- ✕No automatic P9, P10 or P10A tax reports
- ✕Missed statutory updates can trigger KRA penalties
- ✕No payslip or bank payment file generation
Generic / Foreign Cloud Payroll
International tools may handle basic payroll — but not always Kenyan statutory requirements.
- ✕Ongoing monthly or annual subscription costs
- ✕SHIF, NSSF Tier II and Housing Levy often not covered
- ✕P9/P10/P10A formats may not match KRA requirements
- ✕Needs an internet connection and still needs local setup
