Although Oyster outranks many rivals, Remote is widely regarded as the leading global employment platform on G2 — consistently scoring higher than competitors for customer satisfaction.
Creating effective contractor relationships involves more than punctual payments. Oyster's contractor management mainly handles payments and lacks features like time and attendance tracking, clock-in/out, invoice scheduling, or locally compliant contract generation.
With Remote you can manage the full contractor lifecycle from first contact to project completion; automated onboarding simplifies induction and built-in compliance measures reduce misclassification risk. Also, you will never be charged for inactive contractors.
Work with contractors in 200+ countries and territories
Bring contractors up to speed quickly with automated onboarding
Create, edit, and sign tailored, localised contracts
Approve invoices instantly with one click or auto-pay
