Figures vs Functionly

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

Starting price

Figures

Sales-quoted

Figures is a European compensation platform for mid-market and enterprise HR. Pricing is based on employee count and the modules you pick (salary bands, benchmarking, pay equity, planning). The vendor does not print a dollar or euro rate.

Where Figures fits

  • European and UK mid-market HR teams building salary bands for EU pay transparency
  • Compensation leads who want live market data plus a planning calculator in one login
  • Companies connecting 30-plus HRIS options rather than uploading CSVs forever
  • Employers that need pay-equity analysis inside the same platform as bands

Functionly

$24/seat/mo 22 day free trial

Org-design and operating-model maps for restructures, with annual extra seats at $24/seat/mo and a 10-seat annual Starter pack at $240/mo.

Where Functionly fits

  • Leaders drawing current and future org charts with compensation hidden behind access control
  • Teams running vacancy and headcount plans in the same canvas
  • Consultants who want the partner plan to spin client workspaces
  • Companies that need scenario compare, cost and FTE forecast, then an API on Enterprise

Where they pull apart

Figures

Stands out: Benchmark data covers total rewards (base, variable, benefits) on 550,000 datapoints across 110-plus countries, with salary-band generation tied to that market set.

Watch out: Pay Equity Expert, population filters, and several other capabilities are optional paid add-ons on the comparison table. A demo is required for a quote. SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 are stated.

Not the right fit for

  • US SMB buyers who want a printed CompAnalyst-style store price
  • Teams that only need a free market-data lookup without salary-band software

Functionly

Stands out: A 22-day trial is printed on the pricing page, and annual Starter is $240/mo for 10 seats, which is $24 per seat per month.

Watch out: Annual plans require 10 user seats. Monthly extra seats are $48/seat/mo, so the cheap $24 figure is the annual toggle, not month-to-month.

Not the right fit for

  • Enterprises that want Orgvue-class expert modeling and SWP add-ons
  • Buyers who cannot commit to 10 annual seats

Pros and cons

Figures

  • Modular platform so you can buy bands without every analytics add-on
  • 550k total-reward datapoints across 110-plus countries on the benchmark module

  • No published seat or PEPM number
  • Pay equity and several filters are add-ons, so the demo quote can climb
  • European-first positioning. US-only shops may prefer a US data vendor

Functionly

  • Printed annual Starter and Advanced rates plus a 22-day trial
  • Compensation fields with access control, not just boxes and lines
  • Enterprise API and SOC 2 when you outgrow CSV imports
  • Annual billing has a 10-seat minimum
  • Monthly extra seats cost twice the annual extra-seat rate on Starter
  • Capterra has no matched review base for Functionly
