Manatal, headquartered in Bangkok, is widely used by recruitment agencies in Asia, including India, because of its low per-user price and client-and-candidate CRM.
A cost guide lists Professional at $15 per user a month, Enterprise at $35 and Enterprise Plus at $55 (with API access), plus Custom pricing, with paid plans billed annually. A free trial gives a dashboard preview; posting jobs requires a paid plan.
