Why people look past d.vinci

Prices are in euros only, and one-off workshop fees for setup come on top of the monthly fee. Onboarding is a separate product from €1,020/mo.

What we noted

Euro pricing only
Setup workshops cost extra

Not the right fit for

US SMBs that need USD pricing
Small teams with a tight budget

What each one does differently

softgarden

€199/mo API

Why it comes up: Another German ATS if d.vinci is one of two DACH bids.

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

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

Personio

€7.60/employee/mo API

Why it comes up: HR suite with recruiting built in for European SMBs.

Stands out: Core HR, time tracking, recruiting and payroll prep in one system, with over 200 marketplace integrations.

Watch out: Prices are published in euros only. Every active user counts as a license, and API access for custom integrations is on the Core Pro plan, not Core.

Best for

European SMBs consolidating HR tools
Companies wanting ATS and HRIS in one vendor
Teams running multiple legal entities

Teamtailor

Quote-based MCP API

Why it comes up: Employer-brand ATS with strong European adoption.

Stands out: An employer-brand career site that does not look like a default ATS page.

Watch out: Built for in-house European hiring rather than agency desks, and the MCP server is an add-on rather than part of every plan.

Best for

European mid-market in-house talent teams
Teams whose career site is the product
Desks that want employee advocacy on jobs

Greenhouse

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: US-focused enterprise ATS if German process fit isn't needed.

Stands out: Structured hiring plus marketplace depth, with a hosted MCP now in open beta.

Watch out: No published price, and the MCP is open beta rather than generally available.

Best for

Mid-market and tech talent teams
Companies that want shared scorecards
Desks that live on the integration marketplace
