Rivermate Reviews, Ratings & Features 2026 | Gartner Peer Insights

Employer of Record (EOR) solution allows companies to hire, onboard, and manage employees in multiple countries without having to establish a local entity. It manages all payroll-related tasks and compliance but leaves the supervision and work assignment to the sponsor organization. It also handles all the legal and admin tasks associated with being an employer, like paying salaries, withholding taxes, managing benefits and processing onboarding. Apart from helping companies avoid the hassle of setting up a local entity, this arrangement helps in reducing legal risks and is also cost effective as the fee paid to EOR may be lower than the costs of fully employing contractors directly. It is widely used by medium and large enterprises looking to expand into new markets. EOR differs from Professional Employer Organization (PEO) in the sense that a PEO acts as a co-employer, while an EOR is the legal employer of an organization’s distributed workforce.

The functionality I need (being payroll checks, requesting leave and adding expenses) has been mostly smooth and always works as intended. My initial setup was smooth, and my contact was always quick to answer questions.

Director of Sales

I am overall satisfied with the services offered by Rivermate. However, compared to the contrat I received from my previous two payroll companies, the health insurance and contractual obligations are less favourable. The coverage is much lower and they didn't recognise the time I've worked with my employer before my contract started with them. On the other hand, I really like the Retirement Savings plan offered by them in partnership. 

Engineer

My overall experience with Rivermate has been very positive. The onboarding was smooth, communication has always been clear and any questions I had were addressed quickly. The platform is easy to use and the support team is consistently reliable.
