Pricing Comparison

[8.0.3] PRICING / COMPARISON

Compare your hiring model with greater clarity

HivePo Pricing / Comparison is designed to help businesses assess the commercial impact of different recruitment models in a more practical and informed way.

Hiring costs are often misunderstood. Many businesses compare only headline fees or salary costs without properly accounting for the full picture, including internal overhead, management time, recruiter utilisation, flexibility, visibility, and the operating structure behind each model.

HivePo is designed to provide a clearer framework for that decision.

Different hiring models suit different business needs

There is no single recruitment model that is right for every business.

Some organisations need flexibility and low fixed commitment. Others need ongoing recruitment support across recurring hiring activity. Some businesses are best served by an internal talent function, while others benefit more from outsourced support that provides capability without adding permanent headcount.

That is why HivePo supports multiple service models rather than forcing every business into the same structure.

What should be compared

A proper comparison should go beyond simple fee percentages or salary figures.

Businesses should consider factors such as:

• annual hiring volume
• average salary of roles being hired
• internal recruiter salary and on-costs
• superannuation and payroll-related obligations
• insurance and operating overheads
• recruiter capacity and utilisation
• cost of systems, tools, and administration
• visibility across workflow and delivery
• flexibility to scale up or down
• speed of access to recruitment support
• overall commercial control

These factors can materially change which option is the better fit.

A more practical way to evaluate cost

HivePo’s Pricing / Comparison page is intended to support a more realistic buying decision.

Rather than relying on generic assumptions, businesses should assess recruitment cost in the context of their own hiring profile, internal resources, and growth plans.

For some businesses, a flexible On Demand model may be more appropriate. For others, a Monthly Fee model may offer stronger value across recurring hiring needs. In some situations, an internal team may also be a valid option.

The right answer depends on the business.

Cost comparison calculator

HivePo will include a pricing and cost comparison calculator designed to help businesses assess different recruitment models using their own inputs.

This calculator is intended to help users compare options such as:

• On Demand recruitment
• Monthly recruitment support
• internal recruitment team cost
• other outsourced recruitment structures

Users will be able to enter factors such as hiring volume, average salaries, recruiter cost assumptions, and other relevant inputs to generate a more tailored comparison.

Intelligent comparison support

Over time, HivePo will also incorporate intelligent platform support to make this comparison more useful.

Rather than simply producing numbers, the platform will help explain the commercial trade-offs between different models and provide a clearer summary of which option may be better suited to the business based on the data entered.

This is intended to create a more informed and more practical pricing conversation.

Why this matters

Recruitment is not just a service cost. It is an operating decision.

Businesses need to understand not only what they are paying, but what they are getting in return in terms of flexibility, visibility, process quality, speed, and scalability.

HivePo Pricing / Comparison is designed to help businesses make that decision with greater commercial clarity.

Built for a modern buying decision

HivePo is designed to support different hiring environments, different growth stages, and different workforce models.

That is why the platform offers multiple service structures and why the comparison page is focused on helping businesses identify the model that best suits their needs rather than presenting a one-size-fits-all answer.
