Why Loket gets a 1.8

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyNo price is published, as the FAQ says costs depend on the organization, so it sits in the middle of payroll tools.
  • FFree plan and trialNo free plan and no trial; you request a demo.
  • BFeaturesPayroll, leave, sickness absence, expenses, digital files, workflows, dashboards and an AI assistant. The listing names no gap in the job.
  • CEase of useNo store rating on record. It is sold by demo and tied to Dutch rules, so there is setup.
  • CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only; the site does not list mobile apps and no integrations are recorded.

Keep Loket, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Loket you would be making payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 36 of the 61 other payroll services grade higher.

What you could make

  • Employee records, time off and expense tracking: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • Payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you.
  • Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
  • Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
  • The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

What this rests on. Loket’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is Loket?

Loket is an online payroll and HR platform from the Netherlands, used by employers and by accounting firms that run payroll for clients. It covers payroll, leave, sickness absence, expense claims, digital employee files, workflows, dashboards and an AI HR assistant. Pricing is quoted per organization.

Worth knowing

  • The FAQ says costs depend on the organization's needs, so no prices are published and pricing is unverified.
  • It is built for Dutch payroll and the site is in Dutch.
  • Sold through a demo request rather than self-serve sign-up.
  • The site does not list mobile apps.
