Personio pricing considerations
Paid plans / trial
Core or Core Pro forms the base package; recruiting, surveys and performance applications can extend it. Request an itemised quote for headcount, modules, onboarding and regional payroll requirements.
Personio offers sales-led demonstrations and tailored paid packages rather than a published permanent free HR plan.
Calculate costs from your vendor quote →What to check before choosing
- Core and Core Pro have different document, entity and integration allowances.
- Preliminary payroll data preparation is distinct from a fully scoped payroll service.
Test the same sample work, confirm your required plan and check how to export your data before committing.
