Is MyCo or Rippling better for a field-service team?
If most of your team works outside an office — crews, drivers, guards, technicians — MyCo fits better: it leads with GPS and consent-based mobile attendance, payroll-ready data, and scheduling. Rippling is stronger for office and remote teams that also need IT and device management.
Does MyCo do IT / device management like Rippling?
No. MyCo focuses on HR, attendance, payroll prep, scheduling, and CRM for deskless teams. If unifying HR with IT device and app management is a top requirement, Rippling is built for that.
Is MyCo cheaper than Rippling?
For most 30–200 person field-service SMBs, yes. MyCo publishes all-in pricing at $6–9 per employee, while Rippling's modular, quote-based pricing commonly totals $15,000–$30,000 per year once you add the modules you need.

MyCo prepares and calculates payroll-ready data across all 50 states and exports it to your payroll provider or accountant to file. Rippling files payroll directly. MyCo's model keeps your existing payroll relationship intact.
