Sincron HR Software vs. Breathe

Nonprofits, social-service agencies, and SMBs shouldn’t have to reshape their operations around software designed for a completely different kind of organization. Closing that gap is why we built this HR platform, serving teams from 30 up to 10,000 employees since our founding in 2007. We keep the cost structure realistic for this sector. The software itself is free, what you’re investing in is consulting and support, so every relationship starts with a free demo and follow-up conversations before anything is decided. From there, a free 60-day Implementation Trial (FIT) covers setup, onboarding, and training with your implementation consultant, giving your team real time to properly evaluate the system instead of a rushed 30-day decision. Walk away at any point if it’s not the right fit, at no cost. When you’re ready to go live, a one-time Go Live fee ($1,799, $899 for nonprofits) applies, with no long-term contract after that. Every core module is included in the subscription, at $12.50 per user per month ($10 for nonprofits), with optional add-ons priced separately. A CARF surveyor works directly within our team. That means advice on Community Living, Ministry of Children and Families, and equivalent U.S. state reporting comes standard rather than being added later. Compliance is simply part of how the system was designed. As a TechSoup partner (Canada & US), we’ve now completed over 100 implementations spanning the EU, Canada, and the USA, working with CARF-accredited organizations and similarly regulated agencies at very different scales.
