Core HR
Core HR is software that can so easily fit on any kind of HR management system. It has amazing features. In case of new recruitment applicant tracking, application management, approval process control, etc could easily solve with Core HR. It is very much suited for company records management. It is a complete database for current employees as well.

Freshteam
Freshteam is much less expensive than other ATSs - we've recently switched to Greenhouse which is more than ten times as expensive. It seems like a good starter ATS for small startups and the automation may be useful for teams without dedicated HR support. I suspect that many companies will grow out of it the way we did.

ePlus inc.Information Technology and Services, 1001-5000 employees
Freshteam
- Pipeline features need to be improved so that we can map out our recruitment process onto the platform.
- Can we get options for embedding a carrier's web page into our existing website, to show all of our published jobs?
- Implementing a simple UI to push our job into third party websites, or an API which helps us find most known job portals.
- We need some assessment features for various jobs, including mine, so it will also a necessary part of every recruitment application.

The previous software I used was so limited in various core HR functions. On the other hand Core HR meets up our almost every requirement. And the very most reason to switch into Core HR is it has a free trail version for the users. That gives you much flexibility to check everything out properly

Freshteam
Zoho recruitment is also a decent product but we liked Freshteam over that just because of a few added advantages that this is giving to us, namely, we are using other products from Freshworks like Freshconnect. Secondly, Zoho does have less customer base compared to Freshworks. Hence we choose Freshworks over Zoho.
