SmartRecruiters
SmartRecruiters advisory across implementation, optimisation, and platform strategy — including the significant implications of the 2025 SAP acquisition.
SmartRecruiters built its reputation as the alternative to legacy enterprise ATS platforms — more configurable, more modern UX, and a stronger candidate experience architecture. Implementing and optimising it well requires understanding both its strengths and its specific configuration pitfalls.
SAP's 2025 acquisition changes the platform's strategic context materially. Existing customers face questions about roadmap direction, integration priorities, data architecture, and what the combined SAP–SmartRecruiters ecosystem means for their long-term investment.
SeasideHR has worked with SmartRecruiters implementations across multiple European enterprise environments. We hold no SmartRecruiters partnership and earn no referral revenue.
