Pros With Zoho Recruit you can organize all the talent attraction in one place: from creating the profile descriptions to publishing directly on job offers. Every candidate can be registered including files as CV and comments, notes, data and more. You can configure stages, requirements, departments, reports, dashboards and more. Everything you need to keep you HR area organized. Cons Some fields during configuration can not be removed so maybe you'll have just additional fields that you don't need. Review Source Emin N. Interim Recruitment team member Research Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very good recruitment tool for small or middle-sized companies" December 26, 2019 4.0 While I was at COTRI, I had to replace our HR member for the short term since she was on vacation. In that term, I had a chance to get acquainted with the Zoho Recruit software. If your company is a startup or small size, this software is very useful for recruitment processes such as tracking resumes, scheduling interviews, and job posting on Linkedin or the other famous portals. Pros 1) No complicated functions and easy to go through resumes in the relevant job applications 2) Price for a premium version is very reasonable which brings you additional helpful features 3) Possibility to monitor all the procedures of recruitment through the pipeline structure 4) Very organized data security system which ignores cheating and fraud attempts 5) Exporting and importing resumes within different portals Cons 1) Low quality of the customer service. As I mentioned before in my reviews, overall the customer service of Zoho lack quality 2) The design of the software seems a bit weak and old-fashioned in comparison with the other tools. Can be more colored and attractive 3) There is always a problem in the integration of this software with Microsoft Office 365 Outlook. Review Source //Roland M. SR Partner Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zoho Recruit is a great product scaled to suit a medium to small recruiting shop or internal HR dept" September 23, 2016 5.0 Zoho Recruit is a great product scaled to suit a medium to small recruiting shop or internal HR dept, depending on whether you choose the 3rd party recruiter or corporate recruiter versions. Pros \-Talks to all other Zoho products like CRM, Invoice, Accounting, etc... - Easily integrates with 3rd party tools like Phone Bridge, etc... - Is a great value for the money Cons \- Some features still need to be built out a little further - 3rd party version will not push to Indeed Review Source CT Carol T. Principal Used the software for: ### "Great product; customer service has room for improvement" June 10, 2015 1.0 I am very unhappy with this product. What seemed to be an inexpensive recruitment solution for a small business has turned out to be a huge hassle & inconvenience for me. Training is minimal - and instead of creating and offering a thorough training manual for reference purposes, they simply give you a copy of the demo, which isn't very helpful. The customer service is based out of India, and although I have worked with international customers for 15+ years, I have a very difficult time understanding them. They talk over me, interrupt & speak too quickly with heavy accents. When I called today, I was put on hold & forced to respond to a survey for some sort of free cruise, then an advertisement for some sort of "life line" type product, then back to the advertisement for a free cruise that I do not want. (I hope they are not selling my personal information to these marketers.) THEN, after going through all of that, the system disconnected me! They don't tell you this, but in order to post a job, you have to have a website domain & email address that matches one another. I used a blogspot in the past, but this is not acceptable. So I had to pay GoDaddy to transfer my site to a regular website, buy a new domain name & change my professional email address. This is a HUGE hassle & unexpected expense. And I still can't post my jobs until my new website is designed/launched! Review Source Response from Zoho June 15, 2015 I'm extremely sorry for the bad experience you had with our customer service. Indeed does allow posts from valid domain and not generic email. I'll have a senior person call you to fix the problems that you have with our Zoho Recruit. Regarding training, yes we are in the process of having a formal training manual other than the online help documents & FAQ's. If you did not find our help docs useful, please let us know where we failed, which would help us to improve. Also, I would like to know which phone number did you call to reach us? We never promote any advertisement while the call is on hold or queue. In fact, we don't want our customers to be bothered with ads and that's one reason you don't see any ads in any of our Free Products Editions as well. Once again, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience and please be assured that you are personal information & your data is safe. We don't resell/distribute. Will wait to hear from you on on the phone number you try to reach us. KV Kumutha V. Team lead Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best software for recruiting purpose " December 24, 2022 5.0 Almost 6 months using this software for recruiting purpose. highly recommend this to everyone Pros Mostly i liked here is posting jobs on online and finding the resumes and application tracking and email management Cons I don't have anything to say here overall it's really amazing and easy to use and its helps my job lot Review Source CD Chris D. President Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An excellent, affordable CRM for the budget conscious recruiter" October 14, 2021 5.0 Overwhelmingly positive. Customer service is responsive if you have a bug or a request. Pros Very easy to use interface, intuitive, cost effective and pairs perfectly with a variety of cloud based platforms (OneDrive, etc.) Cons Boy, I really don't have anything bad to say about Zoho. It's been absolutely perfect for what I use. Reason for choosing Zoho Recruit Zoho was referred to me by a couple of trusted colleagues. Review Source Peter F. Co-Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Bringing Applicant Tracking Systems to the Masses" July 23, 2019 4.0 Pros Most companies between 2 - 50 employees are never going to sniff an applicant tracking system (too expensive, takes too long to set