HRGrove review
A broad small-business HR suite with AI, mobile apps, and one feature-inclusive plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
HRGrove is a cloud and mobile HR management platform for small businesses, particularly teams with 1–50 employees. It brings together employee records, recruiting, onboarding, time tracking, PTO, performance management, compensation, compliance tracking, analytics, and employee self-service. Employees can request time off, clock in, view pay stubs, complete onboarding tasks, and access benefits and career information. Grove AI adds support for HR questions, document drafting, workforce analysis, and approved HR workflows, making the product a fit for small teams seeking broad HR coverage with AI assistance.
Pricing is straightforward in structure. The HRGrove plan includes all features, costs $39 per month plus $6 per active employee per month, and has no tiers or per-module fees. Another listed option also includes all features, charges $6 per active employee per month, and offers two months free, described as approximately 17% savings. A 30-day free trial is available, and the published plan structure keeps recruiting, onboarding, time, PTO, performance, analytics, and Grove AI together rather than separating them into paid modules. Businesses should compare the per-employee cost with their workforce size before choosing it.
Platform coverage includes web, iOS, Android, and an API. Integrations are listed for Zapier, Make, Gusto, ADP, Shopify, QuickBooks, Stride Health, Slack, and Microsoft Teams, giving small organizations several routes into payroll, accounting, automation, benefits, commerce, and workplace communication workflows. The employee portal and mobile access support distributed HR tasks, while two-factor authentication is the listed security control. HRGrove is a stronger fit for U.S. small businesses that want one broad system and AI-assisted administration. Larger organizations, teams outside the United States, or buyers seeking support beyond email should consider alternatives.
