Our verdict

Virtudesk is strongest on pricing transparency (9/10): Hourly rates by role and package published, set-up fee and lock-in disclosed. Its weakest area is replacement & guarantees (3/10): No replacement policy published.

Real estate is its lead industry, with ISA and transaction coordinator roles.

What we like

  • Fully published hourly rates by role and by package size
  • Real estate roles priced individually, including ISA and transaction coordinator
  • Part-time and 10-hours-a-week packages, plus a designated account manager

What to watch

  • $450 set-up fee and a 3-month lock-in, with the first month prepaid before choosing a VA
  • No replacement policy published, and only one Trustpilot review
