## Reviews

### "Affordable job postings across all relevant job boards, with the convenience of paying by invoice." — 5.0/5

> **Niels** | *8 October 2026* | Furniture | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The multiposting is really easy to use. We book our ads in one place, and they are then published on all the platforms that are relevant to us. The pricing is very attractive as well. We also really appreciate that it is possible to pay by invoice.
> 
> **Cons**: For some individual ad combinations, I found slightly lower prices with other providers. But the difference is very small and it is absolutely fine for us, because recruware has to make a living too and after all the software itself is entirely free.
> 
> For posting our job ads, recruware is our first choice. One portal, all the relevant platforms, attractive prices, and the option to pay by invoice. We currently receive applications by email, which works perfectly fine for us as well. Our next step is to move our applicant management over to recruware too, which should save us even more time.

### "Easy setup and very good customer support" — 5.0/5

> **Tiphaine** | *13 October 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Setting up was quick and straightforward. The platform is easy to navigate and understand. I could get started right away without any problems.
> 
> **Cons**: Their marketplace only offers job boards in the DACH region. You can still post your job ad internationally and manage your applications in recruware, but it's more convenient to book job postings directly in their marketplace. Please add more European job boards.
> 
> It’s easy to use and helps keep the recruitment process organized. It saves time and makes managing candidates much simpler. Their customer support is also extremely responsive and helpful.

### "Recruiting-Software mit persönlichem Support, der Anregungen wirklich umsetzt" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *5 October 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Am meisten überzeugt uns die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Team: Unsere Vorschläge wurden nicht nur angehört, sondern zügig abgestimmt und zum Teil schon umgesetzt. Der Einstieg war durchgehend angenehm – Beratung vor der Registrierung, Livechat und ein ausführlicher Termin, in dem wir unsere Anforderungen im Detail besprechen konnten. Praktisch ist außerdem die KI-gestützte Empfehlung für Stellenpakete, die sich einfach und auf Rechnung buchen lassen.
> 
> **Cons**: Echte Kritikpunkte haben wir kaum. Ein paar Anforderungen aus unseren internen Prozessen deckte das System nicht sofort vollständig ab. Dank des direkten Drahts zum Team wurden diese Punkte aber schnell besprochen und werden zeitnah umgesetzt.
> 
> Wir sind mit recruware sehr zufrieden. Der gesamte Prozess ist unkompliziert, der Austausch sehr angenehm und die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit auf unsere Anregungen beeindruckend. Als Nächstes binden wir die Produktion und die Logistik samt ihrer Abteilungsleiter ein und können uns gut vorstellen, nach und nach auch die weiteren Abteilungen auf recruware umzustellen.

### "Das ideale ATS für kleine Unternehmen: von der Anzeige bis zur Zusage" — 5.0/5

> **Jessica** | *5 October 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: recruware deckt für uns als kleines Unternehmen den kompletten Prozess ab: Anzeige konzipieren und erstellen, effizient schalten, Bewerbungen verwalten und mit den Kandidaten kommunizieren, vom Eingang bis zur Zu- oder Absage. Die Bedienung ist so einfach, dass mir der Einstieg nach längerer Recruiting-Pause sehr leichtgefallen ist. Und das Team setzt sinnvolle Erweiterungen in beeindruckendem Tempo um.
> 
> **Cons**: Echte Schwachpunkte sehen wir kaum. Der Funktionsumfang ist so groß, dass man sich etwas Zeit nehmen sollte, um alle Möglichkeiten zu entdecken. Wünsche, die bei uns aufkamen, hat das Team schnell aufgegriffen und umgesetzt. Eine App fürs Handy wäre schön oder zumindest die Darstellung über den Browser am Handy würde helfen, wenn man mal gerade kein Ipad/Laptop zur Hand hat.
> 
> Wir sind mit recruware mehr als zufrieden. Auf unsere Stelle als AI-Manager kamen überraschend viele gute Bewerbungen, und ohne ein ATS wären wir da schlicht nicht hinterhergekommen. Die Anzahl guter Bewerber hat uns überwältigt, so dass wir uns am ende sogar für 2 Personen entschieden haben in der Besetzung der Stelle. Mit recruware hatten wir jederzeit den Überblick und konnten alle Kandidaten sauber bis zur Entscheidung begleiten. Dazu kommt ein Team, das Erweiterungen unglaublich schnell umsetzt. Ehrlich gesagt finde ich es verrückt, dass es so eine Software komplett kostenfrei gibt\!

### "Klasse Software zum Nulltarif und ein Team, mit dem die Zusammenarbeit Spaß macht" — 5.0/5

> **Albrecht** | *12 October 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Die Software ist sehr benutzerfreundlich, übersichtlich und läuft einwandfrei. Dass man so etwas komplett kostenfrei bekommt, hat mich wirklich überrascht. Ein großes Plus ist außerdem das Team hinter recruware: freundlich, dynamisch und kompetent, egal ob Geschäftsführung oder Support. Vorschläge von Nutzern fließen spürbar in die Weiterentwicklung ein, ich konnte selbst etwas zur Verbesserung des UX Designs beitragen.
> 
> **Cons**: Da recruware noch sehr neu am Markt ist, gibt es an der einen oder anderen Stelle noch etwas Feinschliff zu tun. Grundsätzlich funktioniert aber alles super, und Verbesserungsvorschläge werden schnell umgesetzt.
> 
> Rundum positiv. Mit recruware konnte ich alle unsere offenen Stellen besetzen. Die Software ist clean, intuitiv und zuverlässig, und die Zusammenarbeit mit dem Team macht einfach Spaß. Für eine kostenfreie Lösung ist das eine absolute Empfehlung.
