Remote vs 7shifts FAQ
- Which one is cheaper?
- Remote starts lower at $29/mo, compared to $44/mo for 7shifts.
- Can I use either one for free?
- 7shifts has a free plan. Remote doesn't — you'll need to pay from day one.
- How do they charge?
- Different approach here. Remote uses per-seat pricing, while 7shifts goes with flat-rate. That changes the math depending on your team size and usage.
- Which one is a better deal?
- Depends on what you need. Remote: Remote's EOR at $699 sits in the mid-to-premium range of the category — Deel's comparable tier runs similar, while some newer entrants undercut on price. They're clearly targeting growth-stage companies that want a single vendor across the full employment lifecycle rather than stitching together point solutions, and the startup discount suggests they're actively trying to land early before companies scale. 7shifts: They're mid-market — not the cheapest (free tools like basic Square scheduling exist) but well below enterprise workforce platforms. At $44.99–$149.99/location, they're squarely targeting independent restaurants and small chains who've outgrown pen-and-paper but can't justify an HCM suite.
