Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Breezy HR

  • The free Bootstrap plan allows one active position or candidate pool at a time
  • Unlimited positions, EEOC reporting and video interviews all require Startup at $157 a month
  • Scorecards, interview guides and e-signatures need Growth at $273 a month
  • HRIS integrations, offer management and custom roles are Business tier at $439 a month
  • API access and advanced reporting are only on Custom Pro, which is quote-based

SeekOut

  • The self-serve Recruit Core tier caps monthly contacts at 500 and exports at 1,000, which an active recruiter can exhaust well before the month ends
  • Moving from Recruit Core to team-level plans reverts to custom quoting, so the published entry price does not scale predictably as a team grows
  • Candidate data is aggregated from public and licensed sources, so contact accuracy and freshness vary by role type and can lag for less public roles
  • ATS integration and market intelligence, the features larger teams actually need, sit behind the quoted tiers rather than the published price
  • SeekOut Spot's per-role pricing model still requires a sales conversation to size, despite being marketed as a lower-cost alternative to agencies
  • A large claimed database size does not guarantee coverage in every geography or niche technical skill, and buyers cannot verify coverage for their specific roles before purchase
