HR software your
organization owns
Ace HR installs on your own infrastructure and handles employees, attendance, leave, payroll, recruitment and performance. Buy the licence once, for however many people you employ — then keep the software, the source code, and your data.
- One-time licence, unlimited employees
- Runs on your servers, not ours
- Full source code included
Manual chaos, or a subscription
that owns your data
Organizations shopping for HR software are usually choosing between two bad options. There is a third.
HR still lives in spreadsheets
Attendance in one sheet, leave requests over chat, payroll recalculated by hand every month. It works until someone leaves, an audit arrives, or the file gets overwritten.
Per-seat pricing punishes growth
Most HR platforms bill monthly, per employee. The bill you signed up for at 20 people looks very different at 200 — and it never stops arriving.
Your workforce data sits on someone else's server
Salaries, bank details, and identity documents held by a vendor, under their retention policy, in their jurisdiction. For many organizations that is not an acceptable answer.
Ace HR is the third option: buy it once, run it yourself.
Software you buy,
not software you rent
Ace HR is sold the way business software used to be sold, because for a system holding your payroll and personnel records it is still the better arrangement.
It runs on your infrastructure
Employee records, salaries, and bank details sit in a database you control, behind your firewall, backed up on your schedule. There is no vendor copy of your workforce data because there is no vendor server.
You pay once, not per person per month
Per-seat HR subscriptions punish you for growing. A perpetual licence costs the same whether you have 20 employees or 2,000, and the cost stops after you have paid it.
You get the source code
The licence includes full source. If we disappeared tomorrow your HR system would keep running, and your own developers could keep changing it. That is the difference between renting software and owning it.
It can be built around how you work
Local payroll rules, an approval chain that matches your org chart, an integration with the accounting system you already run — custom work is quoted up front and merged into your copy.
Everything an HR team
actually runs on
A complete HR platform out of the box — no modules to buy separately, no upsells once you have the licence.
Employee Management
One authoritative record per employee — profile, department, designation, employment details, and documents.
Attendance Tracking
Employees clock themselves in and out. Admins get a live picture of who is present, late, or absent.
Leave Management
Requests, approvals, and history in one place, with everyone notified as things move.
Payroll & Payslips
Configurable salary structures, a monthly run, and PDF payslips your employees download themselves.
Recruitment & Careers Portal
Publish openings to a public careers page and manage applicants through to hire.
Role-Based Access Control
Super admins, admins, and employees each see exactly what they should — enforced on the API, not just hidden in the UI.
The modules are not
separate products
Buying five tools means reconciling five tools. Here is the same week, moving through two of them on its own.
Someone requests time off
The employee applies with a type, dates and a reason. It lands in an approval queue rather than a chat thread, an admin approves or rejects it in one click, and both sides keep the full history.
No export, no re-keying, no second system
Payroll already knows about it
The monthly run reads real attendance, subtracts the days covered by approved leave, and prorates what is genuinely unpaid against gross earnings. Nobody reconciles a spreadsheet against a leave calendar.
Running your own HR platform
in four steps
No procurement cycle, no seat count to negotiate, no annual renewal to budget for.
- 01
Buy the licence
One payment. You receive your licence key, the full source, and access to the release channel.
- 02
Install it
Deploy to your own server with your own PostgreSQL database — or have us do it for you as a paid add-on.
- 03
Configure your organization
Departments, salary components, leave types, and tax brackets, set to how your organization already works.
- 04
Invite your team
Employees are invited by email and set their own passwords. From day one they clock in, request leave, and pull their own payslips.
One price, paid once,
for your whole organization
No tiers to compare, no seats to count, no renewal you are obliged to pay.
