What Voyager Software does

Voyager Software is a UK-based provider of cloud-based recruitment software, operating as a brand of Ikiru People Ltd (a private limited company registered in England & Wales, registration number 2043300), which is itself a wholly-owned subsidiary of publicly traded Dillistone Group Plc. Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Basingstoke with regional operations in Australia, the company serves permanent, contract, and temporary recruitment agencies primarily in the UK and Australia across verticals including education, healthcare, construction, hospitality, drivers/logistics, and IT/engineering.

The product portfolio is anchored by Voyager Infinity, a cloud-based SaaS front-office recruitment CRM and ATS that handles candidate sourcing, applicant tracking, skills testing (free for up to 10 candidates per month via the ISV.Online integration), shift planning, compliance management, and AI-assisted workflows through Infinity Copilot. The platform is extended by Voyager Mid-Office (Pay & Bill back-office for timesheets, invoicing, payroll, RTI reporting, and umbrella company support), a Candidate Onboarding Portal (with claimed up to 80% reduction in onboarding time and 87% document auto-verification), Voyager Business Intelligence (Power BI-based dashboards bundled free with SaaS), and Infinity Connect (mobile app). Key integrations span Microsoft (Gold Partner status with Office 365 and Exchange), CV-Library (17 million CVs), Broadbean and LogicMelon (multi-job posting), TrustID (Right to Work), Legalesign (e-signature), and Zapier.

The business model is primarily SaaS subscription delivered cloud-based, with a perpetual licence purchase option introduced in April 2021 to allow agencies to leverage UK government super-deductions on capital investment. Go-to-market combines sales-led enterprise engagement, inside sales for mid-market with 'Book a Demo' CTAs, and product-led growth through free skills testing and free Business Intelligence tooling. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is positioned as the best reviewed recruitment CRM on Trustpilot (Excellent rating) and operates an affiliate partnership with the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC).

Direct peers

• Vincere: Vincere is a cloud recruitment CRM/ATS designed for recruitment agencies, with front-office, back-office, and mobile capabilities similar to Voyager Infinity + Mid-Office. Comparable in targeting mid-market staffing agencies with an emphasis on temp, perm, and contract workflows.
• JobAdder: JobAdder is a cloud-based recruitment CRM/ATS serving recruitment agencies across Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. It is the most direct functional peer to Voyager Software, sharing UK/Australia focus, agency customer base, and SaaS delivery model with integrated ATS/CRM functionality.
• Crelate: Crelate is a recruitment CRM and ATS for search firms, staffing agencies, and in-house recruiting teams. It overlaps with Voyager on agency customer base and CRM/pipeline functionality, though with a stronger emphasis on executive search workflows.
• Recruiterflow: Recruiterflow is a modern recruitment CRM/ATS built for staffing agencies, offering sourcing, pipeline management, and workflow automation. It targets the same agency vertical as Voyager and competes on ease-of-use, automation, and integration breadth for SMB/mid-market recruiters.

Broad incumbents

• iCIMS: iCIMS is a large enterprise talent acquisition platform with ATS, CRM, and candidate experience capabilities. It overlaps with Voyager at the agency-adjacent, multi-sector end of the market and competes on AI roadmap, integration breadth, and global scale.
• Greenhouse: Greenhouse is a leading enterprise ATS with structured hiring, CRM, and onboarding workflows. While its core market is in-house corporate recruiting rather than staffing agencies, it competes for the same AI talent-acquisition dollars and overlaps with Voyager at the upper end of mid-market customers.
• SmartRecruiters: SmartRecruiters is an enterprise talent acquisition suite serving large employers and some staffing organizations. While primarily enterprise-ATS focused, it competes for overlapping mid-market/multi-sector recruitment customers and represents a broader-platform alternative to Voyager's specialist agency offering.
• Bullhorn: Bullhorn is the dominant global provider of recruitment CRM/ATS software for staffing agencies. It serves as the broad incumbent reference point for Voyager, with overlapping temp/perm/contract agency customers but vastly greater scale, broader geographic reach, and deeper enterprise R&D investment.

Emerging players

• Loxo: Loxo is an AI-native talent intelligence and recruitment automation platform for staffing agencies and executive search firms. It overlaps with Voyager Infinity's Infinity Copilot AI capabilities (AI sourcing, automated outreach) and represents the emerging AI-first competitive threat to traditional agency CRMs.
• Workable: Workable is an ATS and sourcing platform used by SMBs and growing companies, including smaller staffing agencies. It overlaps with Voyager at the small-agency end of the market and competes on ease of use, sourcing automation, and pricing transparency.
