Where they pull apart

AbsenceResources

Stands out: The same program includes ADA and pregnancy accommodation administration, including PWFA, plus state family leave. ComPsych says decision turnaround is under 2 days and that it has more than 5,700 absence customers.

Watch out: This is an administration service with software, not a system your HR team configures alone. The FMLASource name changed on 16 October 2025. No price is published.

Not the right fit for

  • Employers outside the United States
  • HR teams that want to make every eligibility decision themselves in their own software

Tilt

Stands out: AbsenceIQ is the vendor leave intelligence system, and Tilley is an AI phone assistant sold as a paid add on. Essentials lists all leave types and state PFML programs.

Watch out: Add ons change the headline price: integrations, premium support and the Tilley phone assistant are extra on Essentials, and adding premium support brings a $5,995 minimum contract. Coverage is US federal, state and company leave only.

Not the right fit for

  • Employers outside the United States
  • A buyer who wants a fully outsourced administrator and no internal leave work
