ATS comparison FAQ

How does Treegarden compare to other ATS platforms?

Treegarden combines a full ATS with a complete HR module — covering hiring, onboarding, leave management, and performance reviews — in one platform. Most competitors offer ATS-only functionality and require separate HR software after the hire. Treegarden also includes AI Recruiter, AI match scoring, bulk CV upload, auto-reject rules, and 9 job board integrations as standard features.

Which ATS is best for small and growing companies?

For small teams (under 50 people), Treegarden and Breezy HR are the most accessible options. For growing companies (50–250 employees), Treegarden, Workable, and Recruitee are commonly evaluated. Treegarden's advantage is that it includes HR management in the same platform, reducing the need for additional tools as the team grows.

What is the most affordable ATS in 2026?

ATS pricing varies significantly. Workable charges per job slot, Greenhouse and SmartRecruiters are enterprise-quoted, and JazzHR charges per user. Treegarden offers transparent per-seat pricing with unlimited job posts and no hidden fees. Request a quote for your team size.

Which ATS platforms include an HR module?

Most ATS platforms (TeamTailor, Recruitee, JazzHR, Comeet, Workable, Greenhouse, Lever, SmartRecruiters, Breezy HR) are recruitment-only and do not include HR management. BambooHR includes HR as its core product with a secondary ATS module. Treegarden is the only platform in this comparison that provides both a primary ATS and a complete HR module with equal depth.
