§ The result
Cegid leads micro1 on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Cegid scores 45 and micro1 36 under rubric v1.0, a 9-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Screening cohorts. Cegid leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so micro1 is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Cegid leads is Human Oversight Design, Cegid 55 to micro1 48. Customer Documentation is the widest raw gap (Cegid 62, micro1 45) but not the heaviest weighted swing, which is Bias Audit Transparency at 18% (Cegid 30, micro1 20), 20% of the weighted advantage Cegid builds across the 6 criteria it leads.
Vendor profile
Cegid
Cegid's HR suite offers two recruiting lines: Cegid HR Talent Acquisition (ex-DigitalRecruiters), an ATS/CRM with CV parsing, scorecards, automated scoring and an AI conversational agent that pre-qualifies candidates on career sites and WhatsApp, and Cegid Talentsoft (now sold as Cegid HR Suite) recruiting, whose 'Recruiting Match' matches positions to candidates algorithmically.
Vendor profile
micro1
Zara, micro1's LLM-based AI interviewer, runs recorded, adaptive spoken interviews (with optional coding exercises and automated proctoring) and returns per-skill proficiency ratings, soft-skill ratings and a proctoring score; micro1 uses it to certify experts for its own AI-training talent network, and employers can use it through a client portal and API.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +8.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +9 beside that +8.8.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
