RemotePeople, a global provider of Employer of Record (EOR), payroll and recruitment services operating in more than 150 countries, has been named “Best for Easy Employee Onboarding and Self-Service” in G2's “6 Best EOR Software for 2027” editorial roundup. The roundup was published October 30, 2026 on learn.g2.com.

The distinction comes with G2 data showing a 4.7 out of 5 user rating, 95% ease-of-setup and 95% ease-of-use from verified reviewers.

What the citation highlights

According to the announcement, the citation reflects what RemotePeople users say the platform does best:

  • A well-organized, step-by-step onboarding flow with clear instructions and a quick initial setup for new employees
  • Digital contract signing and approval
  • A self-service experience that lets employees handle expenses, leave and payslips themselves

The company framed these as the moments that decide whether a new hire's first week in a new country feels smooth or chaotic.

The G2 data

  • 4.7 / 5 overall G2 user rating
  • 95% ease of setup
  • 95% ease of use
  • 49% small business plus 41% mid-market reviewer mix, described as evidence of broad applicability across company sizes
"I like how RemotePeople is simple and user-friendly, especially when it comes to logging expenses. The initial setup was easy for me, which added to the overall positive experience."

— Shannon D., verified G2 reviewer, as cited in the G2 article.

A shortlist built on verified reviews

The G2 roundup was built by senior content writer Shreesh Singh from AI-assisted analysis of 15+ EOR platforms across the G2 EOR category, the G2 Grid Report and verified user reviews, then cross-referenced against practitioner feedback from professionals managing global teams. The methodology is described as explicitly review-driven rather than sponsor-driven.

RemotePeople appears on the shortlist alongside Deel, Remote, Rippling, Multiplier and G-P. The company described those as the category's largest and best-funded names, and said the shortlist was decided by what verified customers said about the products in use.

According to the announcement, the timing matters because the G2 editorial roundup lands as enterprise HR, finance and procurement teams finalize vendor evaluations for 2027 global-hiring programs, when review-driven shortlists carry disproportionate weight in the buying cycle.

Part of a 2026 recognition run

The G2 shortlist adds to RemotePeople's 2026 third-party recognition, according to the company:

  • Best Employer of Record platform in the G2 Summer 2026 reports, with 80+ G2 badges
  • #1 in the 2026 best-EOR guides from People Managing People, SelectSoftwareReviews and Outsource Accelerator
  • Highest-rated EOR on Glassdoor at 4.8/5, with a 94% recommend-to-a-friend score from employees
  • SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and GDPR certified; A+ platform security rating from Astra Security
"Global hiring only works if a new hire in a country we may never have operated in before can be set up in minutes and run their own expenses, leave, and payslips from day one. That is the bar we built the product against. A 95% ease-of-setup score from verified G2 users says we're meeting it."

— Antoine Boquen, CEO and Co-Founder of RemotePeople
