Head of People&Culture at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
Unified HR platform has streamlined global hiring, reduced onboarding work, and improved reviews
There are some minor things that I am looking forward to seeing improved in Deel, such as employment types. For example, I hire a lot of interns and there isn't a specific employment type for intern. There are employment types for direct employee, contractor and similar, but nothing for interns. There is a way to work around it by saying an intern is actually a direct employee and then implementing a custom field, but it would be really good if there was a general field to recognize interns as a part of the workforce. That is something that comes to mind. I think there are still some things that Deel will improve over time and then I will be happy to give it a 10 out of 10. Given the fact that it is still a fairly new HRIS system, there are minor improvements that can be made from that perspective of purely admin work, for example, correcting data in the fields once you import them when changing a salary. If I input one salary incorrectly, I need to import another line. I cannot just correct the previous field, which some of the other HRIS systems allow. This way, on one hand I have full tracking of all the logs so I am not missing if someone corrected something or did any changes, but on the other hand, it also remains visible in the logs. Even if it is a small human error, there is no way to make it very well structured and polished when I am drawing, for example, a historical report of all the salary changes. Such things are minor improvements that I believe would come over time. Once those are implemented, it would be a 10 out of 10.

The features of Moveworks that I have not fully explored include some features I would actually like. Fully automating the passing of entries and automating entries generation would be valuable. For example, if I have a finance staff that is continuously passing an entry for me, I want a situation whereby it can pass that entry automatically and post it based on the synchronization and command which I have configured. I believe some other bot applications are doing something similar. If all these work tools can be put together to automate this kind of process, it will be very great. Major things I would want Moveworks to do more of - I do not know whether this functionality is already there - I want it to perform the work of bots so I can quickly automate some other applications to it, such as passing some entries. That is one request. Secondly, regarding the integrations of bots of Moveworks with other applications, I would appreciate if there were a step-by-step process for all standardized applications such as WhatsApp, Outlook, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Teams, and some TeamViewer and other applications that are work tools. The step-by-step synchronization and integrations of these things, if it can be posted on the website, would make it much easier for people who want to do the synchronization instead of doing a lot of research before it gets done.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I am very happy with Deel and where they are going."
"Deel has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to access talent that we otherwise would not be able to hire because we don't have entities in all those countries."
"Whenever we need something or assistance, Deel is there, making our lives easier."
"Deel has positively impacted my organization as it is very important for us to work with Deel because we are still too small to open an entity in the United States, making it an amazing option to continue working with our United States employees."
"Now that we have everything automatically in Deel, we save a lot of time, and we can have someone ready to work with us in about a day."
"After using Deel, I can manage different payouts across different countries instantly, saving a lot of time, reducing headaches, and minimizing the efforts of human resources."
"Deel has positively impacted my organization by making it easy for me to run payroll and manage EOR employees."
"I highly recommend Deel as a tool; the tool itself is great, it is easy to use, and on top of that, you get an excellent team of highly qualified people who will support you throughout the entire process."
"Moveworks has reduced employee time because initially, employees used to spend so much time going to the third party to do all those jobs, and now they can simply do it via Otter, which is Moveworks, and this has saved much time and provided accurate results as well."
"Moveworks has reduced many tasks from us, saving an average of one to two hours per day because emails that used to take ten to fifteen minutes to compose are now getting done within two minutes, sometimes even when I am not there."
"Moveworks has positively impacted our organization by lowering ServiceNow service desk calls by 90%, as users now prefer to ask questions through Moveworks in Teams before calling for help."
"The solution saves us approximately three-quarters of a million dollars per year."
 

Cons

"We have encountered a couple of issues when it comes to navigating parental leave and pay or off-boarding and severance payments, which is where we have had our biggest issues."
"Deel updates their design and website quite frequently, which I understand is for the sake of improving user experience, but sometimes it is really hard to find something you have been looking for."
"I think Deel can be improved as it is a bit costly."
"There are a few things in the system that could be improved."
"There are some minor things that I am looking forward to seeing improved in Deel, such as employment types."
"Pay attention to and review the service catalog since some services may come at an additional price."
"The feature does exist, but for us it is quite expensive compared to doing it ourselves."
"Deel can be improved by making adjustments to contract styles, especially regarding incentives or bonuses, which can be a little tricky, as their legal team sometimes takes their time and doesn't show consistency in what they allow and what they don't, but these are relatively minor issues."
"Customer support has been adequate; I would rate it around seven out of ten, as support often forwards cases to developers after collecting details."
"More use cases can be added to the agent marketplace and the YAML or the DSL methods can be simplified, adding more methods to make it easier for us to create compound actions."
"There is always room for improvement, though it depends on how complicated one wants to make it."
"It is still not perfect enough, but we are working on it to make sure it is very perfect."
