boards, interview scheduling and scorecards, GDPR-conscious applicant retention and deletion, e-signed contracts, and onboarding that triggers tasks in IT and payroll.
10 — The whole join is one governed flow: approval-gated requisitions with budget, structured and bias-conscious evaluation, automated applicant deletion at the stated deadline, and provisioning driven from the record so day one needs no HR intervention.
The People Lead
Onboarding and offboarding automation is stated as a capability, with workflow automation and provisioning-style modules to hang it on. We found no public information on applicant tracking, a careers page or structured hiring stages — candidate data appears only in privacy and retention contexts — so the path before the signed contract stays in the shared inbox. 1 2
The Payroll Officer
Onboarding automation is real — the product automates onboarding and offboarding — but I found no public information on applicant tracking, a careers page or structured hiring stages, and the candidate retention period in the privacy policy concerns people applying to Humaans itself. One half of the join path exists, with no captured handover from hiring. 1 2
The Works Council Advocate
Onboarding appears only as a phrase inside the automation module's list, and candidate data surfaces in retention clauses, but we found no public information on applicant tracking, a careers page, interview scheduling, or an onboarding checklist that hands tasks to IT and payroll. Without evidence of either half done properly, the join path cannot be assessed, let alone approved. 1 2
The Data Protection Officer
Onboarding and offboarding automation is stated, but we found no public information on applicant tracking, a careers page, structured stages or rejection handling, so the join path is evidenced only from offer onwards. Candidate and recruitment data is stated to be retained for up to five years to consider people for future roles, and we found no public information on automated deletion at a stated deadline — the exact mechanism I look for in applicant handling. 1 2
The IT Integrator
Workflow automation covers onboarding and offboarding, but applicant tracking appears nowhere in the published module list — we found no public information on a careers page, job posting or interview handling, so only half the join path exists. Nothing in the captured pages shows onboarding creating an account or triggering tasks in IT and payroll, which is the test I apply. 1
The Skeptic
The module list runs to twenty modules and we found no applicant tracking or careers page among them; onboarding exists as a phrase about automating it, with no checklist, tasks or handover into an employee record shown. Candidate data retained up to five years in the privacy policy says candidates are stored somewhere, but the join path from vacancy to day one is not on public display — we found no public information on interview scheduling, scorecards or e-signed contracts. 1 2
Employee data protection & co-determination
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How the product handles the most sensitive personal data a company holds — retention, deletion, role separation, subject rights — and whether it can pass a works council (BetrVG §87) rather than merely a procurement checklist.
0 — No stated retention or deletion handling, no role model beyond admin-or-not, and no DPA offered on the site.
3 — A DPA exists on request and roles are coarse; retention and deletion are described as something the customer arranges themselves.
5 — A signable DPA is published, roles are configurable per module, applicant and employee retention periods are stated, and deletion can be executed rather than only promised.
8 — Field-level access control with an audit log of who read what, configurable retention per data category with automatic deletion, documented subject-rights support, and monitoring or analytics features that can be switched off for co-determination.
10 — Built for the works council to say yes: published processing documentation and subprocessor list, per-entity data separation, tamper-evident audit trail, evaluation and behavioural-analysis features off by default with their scope documented, and a data-protection impact assessment the customer can build on.
