### "Good platform - does what it needs to "

August 2, 2025

4.0

Overall it’s good - we considered alternatives that had better HR ability and payroll intergrations but ended up sticking with Workable for value for money.

Pros

It’s great for hiring - I like how it Integrates with job boards. Seamless ability to move candidates through the pipeline and ability to create interview kits and amend workflow is great.

Cons

Ai feature on assessing cvs needs work - often inaccurate scoring. Being able to arrange interviews for 20 minutes would also be better rather than 15 and 30. Making it more clear when an applicant has applied before would be better too.

### "Efficient, Intuitive, and Game-Changing for Hiring!"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Pros

Workable has made our hiring process more professional and efficient. The ability to post to multiple job boards with one click is a huge time-saver, and the candidate tracking system keeps everything organized. We’ve received compliments from applicants about how smooth the process is on their end too. Highly recommend for growing teams!

Cons

One area for improvement is the pricing structure—it can be a bit steep for smaller teams or startups, especially if you're scaling quickly. However, the value it brings in terms of time saved and process efficiency still makes it a worthwhile investment. If you're looking for a reliable, scalable, and modern recruitment solution, I highly recommend giving Workable a try. It’s been a fantastic asset for our team!

Pros

\- UX - very easy to use with minimal or no training for new users - Team Collaboration - Value for money - User Interface

Cons

\- Features - E-offers: you have to manualy edit the template in google docs/word, download it and upload it in Workable settings. In case you want to edit the template, you can't do it through Workable but from google docs/word and download /upload it again - LinkedIn Recruiter Integration -The % profile matches scored by AI is not accurate

### "Workable works well – just make sure that their features fit your needs, because they're inflexible when it comes to requests"

July 31, 2025

4.0

Pros

Workable has a well-thought-out structure that covers most use cases that our company needs. The website works well, mostly without any bugs, the user interface is clean, and it makes it relatively easy for our team to manage our applicants, even for those of us who are not tech-savvy. We have never had any issues with the safety of our data, as the website gives us varied security features to grant different privilege levels to our team members, and as far as we're informed, there have never been any leaks. The features for team collaboration are decent enough to support most of our needs, though they don't fully cover all of our needs.

Cons

When it comes to the value for the money we invest in the website, I'd say we're considerably disappointed. Workable has introduced many new features, none of which have had any utility for the work we do. When we contacted the customer support, they tend to be friendly and reply quickly, but many of our requests have not been solved, and some of them have been flat-out denied – disappointing considering the high the high investment in terms of money. They've stated that our team's traffic on their website is unlike any of their other clients, and yet, they haven't made any effort to implement very simple features that we requested, such as making a form mandatory.

### "Workable has all the required functionality for a small business"

August 5, 2025

5.0

Pros

My favourite thing about Workable is that it is so easy to use, which makes it a lot easier for me to educate our hiring managers on the platform and also ensure that best practice is followed throughout our recruitment process.

Cons

There is nothing really that comes to mind, but sometimes I find that the Workable extension for sourcing candidates via LinkedIn doesn't work smoothly.

### "Must-have recruiting platform"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Best companion with Linkedin to direct candidates to complete a job application within minutes (if not seconds) and follow up with recruiters right away. From employer perspective, super easy to track the status and talent pool for each role/channel.

Pros

The easiness to search within the platform by key words (candidate name, role, etc.) and followup directly within the platofrm and via integration with outside platform e.g. G-suite.

Cons

none. But i do hope that in the near future they could come up with an advanced feature to produce all Workable records re a certain candidate into a separate folder for the purpose of record keeping. For now, we can only perform key word search and print the pages searched. Neverthess less it is a very rare request.

### "Does the basics!"

July 1, 2025

4.0

Workable has been a reliable, easy-to-use ATS that covers the core needs of day-to-day recruitment—especially for managing active pipelines and collaborating with hiring managers. The platform is clean, intuitive, and works well for reactive hiring with clear visibility over candidates’ progress. However, its limitations become more obvious at scale or when trying to move toward a more proactive, data-driven, or automated recruitment model. Reporting is only powerful when paired with BI tools, and it lacks flexibility for talent pooling, CRM-style outreach, and custom workflows per region. This creates manual workarounds and slows down strategic initiatives like internal mobility, long-term candidate engagement, or region-specific hiring processes.

Pros

Clean, intuitive UI for both recruiters and hiring managers. Visual hiring stages help you track progress easily. Email and texting features allow you to message candidates directly in-platform. Templates save time and ensure consistency across outreach.

Cons

Limited Reporting Functionality (Without BI Add-On) Native reports are quite basic and not very flexible. We rely on the BI data link + Power BI to get deeper insights, which adds complexity and cost. Interview scheduling, especially for multi-stage panels or group interviews, can be clunky.

### "Workable has completely transformed our hiring process — and \[sensitive content hidden\] has been instrumental every step of the way!""

August 5, 2025

5.0

Fast, intuitive onboarding for both recruiters and hiring managers. Powerful automation and AI sourcing features. Transparent analytics for recruitment improvements. Standout customer service and expert support from \[sensitive content hidden\]

Pros

We've been using Workable for almost 2 years, and it’s become a core part of our recruitment strategy. From the very start, it's clear that Workable was designed with teams like ours in mind — intuitive, ease of implementation, feature‑rich, great candidate sourcing capabilities, and built to scale. If you’re looking for an applicant tracking system that helps you hire faster, collaborate effortlessly, and grow with confidence, Workable is a standout choice. And when you're supported by an account executive as thoughtful and proactive as \[sensitive content hidden\], it becomes a truly powerful recruitment partner. Thanks, Workable—and big kudos to \[sensitive content hidden\] for being such a positive force behind our success!

