Loxo vs. Crelate
Loxo has been at the forefront of recruitment technology innovation since 2012, consistently setting the standard for what a modern Talent Intelligence Platform should be. Because we believe modern recruiters need more than a “better ATS” in order to remain competitive in a rapidly changing market.
While Crelate may seem like a viable option for small staffing firms, it falls short when it comes to advanced features, customization, and scalability. From an intuitive user interface and powerful AI-driven sourcing to robust automation capabilities and seamless integrations, Loxo offers a truly comprehensive solution that Crelate simply can’t match.
Why choose Loxo over Crelate?
Let's dive into some key differentiators between the two platforms.
“I invest hundreds of hours researching recruiting tech and Loxo is absolutely light years ahead.”
— Tim Sackett, Top 10 Global HR Influencers

At Loxo, we don’t just respond to market trends – we set them. Our commitment to innovation means you’re always working with cutting-edge tools designed to give you a competitive edge. Crelate has completely stopped innovating, while Loxo continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in recruitment technology.
