The short version

  • Each has a real cost: ClearCompany no pricing is published anywhere on the site; every plan requires a demo or sales request to get a quote.; Manatal pricing is per recruiter seat, so putting every hiring manager into the system to review candidates multiplies the licence count and erases the price advantage.
  • They diverge on capability: ClearCompany covers Applicant tracking & recruiting, Manatal covers Candidate enrichment.

Where each one falls short

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

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.

Manatal

  • Pricing is per recruiter seat, so putting every hiring manager into the system to review candidates multiplies the licence count and erases the price advantage.
  • Candidate enrichment depends on public profile data, so accuracy drops sharply in markets where professional networking sites have low penetration and the scores become misleading rather than useful.
  • Integrations with major HRIS and payroll systems are limited compared with Western competitors, so new hire handover is frequently a CSV export rather than a sync.
  • Support operates on Indochina business hours, which leaves European afternoons and all of North American working hours outside the responsive window.
  • Reporting covers recruiter activity and source data but lacks the cohort and quality-of-hire analysis a mature talent function expects, and custom analysis means exporting to a spreadsheet.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

ClearCompany: What does ClearCompany cost?

ClearCompany does not publish pricing. It offers packages like ClearRecruit, ClearTalent, ClearGrow, ClearLearn, and TotalTalent, and visitors must book a demo or request pricing to get a quote.

Source
Manatal: Is it for agencies or in-house teams?

Both. The agency mode adds client and placement management; the corporate mode is a conventional ATS. Buying the wrong mode means paying for modules you never open.

ClearCompany: Is there a free plan or trial?

No free trial information is provided on ClearCompany's pricing page; the company routes all pricing inquiries through a demo request.

Source
Manatal: How is it priced compared with other ATS products?

Per recruiter seat per month. That is not comparable with vendors that charge per active job slot or per employee, so model your real user count before comparing headline numbers.

ClearCompany: What does ClearCompany integrate with?

ClearCompany connects with existing HR systems as part of its shared platform foundation, aiming to eliminate data silos between recruiting, performance, and learning tools.

Source
Manatal: Where is candidate data hosted?

On cloud infrastructure with GDPR commitments, but region-specific residency guarantees are weaker than EU-native vendors offer, which matters for regulated European buyers.

Manatal: Does the AI scoring actually work?

It ranks reliably against structured requirements such as skills and experience length. It is far less reliable where enrichment data is sparse.
