Thinking of leaving Bullhorn?

ATSpro vs Bullhorn

Bullhorn is a powerful enterprise platform. It's also expensive to buy, slow to implement, and built around a module model that charges extra for things UK agencies actually need. Here's an honest side-by-side.

Bullhorn's pricing is opaque by design.

There's no public pricing because the real cost only becomes clear after an enterprise sales process — licence fees, setup fees, module fees, and annual contracts. Most UK agencies end up paying £120–200+ per user per month once you account for the modules you actually need.

The modules model means you pay again for things that should be included.

Compliance tools, AI matching, job board distribution — these are usually sold as separate packages in Bullhorn. In ATSpro, everything is in the £49 licence. No decisions about which modules to enable.

Implementation takes months and costs thousands.

A typical Bullhorn implementation for a small UK agency involves a consultancy engagement, custom configuration, and training. By the time you're live, you've spent more than a year of ATSpro licences on setup alone.

Bullhorn's AI is read-only. ATSpro's AI acts.

Bullhorn has added AI summaries and insights. ATSpro's AI assistant goes a step further — it takes real actions. Send an email, chase a reference, create a job, report on revenue — all from a chat interface. That's a fundamentally different capability.
