"Everything looks good so far, and I haven’t run into any issues."

5/5

What do you like best about Safeguard Global?

Effectively managed our deployments in Australia without any issues and consistently provided prompt support whenever needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Safeguard Global?

Currently, communication with the Safeguard team happens through a standard group email ID, which often results in delayed responses. Since clients typically require timely updates and do not have the luxury of waiting long for critical information, it would be beneficial to introduce a more efficient communication mechanism.

Proposed Improvements:

Direct Communication Platform

Create a dedicated platform or support portal where clients can directly interact with Safeguard representatives—similar to live chat, ticketing tools, or assigned account managers. This would significantly reduce response times and improve overall efficiency.

Swift Query Resolution Mechanism

Establish a system that ensures client queries are responded to promptly, with defined SLAs and clear ownership.

Central Repository of Country-Specific Information

Build a comprehensive, easily accessible repository containing detailed information about all countries covered under the EOR model, including:

Specific statutory requirements

Onboarding timelines

Cost structures

Compliance checklists

Country-level employment guidelines

This would help clients quickly locate relevant information without having to wait for support responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you Somer for your kind words about our team and the support you have received! We agree whole-heartedly that the relationships / "human" element of HR support is incredibly important to balance with technology. We are actively working to enhance our platform and launching new functionality as we speak - goal being to provide a more integrated and feature-rich experience. Thank you again for value your feedback and look forward to continuing our partnership.

"Safeguard is a great"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Safeguard Global?

Our org is new to Safeguard so I can only speak to the assessment and onboarding process. Both were amazing... our account manager is thorough and knowledgable, while our onboarding lead kept us on task and educated us throughout the project. She also made us feel comfortable and confident in putting our employees in Safeguard's hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Safeguard Global?

It's very early for us, so I don't have anything to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great account representatives and support"

4/5

What do you like best about Safeguard Global?

The dedicated account representatives/managers are fantastic. They truly care about making the experience positive for the clients and employees. The update to the payroll application platform has been great. Working with the recruiters for our global job openings has been successful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Safeguard Global?

The local HR reps are not often available during US business hours and this causes frequent delays in getting things completed/answers to questions. It would be nice for the client to have a direct line in to the HR reps in country or at least a monthly/quarterly check in/touch base because it feels very disconnected.

"David is really helpful and ensures a smooth service for us."

5/5

What do you like best about Safeguard Global?

The technology/platform. Its good to have oversight of our people overseas and the cost all in one place. Safeguard has the most advanced platform we have seen for this service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Safeguard Global?

The payroll service was not as organised or accessible as EOR. This has now resolved itself by being sold to Deel. The account manager could promote the services more - I have fed this back and the last quarterly review was much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kelly VanRavenswaay of Safeguard Global

Thank you Juliet for your positive feedback about David and our technology platform! We understand your concerns about how our payroll service used to operate and glad those have been resolved with the divestiture of our Enterprise Payroll division to Deel. We are continuously working to enhance our services and really appreciate your input.
