Where they pull apart

Choice Screening

Stands out: No monthly minimums and no setup fees, with packages built from 30-plus products.

Watch out: There is no public dollar menu. You fill a price request and wait for an account executive.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that want a printed $26-style check menu
  • Buyers who need a public developer API

PeopleFacts

Stands out: One shop for criminal, drug, DOT, credit, and international screens without an enterprise CRA brand.

Watch out: There is no public per-check menu. Buying starts with sales, and packages are custom.

Not the right fit for

  • HR teams that want a published $ per check
  • Buyers who need a self-serve small-business storefront
