Compare/Head to head

ComplianceHR vs NAVEX

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

ComplianceHR

Sales-quoted

ComplianceHR is still sold under that name after Littler Mendelson became sole owner on May 7, 2025. The employment-law software for HR and in-house counsel has no public rate card. Access is a demo.

Where ComplianceHR fits

  • HR and in-house counsel who need jurisdiction-specific answers across all 50 states
  • Companies generating handbooks and classification workflows from Littler content
  • Employers already in Littler's client base that want self-serve tools between matters
  • Ops and procurement teams that want audit-ready risk reports without a research fire drill

NAVEX

Sales-quoted

NAVEX One packages ethics hotline, policy management, training, and third-party risk. Pricing is tailored to headcount, regions, and which solutions you bundle.

Where NAVEX fits

  • Enterprises that need a speak-up hotline plus policy acknowledgement in one GRC vendor
  • Compliance teams already comparing EthicsPoint-class incident management
  • Global companies that want training, conflicts of interest, and third-party risk on the same platform
  • Buyers who will trade a custom quote for a bundled NAVEX One package

Where they pull apart

ComplianceHR

Stands out: Every workflow is backed by Littler's employment-law intelligence across federal, state, and local jurisdictions, including handbook generation, worker classification, and the Reference Center.

Watch out: This is legal-content software, not a substitute for counsel on a live matter. Capterra lists a $2,500/year figure that does not appear on the vendor site, so it is unused here.

Not the right fit for

  • SMBs that only need a $179 handbook download
  • Teams looking for payroll, time clocks, or a full HRIS

NAVEX

Stands out: NAVEX still leads with EthicsPoint-style whistleblower intake and says it supports 77 percent of the Fortune 100 and 500, with a stated option to save up to 30 percent when solutions are bundled.

Watch out: navex.com/en-us/request-pricing/ is a form, not a grid. Organization size, reporting volume, and module mix (hotline, policy, training, COI, TPRM) all change the quote.

Not the right fit for

  • Small employers that only need a laminated labor-law poster
  • HR teams that want a lightweight Slack kudos tool rather than a GRC suite

Pros and cons

ComplianceHR

  • Backed by Littler content rather than a generic policy template shop
  • Still sold as ComplianceHR after the 2025 full acquisition
  • Handbook, classification, and Reference Center in one employment-law suite
  • No public price
  • Eight Capterra reviews, not a large public review set
  • Does not replace outside counsel for disputes or investigations

NAVEX

  • Hotline, policy, training, and third-party risk can sit in one NAVEX One subscription
  • Bundle discounts are stated on the vendor pricing-request page
  • People Hub gives employees a single compliance portal
  • No public rate card. Every deal is scoped by headcount and modules
  • Capterra NAVEX One sits at 3.9 from 22 reviews
  • Implementation and multi-year uplift terms show up in buyer-community notes
