VERDICT

Should I use VirtualStaff.ph?

Build your Filipino team — virtual assistants, back-office and support staff — using the VirtualStaff Seat System. Simple, transparent, and no inflated salaries. - virtualstaff.ph

Depends. A fit if you want self-service control over dedicated full-time Filipino staff at a flat $99/seat/month. Not for multi-country hiring, buyers wanting a managed service, or teams needing responsive support.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 13+ public sources. Evidence confirms $99/seat/month pricing and Philippines-only scope, but names no specific customer companies and provides no security findings.
