Depends

Should I use Keka?

Book a demo — all-in-one HR and payroll platform - keka.com

· 1 week ago

Buy it if you run a mid-sized (roughly 50–1,000 person) India-based company wanting payroll, attendance, and hiring in one system. Don't buy it if you're a small team needing simple HR tracking or transparent self-serve pricing.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~40 public sources. Some noise filtered out: an unrelated macOS file archiver also named Keka appeared in results and was excluded.
