Deel, Inc
Deel has been incredible at streamlining the platforms we used into one while still supporting employees across several countries and contract types. If you're a multi-country team, this is a great option to run just basic HRIS items, but has the potential to be as integrated and detailed as you want - and they are still building!

Horizons is great when you need to utilize voice on the VM. Horizons is also great when you need to utilize peripherals like a physical machine. Overall, Horizons is a pretty good solution when it functions properly. The constant disconnections from the agent get extremely annoying. It seems like the best way to resolve the issue is to restart the VM in vCenter. This wouldn't be an issue for a small team, but if you're running 100+ VMs and this is happening every day to so many machines, it gets irritating that you can't be more productive elsewhere because you have to resolve the agent issue by restarting the VM before you can work on more important tasks or projects.

Rippling does its best with employee management and provisions. It's very slick with getting your new hires up and running, including I-9, W4, W9, all hiring paperwork. They offer expense management and reimbursements as an add-on bundle, but you have to have their Rippling credit cards so it's not very flexible for us.

Cons
Deel, Inc
  • I didn't like that you can no longer manage your teams with Deel IT without a paid service. You could before, and it was an excellent option! I don't know why they removed it. (No me gustó que ahora no podas gestionar tus equipos con deel IT sin tener el servicio pago. Antes si se podía y era una excelente opción! No sé por qué lo quitaron).
  • That at the time of reviewing invoices for payment at the end of the month, they are sorted alphabetically and that the "search" filter works correctly.
  • (Que al momento de la revisión de invoices para pago a fin de mes, éstos estén ordenados alfabéticamente y que el filtro "buscar" funcione correctamente).
  • There's a pop-up that keeps appearing on the platform: "new version available, update" it's really annoying. (Hay un pop up que aparece constantemente en la plataforma: "new version available, update" la verdad es muy molesto).

  • Disconnection from Horizons Agent randomly which forces the VM to need to be restarted before Horizons can administer it again and end users can login.
  • Speed when being utilized by end users compared to Microsoft RDP. Horizons is noticeably slower compared to Microsoft RDP.
  • Failover functionality when VMs disconnect from agent.

  • Rippling could improve their payment days. Currently they make employee payments around the 15th and 30th of the month, but it varies slightly with every month. It would make more sense to do this payment on every other Friday or every other Monday.

The system does everything you would want it to. There are times when it is clunky, and navigation and responsiveness could be improved, but the Deel team listens to feedback and aims to implement solutions whenever they can. It is constantly improving and has become a much better system than when we first started utilizing it. We see it only improving in the future, too.

They have been quite responsive to questions and clarifying settings, approaches, listening to feedback. Their knowledge base and training seem well-established and user-focused. Really like their offerings in Rippling U to help orient admins on features, functionality, and best practices. The IT implementation specialist was kind, efficient, and walked us through each screen, explaining different scenarios as we got things configured. They followed up after each call with action items, recommendations, and made themselves available between working sessions. The whole process felt very productive.

It's really easy to implement in comparison to other tools or applications. Different key points are easily configured and implemented as per need, having different configurations in systems. Implementation is something which binds the different parameters of an organization in a single row. Implementation of rippling is much easier, quicker, and error free than any other software.

Rippling far outshines Employment Hero from an LMS perspective; the EH LMS is really bad and has very little functionality, as well as being completely user-unfriendly.
