OpenJobRadar alternative: JobNotify vs OpenJobRadar

OpenJobRadar alternative: both products email you when a company you choose posts a matching role on its careers page. We make JobNotify. OpenJobRadar is the one to pick if “free, and as many companies as I want” is the whole point.

The OpenJobRadar details below are from their own site: the homepage, pricing, how it works, and new-job notifications, copied 2 Sep 2026. Plans move. If a number is the reason you would switch, check it there before you do.

The pricing page says “It's free.” A FAQ mentions that faster scans, Slack, and teams might show up later, while the core stays on a large free tier. No pound price, because the dollar price is $0.
Check cadenceFree every 24 hours. Starter every 8 hours (protected n/a). Pro every 4 hours (protected every 24 hours). Super every hour (protected every 24 hours).The homepage talks about daily scans and an alert within 24 hours.

Where OpenJobRadar has the edge

  • Their public pricing page says the product is free. Unlimited companies, keyword filters, email alerts, and the hiring platforms they connect to, with no card and no paid tier listed.
  • They also show an application pipeline, the Kanban board kind, inside that free plan, plus a way to scan a company yourself whenever you feel like it.

Where JobNotify has the edge

  • Paid plans look at standard company pages more often than the free plan, which checks every 24 hours.
  • Protected job boards, the ones that need a real browser, are on Pro (1) and Super (5). Free and Starter include 0.

So, which one?

Want every company you can think of, at no charge, and a daily look is fast enough? OpenJobRadar is the straightforward pick. Have a shorter list, and want it checked more often, including a protected job board? That is the JobNotify side of this.

FAQ

Is JobNotify an OpenJobRadar alternative?
Yes, if you want a shorter list checked more often than every 24 hours, including a protected job board on Pro or Super. OpenJobRadar is the better fit when you want unlimited companies at no charge. Both sets of facts come from each product’s public pages.
Is JobNotify a clone of OpenJobRadar?
No. Both watch careers pages. The plans, how often they look, and whether protected job boards are included are different. Read both sites before you pick.
Can I watch any company?
On JobNotify, a public careers page whose robots.txt allows automated checks. Protected job boards, the ones that need a browser and do not disallow us, sit on a separate, smaller cap.
Where should I verify OpenJobRadar facts?
https://openjobradar.com/pricing and https://openjobradar.com/how-it-works. We copied the public wording on 2 Sep 2026.
