G2 Review
The platform has significant complexity for smaller companies and the premium pricing tier makes it difficult for startups to afford. The limited customization in UI is frustrating when trying to adapt to our specific needs.

G2 Review
Real-time payroll tracking sounds good in theory, but the platform becomes overwhelming for our team. The high learning curve makes onboarding new HR staff a constant challenge.
Rivermate provides intuitive, easy-to-use platform with comprehensive onboarding support.

Capterra Review
The cost keeps increasing as we scale. What seemed like a good deal initially has become one of our most expensive vendors. Hidden fees and premium features add up quickly.

Playroll charges a hefty fee compared to other payment platforms. They can not provide tax guidance to remote contractors working with external companies.
Rivermate offers global expansion at a budget friendly price.
What do you dislike about this service?

I really didn't like the fact that I will be paid to my Playroll account, and then I need to transfer to my bank account because that's another 2-3 business days. This was very annoying.
Rivermate offers consistent, timely payment.
