  • They diverge on capability: Jobvite covers Applicant Tracking, Manatal covers Candidate enrichment.

Where each one falls short

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

Jobvite

  • No pricing is published and no minimum is stated
  • The product is sold as a core applicant tracking system with onboarding, AI and recruitment marketing as separately added modules, so cost depends on a combination rather than a tier
  • Every route to a figure is a quote request

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

Jobvite: How much does Jobvite cost?

Jobvite does not publish standard pricing. The platform uses a modular, flexible pricing model where customers start with core ATS functionality and add optional modules (Onboarding, AI Companion, Recruitment Marketing, Analytics) as needed. Organizations must request custom quotes through the sales team at (888) 885-5299.

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.

Jobvite: How does Jobvite pricing work?

Jobvite employs a modular approach where customers configure solutions based on requirements. The core applicant tracking system serves as the foundation, with additional modules available as add-ons. Exact pricing depends on company size, hiring complexity, and selected modules, requiring individual consultation.

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.

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.
