A broad recruiting system for teams that need structured hiring and deep workflow control.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Greenhouse is an applicant tracking and hiring platform for recruiting teams managing structured, multi-stage hiring. Its scope covers talent sourcing and CRM, branded career pages, candidate applications, resume parsing, interview scheduling, scorecards, hiring workflows, reporting, onboarding and integrations. It is best suited to large recruiting teams that need consistent interview practices, centralized candidate information and process visibility across hiring activity.
Pricing is organized into Core, Plus and Pro plans, with customized pricing based on hiring needs, hiring volume and organizational complexity. Core includes sourcing and CRM, structured interview kits and scorecards, AI Notetaker, scheduling, reporting and analytics, and SSO. Plus adds AI-powered report filters, a Business Intelligence Connector, Greenhouse Sourcing Automation and texting. Pro adds unlimited CRM events, enterprise-level data configuration and security, an audit log, and a developer sandbox and sync. The published plans show no fixed prices, so choosing a tier requires a sales conversation.
Greenhouse stands out for combining structured evaluation with broad recruiting operations. Teams can automate hiring tasks and candidate status updates, use self-scheduling and interview scheduling automation, and support interviews with transcription and note generation. Integrations include Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Spark Hire, while web and API access support its platform footprint. The breadth will appeal to organizations that want sourcing, interviewing, analytics and onboarding in one system. Smaller teams or buyers seeking a simple, narrowly focused tracker or publicly listed pricing may prefer a less expansive option.
