Engaged and responsive account reps, customer involvement in betas and new feature launches, mision-driven B-corp that is working to enable global hiring.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

There can be some back and forth in countries where Oyster engages 3rd party EOR subcontractors vs. the markets where they have direct entities and can therefore get quicker responses to support questions

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have team members across 10+ countries and Oyster allows us a single platform and point of contact to compliantly employe and pay them despite all the complexities involved in local compliance.

"Great friendly service"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

Oyster are very helpful and responsive with any query raised. They share all stages of the onboarding process for visibilty and i trust our employees are in the best hands.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

There was a contract change which i submitted for an employee, which took a number of weeks to resolve, however the team kept regular communication and was resolved eventually.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

There was a slight issue with the platform when submitting a payroll change, but the support team looked into this immediately and resolved within a day. In the meantime, the team were able to submit the payroll change on my behalf.. which helped as payroll cut off was approaching. Very thankful for Oyster going out of their way to help.

"Utilizing Globalal Employment"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

Cross-country employment is a very cumbersome and time-consuming process that involves dealing with local tax, insurance, and legal regulations. Oyster eliminates this time-consuming and stressful process.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

The payment process was difficult because it was somewhat shorter than our payment term. No other problems in particular.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had an employee who was scheduled to work overseas become the employee of Oyster and work for our company because he could not be directly worked for various reasons.

"The platform is user-friendly and their customer support team is incredibly helpful"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

I've been using OysterHR to help with my company's HR needs for hiring people abroad, and I couldn't be happier with the service.

We were able to streamline our hiring processes and save a lot of time and resources. I highly recommend this platform for any company looking for an EOR solution.

After using OysterHR for a while, I can confidently say that I don't dislike anything about the platform.

"Very competent team; any issues handled quickly"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

I like that I feel I work with people who know what they're doing and have a sense of urgency. I am never left wondering what is going on. I do not have experience with competitors but at present I have no reason to look into them.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

The support received before becoming clients does not do justice to the quality they provide after onboarding. It is of course not cheap but more or less at the same level than competitors.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

I had to relocate to a Country where my employer did not have any presence; Oyster allowed me to continue doing my job and not having to deal with a lot of legal and tax complications.

"Good experience so far"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

I appreciate the reactivity of the support team as well as the clarity of the platform which is very intuitive. In general it is a positive experience with Oyster.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

Maybe the fact that I have to do things twice (for example when I ask a leave I need to do it on my company platform and Oster platform). And also the fact to fill up timesheet each month whereas my schedule is always the same.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows me to work for a foreign company but with French conditions/contract. It eases the recruitment which makes the international collaboration efficient and easy.

"Honest opinion from an user"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

I have used Oyster from an user perspective. So, my onboarding with my new organization has taken place via Oyster. It was very smooth. The details were very clear. Also, any queries were clarified at the earliest by the onboarding contact person. The option to sign any agreement documents using custom signature or having the inbuilt feature to signature was very efficient. Overall I loved the experience with Oyster.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

During my experience, I have not found any downsides of Oyster. My experience was very nice. So, unfortunately, I won't be able to provide any points for improvemnet at this time.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

I will be going to be employed by a customer company who does not have a legal entity in India, my native country. So, via Oyster that purpose to employ me has been fulfilled. Oyster has taken care of employment agreements with me, so via its platfrom I am going to be employed to the customer company.
