HR and recruiting software pricing
HR software is priced per employee per month, recruiting software per active job opening or per recruiter seat, and payroll adds a base fee per company on top. Many vendors here only quote on request, which makes the ones that publish a price list stand out.

Duunitori price history, EUR per job ad, excluding VAT
Duunitori is Finland's largest job board by traffic, and it prices like a media house rather than a software vendor: employers buy a listing or a campaign per open position, not a seat. The free listing runs 14 days, paid tiers run 30 days and scale by the reach and applications they are estimated to bring, and heavy recruiters buy prepaid credits instead of paying per ad.

Jobilla has kept Standard at €715 since 2026
Jobilla price history, EUR per month, billed monthly
Jobilla runs targeted recruitment marketing campaigns on social media and other channels, and instead of charging per campaign it sells an annual subscription capped by recruitments per year. The three published tiers differ mainly in that cap and in the per-recruitment price it implies, from 357 euros on Standard down to 197 euros on Premium.

Teamtailor pricing over time
Teamtailor price history, USD per month, advertised starting price
Teamtailor is a Stockholm-built applicant tracking system that bundles a career site builder, candidate relationship management and employer branding tools.

Workable price history, USD per month, small-company plan
Workable started as an applicant tracking system for small and midsize companies and now bundles sourcing, AI screening and an HR module. Its prices step up by company headcount, so the published figures for 1 to 20 employees are the floor, not the typical bill.

Workable has run three different pricing models. From 2014 to 2016 it sold flat monthly plans by number of active job slots. From 2017 to about 2021 it switched to pay-per-job pricing (Pay As You Go at $50, later Advanced/Core at $99 per job per month), which is not on the chart because it is a different unit. Since 2022 it prices flat monthly plans by company headcount instead, which is the model shown below from 2022 onward, for the 1-to-20-employee bracket. Premier came down from $659 to $599 a month between 2022 and 2023; an Enterprise tier at $719 first appeared by 2026.

- Are HR and recruiting software prices going up or down?
- Across the 6 plans we chart, list prices over the last three years are roughly flat. Increases outnumber cuts, 4 to 2.
- How are the price predictions calculated?
- Each plan gets a compound yearly rate of change between its first and latest observed list price within the last 36 months. The 6 and 12 month figures apply that rate to the latest price. Plans moving more than 100 percent a year are not projected, and a plan needs at least three observations spanning nine months. It is arithmetic on past list prices, not a forecast of what any company will do.
