I found the Mindscope team to be generous of their time, patient with their responses, especially given my numerous questions, and customer centered in their approach, all of which made our experience less difficult. The system itself, has helped to move our company in a new more exciting direction. It has allowed us to centralize our processes making our day-to-day a bit less challenging. We now find that we have more time to devote to working on projects that continue to move our company forward. Pros Admittedly, our team are not very tech savvy. However, in a very short time, we were able to maneuver through the job board, parse resumes like a pro, and track an applicant’s progress through our hiring process. These features were extremely impactful to our day-to-day given that we receive hundreds of resumes throughout the year. Mindscope was able to integrate our current business practices easily and allowed us to engage with candidates and our clients in a more efficient and useful way. We can now maintain all of a candidate’s records, notes, and/or documents in one place. We can track a candidate’s progress from start to finish. Best of all, we can protect against human error ensuring that all steps of our process are adhered to by setting up specific requirements in the system. For us, Mindscope is a one stop shop. Cons The company appears very adaptable. However, as we continue to grow, and the need to centralize more and more of our processes, expanding capability for various types of risk assessment investigations/background checks (e.g., education, employment, criminal, federal, and global), that is comparable to leading agencies, and cost efficient, would be beneficial to what we do.

No more Excel spreadsheets, fewer emails and phone call among managers, and reduced (eliminated!) paperwork. We also are starting to see increased recruitment numbers and more potential customers reaching out to us. Pros Mindscope brought us from the dark ages of countless Excel spreadsheets. The staff is quickly available and helpful. Cons We are still learning the various features of the Mindscope software. With each "learning curve" step, the staff has been helpful. I can't think of any item we've "liked least." Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Cons Mobile app and quickbooks web integration is not yet available. Fingers crossed we will have this soon!

Once they do, we can promise that it will be a top priority. DB Derek B. Senior Recruiter Information Technology and Services ### "Great Recruiting software" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 27, 2021 From day one starting with the trial through implementation, customization, training and support. I appreciate the follow up from Mindscope and the speed in answering any questions I have. The Mindscope team is great to work with, something that is getting rarer in today's client landscape Pros The ATS, Job module and CRM are easy to use and with simple personalization become an invaluable tool to get work done efficiently and quickly. The custom workflows that can be setup for your own environment are great. After a reasonably simple setup and customization this product runs extremely well in all aspects Cons Not enough to mention, personally this software does exactly what I need it to Alternatives considered [Bullhorn ATS & CRM](https://www.capterra.com/p/140531/Bullhorn-Recruiting-Software/) [Salesforce Sales Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/61368/Salesforce/) Reasons for choosing Mindscope The top 3 reasons were, functionality, ease of use and price point. I will also say implementation and customization should be part of this as, I work with some people that went through other ATS/CRM implementations and theirs were a lot more challenging and time consuming than the Mindscope implementation.

Vicki P. Crew Coordinator Staffing and Recruiting ### "Recruitment Software" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 26, 2021 I have used the software for almost 10 years with two different companies I have worked for. The second company, I had them purchase it because I loved it so much. It is a great tool for recruitment purposes. Also, the staff has always gone above and beyond to help us with any issue, which have been few and far between. Pros A few of the features I love are: individual candidate profiles, storing of candidate documents, easy to update profiles, link to email to allow for easy upload of resumes and documents. Cons The only issue I have had is that some updates have caused issues. That being said the Technical Support team is always available and quick to rectify any issue. They are very knowledgeable and professional. Reasons for choosing Mindscope When deciding to purchase for NCA, I looked at other software but felt Mindscope was the best choice for us. I was familiar with the software but the upgrades that were made since last using it were excellent. It links to my outlook which makes it easier to determine if a candidate is already in my database and easier for updating their profile.

Pros Ease of use, secure database, up time is crucial, scalability, UI/UX is crisp, trustworthy company Cons Can't use SMS service in South Africa and I do wish there was a Whatsapp and a Telegram API/interface Reasons for choosing Mindscope Uptime, aftersales service, server speed, Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

President Human Resources ### "Underwhelmed" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 March 26, 2020 Great in the beginning horrible after 6 months . Even now with the pandemic we have had to lay off over half our staff - they won't even adjust our payments. I am disgusted with this company. Pros There isn't much. I have used it for over a year now and all of their promises of the product and it's upgrades have not been implemented. Very let let down on the software as a whole. Cons I could write a book on what's wrong with this software. Everything you do on this software is time consuming. They haven't even figured out how to refresh on Indeed weekly without cloning a role. Meaning I spend an hour reposting our roles fresh each Sunday night and your applicants are spread out over several job postings. It's very archaic in its look, it's ease of use and the customer service is terrible. They are great in the beginning and then you are forgotten about. Would not recommend this software. Reasons for choosing Mindscope They said a lot of changes were being made and they could integrate with the assessment tool we use ... 18 months later NOTHING Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Director Human Resources ### "Not a great CRM" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 2/10 March 10, 2020 Do not invest in this CRM Pros I'm struggling to find something. This box has gone red to say i need to write something good, another fault is the SMS crashed it took 50 euros and sent nothing, again Mindscope told us this was our fault, We have been using this function for 5 years but was told this was our fault, then it sent SMS to random people and our office phone was going off the hook with pissed off people getting the same SMS over and over again. People ringing up to unsubscribe, getting people to subscribe is hard enough but having a fault like this should never happen. Cons This CRM will loose you money. Right now as i write this I've 6 people trying to get onto Mindscope and its just not working,This is a weekly thing. It sent emails out to people we didn't wont to send emails too, causing complaints from people on the data base, Now we know how to use this system as we have had it for 5 years now and are on it 12 hours a day. Its not easy to use compared to other CRM systems. It has loads of little faults that will do your head in, One that comes to mind Calibri font, just disappears so when your writing up a job posting of Mindscope and your trying to match your website you cant if you used Calibri. Once the job has been place on the website it doesn't look the same as you made it on Mindscope it looks like a five year old has done it. Its slow and unreliable and we have fast computers and great internet none of our other CRM systems are slow or stop ever, When we contact Mindscope they say its our fault and nothing to do with them, I could go on and let the rest of the team here write their complaints but ill stop now.

Response from Vendor June 15, 2020 Hi Anthony - we're disappointed that you didn't raise these issues until we suspended your account for nonpayment. Then, in spite of our team's many attempts to contact you, we never heard back. Still, we're eager to turn your experience around! While we didn't build your website, there may be 2 solutions to the Calibri question. We provide free access to our API so customers can display jobs on their site any way they like, and we're happy to speak with your web developer to explain the functionality. Regarding text messaging, Mindscope wasn't built to send messages to random people. If you look under My Information you can see a record of all texts that were sent by date and user, which should shed light on what happened. Finally, we have servers in London so that our UK/Ireland clients can enjoy high-speed service, so we're surprised to hear about your speed issues. All of these problems have simple solutions - if you could please get in touch, we're keen to help! NW Neil W.

Mindscope did just that. The current UI is dated but I've seen a demo of the new version and am looking forward to the update. The Mindscope team is very responsive, know their product well and are more than willing to customize for us. Their job posting interface works well. Our jobs are automatically sent to several job boards. Pros Notification to recruiters when a candidate applies Constantly evolving Willingness to customize for us Outstanding support Cons The UI is dated (a new version is coming soon) The creation of too many lists on job openings.
