The verdict

Syndesus 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.

Syndesus is a Toronto-based EOR provider founded in 2014, offering employer of record services with quote-based pricing. It operates in a focused set of markets rather than a global footprint, which makes it suited to companies with hiring needs concentrated in the specific countries it covers.
