Research-based score
4.3
Tested
Features and capabilities4.6

Remote documents Global Payroll, EOR, contractor services and a US PEO in one platform, with country-specific compliance and unified HR workflows; contracts, entities and service scope differ by product.

Usability and implementation4.1

A review of ten visible 2026 G2 submissions found favorable remarks on onboarding, payslips and support, alongside reports of unintuitive screens, payout delays and occasional support friction; no Toollers hands-on trial occurred.

Pricing and value transparency3.9

Public starting fees include $29/employee/month for payroll and $599/employee/month for EOR, but country specifics, minimums, reserve requirements and payroll implementation charges require a quote.

Integrations, security and trust4.6

Official documentation identifies BambooHR, Workday, HiBob, Xero, QuickBooks and NetSuite integrations; its trust center lists ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2 materials, but certifications are vendor-disclosed rather than independently audited by Toollers.
