Frequently Asked Questions
? Is Admidio hard to install?
Admidio offers two options: Docker (easy, pre-configured containers for quick setup) or manual LAMP stack installation (needs basic server skills). Docker is recommended for users without deep technical expertise.
? Is it a good alternative to BambooHR?
Yes, for clubs/associations or small orgs needing free, self-hosted HR tools. BambooHR has more enterprise features (payroll, advanced reporting), but Admidio is ideal for member management and event-focused HR tasks without costs.
? Is it completely free?
Absolutely! Admidio is open-source (GPLv2 license) with no license fees, hidden charges, or subscription plans. You only pay for hosting if you choose to self-host.
