What the Current PCRM Offering Includes
From $125 per user per month, with no seat caps. The current offering includes the recruiting CRM and ATS, standard reports, integrations, basic API access, MCP access and standard support. MCP (Model Context Protocol) connects supported AI assistants, such as Claude or ChatGPT, to your PCRM data through the PCRM API, so you can ask questions of your records and work with them from the assistant. AI features, API access and texting are subject to applicable usage limits, approvals and third-party charges. For example, API access needs an approved App ID and has daily call limits, with higher volumes priced separately. Support is eight US based staff who answer the phone in under 30 seconds on average, and your first training session is scheduled within one business day of your onboarding call.

Three Questions to Ask Any Vendor, Including Us
What Is the Price at My Seat Count, With Everything I Need Switched On?
What Happens When I Call Support?
What Do Your Terms Say About My Candidate Data?
How We Keep This Page Accurate
Every figure here comes from the vendor’s own pricing, support or legal pages, read on 18 September 2026. Where a vendor does not publish something, the page says so rather than guessing. We recheck the whole page every quarter and change the date when we do.
If you spot something out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
Comparison Questions
Is PCRM the cheapest system on this page?
No. On published entry prices, Top Echelon, Crelate, Tracker and Recruit CRM start lower. The comparison worth making is what each system costs at your seat count with the features you need switched on.
Why are some prices missing?
How often is this page updated?
We check every vendor’s published pages each quarter. The last full check was on 18 September 2026.
Can you compare PCRM with a system that is not listed here?
Yes. Bring it to the call and we will walk through the same three questions against it.
Do you train AI on our candidate records?
We never use identifiable customer data to train AI. Anonymized data, meaning data that cannot reasonably identify or be linked back to you or any person, may be used, and we commit not to re-identify it. Some AI features use third-party providers to process data, and they are not allowed to use your data to train their models.
