360Learning vs Ashby

360Learning is a corporate learning platform from Paris, founded in 2013 and led by co-founder and CEO Nicolas Hernandez. It raised a $200 million round in 2021 co-led by SoftBank Vision Fund 2. Its core idea is collaborative learning: instead of a small L&D team producing every course, subject-matter experts across the company write and update content while L&D keeps oversight, and learners can comment and request courses.

The product combines an LMS, an LXP layer, customer and partner academies, skills management and AI tools. The AI Content Builder turns existing documents into interactive courses, AI translation localizes them, and recommendations connect learners with courses and internal experts. The Team plan costs $8 per user per month for up to 100 users with no annual commitment; Business and Enterprise are quoted and add flexible user models, advanced integrations and dedicated support. A 30-day trial is available.

It suits mid-sized and large companies with knowledge spread across teams: onboarding, sales enablement, compliance and frontline training. It is not built for selling courses to the public. Docebo is the closest enterprise rival with broader extended-enterprise options, TalentLMS is cheaper and simpler for SMBs, and Thinkific or LearnWorlds fit creators selling courses.

In October 2025 360Learning launched AI Companion, an in-platform assistant that starts with a search mode answering questions from company knowledge. Buying tip: pilot one use case on the monthly Team plan before negotiating a Business contract with HRIS integrations.

Ashby is an all-in-one recruiting platform from a San Francisco startup founded in 2018. It combines an applicant tracking system, a candidate CRM with sourcing, automated interview scheduling and a recruiting analytics engine in a single product. Fast-growing technology companies adopted it because it removed the need for separate tools for scheduling (such as GoodTime), sourcing outreach (such as Gem) and reporting.

Hiring teams get structured pipelines with scorecards, approvals for jobs and offers, email sequences to passive candidates, self-scheduling and panel coordination across interviewer calendars, and AI-assisted application review and interview notes. Analytics are the main differentiator: recruiting ops teams can build custom reports on funnel conversion, time to hire, source quality and interviewer load without exporting data. Pricing scales with company size: the Foundations plan for companies up to 100 employees starts at $400 a month, larger tiers are quoted, and advanced analytics, scheduling and CRM capabilities sit in higher tiers.

Ashby fits companies where hiring is continuous and a dedicated recruiting team exists. Configuration takes effort, and the price is hard to justify for a business hiring a handful of roles a year, where Workable, Homerun or Teamtailor are simpler. Against Greenhouse, Ashby offers stronger built-in analytics and scheduling, while Greenhouse has the larger integration marketplace and a longer enterprise track record. Lever is the other common comparison, with similar ATS plus CRM scope but slower recent innovation.