up, not REALLY a need). Zoho Recruit comes bundled with Zoho One, and gives us everything we need to drive more applicants to our positions. Quick posting to job boards Solid assessments Powerful workflow automations (it's built like Zoho CRM) Cons The job board connections can be a little finicky sometimes. I wish the iFrame options were a little more straightforward for embedding your job listings on your site. Review Source CF Chris F. Director of Operations Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "For the right needs, an incredible value" July 22, 2018 4.0 If you need a UI-centric place to store data, and you are on a budget, I can't imagine you'd find a better place. For us, this was the necessary stepping stone for between Excel and when we had enough revenue to license a proper CRM/ATS. Basically: I was very happy we did this for 18 months, but when it was time to leave it was a relief. Pros Zoho is very user friendly, very customizable, and extremely affordable. We were able to add and delete fields almost everywhere we wanted to, and I felt that the navigation and search functionality were very user friendly - required not much training. Cons The monthly (which I couldn't find anywhere else for a comparable product) price is allowed - near as I could tell - by the lack of support. It didn't make me too angry because you can't have a CRM at this price without sacrificing something, but you should know up front support basically doesn't exist. Also, there isn't much functionality around tracking activity - so be aware of that before you buy. Review Source Anthony S. Managing Director and Founder Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Overall a great product, fast and easy to use, with great customization options" February 2, 2017 5.0 I have tried much different recruitment software during the last 5 years or so, and most of them I have not really liked to use because they are just too complex and actually take up more time than they save. I want to be doing everything fast, and not entering much into boxes or clicking my mouse around all day. Zoho keeps everything simple, plus you can change the different panels and boxes so that what you see is what you need! It's parsing of CV's and Linked In profiles is top notch. Also, the ability to import spreadsheets seamlessly into Zoho is great, it saved me lots of time as opposed to other software systems. Although I like the way everything is laid out, I think the design could be made a bit more futuristic, with a bit more color etc. Also, it would be good if Linked In profiles could be parsed with just one click on the Chrome app, instead of having to copy and paste everything. In addition, it would be good if you could then add these Linked In profiles to a certain job vacancy that you have like I have used on other software systems. Pros Layout Value Ease of use Functions Easy to use mobile app that puts all info at fingertips Cons Design could be improved Did not receive a reply to question for 2 days (though it was quite a complex one) Review Source TC Tushar C. IT Recruiter Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Zoho Recruit - Review" July 14, 2022 5.0 The experience is great, It is easy to use, make recruitment process easy, help us to complete the entire process as per the requirement and need. Pros It is very easy to use and have great tracking features to simplify the recruitment process. It helps the recruitment process more easier and efficient. It help in the selection process of the new candidates and help us to save the time in completing the entire recruitment process. Cons There is nothing that I dislike about this software. But if I find anything that can be improve I will share it with the team. Review Source DN Danica N. Systems Manager Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It is easy to use, but customer service is lacking" September 28, 2021 3.0 It was a good 5 years, but the lack of service and the useless database search results meant we had to go. Pros The software is easy to use, easy to add and manage candidates and track interviews and notes. Cons The customer service is sloooowwww to follow up and usually do not understand the original question. Issues took days to weeks to resolve.

June 5, 2018 5.0 Pros Pros: very use UI, user-friendly, Easy to maintain the recodes of the new and old employee. And the ZOHO Product is a chip for small or medium level organisations Cons Sometimes down, but usually fixed quickly, incorporate a functionality to manage tempory contacts., CV radius location search doesn't save information except when connected online. Review Source Dawn F. Executive director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Features, But..." December 10, 2019 4.0 Our nonprofit is small so every minute is valuable. We tried Zoho as a trial because the rep who introduced the software to us assured it would maximize productivity and relieve stress. Pros Zoho has many good features that simplify the Hr recruiting process. One great benefit is the resume tracking tool, this is especially useful when one wants to go back to a prime candidate’s info. Another great feature is the automated recruitment ability. This is an often hit trigger for me because of my many other responsibilities. Cons The customer support from this company is horrible. The company needs to do some serious TQM because there is great potential in the software, but still the best. Review Source KADir T. manager Automotive Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Zoho Recruit" December 18, 2022 5.0 I'm happy to be a user of this programme, which is helping a lot to manage our HR works Pros I like all HR candidate and talent management is capable to be done with this programme Cons Would be good to see cost of employee + side benefits to see what will be hiring + workign cost in 1 year as an example. Review Source Morten F. Partner Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zoho recruit" June 8, 2017 5.0 Pros The best think about zoho is the user interface combined with the database flexibility, you can basically set up the system in any configuration you like, and you can do it on the fly, so if you later realised you missed a field or table at the initial setup you just add to the platform and it still work, brilliant. Review Source SD Souleymane D. Recruiter Mining & Metals Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The software you need for your recruitment processes." August 31, 2023 3.0 From my experience, Zoho Recruit has still allowed me to save time in organizing job postings and candidates. It's a good software overall. Pros Zoho Recruit allows me to manage the entirety of my recruitment process. It helps me create job postings, schedule interviews, sort candidates, and more. The automation feature for certain tasks is also a major plus. Cons I didn't like the analysis and reporting provided by Zoho Recruit for evaluating the recruitment process, which I found less effective. Switched from [SmartRecruiters](https://www.capterra.com/p/123833/SmartRecruiters/)[BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/)[JazzHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/87750/JazzHR/)[Greenhouse](https://www.capterra.com/p/133100/Greenhouse/) I switched to other software because I couldn't find what I was looking for in Zoho. