Cheaper ways to solve the same problem
Cheaper than JobScore (7)
Entry price under JobScore's $69/month. The record does not say what unit that price is charged in, so confirm per-seat versus flat rate before comparing budgets.
What you would be giving up
JobScore is most often brought in for small business hiring without a dedicated recruiting team, posting jobs to multiple boards from one place, scoring and comparing candidates in a structured pipeline, tracking recruiting metrics and diversity compliance. Anything replacing it has to cover the ones you actually depend on, and a cheaper tool that misses one of them is not cheaper.
Two things this page cannot settle. It compares on price, model, tier count and rating, because those are the fields the category listing carries, feature-level differences need both full records, which is what the head-to-head pages load. And the ratings are third-party aggregates imported with each entry rather than reviews written here, so a 0.2 difference between two tools is noise rather than a finding.
If JobScore is broadly right and the question is cost, the JobScore pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Recruitment & ATS category lists everything the directory holds, and best recruitment & ats tools ranks them.
JobScore runs on web, api. Platform coverage is not carried on the category listing for the alternatives, so it is one more thing to check on each head-to-head page rather than here.
