What each one does differently

Bullhorn

$99/user/mo API

Why it comes up: Agency ATS if you need the default staffing suite.

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

4.0 on Capterra from 1,023 reviews

Crelate

$85/user/mo Free trial API

Why it comes up: Recruiting CRM if sales pipeline is the harder problem.

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

4.5 on Capterra from 443 reviews

JobDiva

Quote-based API

Why it comes up: Staffing ATS if you want a large-agency alternative.

Stands out: Vendor management and timesheets on a staffing ATS rather than a corporate tracker.

Watch out: The interface is not the selling point, and there is no published price.

Best for

High-volume staffing firms
Managed vendor programmes
Desks that need timesheets in the ATS

4.5 on Capterra from 1,185 reviews

RecruitBPM

$29/mo

Why it comes up: ATS plus CRM if you want another all-in-one desk.

Stands out: One subscription for ATS, CRM, sequences, e-sign, timesheets, and invoices, with unlimited users on company plans.

Watch out: Company Essential is $29/mo only on annual. Monthly Essential is $39. Resume parse and enrichment use monthly credits.

Best for

In-house TA teams that want unlimited users on $29 annual
Staffing desks that want ATS plus back office in one login
Agencies that will pay $89/mo for Premium monthly
