Detailed Review

Zenegy Danmark ApS in Hørsholm builds payroll around one idea: once the numbers are right, the reporting should not be manual work.

Salary, tax, pension, ATP and holiday pay are calculated and paid out, and the results go straight to eIndkomst and SKAT without a separate submission step; a zero-report goes out automatically in months with nobody to pay. Pricing follows the same logic — DKK 100 a month plus DKK 27 per payslip, no per-employee minimum, unlimited users included — which makes it easy to start small and cheap and let the cost grow with headcount rather than a sales tier.

It is a Danish product for Danish payroll, full stop, and the company itself is young and small next to DATEV or Sage: founded in 2016, with payroll as one module alongside its own accounting and expense tools rather than a category leader with decades behind it.

That combination — modern, automated, not yet proven at large scale — is exactly what it looks like, and worth weighing for a system a regulator will fine you over if a filing goes wrong. Outside Denmark, look elsewhere entirely.

What Zenegy does well

  • Automatic reporting to SKAT via eIndkomst, not a manual export
  • Per-payslip pricing with no employee minimum
  • Payroll, accounting and expenses in one Danish platform
  • Automatic zero-reporting when nobody is paid that month
  • Unlimited users included in the base subscription

Where Zenegy falls short

  • Denmark only
  • Small, young vendor next to the established names here
  • No published free trial for the payroll product specifically
  • Fewer HR features than the larger suites in this category

Standout feature. Payroll that files itself: the eIndkomst report is a side effect of running payroll correctly, not a separate task.
