RemoFirst

RemoFirst is the right choice for cost-conscious startups hiring their first handful of international employees in standard markets. The $199 flat rate is unmatched — but teams scaling past 10–15 employees or hiring in complex markets will eventually hit the platform’s ceiling.

Pros

• Cheapest EOR in the market — $199/employee/month, 60–75% less than Deel or Remote
• Flat rate with no setup fees, no deposits, no annual contracts, no minimums

😕 Why users hate it?

• Operates entirely through local licensed partners — no owned entities anywhere
• Limited integrations — QuickBooks, Xero, and NetSuite connectivity is basic or unavailable
• Payroll reporting and analytics are significantly less deep than premium providers
• Platform is newer (founded 2021) with less track record than Deel or Remote
• Complex markets (Germany, Brazil, Japan) can expose platform limitations
• No self-serve contract customization
• Issues requiring local partner involvement resolve at partner speed, not platform speed
