## Praisidio vs. common alternatives

### vs. built-in HR reporting
Built-in reporting is locked inside a single system and can't combine data across tools. Praisidio unifies data from multiple systems and delivers reports automatically.

### vs. spreadsheets and manual work
Manual reporting is slow, fragile, and repeated every cycle. Praisidio automates the same reports and delivers them on a recurring schedule.

### vs. general BI tools
General BI tools are powerful but not built for HR. Teams must model data and build everything themselves. Praisidio ships with an HR data model and does the work out of the box.

### vs. in-house / custom builds
Custom builds are resource-intensive and costly to maintain. Praisidio is a maintained platform that is live in days.

- [Dependent Eligibility and the Carrier Invoice](https://www.praisidio.com/benefits-reconciliation/dependent-eligibility/): Dependents are billed but rarely reconciled. Age-outs, divorces and step-children that were never removed sit on invoices for years - and you usually can't take the coverage back.
