The short answer: JustLogin and QuickHR are both cloud, MOM/CPF/IRAS-compliant, IMDA pre-approved (PSG-eligible) HR & payroll platforms, and both cover the SME core — payroll, leave, claims, attendance and an employee app. For most Singapore businesses weighing the two, JustLogin is the stronger all-round pick — it adds native Hong Kong payroll on top of Singapore and Malaysia, publishes its pricing openly, files statutory data directly to the government through One Stop Payroll, and layers on an AI HR assistant and hardware clock-in. Here’s the honest, side-by-side breakdown so you can decide for your own situation.
| At a glance | JustLogin | QuickHR |
|---|---|---|
| Countries covered | Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong | Singapore, Malaysia |
| Statutory filing | Direct to CPF/IRAS/MOM via One Stop Payroll | Standard CPF/IRAS/MOM submission |
| Pricing | Published on website | Quote-only |
| AI HR assistant | Yes — Justina | Not offered |
| Hardware clock-in | SafeClock facial-recognition kiosks + mobile | Mobile only |
| Built-in ATS | Recruitment module available | Yes, built-in ATS |
Payroll & statutory compliance
Both automate itemised MOM payslips, CPF/SDL, Bank GIRO and IRAS submission (both support the Auto-Inclusion Scheme). Where JustLogin pulls ahead is One Stop Payroll (OSP) — the CPF Board / IRAS / MOM initiative that lets payroll systems submit statutory data directly to the agencies from one platform, rather than exporting and uploading through separate government portals. If reducing manual statutory steps at month-end matters to you, that’s a concrete advantage.
Multi-country coverage
This is a genuine, verifiable difference. QuickHR covers Singapore and Malaysia (CPF/FWL and EPF/SOCSO/EIS). JustLogin runs native payroll across Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong (adding MPF and IRD). If Hong Kong is in your footprint today — or likely to be as you grow — JustLogin handles all three from one platform, where QuickHR would leave the HK entity unsupported.
Leave, claims & attendance
Close on the essentials: both do leave with multi-level approvals, claims, and attendance with mobile clock-in, and QuickHR includes rostering. JustLogin adds facial-recognition hardware clock-in (SafeClock kiosks) alongside mobile GPS/face clock-in — useful if you run shift-based or on-site teams who don’t all carry a work phone.
HR, appraisal & recruitment
Real parity here — both go beyond payroll into people records, performance appraisal and recruitment (QuickHR ships a built-in applicant-tracking system; JustLogin covers recruitment too). This is the section to check feature-by-feature against your own workflow rather than assume a winner.
Employee self-service & AI
Both provide an employee mobile app for clock-in and leave/claim submissions. JustLogin adds Justina, an AI assistant that answers employees’ HR questions and guides submissions — offloading routine “how much leave do I have / how do I claim this” queries from your HR team.
Pricing transparency
JustLogin publishes its pricing on its website. QuickHR’s pricing is quote-only (a 14-day trial, but no public rates) — so you’ll need to request a quote to compare cost. Neither approach is wrong, but if you want to size the budget before you talk to sales, JustLogin gives you that upfront.
Which fits you?
For the typical Singapore SME — especially one that operates (or plans to) across SG/MY/HK, wants transparent pricing, values direct statutory submission, an AI HR assistant or hardware attendance — JustLogin is the stronger overall choice. QuickHR remains a solid, MOM-compliant SG/MY option with a built-in ATS and rostering, and is worth a look if those specific pieces are your priority. Both are IMDA-approved, so either can be PSG-supported.
Already on QuickHR and thinking about switching?
If you’re a QuickHR customer weighing a move — often triggered by expanding into Hong Kong, wanting clearer pricing, or reducing manual statutory steps — the good news is a switch is far less painful than most teams expect, and the cleanest cutover is the start of a new payroll year (1 January).
A well-run migration moves your employee master data, payroll history and year-to-date CPF/EPF figures, leave balances, statutory setup and integrations across, with a parallel payroll run before you fully cut over so nothing is lost. That’s exactly the kind of hand-holding a good vendor should own for you rather than leave you to self-serve. If you’d like to see how your QuickHR data would move over — and what your first JustLogin payroll run would look like — reach out for a walkthrough; it’s the fastest way to judge the switch for your own setup.
