Where each one falls short

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

Greenhouse

  • Core plan lacks talent discovery and contact lookups
  • Core plan lacks email automation and applicant texting
  • Plus plan lacks resume anonymisation and application limits
  • Plus plan lacks audit logging and developer tools
  • Pricing customised by hiring volume and company size, not published
  • Only Pro tier offers audit logs and developer sandbox

Occupop

  • There is no outbound sourcing or passive candidate search, so any role that will not fill from applications has to be worked in LinkedIn Recruiter or an agency and tracked back manually.
  • Integration coverage is thin outside the Irish and UK ecosystem, so a company running a US payroll or a major HRIS will usually be exporting CSV files rather than syncing new hires.
  • Reporting answers time to hire and source questions but does not support the cohort or funnel analysis a talent team needs once it runs dozens of requisitions at once.
  • The vendor is small, which means the roadmap moves slowly and there is no realistic pressure a mid-market customer can apply to get a feature built.
  • Pricing is quoted rather than published and is structured around plan tiers and hiring volume, so seasonal employers can find the annual cost jumps in the year they run a peak recruitment campaign.
