Pricing. Checkr publishes per-report package prices from $29.99 and itemizes add-ons, with court fees passed through at cost. HireRight is quote-only.
Capabilities. Both are FCRA compliant with adverse action workflows, employment and education verification, drug screening, and ATS integration. Checkr documents more individual checks (county and national criminal, MVR, and SSN trace). HireRight lists criminal and driving record modules but publishes less detail about them.
Integrations. Checkr lists 200 native integrations plus a REST API and webhooks; HireRight lists 70, and we could not confirm a public API.
Security. HireRight documents SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and a trust center. We could not confirm Checkr's SOC 2 or ISO 27001 status on its public pages, so no winner can be named.
Fit and support. HireRight reports a one-day average US turnaround for 2025; Checkr reports 2 to 3 days average completion across screening types. The measures differ, so speed is not directly comparable. We could not confirm support details for either vendor.
Certn has the highest LeadChange Score in Background Check Services after excluding these two (6.3/10).
Checkr is the only one with published prices: Basic from $29.99, Essential from $59.99, and Complete from $94.99 per report, with court and database fees passed through at cost. HireRight is quote-only, so a direct price comparison is not possible. Request a HireRight quote for the same package of checks.
Checkr lists small business among its segments and publishes pay-as-you-go prices, which makes it easy to budget for low volume. HireRight does not state its target segments on the pages we reviewed, and its pricing requires a quote. Small employers can compare cost only after obtaining that quote.
Neither vendor documents a migration process. Checkr states partner API integrations average about two weeks and new accounts are credentialed in under one business day. HireRight states no implementation timeline. Confirm that your ATS connector, disclosure forms, and adverse action templates carry over.
Pricing and documented security. Checkr publishes per-report prices, lists about 200 integrations and offers a REST API. HireRight keeps pricing private, lists 70 integrations, and documents SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and a one-day average US turnaround. Both are FCRA compliant.
Yes for both, at different depths. Checkr lists Workday as a native integration among about 200. HireRight lists Workday as a marketplace partner alongside ADP, Oracle, and UKG, out of 70 integrations. Confirm which package types and workflows each connector supports with the vendor.
