Gründe für den Wechsel zu WorkMotion

Vorteile

As the director of a medium-sized digital marketing agency in Barcelona with clients in Germany, what I liked most about WorkMotion was their seamless handling of international employment. Their platform made it incredibly easy to onboard remote employees in Germany, navigating the complex legal and compliance requirements with ease. The customer support was exceptional, providing prompt assistance and clear guidance throughout the process.

Nachteile

What I liked least about WorkMotion was the limited integration options with our existing HR software. This sometimes led to duplicate data entry and a less streamlined workflow. Additionally, the pricing structure could be more flexible to better accommodate medium-sized businesses like ours.

Vorteile

What I appreciated most about WorkMotion is how intuitive and user-friendly the platform is. From the moment I started using it, navigating through various features and processes was seamless, even for someone without prior experience. Additionally, the support service has been exceptional—whenever I had a question or needed assistance, the response was consistently fast and helpful. This combination of an easy-to-use interface and reliable support really enhances the overall experience.

Nachteile

While WorkMotion provides a valuable service overall, one area for improvement is the level of expertise on specific tax matters. In certain cases, I felt that the platform lacked the in-depth knowledge required to address complex, country-specific tax regulations. This sometimes led to delays or confusion in handling international compliance issues.

Vorteile

The platform handles international hiring and compliance seamlessly, taking the complexity out of managing global employment by automating legal and administrative processes. This level of support significantly reduces the risk of legal issues and simplifies expansion into new markets. Its user-friendly interface and clear workflow also make managing payroll and employee status straightforward, saving HR teams a significant amount of time

Nachteile

What I liked least about WorkMotion is the response time of their customer support. While the platform itself is efficient, it can sometimes take longer than expected to get issues resolved when reaching out for help. Faster response times and more proactive support would make the overall experience much smoother.

Vorteile

I like using the WorkMotion platform because it is well-thought-out. It gives me a good overview of Time Off, Payslips, and Documents. Also, whenever I was in a new situation, WorkMotion replied promptly and helped me solve the issue.

Nachteile

I would appreciate if the platform could be more optimised from the usability perspective for mobile phones.

Vorteile

Having the opportunity to work with German company but being employed with Workmotion enabling me to work abroad in the sun.

Nachteile

Nothing at the moment. There were times when the platform wasn’t working well but that’s in the past. The platform now has become pretty user friendly and convenient.

Vorteile

Quick responses, very efficient, great way to work abroad

Nachteile

Nothing for now, all services have been to my best satisfaction

Vorteile

very accurate translation service and knowledgeable team.

Nachteile

To have better overview of the usage of the tool for our users. It’s important for us as well to check if they are active and we could identify who are those individuals.

Vorteile

I believe WorkMotion's concept of providing direct hiring options in other countries is great. It enables companies to hire international employees without relying on third-party providers ore even having their own entity. I appreciate the highly automated process for initial employment contracts and the streamlined, automated monthly payroll. This significantly reduces the workload for the HR operations team.

Nachteile

In the first months of the cooperation, support was very slow and hard to reach. This changed significantly after a few months, and therefore, I have nothing negative to mention.

Vorteile

Workmotion is very easy to use and for most countries you can provide instant contracts to employees globally.

Nachteile

N/a - it is very easy to use. The only issue I have heard of is that the timesheet platform can be quite frustrating for employees at times but I think they've updated this now.

Vorteile

how smooth and straightforward the whole process has been. From the onboarding to payroll, everything is well-organized and easy to navigate. They handle all the legal compliance for my country, including taxes and employment regulations—it’s all taken care of. Payments are always on time, and if I have any questions, the platform is user-friendly and quick to get answers.

Nachteile

the occasional delay in communication or support

Vorteile

Quick response times and professional service. The agents are polite and friendly, making the experience positive. Everything is handled online, providing fast and efficient solutions.

Nachteile

Each time you speak with a different agent. It would be better to have a dedicated 'point of contact'—one or two agents—to build a stronger relationship. Currently, it feels a bit impersonal, almost like talking to machines.

Vorteile

The most I like that all is done in time and quickly. Salary always was paid in time.
Support works very quickly and provides detailed answers.

Nachteile

Maybe, only one. That they do not provide help with the calculation of Grosі salary. But probably it because that the gross salary in each country depends on many factors

Vorteile

I've been with Workmotion for a year now and they've made remote work possible for me. They're always there to help and take their responsibilities seriously. I suggest checking them out.

Nachteile

I would say I have no major complaints.

Vorteile

WorkMotion have excellent process for onboarding new employees. Their App is easy to use and have all important features accessible easily.

Nachteile

I have no cons, so no bad experiences or negative things to say

Vorteile

It is a user-friendly digital platform for submitting my onboarding documentations. And when I raised a ticket for a support; it solved very quickly in few hours! Thank you.

Nachteile

not experienced any cons yet. Thanks for your support.

Vorteile

The platform simplifies onboarding, payroll, and compliance across different countries, saving time and effort. The user-friendly dashboard and responsive customer support are also great.

