Breathe (also written Breathe HR or BreatheHR) has helped UK small and medium-sized businesses manage their people since 2012. Instead of juggling spreadsheets and separate tools, you get one place for records, leave, documents, performance, reporting and compliance.
What you get as standard
Core HR covers secure employee records and documents, holiday and leave, sickness and absence, self-service, e-signatures, performance (goals, feedback, one-to-ones and reviews), and reporting and analytics.
Add more when you need it
Recruitment: job ads, hiring workflows and candidate tracking
e-Learning: UK-specific courses and completion tracking
Health and Safety: risk assessments, incidents and certifications
Expenses: claims, receipts and manager approvals
Rota, Time and Attendance: shifts, availability and hours
Coming soon: an AI Assistant that answers HR and policy questions from your company information, and payroll in late 2026.
The difference it makes
One accurate record means no more typing details twice. Self-service and shared workflows cut the chasing. And you can start with Core HR and add modules later, so it works even when HR is one person's part-time job.
Is Breathe right for you?
It works best for UK businesses with up to 200 employees moving HR off spreadsheets, especially with lean or shared HR roles. With 200+ staff or needs like multinational payroll or complex global compliance, look carefully first. Breathe isn't a global enterprise HCM (human capital management) suite.

From £24 a month per organisation, with no long-term contracts or hidden fees

Clockify

Clockify by CAKE.com is a time tracker and timesheet app with a user-friendly interface, an easy onboarding process, and a carefully selected set of features that meet customer needs precisely.
What makes Clockify stand out is that its time tracking is rather intuitive, and all the data can be saved and then used for analysis with Clockify Reports.
Another key aspect of Clockify is financial management.
Users can mark their time entries as billable or non-billable. Then, they can easily issue invoices for the billable hours only — no manual calculations required. This also increases billing accuracy and enables more efficient budget management.
One of the main benefits of using Clockify is that you can easily manage your team’s schedule, time off, and workload.
You can implement PTO policies and have your team request time off through Clockify.
And, you can define shifts for your employees and projects/tasks they should focus on, all in a single tool. Once set up, you can view your team’s tasks on a timeline and analyze its capacity, making sure no one is underutilized or overwhelmed with tasks.
With reports, you can even see and analyze whether you’re spending too much time on certain tasks, and how to better allocate the time at hand. Insights like these are invaluable in defining future projects and task allocation on a daily basis.
Clockify integrates with over 100 apps, including popular options like Jira, Zapier, Gmail, and more. Clockify integrates with other CAKE.com apps, Pumble and Plaky, too.
Clockify is made by a company established way back in 2009.
You get 24/7 human customer support to Clockify users on all plans (including the free one).

Synerion
Synerion is workforce management software built for organizations that need reliable, configurable, and technically sound tools to manage employee time, scheduling, and labor costs. Unlike lightweight apps or rigid legacy systems, Synerion focuses on precision and adaptability. Time can be captured through biometric clocks (fingerprint, facial recognition), proximity or card readers, mobile devices with geofencing, web browsers, or tablet kiosks. Each punch is validated in real time against rules for overtime, shift differentials, union agreements, and custom premiums, reducing downstream payroll exceptions. Offline support with automatic sync ensures data is never lost.
For developers and IT teams, Synerion offers a modern REST API, webhook support, and more than 100 prebuilt connectors to leading payroll, ERP, and HR platforms. Integration isn’t a CSV shuffle — data flows bi-directionally with support for SSO via SAML and OAuth. Audit trails, role-based permissions, encryption in transit, and configurable data-retention policies provide the security and compliance required by enterprise IT.
Managers gain centralized scheduling tools that can auto-assign shifts, handle rotations, balance skills across teams, and highlight coverage gaps. Labor allocation down to job, project, or cost center levels makes reporting and charge-backs straightforward. Finance and operations teams get dashboards that track hours, overtime, and costs in real time, with exportable audit-ready reports.
