WORKCO · COMPARED WITH HUMANSOFT

READ FROM THEIR OWN SITE 2026-09-04

HumanSoft is HR for the whole company. WorkCo is the system for the shop floor.

HumanSoft covers HR from recruitment through training and documents, and serves a great many Thai companies. WorkCo does the four jobs of a shift team, schedule, clock-in, leave and payroll, inside the LINE the team already uses. This page sets out the differences as they are, including the cases where you should choose HumanSoft.

Staff install nothing. WorkCo runs inside LINE itself Priced per location, not per user, so hiring does not raise the bill Thai social security and overtime built in; Taiwan runs on 特休, 加班費 and 勞健保

WHICH ONE

Which one you should choose

Choose HumanSoft if

  • You want HR for the whole company: recruitment, training, reviews and documents in one place
  • You want face or fingerprint scanning at the door
  • Most of your staff are office staff, not a shift team
  • You want someone to run payroll for you

Choose WorkCo if

  • Your team is already on LINE and you do not want to make anyone install an app
  • Your team is up to 20 people and you want to start free
  • You have branches and hire often, and do not want the bill to move every time
  • The schedule is the heart of your business and you want clock-in and payroll to follow from it
  • You operate in Taiwan as well

A NOTE

A word on hardware, plainly

A scanner by the door is not one object, it is a second system you own: power, a network, someone to mount it, and the day it fails nobody in the shop can clock in until a technician comes, so that month is reconstructed by hand. A new branch waits for equipment. And most scanners keep your staff's fingerprints or faces, which is data you are responsible for.

That is why WorkCo uses the phone each person already carries, and reads its position only at the tap. If you want a face scanner or a kiosk, HumanSoft offers them and we do not. If you would rather not look after a device, this is the single biggest difference between us. Read this in detail

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Is HumanSoft cheaper than WorkCo?
It depends on team size. Up to 10 people HumanSoft is free; up to 20 WorkCo is free, so between 11 and 20 we cost nothing and their packages begin. Above 20, they price by headcount within a package and we price per location. Take the current figure from their pricing page and set it against our ฿1,500 per location.
Do both handle Thai social security?
Yes. Both are built for Thai rules, and social security and withholding tax are in both systems. The difference is where the numbers come from: in WorkCo the hours come from check-ins bound to the assigned shift, with nothing retyped.
Is moving from HumanSoft to WorkCo hard?
Setting WorkCo up takes about two minutes: business name, shifts, then an invite link to each employee in LINE. Your history, such as leave already taken this year, has to be exported from their side first; we have no direct connection to HumanSoft.
