OpenCATS is a free and open source applicant tracking system (ATS) with full features. OpenCATS is created by a community of developers designed for people who do recruiting, including recruiting firms and HR departments within organizations. Its main task is to organize and track the entire recruiting process for the organization.

OpenCATS can be used by recruiters to manage their work, customize and extend it. There are no charges for installing or using OpenCATS, the original software CATS is a commercial product which is highly polished but OpenCATS which is free has less functionality. OpenCATS is installed for free on servers of the users who support it and can dig into the codes and customize it and can share the changes back to the community.

OpenCATS helps recruiters to fill a job or two in a year and is suitable for small and enterprise sized environments, for a single to hundreds of users. There is no free tracking system compared to OpenCAT, unlike other free ATS that are track on excel sheets and store resumes on hard drives, OpenCAT offers data security and privacy because the system is self-hosted by the owners who has fully responsible for the data security.

OpenCATS enables control of data security and critical recruiting information. However, because OpenCATS is free it can be cumbersome for bulk recruiting processes due to limit in recruiting features compared to the commercial version. OpenCATS has some prohibited activities like importing when dealing with many candidates. Some of the tasks managed by openCATS include candidate details, qualifications, resumes and contact history, job order details, associated contacts and candidate pipeline for reach and multiple recruiters, sites, career portals and more.
