What is an ATS - and what's a "lite ATS"?
An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is the system of record for hiring — collecting applications, organising candidates, managing the funnel, and producing the reporting that hiring teams run on. A "lite ATS" is a slimmer version bundled inside a broader hiring platform. What each is, when each makes sense, and how to evaluate the right fit for your hiring volume and complexity.
