Tracker or Longlist: the quick verdict

Pick Longlist if you want email sequences, branded CV packs and a BD pipeline on your entry plan, with no minimum term and free migration. Pick Tracker if you need invoicing, timesheets, payroll or shift management on the same record as your CRM, or want to post to job boards from the ATS. Tracker reaches further into the back office, while Longlist starts at a lower seat price.

THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

What reviewers say about Tracker

Points from public Capterra reviews of TrackerRMS.

  • Depth takes time to learn

    Reviewers say the range of features makes team adoption hard work. Longlist covers the front office only, so there’s less to configure.

  • Finance setup

    Some reviewers found financial tracking complex to set up, with built-in fields they couldn’t edit. Longlist records fees and rates on the placement and leaves invoicing to your accounts system.

  • Reports need practice

    Reviewers mention needing training to get reports right. Longlist’s standard activity reports need no setup, and Plus adds custom reports.

PUT IT INTO PRACTICE

Switching from Tracker

Moving into Longlist is free, with no per-file or per-CV charge. Start with the terms of your Tracker agreement.

Walk through it with us
  1. 01

    Mark the end of your minimum term

    Every Tracker plan has a 6-month minimum. Check when yours ends and what notice your agreement needs.

  2. 02

    Ask Tracker for an export

    Request candidates, contacts, companies, jobs and placements, with resumes and notes. Tracker doesn’t publish its export format, so ask which files you’ll receive.

  3. 03

    Set up invoicing elsewhere

    If you invoice or run timesheets in Tracker, move that work to your accounting or payroll system first. Longlist records bill and pay rates but doesn’t invoice.

  4. 04

    We import and check

    Our team maps the fields, imports records, parses resumes and checks duplicates with you before the team logs in.

FROM THE TEAMS USING LONGLIST

Recruiters, in their own words.

Chris Byrne · Head of Delivery, Marsh RPF

Growing the business

I could say we have seen more than a 20% increase without any additional overhead.

Our business has gone up a lot, and there are two reasons for that. One – the database that we were able to build in quick succession allowed us to promptly reach out to candidates and clients.

Second, I feel more confident that we have all the new technology for recruitment at our disposal.

Brad Chapman · Managing Director, TechSearch360

Getting started

Longlist.io team has been a great support to us from the first day of the launch.

They understood straight away what a newly formed recruitment business would need and helped me to set up my recruitment processes to create candidate and client leads.

Matthew Edge-Wilkins · MD, Talent Seeker

Empowering the team

As the founder of TalentSeeker, integrating Longlist has been transformative.

It's not just about efficiency gains; it's about empowering our team to make smarter decisions and provide exceptional service to our clients and candidates.

LET’S CLEAR A FEW THINGS UP

Tracker RMS alternative FAQs

Talk to our team
Is Longlist cheaper than Tracker?

Longlist Growth is $59/user/month billed monthly, or $47 billed annually, and includes sequences. Tracker Launch is $79 and Core is $99, both with a 6-month minimum, and sequences need Professional. See pricing.

Can we leave Longlist within six months?

Yes. Monthly plans have no annual commitment. Annual plans are paid for the year at the lower rate.

Does Tracker have a free trial?

Tracker’s plans page offers self-serve purchase and demos; we didn’t find a trial there. Longlist has a 14-day trial with no card.

Does Longlist invoice clients or run payroll?

No. Keep invoicing in an accounting system such as Xero or QuickBooks, and payroll with your provider. Longlist holds the rates and fees for each placement.

What does moving from Tracker to Longlist cost?

Nothing on our side. Send us your Tracker export and we import and check your records and resumes with you.
