AgriSmart vs PayHero: Workforce Management vs Payroll Alone
Why add another app to the mix when AgriSmart already does it all? Instead of juggling separate tools, farmers get one connected platform that covers payroll, crew management, compliance, and on-farm operations. Purpose-built for agriculture, it keeps seasonal teams running smoothly and gives growers more time to focus on the work that matters most.

Why Farmers & Growers Are Choosing AgriSmart
Built in Payroll
AgriSmart connects payroll directly to your workforce, removing the stress and double handling that come with third-party systems. In New Zealand, payroll is built right in, while in Australia it’s fully integrated with Reckon Payroll for STP compliance. From wages and deductions to leave and tax, everything flows seamlessly, so you can be confident staff are paid accurately and on time every run.
Hiring & Compliance
Getting people onboarded the right way is just as important as paying them correctly. AgriSmart brings digital hiring, RSE compliance, and workforce onboarding into the same platform, so every worker is set up with the right agreements, records, and checks from day one. It’s designed for the realities of horticulture and farming, giving you peace of mind that compliance is being looked after while your team stays focused in the field.
All-in-One Platform
AgriSmart replaces the patchwork of separate apps and paperwork with one connected system. Rosters, timesheets, payroll, health & safety, job costing, task management, and more all work together in real time. That means fewer errors, less admin, and more time to focus on running your business. Instead of jumping between tools, you and your team have everything in one place, helping your operation stay streamlined and connected from the office to the field.
