Lever is the only platform that provides talent acquisition leaders with a complete applicant tracking system (ATS) and candidate relationship management (LeverCRM) platform in a single solution.
I like how user-friendly it is and easy to navigate around. I like the interface, very appealing to the eye.
Rippling is a frustrating and disappointing suite of software for the staff-user to say the least. I've had 8 different issues with Rippling administering the HSA/FSA in the last 365 days.
I love the automatic reports showing employee birthdays and anniversaries, the happy feeling of You've Been Paid, the ease of requesting and approving PTO.
All the other apps have all these additional feature requirements and they're expensive. All I need is a simple check-in, check-out and trying to find that in the app store has been miserable.
Our experience has been fantastic. From our product quote stage, through implementation and rollout to managing the system we have not encountered an issue that could not be quickly resolved.
Slow response times from implementation led to a delayed launch of the system. We had multiple data import issues that wasted time because they did not clarify the data that needed to be provided.
The Details that the application gives you regarding payroll is superb and the functionality of integrating apps is fantastic.
I was surprised to find out that we were working with the head of the implementation team because of how poor our experience was.
Ideal solution for searching the best talent & applying fair criteria to select the best candidates.
I was so mad when I switched companies and they discontinued using Lever.
We've been so pleased with the support team at Lever. As we switch/transition from Google Hire, they've been incredibly helpful to make sure this is a seamless and stress-free process.
Emails Part 2 - Entire threads of email conversations do not appear in Lever. They are missing so again we have to cut & paste entire conversations to place in the profile.
I love the ease of use, the simplicity, the ability to configure it to our needs. Also the team is fantastic.
That was the main thing missing from the product.
The interface is seamless and very user friendly. The reporting capability is great and allows you to accurately track and report on the status of applicants, and pipelines.
Sometimes I get a little stuck and won't be able to find a person, or permissions don't seem equal across the board.
Shawn M.: Hello, my name is Shawn. I'm the owner and managing broker of X2 Mortgage. We focus primarily on residential and commercial mortgage lending. When it comes to Rippling, I would give it a three out of five stars. Prior to using Rippling, we were really just running everything off of QuickBooks Online. We are a very small company, so there isn't a great comparison between the two. However, QuickBooks was great for running a company with five or less employees. We were able to run payroll out of there and do everything from that, but it wasn't great for kind of onboarding, offboarding and doing multiple payroll runs maybe weekly. So we simplified everything from a company level when we were using QuickBooks. There was a switch to Rippling because we are a growing company, we are onboarding a lot of people very quickly. We are also offboarding a lot of people because we have a high turnover in our industry, and we needed something where we can offboard and onboard a lot easier. So we decided to go with Rippling, mainly because of the fact that it had a really great tech stack. It integrated with a lot of our existing services that we use. We're able to quickly send out an offer letter to a candidate, have them sign it, and immediately start the onboarding process where we could just have one person running HR. They could run all the payroll, they can do everything very streamlined and very efficiently. The onboarding and integrating with Rippling, it was pretty easy for the most part. They have phenomenal tech stack. When it came to onboarding someone, you really just went through the prompts, get it all kind of sent out to that person. In terms of the existing stuff that we worked with in terms of the integrations, we were using pretty much everything off of Google Workspace. So being able to create their accounts as soon as someone's onboarded or suspend their account as soon as someone's offboarded was really great, and Rippling does make that incredibly easy. Anyone considering going with Rippling, if you do have a high turnover rate or you're constantly hiring or firing people, I think it's phenomenal for offboarding and onboarding. It makes things extremely efficient. You don't need a huge HR development to handle all that. Our HR manager can onboard someone in a matter of 30 minutes, so it's really great for that reason. I will say that if you're looking for a little more hands-on, Rippling's probably not your option. They don't have the best support at all. So if you're not very tech savvy, you're not really going to be able to get your system set up perfectly, and you could schedule time with them, or you could reach out to their support or submit a ticket. But in terms of some of the other competitors in the space, their support is lacking tremendously. So I will say this is definitely for someone who is very tech savvy and who wants to kind of do everything on their own and have everything automated on their own. However, if you need more of that hand holding, I don't think Rippling is necessarily the route for you.
Jennifer R.: My name is Jennifer. I'm an analyst. I rate Lever four out of five. And for more reviews like this, click below. We use Lever as a recruiting tool. So if I wanted to refer someone, I would go into Lever, put their resume in, or send them a referral link. It made it super easy for me to refer people and track the status of their application. The thing I like the most about the software is it was so easy to use, searching the jobs that were available at my company was really easy. And the user interface from the application side of things was very easy to use. However, what I didn't like about lever is there wasn't a lot of data that I could look at. It was difficult to see how my referrals were stacking up against other people. And I would've just like to have seen little bit more data analytics from it.
