Why teams switch

Real reasons recruiters move from Manatal.

Not marketing fluff — pulled from what users actually say in G2, Capterra, and our own founder conversations.

1

Stop paying per seat

Manatal's $19 quickly becomes $59/seat × your whole team. Oplantia is flat-rate.

2

Get the AI Manatal doesn't have

TRU Inbox Agent screens, replies, and books — Manatal still expects you to do it manually.

3

Own your data

Export anything, anytime, in any format — at no extra cost.

Real complaints

What Manatal users wish was different.

Aggregated from G2, Capterra, TrustRadius, and buyer-intel sources. We're not making this up — these are the actual pain points buyers report.

Pay to export your own data
No SMS, no in-app calling, no scorecards
Mobile app effectively unusable
Resume parser breaks on edge cases
Weak Boolean and archived-candidate search
Fair credit

What Manatal genuinely does well.

Easy onboarding and clean UI
Chrome extension for LinkedIn sourcing
Cheap entry price