The People Lead
A published DPA, an appointed DPO, subject-rights tooling for GDPR Articles 15–22, deletion that is executed rather than only promised, field-level permissions and an immutable, searchable audit log of every action — that is a package I can start a works council conversation with. We found no public information on retention configurable per data category or on switching monitoring and analytics off, and the AI is enabled by default when an account is created, though administrators can disable it. 2 3 4 8 9
The Payroll Officer
The published DPA, appointed DPO, executable deletion (individual records at any time, a 90-day purge, certificate on request), subject-rights tooling for Articles 15-22, and immutable audit logs with permissions down to the field give me a governance base I could defend. It stops before the works-council conversation: we found no public information on customer-configurable retention per data category or on switching analytics and monitoring off, and the AI features are enabled by default when an account is created, with admin opt-out. 8 3 4 2 9
The Works Council Advocate
This is the part I can actually work with: a published DPA, an appointed data protection officer, field-level access control, immutable searchable audit logs filtered by actor, action and field, deletion within ninety days with written certification, and built-in tooling for GDPR Articles 15 to 22. Three things keep it below the top level for co-determination: the AI features are enabled by default when an account is created, we found no public information on whether a manager's reading of an employee file is logged, and retention periods read as fixed by the vendor rather than configurable per data category. 8 9 4 3 2
The Data Protection Officer
The DPA is published with a named processor role, deletion executes rather than promises — self-service employee-record deletion, a 90-day purge, written certification of deletion — and permissions are field-level over an immutable, searchable audit log with built-in GDPR Articles 15–22 tooling and DPIA assistance. Three things hold it back from the works-council mark: we found no public information naming the subprocessors (only a 14-day change-notice commitment), retention periods are fixed rather than configurable per data category, and AI features are enabled by default when an account is created, with administrators able to disable them. 2 3 4 8 9
The IT Integrator
Field-level permissions with custom roles, an immutable searchable audit log recording who, what, when and where — with a justification prompt on internal access to employee data — plus a published DPA, stated retention periods, records deletable at any time and built-in subject-rights tools put this near the top band. The gaps: we found no public information on a published subprocessor list or configurable retention per data category, and AI is enabled by default when a customer account is created, which is a conversation a works council will want to have even though administrators can disable it. 2 3 4 8 9
The Skeptic
The protection story is the strongest thing here: a published DPA, field-level permissions with custom roles, an immutable searchable audit log with who, what, when and where, self-service deletion of employee records, built-in subject-rights support for GDPR Articles 15-22, and DPIA assistance. Two things hold it back: AI is enabled by default when a customer account is created, and we found no public information on retention configured per data category for employee data, on logging of reads rather than actions, or on switching people analytics off for co-determination. 2 3 4 8 9
European sovereignty
panel opinion
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Where the data lives, who the contracting entity is, who the subprocessors are, and whether the answer is documented rather than assumed. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as the buyer would weigh it.
0 — US-headquartered vendor, US contracting entity, hosting region unstated or US, subprocessors not named.
3 — EU hosting is offered as an option but the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is incomplete or absent.
5 — EU hosting stated as standard and an EU contracting entity, but the subprocessor chain includes non-EU providers without an explained safeguard.
8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, an EU contracting entity, the full subprocessor list published, and any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, contracting entity, hosting and every subprocessor in the EU, certification of the data centres published, and an on-premises or private-cloud option for buyers who need it.
The People Lead
Hosting in the EU on Google Cloud Platform is stated as standard with the provider's certifications listed, and AI processing defaults to the EEA or Switzerland with US use only by agreement. But the captured pages give different figures for the contracting entity — Humaans Software UK LTD in the DPA and Humaans Inc. in the site footer — and we found no published subprocessor list, so the chain procurement would have to document is not visible. 1 3 8
The Payroll Officer
Customer personal data is stated to be hosted in the EU on Google Cloud Platform with its certifications listed, and out-of-EEA transfers carry Standard Contractual Clauses with transfer impact assessments. The contracting entity is unsettled — the captured pages give different names, Humaans Software UK LTD in the DPA and Humaans Inc. in the footer, with offices in London, New York and San Francisco — and we found no published subprocessor list; AI processing can move to the US by agreement. EU hosting as standard alongside a non-EU contracting situation and an unpublished subprocessor chain leaves this in the middle for a European buyer. 3 8 1 2
The Works Council Advocate
