Keka alternative

The all-in-one Keka alternative

Keka is a strong Indian HR and payroll platform aimed at established mid-market teams. DevCli targets the stage before that — smaller teams that want HR, payroll and hiring together without a long implementation or a minimum seat count.

Why teams choose DevCli

  • Indian payroll — EPF, 80C/80G/80CCD declarations, HRA and LTA
  • Full ATS in the same workspace, not a separate module purchase
  • No implementation project — self-serve setup
  • Transparent per-seat pricing with no minimums

Frequently asked questions

Does DevCli handle Indian payroll compliance like Keka?
DevCli supports EPF tracking, investment declarations under 80C, 80CCD(1B), 80G and 80TTA, and HRA and LTA exemptions. Professional Tax by state, PF/ESI return files and Form 16 are on the roadmap; until then, teams that need those filed from the payroll tool should keep their CA or a payroll bureau in the loop.
