November 4, 2025

SD Worx, the leading European HR solutions provider, has been recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Everest Group Multi-country Payroll (MCP) Solutions PEAK Matrix® Assessment for EMEA. The study benchmarks payroll providers on their market impact and their capability to deliver multi-country payroll services effectively and at scale.

In this year’s EMEA-focused assessment, Everest Group evaluated 21 payroll providers and positioned them as Leaders, Major Contenders, or Aspirants. SD Worx’s recognition as a Leader reflects its strong position in the EMEA payroll market and its ability to deliver compliance-focused services across multiple countries. The company maintains a robust payroll delivery capability in Europe, operating in 26 countries with own payroll engines in 20 of these markets and its proprietary Innovapay offering, powered by SAP Employee Central Payroll, in 11 countries. This enables localised expertise and strong regulatory compliance across the region.
“By reinforcing its strong European presence and integrated payroll and HR solutions, SD Worx has retained its position as a Leader on Everest Group’s EMEA MCP PEAK Matrix® 2025. SD Worx continues to expand its reach through strategic acquisitions such as Socialea in France, while advancing AI-powered payroll innovation and SAP-based capabilities to strengthen compliance and enhance user experience. By uniting proprietary payroll engines with local expertise and digital-first delivery, SD Worx is enabling enterprises to achieve payroll accuracy, regulatory confidence, and a more agile employee experience across the region,” said Priyanka Mitra, Vice President at Everest Group.
