Connecteam is a polished US-built deskless-workforce app. UK businesses run into rough edges quickly: USD billing, US-style employment rules, no UK employment-law AI, and the free tier caps at 10 users. Work-Lynx is the same deskless-workforce pattern, UK-native, GBP-priced, with 49 UK policies and ACAS/TUPE/SSP-aware AI built in.

When Connecteam fits
  • ·You're a US-headquartered business with UK ops on a single platform
  • ·You need their specific deskless-comms / chat features
  • ·You have heavy multi-country requirements (US + UK + AU)
  • ·You're sticking with their UX out of inertia
Why Work-Lynx beats it
  • UK-native: GBP pricing, UK employment-law AI advisor, UK policy library
  • No 10-user free ceiling — solo gets the full base tier free, scales £1/employee from there
  • Employ AI knows ACAS, TUPE, SSP, statutory notice periods, working-time regs — Connecteam doesn't
  • 49 UK policies preloaded — handbook, GDPR, modern slavery, working from home, the lot
  • Linear pricing without hub-based feature tiers

Switching from Connecteam

Connecteam exports users as CSV. Work-Lynx imports it — names, roles, contacts, start dates. Document store moves via direct upload. Connecteam chat history doesn't carry over (different product shape) — most teams just start fresh on their preferred chat tool (WhatsApp/Slack/Teams) and run HR through Work-Lynx.

HR built for the team you actually have.

Work-Lynx is £2.50 base + £1 per employee per month. 49 UK policies preloaded. Employ AI included. GPS clock-in, rotas, leave, training matrix, payslips. No sales call. Cancel any time.
