How we compare
Last updated September 2026
We don't publish scores
We don't give platforms an overall score or rating. A single number implies more precision than public information supports, and these products aren't all in the same category.
Instead we describe what each platform offers according to its own published information, show its published pricing, and indicate the kind of company it may suit. The right choice depends on your situation.
What we check
We look at the same points for every platform, using its published information:
- Employer of Record and contractor management — offered directly, via partner, or not at all
- Country coverage, and whether payroll runs through owned entities or partners
- US domestic payroll and tax filing
- Core HR, device and app management, and performance tools
- Whether pricing is published
Where a provider doesn't appear to offer something, based on its published information, we mark it not offered. That reflects the type of product, not a judgement of quality.
Where our data comes from
Pricing and coverage figures come from each provider's own public pricing and product pages. Strengths and limitations are our editorial summary of that public information. We have not independently tested every product, and we don't claim to.
Vendors change prices without notice, and quoted rates often differ from list price by country, headcount and contract length. Always confirm current pricing directly with the vendor before deciding. If you spot something out of date, tell us and we'll correct it.
