How this provider compares

Final global workbook scores. How we score ↗

3.3/5

Consider it for

Employers considering Turkey specialist or auxiliary roles with payroll technology and explicit local-model constraints.

Main trade-off

The model-specific MSA, IP chain, severance reserve and transfer charges were not obtained.

Country fit & local delivery

CottGroup is a network of independent legal companies. Boss Yönetişim Hizmetleri AŞ is listed with trade registry555770 and MERSIS0180037918300011; exact employment contracting entity needs confirmation. Turkish EOR/PEO page warns conventional temporary arrangements are restricted and markets a hybrid PEO/BPO/ASO model for suitable auxiliary/specialist roles. It is not evidence of unrestricted indefinite EOR for any job. ADP is a local payroll-partner relationship, not ownership; Accace Circle link also denotes a partner network.

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.

Onboarding

Provider describes direct communication with workers, company email, personal records, occupational safety training and SSI start/end notifications. No validated legal start SLA, exact role eligibility or immigration package was obtained. Page includes COVID-era material, so stated four-month temporary-EOR restriction requires current role/legal review and cannot be treated as a current universal law conclusion.

Support & accountability

Turkey-based specialists and direct employer–employee communication are part of the described model.

Platforms & integrations

Informasoft advertises employee/manager self-service, attendance, leave and payroll integration with Bordromat. Main payroll page mentions payslip/leave/record access. Exact EOR inclusion, mobile experience, client report exports, external HCM interfaces, portal handoffs and recovery/uptime remain untested; exported software reach is not EOR country coverage.

Benefits & employee experience

Insurer choice, benefit premiums, leave demonstration and actual reimbursement timings are not supplied. Do not assume all hybrid variants include the same employer benefits.

Security

Boss payroll page says data is held in its Istanbul facility, while website privacy separately allows overseas providers including Microsoft365. KVKK policy details access matrices/logs, encryption, DLP, four-eyes transfers, safeguards for international transfers and breach notification within72hours, with delay reasons and partner contractual obligations. Exact EOR DPA/data-flow/subprocessor scope still needs confirmation; general-site transfers do not prove payroll records leave Istanbul.
