Ethur review
Background checks with candidate workflows, verification tools and per-report pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Ethur is a cloud employment-screening platform for employers and teams that need background checks within candidate workflows. Candidates can complete a branded, mobile-first portal, while employers manage reports and adjudication through status dashboards. Screening options include criminal, civil and watchlist searches, identity checks, employment and income verification, and license, drug and health checks. That makes Ethur a fit for teams whose candidate experience needs are closely tied to screening logistics, rather than organizations looking for a broad recruiting or candidate relationship platform.
Pricing is per report. Basic costs $29.99 and includes SSN trace, sex offender registry, global watchlist and national criminal searches. Essential is $49.99 per report and adds identity verification and county criminal search (7-year). Complete is $79.99 per report, with the listed highlights matching Essential. Enterprise offers custom screening packages, a dedicated account manager, volume pricing and SLAs. Additional third-party fees may apply. Buyers should compare expected report volume and package requirements; Enterprise is the stated option for volume pricing, while smaller teams can select among the published per-report packages.
For workflow fit, Ethur supports web and API access, with REST API and webhooks for embedded screening. Payroll and banking connections support employment and income verification, and listed integrations include ADP, Gusto, Paychex, QuickBooks, Stripe, Xero, Chase, Wells Fargo and PayPal. SMS or email invitations, AI-assisted report reconciliation and document review, and candidate status and adjudication workflows extend the screening process beyond search results. Cloud deployment and ticket and documentation support are listed, alongside SOC 2 and GDPR compliance. Choose Ethur when screening, verification and candidate follow-through are central; teams seeking a wider candidate experience suite should consider a more broadly focused product.
