HiBob is a people platform for your own workforce, and it covers more of core HR than we do. The difference is who the person works for.
HR teams running the employee lifecycle for their own headcount — records, workflows, payroll, benefits, compensation and workforce planning.
HiBob describes itself as HR software for people, payroll and finance.
Hiring, employing, billing and offboarding on one record — built for teams who place people at clients as well as hiring their own.
From first contact to final payslip.
| HiBob | EasyCruiter | |
|---|---|---|
| Core HR and employee records | Core product, with workflows, analytics and self-service. | Covered: contracts, documents, equipment, access, time, leave, reviews and offboarding. |
| Payroll | Core product, with dedicated US and UK payroll and a payroll hub. | Payroll runs and payslips on the same record as the hire. |
| Recruiting pipeline | Hiring and onboarding sit inside the talent module of a broader HR suite. | Recruiting-first: pipelines, a board, AI CV screening, talent pools, a careers site and an external recruiter portal. |
| Placing someone at a client | Not among its listed product areas. | Placements, client proposals, a client portal, delivery tracking and NPS. |
| Client billing, margin and commission | Not among its listed product areas. | Placement invoicing, commission calculation, and cost-to-employ modelling before you quote. |
Everything in the HiBob column describes what HiBob lists on its own site, checked on 30 August 2026. Products change; if you spot something out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
Everyone on your books is your own employee, and your problem is HR depth: compensation review cycles, benefits administration, workforce planning, engagement. HiBob is a deeper HRIS than we are and we would not pretend otherwise.
If you place people at clients, the thing that hurts is not the pipeline — it is everything after it. Who is on which placement, what it bills, what margin it earns, what commission it owes, and whether the client is happy enough to renew. That is the part we built.