Nachteile

What I liked least about WorkMotion is that communication can be challenging due to the involvement of multiple stakeholders. Coordinating between WorkMotion and my employer of record sometimes slows down the process, making it harder to get quick updates or resolve issues efficiently.

Vorteile

I’ve been using Workmotion since June 2023, and I’m very pleased with the experience so far. The platform is easy to use and has simplified the management of my international team. One of the most impressive features is the automatic handling of payroll and taxes, which saves a lot of time and effort.

The claim process is also seamless and efficient, showing that Workmotion has designed their services with user convenience in mind. Their support for visa documentation is exceptional as well. On top of that, their customer support team is always responsive and helpful, quickly addressing any questions or issues that come up.

Nachteile

While Workmotion's support team is responsive and helpful, I would appreciate the option for more direct communication. Currently, support is handled through ticket replies and emails, which can make it challenging to address more complex issues. Being able to speak directly with a support representative via phone or video call would make the support process more personal and effective.

Vorteile

WorkMotion allows companies to hire employees from over 150 countries without the need to establish a local entity. This expansive reach makes it easier to tap into global talent pools, especially in emerging markets.

Navigating the legalities of hiring in different countries can be daunting. WorkMotion excels in ensuring compliance with local labor laws, tax regulations, and employment contracts, reducing the risk of costly legal complications.

Nachteile

While the pricing is transparent, it might be on the higher side for smaller companies or startups with tight budgets. However, the value provided often justifies the cost, especially for companies with complex international hiring needs.

The pay dates cannot be adjusted to company standards.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu WorkMotion

Vorteile

I got a job at a company without a legal entity in my country. Workmotion stepped in as Employer of Records, and thus facilitates my employment from a legal standpoint. We signed the contract through docusign and the entire process was seamless. I had some change requests to the contract and WorkMotion was happy to approve those. Their customer support is on point and ready to help.

Due to legislation in my country, I will not be able to be leased to my de-facto employer for longer than 3 years. Thus, as of right now, Workmotion is only a short term solution.

The platform, the support team, smooth processes

Everything works just fine, the only cons that I find is to have to access different websites and platforms when I need a support. It would be super nice if the helpdesk was in the same place of the main platform.

Vorteile

- It helps us hire people abroad and therefore being more flexible when it comes to recruiting.
- Improves the retaining-rate, as we can offer more employment-options.
- Customer service experience is really good.

Nachteile

- Still needs some adjustment when it comes to invoices e.g.
- Also a lot of research needs to be done by our team before a hire- More service would be helpful there.
- Countrypedia (explanation of the working conditions in a country) is not available for candidates which would be super beneficial.
- Depending on the country time-tracking and vacation tracking can be exhausting.

Vorteile

Been using WorkMotion for almost two years as an employee in Spain. The platform became very useful during this time and always improving. The customer service is always super fast (email only).

At first glance, it might not be that easy to identify all the features and utilities that the software has to offer. But this is where customer service comes in handy to provide guidance and workarounds if necessary.

Vorteile

I like the most the availability of their support team. Amazing!

Nothing that I like least about Workmotion

Vorteile

What I liked least about WorkMotion the occasional delays in response times.

Vorteile

As an employee hired through WorkMotion, I'm really happy with the fast support in the country that I'm working. They're able to answer many questions, and have made my remote work from Spain super easy and stress-free.

Nachteile

The only annoying thing is sometimes having to do duplicate communication between WorkMotion and my main employer for sick days, holidays, etc.

Vorteile

Open to talk, listening employees and their needs

Nachteile

Some back and forth to align payslip with the actual schedule and the local law compliance

Vorteile

It's easy to used and access on mobile and phone and navigation is easy to find even when you haven't used it before

Nachteile

It's minor but having to log in each time is a pain but it's the most minor thing in the world

Vorteile

The CS team is always super fast and helpful and very friendly. Also, the sign up for a talent is super fast and easy as well, I really love it, very self-explanatory.

The invoices are often incorrect or difficult to understand.

Vorteile

My experience with WorkMotion has been great. The support team stands out for being quick and helpful in answering my questions. I really appreciate their clear communication and fast replies. The platform is also easy to use.

Nachteile

Overall, everything works fine, but there are a couple of downsides. It’s a bit inconvenient to use different websites and platforms for support. Also, my performance bonus was delayed by three months, and reimbursements can take some time.

Vorteile

Super easy access to employee data, including payslips. Top-notch Customer Support: they promptly respond to my queries.

Nachteile

I'd sometimes appreciate that the payslips were updated more timely and I'd like to get warnings about expected changes in my salary for reasons unrelated to my employer (e.g., when tax regulations change)

Vorteile

What I appreciate most about WorkMotion is the ease and efficiency of their onboarding process. From day one, everything was clearly communicated, and any questions I had were promptly addressed by the team. The level of support is truly exceptional, and they’ve created a smooth and welcoming experience that makes you feel valued as part of their talent community.

Nachteile

So far, I did not have any problems with WorkMotion.
