Managing freelancers can quickly become time-consuming, especially for small teams working with many external collaborators. Helve, an innovation management company, had worked with 70–100 freelancers over the years, and handling contracts, invoices, and compliance created significant administrative work.

Berg Research, a marketing and market research company, faced significant challenges in managing freelancer payments due to the administrative burden and increased regulatory complexities around outsourced workers. Coordinating moderators, interviewers, and observers across various projects required extensive manual tracking, compliance checks, and invoice handling, turning payment processes into a time-consuming task. To address these issues, Berg Research implemented Abillio, a structured platform for managing freelancer work and payouts. This solution provided clear visibility and compliance documentation for payments, reduced the need for manual calculations, and minimized back-and-forth between the company and freelancers. Freelancers gained access to a dashboard where they could track submitted hours, tasks, and payout status, improving transparency and reducing disputes. As a result of using Abillio, Berg Research significantly reduced its administrative workload, saving what used to be 2-3 days of admin work for just a few hours each month. This translated into an estimated savings of €600-€900 monthly in internal costs. The system also ensured fewer disputes over payments with freelancers, smoother interactions with tax authorities, and enhanced relationships with contributors who valued the transparency and predictability of their earnings.
