// the verdict

The verdict

Cadana scores 58/100 on the Select Score, strongest on support and compliance. Its weakest axis is country coverage, the clearest trade-off to weigh before committing.

Cadana is a Toronto-based Employer of Record founded in 2021, offering EOR, payroll, and contractor management across a moderate range of countries. It operates on quote-based pricing, so cost comparisons require direct contact. Cadana is a fit for teams that prioritize support quality and compliance over platform integrations or pricing transparency.
