Logib vs Paygaps.de

Logib is a free web application that helps employers analyse equal pay and review pay practices. The Federal Office for Gender Equality provides it on behalf of the Confederation. Its two analysis modules suit different employer sizes: Module 1 targets larger companies and uses semi-logarithmic OLS regression to assess gender-related pay differences after accounting for personal and job-related characteristics. It is technically usable from 50 employees. Module 2 uses analytical job evaluation, suits smaller companies, and can provide information from as few as two employees; the listed plan describes it for 2–49 employees. Results include interpretation guidance, recommendations, a summary, a tender self-declaration document and a gauge-style display, with PDF and Excel downloads. A separate Logib pay system supports assessing job functions and their value, organising pay grades and bands, and planning pay development. Wage data is sent to the Confederation server encrypted for analysis and deleted afterward; results are not stored there, and data is not passed to third parties. The web app requires JavaScript and supports the latest two versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari.

Paygaps.de is web-based software for German HR and payroll teams evaluating roles and documenting equal pay. It calculates adjusted and unadjusted pay gaps by role and comparison group, with alerts at the 5% threshold. Role evaluations use competence, demands, responsibility, and working conditions; users can set work-related sub-criteria and weights. The software handles employee information requests with deadline monitoring and PDF replies, and produces pay reports for PDF export. Compensation tools include salary bands, job architecture, a hiring check, and a workflow for compensation adjustments. Integrations include DATEV, CSV/Excel, Personio, Sage HR, Workday, and SAP SuccessFactors; other systems can be connected on request from Business. DATEV supplies monthly values, while other HR integrations supply current-state data, and integration providers may charge fees. SaaS data is stored in Frankfurt am Main. Plans start at €249 a month for Starter, which includes up to 250 employees and 2 user accounts. A 14-day trial requires no payment details and ends without converting to a paid contract.
