Who uses Octo ATS - HR, in-house recruiters and recruiting line managers across all industry sectors.
NEOGOV is a one-stop HR suite designed to streamline everyday HR processes within public sector organizations.
The reporting is good and constantly being improved with dashboards and visuals that allow us to measure how successful recruitment is.
Very little to dislike about the Octo platform.
The software captures the approval sign off process very effectively. Once a vacancy is approved, the process to then turn it into an advert is seamless.
It can take a bit of getting used to and took a while to get up and running, there was particular struggles around integrating our WordPress website but it was achieved in the end.
I like the dashboard, as a SuperUser in charge of recruitment for my organisation, it gives me a great overall snapshot but also the ability to drill down to really interrogate our data which I love.
Love the way it gives a summary page and really like the fact we can adapt the applications to suit us. The new automatic emailing for a new user set up is fantastic and saves us time.
Insight has been the biggest help to our university. The ease and accuracy we can move people through the process has been a great help.
The application can run slow at times, making it frustrating for administrators and end-users to use.
The customer service has been great; training has been very useful; the quarterly user conference calls are helpful.
The "look" of the site is tired and could use updating.
The product itself is incredibly user friendly and flexible to use. The potential of the product is outstanding in its ability to manage candidates as well as recruitment campaigns etc.
Reporting can be difficult for those who don't understand table structure and sql script. Transfer of knowledge for system design is an extended process.
So far the implementation has been great, [sensitive content hidden] is very knowledgeable, kind, and helpful.
Define exactly what you need from your HRIS system, then look for programs that meet your needs. Don't judge by cost alone.
Jason: Hi, my name is Jason. I am a Lieutenant. I give NEOGOV a five out of five. And for more reviews like this, please click below. I work in the government industry, and obviously we need a streamlined approach to recruiting, hiring, and onboarding of new employees. And NEOGOV has really helped bring that all together in a very streamlined process. What I like most about NEOGOV is the fact that it is cloud based. We no longer have to keep a huge amount of paper files on hand for new applicants and job processes. We're able to manage a lot of the stuff in the cloud. It's easily accessible if we have employees working remote and handling background checks and setting up parts of the testing process, and it really helps out on that end. I really don't have much to say in the negative aspect about NEOGOV. I was not part of the decision making process to bring that on to our organization, and I really didn't have much training provided to me when I started using NEOGOV, but it was rather an easy system and program to pick up on my own, and really has helped save us some time and provided some different ways to access recruiting and testing materials for remote workers.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
