What is iCIMS?

iCIMS adds recruiting how-tos to its feed; still no product news

The crawled iCIMS feed carries titles and a single boilerplate line per post, so the signal is in the headlines. The newest two are recruiting-education pieces on funnel metrics and hiring bottlenecks, alongside the monthly iCIMS Insights Workforce Reports and jobs-data commentary from September and October.

What is Miter?

Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field

Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.

iCIMS vs Miter: editorial side-by-side

I5.0

iCIMS adds recruiting how-tos to its feed; still no product news

◆ Current state

The crawled iCIMS feed carries titles and a single boilerplate line per post, so the signal is in the headlines. The newest two are recruiting-education pieces on funnel metrics and hiring bottlenecks, alongside the monthly iCIMS Insights Workforce Reports and jobs-data commentary from September and October.

◆ Where it's heading

The feed is a content-marketing channel built around hiring data and buyer education, not release notes. The November posts shift from labor-market commentary toward process advice aimed at recruiting teams, which reads as top-of-funnel marketing rather than any product move.

◆ Prediction

Expect the November Workforce Report and more recruiting how-tos; the feed gives no basis for predicting product releases.

M5.0

Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field

◆ Current state

Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.

◆ Where it's heading

After the summer's Accounts Payable module and API 2.0, and October's Project Intelligence budgets, Miter is tying field activity back to job costing. Material logs feeding budgets and activity-driven GL coding both point toward Miter as the system of record for job cost, not only payroll.

◆ Prediction

Expect more field data sources to post into job costing and Project Intelligence, since November connects materials and activities to the GL.
