Contact us for a tailored cost estimate based on your headcount and required modules.

### How long does a Zoho People implementation take?

A standard Zoho People deployment for a 50–200 employee company typically takes 3–6 weeks with Wanas Apps. The timeline covers HR data migration, leave-policy configuration, attendance integration, and staff training. Complex multi-entity setups across UAE, KSA, and Egypt may extend to 8–10 weeks.

### Is Zoho People compliant with UAE and Saudi Arabia labor law?

Yes. Zoho People supports UAE Labour Law gratuity rules, WPS payroll file generation, and Saudi Arabia's GOSI contribution tracking. Wanas Apps configures these compliance rules during implementation and keeps them updated as regulations change, so your HR team stays audit-ready.
