ClearCompany

No pricing is published anywhere on the site; every plan requires a demo or sales request to get a quote.
There is no self-serve free trial, unlike lighter-weight ATS competitors aimed at smaller teams.
The breadth of modules (ClearRecruit, ClearTalent, ClearGrow, ClearLearn, TotalTalent) makes it harder to evaluate which package fits a smaller team's needs without sales involvement.

iCIMS

Difficult customer support requiring escalation for resolution
Complex and dated user interface compared to modern cloud recruiting tools
CRM, ATS, and Text engagement systems do not sync well and require separate logins
Custom reporting is difficult to create without IT expertise
