Can we keep JobAdder for back-office and use Vitae for front-office?

Yes. Vitae two-way syncs with JobAdder. Many APAC agencies start with this hybrid setup, then collapse to Vitae fully once back-office integrations close the gap.

How fast is the migration?

Most APAC agencies are migrated within 2 weeks, including parallel-running with JobAdder for the first 30 days.

01The bottom line/ in one paragraph

02Why teams switch/ 4 reasons

Why teams move from JobAdder to Vitae.

Agents replace 50%+ of manual work

Sourcing, screening, and outreach are all run by agents. JobAdder is a database; Vitae is a database plus a working team of agents.

AI screening (chat + async video)

First-round screens at scale, scored against your rubric. JobAdder relies on third-party for this.

Sub-second loads, keyboard-first. JobAdder is mature but feels its age.
