How we evaluated Atlas HXM
This review rests on 19 facts checked against Atlas HXM’s official pricing pages and documentation, most recently on . We did not test the product hands-on: the score and the pros and cons use only those verified facts, as our methodology explains, and third-party ratings are quoted, never scored.
Our verdict
Atlas HXM fits companies that want a direct employer of record with its own legal entities in 160+ countries, plus an Agent of Record service for contractors that includes classification checks and up to $100,000 of Classification Protection per contractor. EOR starts at $599 per employee a month and AOR is $199 per contractor; it holds ISO 27001, 27017 and 27018 certification. It is less suited to buyers who want the lowest EOR fee or a Contractor of Record, since Atlas HXM offers AOR, not COR.
