26 Oyster Testimonials

"The Oyster team presents us with a summary of the laws and the regulations in each country. We know exactly what the costs are of employing staff there, what the risks are, what the benefits are. It’s all done in a very concise and straightforward way that allows us to make decisions about staffing in these countries, trusting that we have a partner with the expertise to carry out the hiring and the employment of these staff."

"Before Oyster—we call it the Before Times—we were doing all of our international employee management manually. We were manually staying legally compliant and dealing with taxes in 40 different countries. It was a logistical nightmare. So when Oyster swooped in, it was a knight-in-shining-armor moment for us."

"Oyster has helped Neon to grow very rapidly because they provided us with a safe environment to hire people, bringing them on board very quickly. Plus, they make sure that we’re being compliant in all the locations where we hire, without the need to establish a subsidiary in those locations."

"Thanks to Oyster we have people selling our products around the world. As a result, our company grew 20-25% percent from 2022 to 2023. So that’s been amazing."

"Because of Oyster, we were able to continue growing our distributed team and building our company, even as the world was shutting down from the pandemic."

"Our hypergrowth was only possible because we had support from a vendor like Oyster that enabled us to onboard talent all over the world."

"We've used Oyster to hire and onboard employees in 10 different countries and we would not have been able to grow that quickly without Oyster."

"Oyster takes away the stress and complexity of setting up company entities, figuring out tax regulations and employment laws, and sourcing benefits providers when we operate in new territories. We don’t have to worry about any of that, which means we can dedicate our time, energy, and resources to building a great product for our customers."

“Before Oyster, we tried a few other EORs, including Deel and Omnipresent, but we didn’t have a great experience. With previous EOR solutions, we didn’t have clear guidance when hiring in new territories that were unfamiliar to us. We were left in the unknown. We weren’t guided through the process confidently, which affected the onboarding experience negatively for the team members joining us.”

"It can be quite daunting to try global hiring, but the team at Oyster takes that stress and anxiety away. They’re a team of experts you can rely on."

"Oyster helped us bridge the gap between wanting global talent, but not having entities in all the locations to hire them. If we do a cost analysis between the time and effort it takes to set up legal entities versus having the right talent to join your business through an organization that really understands what we’re trying to do—it’s totally worth the cost."

"Migrating from multiple EORs to Oyster was my first big task. The Oyster team helped me avoid all the pitfalls and hit all our timelines on getting everything switched over. And it was seamless for our employees. They never had to wait for a check or miss any reimbursements. It was very seamless and lovely, and I would do it again. I don’t think most people would say that they would migrate systems again, so that’s a true testament to how special Oyster is."

"When we switched to Oyster, a huge difference we noticed immediately is that every time we contacted our customer support manager or account manager, or just the regular customer support team, it was amazing. The quality of service, the speed of responses, as well as my ability to trust the response because it was backed up with data and information."

“We invest in people who change the way the world works. We’ve been leading the way in enabling the future of work by investing in leading SaaS companies. We believe that software can change the world and be used for good, and so does Oyster. Watch this space: we expect great things from Oyster.”

"One thing that stood out for me is the relationship I have with my Customer Success Manager. I know I can reach out if there’s any questions or any problems or whatever, and there’s someone who will help me right away."
