The short answer

  • Crystal Knows : Personality intelligence with a public $49 Premium if you want DISC-style guidance, not job-fit testing. From $49/mo
  • TestGorilla : Broad skills tests if personality/aptitude is only one slice of screening. From $215/mo
  • Criteria : Pre-hire testing suite often compared with HighMatch/Berke on aptitude and fit. From Sales-quoted
  • Harver : High-volume hiring assessments if the reqs are hourly and volume-shaped. From Sales-quoted

Why people look past Berke Assessment

You are buying HighMatch. Budget a quote and an implementation into the ATS, not a $49/mo DISC login.

What we noted

  • Quote-only
  • Brand is now HighMatch
  • Not a coding assessment

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that want Crystal-style browser personality lookups
  • Buyers who need a public per-assessment price
  • Engineering orgs that need coding tests

Worth keeping in mind: Job-fit assessments with a long ATS list on the HighMatch site (Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, JazzHR, Jobvite, Taleo, ADP, Paylocity).

What each one does differently

Crystal Knows

$49/mo Free tier MCP API

Why it comes up: Personality intelligence with a public $49 Premium if you want DISC-style guidance, not job-fit testing.

Stands out: A $0 living profile plus a $49 Premium, with an MCP and Personality API, which is unusual in assessments.

Watch out: This is not a pre-hire job-fit exam like Berke. Buyer Profiles for sales are custom-priced and the API is credit-based. Crystal has no timed trial.

Best for

  • Sales and recruiting individuals who want DISC-style prep
  • Teams that want an MCP or Personality API
  • HubSpot or Salesforce users

TestGorilla

$215/mo Free tier

Why it comes up: Broad skills tests if personality/aptitude is only one slice of screening.

Stands out: A large test library with anti-cheating measures and a genuine free plan.

Watch out: The jump from Core to Plus is steep, and it is tests rather than video interviewing.

Best for

  • Teams that want evidence before a live interview
  • Organisations on the major applicant trackers
  • Buyers replacing an enterprise assessment module

Criteria

Sales-quoted 14 day free trial API

Why it comes up: Pre-hire testing suite often compared with HighMatch/Berke on aptitude and fit.

Stands out: Cognitive, personality, emotional intelligence, risk, and skills tests on one platform, with video interviews in the same suite.

Watch out: All three packages are sales-quoted. AI proctoring, the AI interview agent, and AI scoring are paid upgrades, and Develop is a separate add-on.

Best for

  • HR teams adding validated pre-hire tests
  • Companies that want cognitive plus personality tests
  • Teams that want tests and video interviews together

Harver

Sales-quoted API

Why it comes up: High-volume hiring assessments if the reqs are hourly and volume-shaped.

Stands out: Combines assessments, pymetrics game-based tests, video interviews and Checkster reference checks under one vendor.

Watch out: Pricing is sales-quoted and built around volume and modules, so expect a demo and scoping before any number.

Best for

  • Contact centers and BPOs hiring at volume
  • Retail and hourly hiring teams
  • Enterprises adding predictive assessments to an ATS
