Hoe Paperform jaarlijks 104 dagen aan HR-kosten heeft bespaard via Deel

Launched in 2016 by husband-and-wife team, Dean and Diony McPherson, Paperform began as an online form builder, combining thoughtful and beautiful design with serious digital smarts. Now it’s become a digital Swiss Army Knife for its community of users and approaching $5 million in annual recurring revenue.

Today, Paperform provides payments, bookings, events, onboarding, calculations, and more to help organizations get paid, stay on schedule, connect with customers, and automate their work. All of this, all in one place, and without the need for users to write a single line of code.

Paperform is a remote-first company. While maintaining a physical office, they allow their global, 25-plus team to work 100% remotely. However, this approach initially meant the company had to navigate local laws and tax regulations in the countries where its workers resided all on their own. This led to a “fog of admin and process” for the company’s Australia-based founders.

Paperform needed to reduce its HR complexity because it was using different HR and payroll systems and spreadsheets to manage its international workforce. The company went on the hunt for the tools that manage HR and compliance at scale, enabling them to build out a global team for a medium-sized business.

"Deel helpt ons bij het opschalen van een team om klantenservice van hoge kwaliteit te leveren in verschillende tijdzones," zei Diony McPherson, medeoprichter en COO. "We hadden de gemoedsrust nodig dat we compliant waren in andere regio's en dat moest snel gebeuren."

The company soon recognized that Deel provided the ecosystem of solutions to address their challenges, like compliance, payroll, onboarding, employer of record services, and legal issues. Deel’s the perfect solution for Paperform because it can accomplish all this and more with one seamlessly integrated platform.

"Deel beheert een samenhangend ecosysteem van oplossingen. Dat is wat het een geweldig product maakt." zei McPherson.

Using Deel’s one click payroll feature, Paperform transformed what had been a time-consuming and arduous process each month, into a simple task that saved the company 104 days worth of HR costs each year.

Looking forward, McPherson plans to explore how Deel’s Xero integration can deliver an even greater reduction in management hours for Paperform and its HR team.
