// the verdict

The verdict

Connect Resources scores 56/100 on the Select Score, strongest on support and compliance. Its weakest axis is country coverage, the clearest trade-off to weigh before committing.

Connect Resources is a Dubai-based employer of record and payroll provider founded in 2016, focused on the UAE market. Its quote-based pricing and regional focus make it suited to companies hiring specifically within that geography rather than across multiple markets.
