Emerald Technology is a global Employer of Record and talent solutions provider helping companies hire, pay, and manage employees in countries where they don't have a legal entity. Rather than setting up local subsidiaries, businesses use Emerald as the legal employer for their international hires — Emerald handles payroll, benefits, tax compliance, and local labour law requirements, while the client company keeps full control over day-to-day management and direction of the employee's work. The platform supports hiring in over 160 countries and is built primarily for pre-IPO and private-equity-backed technology companies scaling internationally, though the service applies broadly to any business expanding its workforce across borders. Alongside core EOR services, Emerald offers global talent acquisition and payroll management, giving companies a single partner for sourcing, onboarding, and paying international employees. What differentiates Emerald is its emphasis on being a hands-on partner rather than a pure software platform — clients get dedicated support teams guiding them through the complexities of international employment law, plus tools like cost calculators for budgeting global hires. The company has operated in the global workforce space for over two decades. * * * Seller [Emerald Technology](https://www.g2.com/sellers/emerald-technology) Discussions [Emerald Technology Community](https://www.g2.com/products/emerald-technology/discuss) Languages Supported English Solution Type Best-of-Breed Overview by Cleo Coates Show More ## Pricing Pricing provided by Emerald Technology. ### Hire Full-Time Employees Starting at £499.00 1 Employee Per Month [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/emerald-technology/pricing) ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![G-P](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "G-P") G-P 4.4/5(1,052) ](https://www.g2.com/products/g-p/reviews) [ ![Rippling](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Rippling") Rippling 4.8/5(13,218) ](https://www.g2.com/products/rippling/reviews) [ ![Deel Hire](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Deel Hire") Deel Hire 4.8/5(6,045) ](https://www.g2.com/products/deel-hire/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/emerald-technology/competitors/alternatives) ## User Insights Average based on 92 real user reviews.

It’s a good option for recruiting, helping connect employees with the right company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Emerald Technology? The waiting time for any kind of help I request is too long and not very practical. There should be a better, more direct, and faster way to get in touch and request simple documents, such as certificates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Emerald Technology solving and how is that benefiting you? It’s the bridge between the company I work for and me, helping ensure I get paid on time and have a secure contract.

Senior Graphic Designer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/7/2026 "Supportive Team, but local Provider Issues" 2.5/5 What do you like best about Emerald Technology? Emerald team is always supportive, approachable, and friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Emerald Technology? I believe there are several areas that could be improved. In particular, I think you should work with better local providers. The provider in Colombia hasn’t been very reliable, and I’ve run into multiple issues, including mandatory medical exam fees, delays, and discrepancies in my salary.

They are pretty responsive to my inquiries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Emerald Technology? They're not always aligned with HUMAN on a lot of things. Especially in the beginning I had to do a lot of back and forth between the 2 companies to sort things out on budget and stipend policies. At some point I was asked to log my PTO requests with them first and they would update HUMAN, which I found odd, but also they never updated, so I just stopped doing it altogether. They don't even have a platform for that, I was asked to do it via email. In general. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Emerald Technology solving and how is that benefiting you? I can't be employed to HUMAN directly, because they don't have a legal entity in Greece.

It's great to hear that you are happy with Emerald Technology's responsiveness, this is something we pride ourselves on. We're disappointed to learn that you are not completely satisfied with the service. We apologies that in the beginning there was a misalignment. We value our relationship with Human Security as they are one of our top users for Employer of Record, and we are recognised as their preferred expansion partner. We appreciate your feedback on the PTO request process, at that time we did not have a Platform as we were a EOR service provider, and not a self-service platform provider like some of our competitors- which Human Security preferred. However, we have recently developed a Cloud Platform to assist us in our EOR offering, allowing us to offer a hybrid approach. We currently have integrations with BambooHR and Expensify. We take your feedback onboard and will use it to inform our future developments.
