EK ERP vs Bidhee HRIS: Nepal HR and payroll compared
Choose Bidhee if you want HR, accounting and IRD billing from one vendor as separate products. Choose EK ERP if you want SSF, e-TDS and Bikram Sambat payroll stated on the vendor's page, published monthly NPR pricing, and HR, VAT invoicing and accounts in one system. Bidhee's HR page lists TDS, CIT and PF but not SSF, and states no price.

When Bidhee HRIS is the better choice.
- You want IRD-approved billing from the same vendor as your HR system. Bidhee sells billing as a separate product; EK ERP is not IRD-approved billing software.
- Your devices are not ZKTeco. Bidhee states biometric support without naming brands, so ask; EK ERP syncs ZKTeco only.
When EK ERP is the better choice.
- Your staff are in SSF. EK ERP handles the SSF split; Bidhee's HR page does not list SSF.
- You want HR, invoicing and accounts in one system with one login, not separate products.
- You want prices published before you talk to sales.
How EK ERP handles it.
- Each payroll run works out salary TDS with its own fiscal year's slabs, plus SSF and CIT, and exports the e-TDS salary sheet for each BS month.
- Leave types accrue on their own schedule against a BS holiday calendar, with self-service requests, approvals and live balances.
- Punches sync from ZKTeco attendance devices; staff without a device clock in from the mobile app inside a geofence.
- Salaries, VAT invoices and accounts live in one system, so payroll does not need posting into a second package.
- One login runs several companies, each with its own isolated database, on a monthly NPR plan rather than a per-employee fee.
- Nest Nepal moved HR, attendance and payroll from RealHRSoft to EK ERP in October 2026, with 5 ZKTeco devices; the case study has the details.
