For independent recruiters, Augtal is the clear winner over Dover. Augtal's free forever plan gives solo recruiters full ATS and CRM functionality, plus AI-powered candidate ranking—all at no cost, while Dover starts at $75/user/month.
Augtal's free tier eliminates the $900-$1,800 annual overhead that Dover's pricing would incur for a solo recruiter. This means every dollar of placement fees goes straight to your bottom line with Augtal, instead of being eaten up by monthly software costs.
Beyond the cost savings, Augtal's AI candidate ranking and Signals feature provide solo recruiters with enterprise-level capabilities typically locked behind expensive paywalls. There are no annual contracts or implementation delays, just instant access to tools that give you a competitive edge.
