Collabfabrik: research & sources

An accessible regional offer with a published starting price, but conflicting price and company details need resolution. Contract and data safeguards remain incomplete.

Local EOR

Consider for
Employers exploring Armenia or Georgia hiring with direct local coordination.
Main trade-off
An imprint is not an EOR contract; minimum terms, notice, IP and exit charges remain unresolved and replacement promises concern placements.

Based on public documents and customer accounts. Global provider assessment; service has not been tested.

Country fit & local delivery

Coverage model

Collab Fabrik explicitly offers direct EOR in Armenia and Georgia, with additional locations explored through unnamed EU/other EOR partners. Its Armenia staffing article says it hires through its own local entity. No Georgian legal-employer name/registration or complete partner map was obtained. Berlin contact presence and EU/US/UAE customer locations do not establish employment coverage in those countries. This primary two-country offering warrants focused depth.

Provider statement · Sources
Checked 2026-09-16

No private quote, signed EOR contract, outreach or operational trial. Provider claims are not independent delivery verification. Search absence does not prove absence of incidents.

Company name conflict

The Terms of Service page is an imprint naming Collab Remote LLC, Armenian registration/application serial 264.110.1352332, represented by Armik Yordekyan at Nikoghayos Adonts Street 303, 6/1, Yerevan. The privacy policy instead names Collab Fabric Solutions LLC at Argishti 17/31. These are inconsistent published operator/controller details; no official extract or document establishing a rename, successor or two-entity relationship was obtained. Do not create a second competitor from the unverified name difference.

Onboarding

EOR page promises three-to-four business days after complete documentation; its headline says three days, while the February explainer says within seven days. These are different marketing statements, without an inspected contractual deadline. Sourced-candidate EOR differs from recruitment (about page typically two-to-three weeks, longer technical roles). No immigration sponsorship authority, nationality limitations or full required-document list was verified.

Costs, deposits & currency

Fees FX cash

The live general FAQ says prices are agreed before starting with no hidden charges or onboarding fees. It specifies monthly invoices payable by international bank transfer in EUR or USD and local payroll/tax payouts. No conversion benchmark/spread, bank charges, invoice-to-pay cutoff, deposit/custody/top-up or refund policy was obtained. The general EOR explainer discusses possible fees across the industry; those are not confirmed Collab charges.

Price versions

The current EOR landing page advertises from USD 199 monthly. Its February 2026 owned explainer instead says EUR 199, and its claimed G2 supplier overview says EUR 250 per employee/month. Retain each source/currency rather than invent a single current contractual rate. Public quote workflow promises a breakdown including payroll, taxes and compliance. Salary/statutory costs and optional health/gym/hardware benefits are not established as included in the management fee.

Replacement scope

The general FAQ offers a replacement candidate without extra cost within the agreed timeframe if a placement is unsuitable. Neither the time limit nor application to client-sourced EOR employees is published. It is not proof of cost-free employment termination, statutory severance waiver or an unconditional EOR refund.

Calculator verification

Employsome describes an EOR calculator with higher part/full-time fees. The current owned EOR page was inspected in the browser and no calculator was present; focused searches did not locate a working calculator. Those secondary calculator numbers remain an unverified research lead, not a tested current price.

Payroll that works in practice

Payroll

Provider says it runs contracts, local-currency payroll, tax/social contribution filings and employment records; general FAQ confirms monthly client invoicing. No worker pay calendar, salary funding cutoff, approval/correction workflow, error compensation or independent payroll-accuracy measure was inspected.

Support & accountability

Support

Published model emphasises local human support, with Yerevan/Berlin phone/email contacts and adaptation to Slack, email or client project tools. General FAQ promises ongoing HR/performance support; homepage says check-ins at least monthly depending on team size/service. No support-hour/time-zone guarantee, country-specific escalation or binding resolution SLA was found.

Platforms & integrations

Platform

No operational employer/worker EOR dashboard, partner portal, permission matrix, payroll export/API or uptime agreement was demonstrated. The provider explains communications through client-selected tools and an anonymous case of integrating staff into the customer’s CRM. This is service coordination and staff onboarding, not a native Collab software integration. The absence of a public demonstration is not proof that no internal tools exist.

Benefits & employee experience

Employee scope

Provider lists statutory payroll/leave administration and benefits such as health insurance, gym memberships and hardware. No employee-specific plan, benefit charge/inclusion schedule, leave approval process or expense reimbursement deadline was inspected. Georgia’s tax incentives described in the guide are conditional marketing guidance, not a verified entitlement for every EOR worker or the provider’s employing entity.

Contracts & responsibility

Contract authority

The EOR description leaves daily work management with the client and legal employment administration with Collab. No client EOR MSA, worker agreement, indemnity/insurance schedule or IP assignment chain was obtained. Statements that compliance risk sits entirely with the EOR cannot be treated as contractual elimination of client risk. The page labelled Terms of Service contains only an imprint.

Neither the time limit nor application to client-sourced EOR employees is published. It is not proof of cost-free employment termination, statutory severance waiver or an unconditional EOR refund.

Minimums exit

General FAQ says contracts typically start at three months with flexible project-specific terms; its footer says no long-term contracts. DesignRush’s supplier profile advertises four weeks notice, but the applicable service, currentness and relation to the three-month minimum are unconfirmed. EOR page offers transfer-in of existing Armenian workers and compliant termination/offboarding. No binding exit/transfer-out, severance allocation, early-exit fee, fund release or data handover schedule was obtained.

Employee data & security

Privacy processing

Website privacy policy names a controller and DPO, sets purpose-based retention, access/correction/deletion/portability rights and a 30-day response to requests. It discusses third-country tools, consent/standard clauses and website analytics providers. It is a website policy, not a complete payroll DPA; named payroll subprocessors, worker-data retention, EOR transfer safeguards and resolution of the controller-name mismatch remain gaps.

Security controls

The website policy claims organisational/technical measures and TLS, while acknowledging internet transmission risks. Its analytics paragraphs describe both US-hosted WordPress Statistics and own-server WP Statistics, so scope/current implementation needs clarification. No independent security certification/audit, EOR role-based access specification or contractual incident-notification deadline was obtained.

History continuity

Owned about timeline says business founded in 2020 and payroll/compliance added in 2022, whereas the claimed G2 overview mentions operating since 2019 and founded 2021; DesignRush also lists 2021. These are inconsistent marketing/listing dates, not verified incorporation history. Current audited accounts, payroll-fund protection, professional indemnity and continuity/fallback-employer plans were not obtained.

Customer review limits

G2’s live claimed profile explicitly has zero reviews; supplier-written overview figures and price are not customer testimony. The matching DesignRush page has supplier description and client names, with no customer account displayed. Main-platform/adverse searches yielded no attributable independent EOR customer sample. Named positive homepage testimonials concern sourcing/integration/VA support and are provider-selected; retain them as claims rather than current independent EOR evidence.
