The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Pinpoint pinpoint's homepage describes its applicant tracking system features in depth but every pricing action is a bare 'Request pricing' link, with no edition names or figures published anywhere on the site; Employment Hero hR Essentials at AUD 10/employee/month requires a minimum of 10 users, so it cannot be bought for a team smaller than that even if actual headcount is lower
