Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
1.6
GPA, above 6 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade
Hireology is a hiring platform for businesses with several locations, such as auto dealerships and healthcare groups. It combines career sites, job distribution, interview scheduling and candidate management, and offers a Perform plan with AI features on top of the Core plan.
To get you started, here are 7 things to know about Hireology, taken from its own pages and our grades.
No price is published and AI Match, AI summaries and the AI interview are not in Core.

The report card
Best for hiring across many locations
Hireology is a hiring platform for employers with many locations, sold in a Core and a Perform package. No price is published and AI Match, AI summaries and the AI interview are not in Core.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | No price is published, so it sits at the ordinary grade until the vendor says. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan and no trial. Core has Get Started and Perform has Book a Demo. |
| Features | C | Multi-location management, sourcing, scheduling, background checks and offers. The AI features and Enhanced Onboarding are not in Core. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. A multi-location setup to configure. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only and only Netchex is listed as a link. The mobile app is named but its platforms are not. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Hireology is for
- Fits if you hire for several locations, such as dealerships or clinics
- Works for HR teams that want background checks and offers in the same tool
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a published price, as none is shown
- Tight if you take Core, as the AI Match, summary and interview tools are left out
- Watch out: Enhanced Onboarding and AI Interview are quoted as separate upgrades
- Watch out: the mobile app's platforms are not listed
Good to know
Good for
- Multi-location operators such as dealerships and care providers
- Businesses where location managers do the hiring
- Teams that want AI screening without a separate tool
Worth knowing
- No prices are published: Core has a Get Started button and Perform a Book a Demo button.
- AI Match, AI Candidate Summary and AI Interview are not in the Core plan.
- Enhanced Onboarding and AI Interview are quoted as separate upgrades.
- The page shows a Mobile App feature, but does not list which platforms it runs on.
Part 02 · Pricing
What it costs
Every plan, the free plan, ways to pay less and how prices have moved
Hireology's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.
No price is published, so it sits at the ordinary grade until the vendor says.

Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
6/101
Other hiring and applicant tracking tools it is graded above
Hireology's GPA of 1.6 is higher than 6 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools we grade, and level with 23.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Hireology you would be making jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 72 of the 101 other hiring and applicant tracking tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Applicant tracking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Hireology’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
