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 self-service helps increase employee loyalty
The reporting could use some improvement. It doesn't shorten the data that it displays to the employee. At the moment you have to scroll through all of the results in order to find what you are looking for. Another improvement that should be implemented in the next release is the appraisal. For the appraisal model, we have to go to another solution because the one included is not supporting us in our needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice for others looking into using Deel is to consider it if you need to streamline payroll; it's really straightforward."
"Deel has positively impacted my organization by making it easier to find the best talent in the world, no matter where they may be."
"Deel has positively impacted my organization by saving us a lot of time when it comes to hiring people globally and keeping track of our employees."
"Deel has positively impacted our organization by reducing the time necessary for payroll processing from the moment of payroll inputs to payroll outputs, reducing human errors, and greatly helping us hire professionals in regions where we couldn't do so before."
"Once that was accomplished, the best thing is knowing that Deel is a great company that is always looking for ways to fix and solve problems and is always thinking about the client."
"Deel has had a positive impact on my organization by providing noticeable time savings in the ability to establish myself abroad by making the operation almost painless in terms of time invested."
"Everybody loves Deel. It is easier for us to track timesheets of our contractors, and I have been receiving a lot of positive feedback from the contractors that Deel is pretty easy to navigate and very user-friendly for them."
"Using Deel has really helped us save time."
"This solution increases the employees' loyalty to the organization since everything regarding their salary, health, insurance, etc. is there, and the employees can also check to see what activity is done on their files."
 

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."
"I find the on-demand payroll feature overly complicated."
"In some countries, the support response time is limited and takes longer to reply to our tickets."
"Deel is a very big system and sometimes it becomes a bit too big."
"For improvement with Deel, the focus is on the entity side, as we have experienced some delays regarding the entity setup, with the actual timeline being far from what they provided."
"During all these months, I have not been able to solve the issue of invoicing on time, since I have also done it in an outsourced way locally with Let's Deel Colombia."
"For reporting, I would say that is the only thing I think Deel can be improved at."
"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."
"The reporting could use some improvement."
