The philosophical difference

Standalone enterprise ATS vs. bundled hiring + HR for India.

Greenhouse's assumption: recruiting deserves a dedicated, enterprise-priced platform separate from your HRMS. NestHR's assumption: for startups and colleges in India, hiring — especially campus recruitment — should be one module within a bundled, INR-priced HR system, not a separate US-enterprise-priced product. If Greenhouse's scale and price point don't fit your stage, NestHR's Talent OS was built for you.
