The short answer

  • Bullhorn : Global agency ATS if Carerix is too Benelux-centric. From $99/user/mo
  • softgarden : DACH in-house ATS if you are corporate Germany/Austria rather than a Dutch agency. From €199/mo
  • Tracker RMS : Agency ATS/CRM with a public $79 seat if you want a number. From $79/user/mo
  • Crelate : Staffing CRM with a public start if you want front office without Carerix configuration. From $85/user/mo

Why people look past Carerix

Quote-only, and the product assumes implementation. A two-person US desk will hate the fit.

What we noted

  • Quote-only, with no published rate card
  • Implementation-heavy versus a US SMB ATS
  • Interface and docs assume a Benelux buyer

Not the right fit for

  • US SMB in-house hiring
  • Buyers who need a public per-seat price
  • Teams that want to be live this week without a project

Worth keeping in mind: A 2003-era European recruitment platform you actually configure, used by agencies and corporates, not a US SMB clone.

What each one does differently

Bullhorn

$99/user/mo API

Why it comes up: Global agency ATS if Carerix is too Benelux-centric.

Stands out: Staffing CRM plus a marketplace of more than 300 partners on Core.

Watch out: Only the two small-agency tiers are published. AI, automation and analytics all sit behind a quote.

Best for

  • Staffing agencies
  • Desks that need client management next to jobs
  • Firms that live on the Bullhorn marketplace

softgarden

€199/mo API

Why it comes up: DACH in-house ATS if you are corporate Germany/Austria rather than a Dutch agency.

Stands out: The German and Austrian in-house default, with a published euro starting price.

Watch out: Anything beyond the core plan moves to custom pricing, and there is no MCP.

Best for

  • German in-house talent teams
  • Austrian in-house talent teams
  • German-speaking mid-market employers

Tracker RMS

$79/user/mo API

Why it comes up: Agency ATS/CRM with a public $79 seat if you want a number.

Stands out: A published per-user price for staffing front office plus reporting, rather than a quote.

Watch out: The entry plan is capped at around five users, so growing desks move up quickly.

Best for

  • Staffing firms wanting a published per-user price
  • Agency front office plus reporting
  • Desks comparing CATS and Recruit CRM

Crelate

$85/user/mo Free trial API

Why it comes up: Staffing CRM with a public start if you want front office without Carerix configuration.

Stands out: Desktop-class notes, hotlists and email sync for small agency desks.

Watch out: No MCP, and the published price is annual billing rather than month to month.

Best for

  • Boutique staffing agencies
  • Desks that live in email and hotlists
  • Small teams that want a recruiting CRM rather than a corporate ATS
