Deel is the strongest answer we know of to "employ someone in a country we have no entity in". It starts once you already know who you are hiring.
Companies employing and paying a distributed workforce across many countries — EOR, contractor payments, global payroll, benefits, devices and visas.
Deel describes itself as Global people platform — payroll, HR and compliance.
Hiring, employing, billing and offboarding on one record — built for teams who place people at clients as well as hiring their own.
From first contact to final payslip.
| Deel | EasyCruiter | |
|---|---|---|
| Employing across borders | Core product. Employer of record and global payroll across 150+ countries. | Not an EOR. We model the employment and its true cost; we are not the legal employer. |
| Recruiting pipeline before the hire | Deel Hire covers compliant hiring and onboarding, not a candidate pipeline. | Jobs, pipelines, a board, a candidate database, AI CV screening, talent pools and a careers site. |
| Placing someone at a client | Not among its listed product areas. | Placements, client proposals, a client portal, delivery tracking and NPS. |
| Client billing and commission | Not among its listed product areas. | Placement invoicing, commission calculation and gross margin per placement. |
| Cost-to-employ before you quote | Not among its listed product areas. | Model what a person actually costs to employ, then quote a rate you can defend. |
Everything in the Deel column describes what Deel lists on its own site, checked on 30 August 2026. Products change; if you spot something out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
You need to employ someone compliantly in a country where you have no legal entity. That is an employer-of-record problem, we are not an EOR, and Deel covers far more countries than we do. Plenty of teams run Deel for employment and EasyCruiter for everything either side of it.
If you place people at clients, the thing that hurts is not the pipeline — it is everything after it. Who is on which placement, what it bills, what margin it earns, what commission it owes, and whether the client is happy enough to renew. That is the part we built.
