Why buyers look beyond Greenhouse

  1. Quote-only pricing

    No prices are published. Cost depends on the plan, hiring volume, organizational complexity and required features, and every plan card leads to a demo.

  2. Features gated by plan

    Texting and Sourcing Automation start at Plus, while the audit log, developer sandbox and unlimited CRM events are in Pro only.

  3. Faster support costs extra

    Standard Support runs Sunday 6 PM to Friday 6 PM Pacific time. A 30-minute, 24x7 response target for urgent issues needs Premium Support, at an unpublished fee.

  4. Hiring only, not core HR

    Greenhouse covers recruiting, sourcing, onboarding and reporting. It is less suited to buyers who want payroll and HR records in the same product.
