Employment Hero has been ranked #6 on G2’s 2026 Best Australian and New Zealand Companies list, securing its position as a Top 10 software company in the ANZ region and the highest-ranked workforce management platform.
Employment Hero, a global leader in HR, payroll, and employment software, earns prestigious recognition from G2, the world’s largest software marketplace. The #6 placement in the 2026 Best Australian and New Zealand Companies list underscores strong user trust and market momentum.
G2’s Best Software Awards, often called the “People’s Choice Awards” of tech, rely exclusively on verified user reviews rather than self-reported data or analyst opinions. With over 100 million annual visitors—including Fortune 500 decision-makers—G2 evaluates products across key criteria such as ease of adoption, support quality, and overall satisfaction. Employment Hero’s high ranking among more than 1,100 ANZ vendors reflects consistent positive feedback from real users managing daily HR and payroll operations.
As the top-ranked workforce management solution in the region, Employment Hero outperforms peers in its category while competing against broader software giants. The platform’s AI-powered Employment Operating System (eOS) unifies HR, payroll, recruitment, and employee engagement into a single, intuitive environment. Additional features like the EH Work superapp support career management and financial wellbeing, helping businesses reduce administrative workload by up to 80%.
“This award matters because it’s decided by the people who use our platform every day,” said Ben Thompson, CEO and Co-Founder of Employment Hero. “Ranking #6 across all software companies in Australia and New Zealand, and as the highest-ranked workforce management platform, shows businesses are choosing a better way to manage employment. I am so proud of our team: we now support more than 350,000 businesses facilitating over A$140 billion in annual payments, reflecting real scale and a clear shift toward AI-powered infrastructure that takes care of the whole employment process, from recruitment through to payroll.”
This milestone validates Employment Hero’s focus on delivering scalable, user-centric tools that simplify employment for organizations worldwide.
