Looking for a SalaryBox alternative? Avani Business OS matches SalaryBox on GPS attendance and Indian payroll (PF/ESI/TDS, Professional Tax), then adds CRM, projects, finance tracking, GST invoicing and KPIs. Free to start — no credit card.
GPS geo-fencing, mobile punch-in, shift rosters and late-mark detection — Avani matches SalaryBox's staff attendance with a real-time dashboard and auto-flow into payroll. No biometric hardware needed.
Like SalaryBox, Avani auto-calculates PF (12% + 12%), ESI (0.75% + 3.25% on gross ≤ ₹21,000), TDS under Section 192 and state Professional Tax, then generates PDF salary slips your team downloads themselves.
SalaryBox stops at attendance and payroll. Avani adds a full CRM — lead pipeline, call logging, numbered follow-ups and conversion analytics — so your sales team works in the same platform as HR.
Run projects with deliverables and sign-offs, assign tasks with deadlines, and schedule meetings with video calls. Avani is a full work OS, not just a salary register.
Track income, expenses and cash flow, and raise GST-compliant invoices with your logo — built in. SalaryBox has no finance or billing module; Avani replaces a separate accounting tool too.
Score employees on monthly KPIs, auto-rank them on attendance + task completion, and tie incentives to payroll. Performance management that SalaryBox's attendance-first app does not offer.
SalaryBox is primarily a staff attendance and payroll app for small businesses. Avani Business OS does the same attendance (GPS geo-fencing, shifts, late-marks) and the same Indian payroll (PF, ESI, TDS, Professional Tax, salary slips), but adds a full CRM, project management, finance tracker, GST invoicing, KPIs and team chat — so it runs your whole business, not just salary and attendance.
Yes. Avani auto-calculates Provident Fund (12% employee + 12% employer), ESI (0.75% + 3.25% on gross wages up to ₹21,000/month), TDS under Section 192, and state-wise Professional Tax. It generates India-compliant PDF salary slips that employees download from their own portal — the same statutory coverage SalaryBox offers.
Yes. Avani supports GPS-based mobile attendance with geo-fencing, so field and on-site staff clock in from their phone and their location is recorded. You can configure multiple office or site locations, and managers see attendance per location in real time — no biometric device needed.
No. You export your employee and salary data from SalaryBox and import it into Avani via CSV. Most businesses with up to 200 staff are fully live within one to two business days, with no disruption to the payroll cycle. There is no setup fee and a free trial to start.
You can use Avani purely for attendance and payroll if that is all you need today — it matches SalaryBox there. The advantage is that when you later need CRM, projects, invoicing or finance tracking, they are already in the same platform at no extra integration cost, instead of buying and connecting separate tools.
