JazzHR vs Workable
Both are credible. They are good at different things — here is how to tell which matches your problem.
JazzHR: long-established, affordable SMB ATS with straightforward job posting, applicant tracking and transparent pricing tiers. Workable: a mature, full-featured ATS with excellent job board distribution, a very large template library, and integrations with almost everything. The choice usually comes down to whether you need depth in one area or a single system covering more of the process.
JazzHR in short
Long-established, affordable SMB ATS with straightforward job posting, applicant tracking and transparent pricing tiers.
Watch out for: The product is built around tracking applicants rather than assessing them. Interview quality is left to you.
Workable in short
A mature, full-featured ATS with excellent job board distribution, a very large template library, and integrations with almost everything. If you need to advertise roles widely, it is genuinely strong.
Watch out for: The AI features are additions to an ATS rather than the centre of the product, and the assessment side is thinner than the sourcing and posting side.

Which should you pick?
Pick JazzHR if you mainly need somewhere to post jobs and track applicants cheaply. Pick HireIQ if the interviews themselves are the weak link.
Pick Workable if job board distribution and integration breadth are your priority. Pick HireIQ if your problem is the quality of your interviews, not the quantity of your applicants.
A third option worth knowing about
If you are comparing these two because you want structured interviews without running a large platform, HireIQ covers interview intelligence and the pipeline in one tool at €99/month published pricing — and coaches interviewers on their technique, which neither of the above is built to do.
