Keka offers a broad HRMS with payroll, statutory reports, geo-fencing, selfie attendance and biometric integration, plus hiring and project modules; its pricing page lists plans but not prices. FundRaksha HR is a narrower, attendance-and-payroll product with published prices of ₹49, ₹79 and ₹99 per employee per month + GST and a 30-day free trial. Choose Keka if you need a wide HR suite; consider FundRaksha HR if you want phone attendance and payroll at a known per-employee price.

Where Keka is stronger
- Breadth. Keka has hiring and project (PSA) products alongside HRMS. FundRaksha HR does not offer recruitment or project modules.
- Attendance capture options. Keka lists selfie attendance, continuous location punching for field staff, and integration with 200 biometric devices. FundRaksha HR lists GPS check-in and ZKTeco and eSSL devices, and does not advertise continuous tracking.
- Labour welfare fund. Keka lists LWF statutory reports. FundRaksha HR's website does not list LWF.
Where FundRaksha HR may fit better
- Known price before you talk to sales. FundRaksha HR publishes its per-employee prices and has a pricing calculator; Keka's pricing page does not show prices.
- No setup fee mentioned. Keka's FAQ mentions a nominal setup fee; FundRaksha HR's pricing page does not mention one.
- Phone attendance on the entry plan. GPS check-in with one phone per employee is on Standard at ₹49. On Keka, geo-fencing is listed from Strength.
- Simple for small teams. A focused product with a mobile admin app suits owner-run businesses.
Worked example: a 40-person company deciding
A logistics company in Chennai has 40 staff: 25 in the office and warehouse, 15 drivers and field executives. It needs GPS attendance for all, PF and ESI, and Tally export. It does not need recruitment software.
On FundRaksha HR Pro the cost is 40 × ₹79 = ₹3,160 a month + GST, known in advance. For Keka, the company would request a quote, since prices are not on the pricing page. If the company later wants applicant tracking and continuous route tracking, Keka covers those; FundRaksha HR does not.
The fair test is to run both trials with the same month's data and compare payslips and statutory files.
Switching checklist
- Export employees, salary structures and leave balances to Excel.
- Import them into FundRaksha HR with Excel import (Pro).
- Set offices and radius, shifts, holidays and leave types.
- Run one month in parallel and compare salary for every employee.
- Upload the PF ECR and ESI files to confirm they are accepted.
Every plan has a 30-day free trial with your real team, and there is no bill for the trial period. After that, you pay only for active employees in the month. See pricing.
Check statutory figures independently with the PF calculator and ESI calculator.
