Paycom sits 13 points above AmazingHiring under rubric v1.0 — 50 against 37 — with Paycom filed under ATS-integrated and AmazingHiring under Sourcing. Paycom leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so AmazingHiring is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Paycom leads is Post-Market Monitoring, AmazingHiring 33 to Paycom 38. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — AmazingHiring 35, Paycom 68 — and at a 20% weight it carries 49% of the weighted advantage Paycom holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Shares are of 13.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -13 beside that -13.4.