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: ### "Zoho Recruit" October 20, 2016 5.0 Great product overall. Easy to use. Great features consistent with most brand name apps... for about half the price. I use Recruit as a sole practitioner. The startup time from from signup to data entry was about 10 minutes. Very simple and easy to configure, yet highly customizable. No long term commitment. Pros Easy to configure and access via cloud services. Very happy with the monthly investment although a close contender is bullhorn. However, there is more third party app integration with Zoho under the standard plan whereas Bullhorn requires a premium package. Cons If you are a larger agency requiring serious customization or integration, you may need to consider a more robust, stand alone application. Moreover, you will inevitably require some degree of support and therefore a larger, more singular application might be your best bet. Review Source JM Jonathan M. Director Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use and integrate recruitment software" June 8, 2017 4.0 Increased visability across all avenues of candidate sourcing, ability to automate a large portion of the recruitment process... this increases daily with smart additons Zoho makes every day (almost). Additionally the main aspect that is great is the ability to run geographically distributed teams. Pros Cost of using the software is minimal, however still offers everything you would expect from a much more expensive program. Overall the system manages everything from adverts through to candidates and is continually evolving to become one of the easiest to use softwares I have used to date. Cons Can be cumbersome in some areas initially, like reporting, dashboards etc. however it is fully customizable so once you have that in hand it pretty much covers everything. It would be great to have a more direct integration into Linkedin, with Linkedin actually operating through Zoho, however believe this is something that they are working on at the moment. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Recruitment Specialist Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Being Recruiter" December 13, 2018 5.0 Overall it is good software and worthy software. Person need to understand the software and then they can use it very simply. It's user interface is good. Pros Zoho Recruit is a must have software on every recruiter's computer. As this software gives us ease to search the profiles and also to track the profile as it works as an applicant tracking system. Which is very beneficial to check out the status of the candidate, to know about the interview and other activities. Cons This software is fabulous and only faces some issues with the weak network. Also you have to check everytime the status of candidate because it may be changed before you see that. Review Source MA Musa A. Director Used the software for: ### "My experience with post 30 days" June 28, 2017 4.0 Pros I must say that during the short time use of this tool, the way this lets you organize recruitment process for a company is cool. No matter if have this for your own company or recruitment agency it is sure to create a clutter free and organized structure to your recruitment process flows. Cons I am a huge user of the Indeed job portal, love the way indeed lets you get what you want simply. the main reason I choose Zoho recruit was due to its Indeed integration. Although I quickly learned that the integration has a few limitations. If you are looking to contact Candidates in Indeed via Zoho by sending a blast email or something similar well then you will realize it is not as simple as that. indeed.com does not provide candidates direct contact information(email or Phone) you will need to pay money for each contact which is okay they got to make money rite, but you can send up to 50 contacts in one go via the indeed.com website huge plus if you are recruitment agency filter the people you want to contact and send. Here is my hiccup with the ZOHO integration of indeed you can send a blast similar to the one I mentioned above instead you will have to open each indeed resumes that is visible in Zoho and send a contact huge productive drop for me. I hope ZOHO and Indeed create a smoother way to do this. I would love if Zoho could allow us to send a blast too similar to how it can be done on indeed.com this way I can load up my credit in Indeed and manage that via ZOHO. Review Source JB Jimmy B. CEO Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent Recruitment Software" September 15, 2016 5.0 Ability to link candidates with clients for the entire recruitment life cycle. As a company we can effectively manage the candidate experience and respond faster. We have linked Zoho Recruit to our career page hence we do not have to receive resumes by email which makes us work smarter and reduces time. Pros The formatted resume functionality is fantastic as it helps us format resumes and brand them to send to clients all within the Zoho ATS, we can post to our company careers page, Facebook and twitter page. We have the ability to send feedback to candidate real time and also give the client opportunity to shortlist from the system which really makes our job easier. The software is very flexible and easy for us to upgrade or downgrade depending on number of users especially as the recruitment business is a very high turnover business. Cons I wish Zoho Recruit can incorporate a functionality to help manage temporary/contract staffing. Review Source KI Kumaresan I.
