My representative is extremely fast, the onboarding was efficient and fast, it is smooth, they are helpful, it facilitates employment I otherwise wouldnt be able to have Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

Some of the ways to issue holidays like maternity etc are a little complicated for me to understand, of course the fees are not that economical for a business especially if the consultant is on leave, but they make it possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A seamless bridge to global opportunities"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Oyster?

What I like best about Oyster is its intuitive and user-friendly interface. It makes managing contracts and payroll incredibly straightforward, which allows me to focus more on my work rather than administrative tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

The dashboard can feel a bit limited at times. I would love to see more detailed reporting features or more self-service options for updating personal documentation without needing to trigger a manual review every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable and Quick Payment Processing, But Watch for Fees"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Oyster?

I like that Oyster is reliable and quick, making it easy to use my money. It's been very easy; I get the money as soon as I get the email notification, like my invoice. It helps me because I know when I'm gonna get paid, and it's the one I use daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

I don't like that I'm discounted $15. When I get paid, there's, like, a deduction of $15 that the bank takes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cumbersome UX, but overall ok"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Oyster?

Paid on time and works overall. So as a Service nothing wrong with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

Accurate Timetracking is impossible: 10+ clicks to change start time and another 10+ clicks to change end time as well as crazy 2 factor timeout of max 8 hours. They seem to expect you to not track your time accurately.

Holiday calendar for Spain doesn't work unless setting Barcelona and Madrid. It should be able to take all Catalonian Public Holidays at least, but really it should have a comprehensive list of all holidays of major areas which are readily available online.

Expenses same thing, very unclear how to structure expense report and where to add which cost. If adding one consolidated report - requires double upload and no automatic categorization at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smooth international payments without the legal headache"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Oyster?

Oyster makes getting paid internationally straightforward and reliable.

It removes the usual friction around cross-border payments, contracts,

and compliance, so I don’t have to think about the legal side of things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

Payment timing can vary a bit depending on country/bank, so not always instant or fully predictable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient and organized"
5/5
What do you like best about Oyster?

I like how intuitive the platform is and everything is in one easy to access place. Support also quickly replies to any questions you have. It is nice to feel like you have a point person at Oyster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oyster?

Some of the benefits aren't explained with enough details. For example, a question that came up was if my start date is on the 1st of the month do my benefits start the first of that month or the following, and I got multiple different responses from different support people.
