# Byoxon vs. Replicon: Compliance-Grade Time Tracking vs. One PSA Subscription

*This article compares Byoxon (BoB) and Deltek Replicon for professional services firms. It covers what Replicon ships as of September 2026, why Deltek no longer publishes a Replicon price list, and where Replicon's compliance depth is worth buying over one broader PSA subscription. Every figure was checked against each vendor's own pages on 19 September 2026.*

- Deltek completed its acquisition of Replicon on 22 August 2023. Replicon now sells as a Deltek product line, and its marketing pages live on deltek.com.
- Deltek publishes no Replicon rate card. The former replicon.com pricing page redirects to Deltek, which offers "Request a Quote" instead. Byoxon publishes $34.95 down to $24.95 per user per month, plus a free plan for up to 5 users.
- Replicon ships DCAA-ready time entry, FedRAMP Moderate Authorization and labour compliance across 145+ jurisdictions in 75+ countries. It does not ship a CRM, a native invoicing engine, or HR beyond leave.
- Byoxon includes CRM, time tracking, invoicing, HR and real-time project P&L in one subscription. Replicon integrates with your existing ERP, HCM and payroll rather than replacing them.

## Where Replicon is the better choice

For several kinds of firm, Replicon solves a problem Byoxon was never built to solve. No amount of packaging closes that gap.

- **You bill the US federal government.** Deltek markets DCAA-ready time entry by name. If a DCAA audit can reach your timesheets, buy the platform designed for that audit.
- **Your buyer requires FedRAMP.** Replicon holds FedRAMP Moderate Authorization. Byoxon markets no equivalent authorisation, so a contract demanding one rules Byoxon out at procurement.
- **You employ people across many jurisdictions.** Deltek states Replicon covers labour compliance in 145+ jurisdictions across 75+ countries. For a distributed, hourly or unionised workforce, that depth is the product.
- **You already run Deltek.** If your ERP or project accounting is a Deltek product, Replicon extends a vendor relationship you already manage.
- **Your only gap is time.** If your CRM, billing system and HR software already work, buying a fifth system to replace all four is the wrong trade.

## One subscription instead of a time system plus everything else

Replicon answers "how many compliant hours did we log." Byoxon answers "what did this project make," and hours are one input among several that produce that number.

### What Deltek's own pages describe

Deltek's Replicon page lists four modules: TimeBill for billable project time, Workforce Management for attendance and scheduling, expense tracking, and global leave management. Intelligent timesheets pull time signals from more than 100 work apps, so the timesheet arrives pre-populated rather than blank.

What those pages do not describe is a CRM, a native invoicing engine, or HR beyond leave. Deltek is explicit: Replicon integrates with your existing ERP, HCM, payroll and project management systems rather than replacing them. That is a deliberate design, and it is part of why Replicon can go as deep as it does on compliance.

It becomes a cost only if you do not already own the rest. Then you buy, configure and keep synchronised a CRM, a billing system and HR software on top of the Replicon licence, and someone has to own each sync.

### What one Byoxon subscription covers

BeOnBoard keeps those records pointing at each other by default. A deal in the CRM becomes a project. Hours logged against that project carry a cost rate and a bill rate from the person record. Those hours become an invoice, and the invoice minus cost becomes the project P&L. HR profiles, PTO and recruitment sit in the same database. No second login, no nightly sync job, no reconciliation step.

The trade runs both ways. You give up Replicon's compliance certifications and its labour-law depth. In exchange you stop running a separate CRM, billing tool and HR system beside your time tracker.

## Pricing compared

Deltek publishes no Replicon price list. The old replicon.com/pricing page now returns a permanent redirect to Deltek's product page, which offers "Request a Demo" and "Request a Quote" in place of a rate card. There is no published tier list, no per-user figure and no stated minimum.

Third-party listings do quote numbers. Review sites list a Replicon time and attendance plan from about $6 per user per month, and list the Deltek Polaris PSA line at roughly $29 per user per month, or $49 with its ZeroTime capture. Those are resellers' and review sites' estimates, not Deltek figures, and they disagree with each other. Your real number comes from a quote.

Byoxon publishes one volume rate card:

| Team size | Price per user per month |
| --- | --- |
| 1-10 users | $34.95 |
| 11-49 users | $32.95 |
| 50-199 users | $29.95 |
| 200+ users | $24.95 |

Every tier carries the full feature set. A free plan covers up to 5 users with no feature limitations and no credit card.

The practical difference is what each price has to cover. A Replicon quote buys time capture and workforce compliance; a CRM, an invoicing system and HR software still need separate budget lines if you do not already own them. A Byoxon subscription buys the whole operating record.

## Which one fits your team

**Choose Replicon** if you bill the US federal government, need DCAA-ready time entry or FedRAMP Moderate Authorization, or run multi-country labour compliance, and you already own the rest of your operating stack.

**Choose Byoxon** if you want the CRM, time tracking, invoicing, HR and project margin in one subscription at a published price, and no contract obliges you to hold a compliance certification.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Replicon the same company as Deltek?

Not any more. Deltek announced the acquisition in May 2023 and completed it on 22 August 2023. Replicon now sells as a product line inside the Deltek portfolio.

### How much does Replicon cost?

Deltek does not publish a Replicon price. Its product pages direct prospects to request a quote. Figures on review sites, such as $6 per user per month for time and attendance, come from third parties and disagree with each other. Byoxon publishes its rates: $34.95 per user per month for 1-10 users, falling to $24.95 at 200 or more, with a free plan for up to 5 users.

### Does Replicon include a CRM or invoicing?

No. Deltek's Replicon pages describe time and billing, workforce management, expense tracking and global leave management, and state that Replicon integrates with existing ERP, HCM and payroll systems. Byoxon includes a CRM with deal progress tracking, plus client and contractor invoicing, in the same subscription as its time and P&L modules.

### Is Replicon good for government contractors?

Yes, and that is one of its stated strengths. Deltek markets DCAA-ready time entry and FedRAMP Moderate Authorization, both directly relevant to firms billing US federal agencies. Byoxon markets no equivalent certification.

### When is Byoxon the better choice than Replicon?

When you want one system of record rather than the best time tracker. Byoxon fits teams that want the CRM, time tracking, invoicing, HR and project profit and loss in one subscription at a published price, and that face no DCAA, FedRAMP or multi-country labour-compliance requirement.
