Company that needs WPS filing and group health insurance in one place
Bayzat is the more direct fit — its insurance marketplace and automated WPS/SIF are built for exactly this.
WatheeqaHR vs Bayzat for UAE SMEs — Which One Fits?
Bayzat is a full UAE-built HR, payroll and insurance platform with automated WPS/SIF filing and MOHRE submission, plus an embedded insurance marketplace comparing 30+ insurers — priced per employee on a custom quote. WatheeqaHR is a smaller, focused tool for attendance import, leave, an internal salary ledger and document expiry tracking, at one flat price — it does not file WPS/SIF or offer insurance brokering. If you need WPS filing and insurance shopping in the same system, Bayzat fits that directly. If you just want Excel-based attendance and salary tracking replaced simply, WatheeqaHR is built for that narrower gap.
Features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Official WPS/SIF filing + MOHRE submission | Bayzat automates WPS/SIF generation and MOHRE submission, paying via UAE banks and exchange houses. WatheeqaHR records payment references and generates a bank transfer file, but does not file WPS/SIF |
| Insurance marketplace | Bayzat's standout feature — compare and manage 30+ UAE health insurers, claims processing, all in the same platform. WatheeqaHR has no insurance features at all |
| Attendance & leave | Both cover attendance tracking, time-off/leave management, and shift scheduling as core features |
| Employee document expiry tracking | WatheeqaHR treats this as a core feature (visa/Emirates ID/passport alerts); Bayzat covers document management as part of its broader compliance suite |
| Pricing model | Bayzat uses custom pricing based on company size, selected modules and requirements — no fixed public price, request a quote directly from Bayzat. WatheeqaHR is one flat price per plan (AED 99 or 199/month) |
| Company size fit | Bayzat serves 10-500+ employees, and smaller companies (under 10) may find its pricing high for their size. WatheeqaHR is built for the 5-100 employee range specifically |
| Scope | Bayzat also covers recruitment, performance management, and workforce analytics — a broader HR suite. WatheeqaHR stays scoped to attendance, leave, salary ledger and documents |

Frequently asked questions
Does WatheeqaHR do WPS filing like Bayzat does?
No. Bayzat automates WPS/SIF generation and MOHRE submission. WatheeqaHR generates a bank transfer file and records payment references for internal tracking, but does not file official SIF files — you'd still use your bank or a licensed provider for that step.
Does WatheeqaHR offer health insurance like Bayzat?
No. Bayzat's insurance marketplace (comparing 30+ UAE insurers) is one of its core features. WatheeqaHR has no insurance functionality at all — it's focused on attendance, leave, salary ledger and document expiry.
Is WatheeqaHR cheaper than Bayzat?
WatheeqaHR is a flat AED 99 or 199/month regardless of exact employee count within its tier. Bayzat prices on a custom quote based on company size and selected modules, so total cost depends heavily on headcount and which features you need — request a current quote directly from Bayzat and compare against your specific company size.
Why would I choose WatheeqaHR over a more complete platform like Bayzat?
If you don't need WPS filing or insurance brokering built into the same system, and your actual pain is Excel-based attendance and salary tracking for a small team, WatheeqaHR is a narrower, simpler, flat-priced tool rather than a full HR+insurance suite.
