Which one is for you
Pick TestGorilla if

- Works for small teams testing a handful of candidates a month on 10 free credits
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need somewhere to track applicants, as it doesn't do that
- Pricey if you want test results flowing into your ATS, since that needs the $520 plan
- Tight if you lean on AI interviews, which cost 2 credits each and stack up
- Watch out: Sourcing is a separate subscription from $74 a seat, capped at 1 seat on Core and 5 on Plus
- Watch out: Assessments prices are starting prices, billed annually, with no word on the credits included
Pick Vervoe if
- Fits if you want candidates to do a job-like task before you read their CV
- Works for teams that screen many applicants for the same role
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a price before a call, since none is published
- Tight if you want to try it first, as no trial is listed
- Watch out: SSO, regional data storage and uptime SLAs are listed as enterprise features
- Watch out: Vervoe says its AI grading reaches 80% accuracy against your own grading, which is its own claim
- Too light for anyone who needs the API, which is for enterprise customers only

Nothing in the core screening job is missing. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
