Work out the return on one employee platform
Seven savings, each with the research or customer figure behind it. Cash and returned time are counted apart, and you choose how much of the time to credit — a quarter by default, not all of it.
The business case
What does one platform return in a year?
The seven savings below are the ones this page already publishes, with their sources. Set your own numbers and see which of them carry the case — and how little of the soft ones you have to believe.
Everyone who would use it. The employee minimum on a company subscription is 200.
Only this drives the onboarding saving. Your own figure — we publish no benchmark for turnover.
Salary, benefits and overhead. We publish no benchmark for this one; your finance team has the number.
An hour given back is not cash until it becomes output you sell or a hire you do not make. We default this low on purpose — set what your own finance team would accept, including zero.
3,000 employees — 1,200 at a desk, 1,800 without one — at $35 an hour
Cash saved a year
$188K
Licences you stop paying for, and IT time you stop spending. This leaves a budget line.
Time returned a year
700K hrs
Worth $24.5M at your hourly figure — but only if it becomes output you sell or a hire you do not make.
Counting 25% of that time, the year returns $6.3M against a $1.4M subscription — 4.5× what it costs.
Cash alone covers 13% of the subscription. For the rest to pay for itself you would have to believe 5.0% of the time this page says you get back.
Counting the cash savings alone, this does not pay for itself: they cover 13% of the subscription and you have counted no time against the rest.
Cash savings alone more than cover the subscription. Every hour returned is on top.
That is $2,104 per employee a year, against $468 of subscription.
What this arithmetic ignores
- Cash and time are counted separately and never added into one number. Only the first two savings leave a budget line; the rest give hours back.
- An hour returned is credited at the share you set, not at face value. At 100% this page would be claiming every recovered minute becomes money, which no finance team accepts.
- The hourly figure is applied to the IT time too, so that saving is understated wherever IT costs more than an average employee.
- It counts no implementation cost, no change management and no time spent learning the platform.
- The subscription figure is list price for the whole employee bundle, before the volume, term and non-profit discounts a proposal applies.
- This is arithmetic, not a quote.
What does another year of deciding cost? What are you paying for all of it?
