Manatal Pricing per User for Professional, Enterprise and Enterprise Plus

Manatal costs $15 per user a month on Professional, $35 on Enterprise and $55 on Enterprise Plus when billed yearly, or $19, $39 and $59 per user billed monthly. Hiring managers are free on every plan, the 14-day trial needs no card, and a Custom plan above Enterprise Plus is quoted. We read these prices on manatal.com/pricing on 6 October 2026. We run a remote job board, not an ATS, so we have no stake in which system you choose.

How much does Manatal cost?

Manatal prices every plan per user, and a user means a recruiter or admin who works in the system. Hiring managers who only review candidates and leave feedback are unlimited and free on all plans.

The 15-job cap on Professional is counted per account, not per recruiter, and a single job can hold any number of openings. A small in-house team hiring ten support agents under one requisition uses one job, not ten. A staffing agency juggling roles for several clients hits 15 much sooner, which is why most agencies land on Enterprise.

Manatal's yearly discount is smaller than it looks

Paying yearly saves a flat $4 per user a month on every Manatal plan, so the discount is 21% on Professional, 10% on Enterprise and under 7% on Enterprise Plus. Several guides describe Manatal's yearly billing as saving about 20% across the board, which is only true of the cheapest plan.

That changes the usual advice. On Enterprise Plus, monthly billing costs only $48 more per user over a year, a small price for being able to drop seats when a client contract ends. Agencies with seasonal headcount often come out ahead paying monthly on the top plan and yearly on Professional.

What Manatal costs for a team of 1 to 10 users

A three-recruiter team pays $540 a year on Professional, $1,260 on Enterprise and $1,980 on Enterprise Plus, billed yearly. Because the price scales in a straight line with seats, the totals below are simple multiples, but they are the numbers that go into a budget request.

Manatal Professional vs Enterprise vs Enterprise Plus

Enterprise is the plan most teams need. It removes the job and candidate caps and adds workflow automation, which Manatal reserves for Enterprise and above. Enterprise Plus is worth its extra $20 per user only if you need one of its specific lines:

• Manatal Open API, for syncing candidates with payroll, an HRIS or your own reporting.
• Single sign-on and custom permissions with user groups, usually an IT requirement once a company passes a certain size.
• Advanced report builder and a candidate portal for internal mobility.
• ChatGPT, Claude and other LLM integrations, plus priority support and early access to beta features.

The Custom plan adds a dedicated account manager, phone support, custom integrations and custom compliance reports. Manatal also lists add-ons without public prices, including an AI Interviewer, a branded guest portal on your own domain, and the option to connect job posting contracts you already hold with other boards.

What the Manatal free trial holds back

The 14-day trial opens every plan's features except job board posting, sending email from the Manatal domain, mass email, email automations, AI-written job descriptions and the GDPR consent tool. Those unlock only after your first payment, and free job board posting also waits for account verification, which Manatal says usually takes up to three working days.

In practice that means you cannot judge applicant flow during the trial, because jobs do not go out to boards until you pay and pass verification. Use the trial to test sourcing, the pipeline and reporting on a role you already have candidates for, and plan your first live posting for the week after you subscribe. If you add a card during the trial, Manatal keeps your remaining trial days and bills when they run out.

Manatal vs Breezy HR, Zoho Recruit and JazzHR pricing

Manatal is the cheapest per-seat ATS with published prices for a small team, but flat-priced tools overtake it as the team grows. The crossover points, billed yearly:

Against Zoho Recruit pricing, which is also per recruiter, Manatal is cheaper seat for seat: $15 against $25 on the entry plans and $35 against $50 on Enterprise, billed yearly. Zoho has a free plan with one active job per recruiter and Manatal does not, and Zoho charges for hiring manager access in license packs, where Manatal does not. Our Breezy HR pricing page and JazzHR pricing page carry the full plan tables for the flat-priced side of this comparison.

Is Manatal worth it for a recruiting agency?

For a US agency with two to seven recruiters, Manatal Enterprise is one of the least expensive ways to get unlimited jobs, free hiring-manager access and workflow automation, at $840 to $2,940 a year. Past eight recruiters, compare it against a flat-priced plan before renewing. Agencies that also want client sales sequences and API access in the same seat usually price Recruiterflow pricing at $119 a user billed yearly, or Loxo pricing at $149 to $199 a user paid up front. Staffing firms that expect to run contractors and timesheets later usually also price Bullhorn pricing, from $99 a user on Starter.

Agency buyers should price the whole placement workflow, not only the ATS. Manatal tracks candidates and clients, but your fee terms and replacement guarantees still live in the signed agreement with each client, and plenty of agencies keep those in separate contract management software so renewals and guarantee periods do not slip. If you are setting your fee level in the first place, our guide to recruiter fees shows what US agencies charge on contingency and retained searches.

How to fill a Manatal pipeline with remote applicants

An ATS organizes applicants; it does not create them. Manatal posts to job boards once your account is verified, but a fully-remote role does better in front of people who only want remote work. A listing on our board costs $199 a month for one live role, or $99 a month billed yearly, shows the salary range, and sends every applicant to you by email and to your employer dashboard with resume and links. Manatal lets you add candidates by dropping a resume or forwarding an email, so each application lands in the right job in seconds.