The DPA and GDPR pages state hosting in the EU on Google Cloud Platform, with AI processing defaulted to the EEA or Switzerland and standard contractual clauses for transfers. But the captured pages give different contracting entities — Humaans Inc. with New York and San Francisco offices in the footer, Humaans Software UK LTD in the DPA — and we found no public information on the subprocessors beyond fourteen days' notice and objection mechanics. 3 8 1
The Data Protection Officer
Hosting is stated as EU-standard on Google Cloud Platform with the provider's certifications published, transfers covered by Standard Contractual Clauses with impact assessments, and AI processing defaulting to the EEA or Switzerland with a US option by agreement. But the captured pages give different figures for the contracting entity — Humaans Inc. in the footer, Humaans Software UK LTD in the DPA — and we found no public information naming the subprocessors, so the chain is not documented end to end. 1 2 3 8
The IT Integrator
Customer data is stated to be hosted in the EU on Google Cloud Platform as standard, with Standard Contractual Clauses for any non-EU transfers and AI processing defaulting to the EEA or Switzerland. The captured pages name different contracting entities — Humaans Software UK LTD in the data processing agreement, Humaans Inc. in the site footer — and we found no public information on a published subprocessor list, so the EU story is a hosting fact rather than an end-to-end chain. 1 2 3 8
The Skeptic
Hosting is stated as EU-standard on Google Cloud Platform with the provider's certifications listed, transfers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses with impact assessments, and AI processing defaults to the EEA or Switzerland — solid, verifiable parts. But we found no published subprocessor list (the DPA promises only fourteen days' notice of additions), and the captured pages give different figures for the contracting entity — Humaans Software UK LTD on the DPA against Humaans Inc. with New York and San Francisco offices in the footer — with the UK ICO named as complaint authority. 1 2 3 8
Pricing transparency
not rated — the vendor publishes no price
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether an HR lead can compute the real annual invoice for their headcount — including the modules they actually need — from public pages alone.
0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.
3 — An entry price per employee exists, but the modules most buyers need are unpriced, or a minimum headcount, setup fee or mandatory onboarding package is not stated publicly.
5 — Per-employee prices are public for the main tiers with the billing period stated, but at least one commonly needed module (payroll, time, recruiting) hides in an unpriced bundle.
8 — Every tier and module priced publicly with per-employee maths, billing period, minimum term and VAT treatment stated; only genuinely custom enterprise work lacks a number.
10 — Complete price computability: a calculator or table that produces the annual invoice for a given headcount and module selection, including setup, minimums and renewal terms.
The People Lead
The captured homepage shows a Plans link with no prices behind it, and we found no public per-employee price, module price, billing period, term or setup fee anywhere. I cannot compute the annual invoice for 400 people from public pages, so the number only exists after a sales conversation. 1
The Payroll Officer
The homepage shows a Plans link with no prices behind it, and I found no public information on per-employee pricing for any tier, billing period, minimum term, setup fees or module pricing. An HR lead cannot compute any part of the annual invoice from what is published. 1
The Works Council Advocate
The captured homepage shows a plans link without figures, and we found no public information on per-employee prices, tier contents, billing period, minimum term or setup fees. No HR lead and no works council can compute an annual invoice from what is published. 1
The Data Protection Officer
The captured pages show a "Plans" link with no prices on it, and we found no public information on per-employee pricing, module costs, billing period, minimums or setup fees. An HR lead cannot compute any part of the real annual invoice from public pages alone. 1
The IT Integrator
The captured homepage shows a Plans link with no prices on it. We found no public information on per-employee pricing, module pricing, billing period, minimum term or setup costs, so no annual invoice can be computed from public pages. 1
The Skeptic

Questions about Humaans
Is Humaans European?
Not determined: the vendor’s pages as captured do not say where Humaans is based.
Where does Humaans store data?
The default storage location for customer data is not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 20 Oct 2026. The vendor’s pages mention the EU as hosting location, per the vendor’s page captured 20 Oct 2026.
Does Humaans have a free plan?
Not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 20 Oct 2026.
What are the best alternatives to Humaans?
As of 21 Oct 2026, the panel rates rexx systems (3.5/5), HRworks (3/5) and Kenjo (3/5) highest among the other 30 HR Management products evaluated. Ratings that look equal are rounded to half stars; the order uses the unrounded rating, then the name. The highest-rated European alternative is rexx systems (EU-Made). Ratings are the AI panel’s opinion, formed from public evidence: how scores are made. The full list, with European products first: Humaans alternatives.
Where this could be wrong
- Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 20 Oct 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
- Weak sourcing — Legal entity, Data residency. Not confirmed on the vendor’s own pages as captured.
- AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
What we left out
A claim that does not survive our checks costs us the claim, not the page. This is what was taken off this one.