Cons

Reporting filters could be more granular (e.g. candidate application date filters) Despite these minor issues, the benefits far outweigh them — especially with support from someone like \[sensitive content hidden\].

### "Your Partner in Recruiting "

August 1, 2025

4.0

Workable is a great partner on ATS and Recruitment. It has advance features in Video recording Interview that helps us on both technical and communication level since we are hiring from different parts of the world.

Pros

There are several features that stand-out that I absolutely Loooveee - Approvals for both Job requisition and Job Offer, Video interview and Job posting to different recruitment channels

Cons

I think Workable needs to work on their Reports and "Approving on behalf" feature for Executive levels

### "Workable - an intuitive ATS solution"

August 1, 2025

5.0

Easy to track the data and the processes, super intuitive because just by navigating for a few minutes you will learn how to use Workable.

Pros

Workable is an intuitive ATS, where you can easily integrate it with other tools, such as LinkedIn Recruiter. It provides different reports, and you can also customize it connecting the database to a reporting tool you use. Easy to track the progress of the candidates, sharing information with the hiring team, it\`s an everyday tool that helps us in recruiting to keep track of our processes and pipelines. When I needed help to get access to the database, the customer support team helped in an efficient and fast way.

Cons

Even though there's some customization on the reports, the reporting features could be still more advanced.

### "Workable is working for us."

July 31, 2025

4.0

We migrated from a different system two years ago but went back to Workable, as it's better than the others that we have tried.

Pros

It's easy to use and helps streamline our hiring application process. The features are also easy to use and helpful in filtering and categorizing the applicants in our hiring streams.

Cons

It takes getting used to when you're new to it, as navigating the screens and features can be a bit confusing.

5.0

Pros

I like how intuitive and easy to use Workable is, especially for teams with varying levels of tech experience. The collaborative features—like commenting, evaluating candidates, and managing workflows—make it seamless to involve hiring managers and HR in every step of the process. The integration with job boards and the ability to post with a few clicks is also a huge time-saver in addition to great customer support, security and value of money

Cons

The implementation was amazing and super quick, the team were super friendly the whole time. The customer service since has been really good and they regularly reach out for feedback and to help.

Pros

Ease of use and very user friendly. Adding new team members, posting jobs and reviewing candidates is really easy

Cons

Not being able to block applicants from countries we do not work in, these candidates are desperate and cannot get visa's or require sponsorship and lie to get their applications in

### "My #1 Fave ATS"

August 7, 2025

5.0

Pros

Workable is super intuitive and easy to use. As someone who is a "visual learner" I find the layout in the Jobs dashboard to be very easy to follow and understand. Integrations with our HRIS system and Outlook Calendar are an added bonus for us. Being able to customize offer letters and put them through here instead of Word docs has also been a game changer for efficiency in our team. This is an everyday use program for me as I lead TA at our company. I couldn't trade it for the world! I love it.

Cons

I think Workable could go farther with their feature development for automations. The templates / auto-emails work well and are easy to set-up but I wish they could be further customized with "if/then" logic for more personalized, specific triggering. This would be a noteworthy enhancement to an already gorgeous product!

Workable is easy to use and very user friendly. Once you connect your job board account to the system, it's super easy to post jobs.

Pros

### "Talent Acquisition Specialist"

August 1, 2025

5.0

I believe this is a minor issue: For example, when I send out the email inviting candidates to self schedule a phone screen on Monday, I usually select the first available slot starting from the next day: Tuesday, to have time for preparation. However, if the candidate responds to the email on a later date, for example on Tuesday morning, they are still able to book a slot on the same day, for example at 10:30 AM, even if they replied at 10:00 AM. This sometimes results in very short notice time for me to prepare for the call. Ideally, the platform would recalculate the first available day based on when the candidate opens or responds to the email, so if they reply on Tuesday, the earliest they could schedule would be Wednesday.

Pros

user-friendly and well-structured. The candidate pipeline view is intuitive, and the collaboration features, like internal comments and evaluation forms are really streamline our hiring process. The integration with outlook, teams and scheduling tools is great.

Cons

It would be great to have more customizable regarding report and/or analytics. The candidate search feature could be more precise because sometimes keyword searches bring up irrelevant results or miss good matches.

### "Streamlined recruitment across international teams"

August 11, 2025

4.0

Workable has greatly streamlined our hiring process, making collaboration across (international) teams effortless and providing a secure, centralised platform for tracking candidates.

Pros

Workable makes it incredibly easy to collaborate across different (international) teams, keeping all recruitment-related tasks, communication, and candidate information in one central place. This has significantly improved our efficiency and reduced the risk of missing important updates.

Cons

While the automated responses feature is useful, the different scenarios are not yet fully aligned, which makes it challenging to use them consistently and correctly without manual adjustments.

August 7, 2025

5.0

y overall experience has been excellent. Workable has helped us reduce time-to-hire, improve coordination across international teams, and deliver a better experience to both candidates and internal stakeholders. It’s a reliable tool that grows with your team’s needs.

Pros

Workable makes it incredibly easy to manage a large number of open roles and candidates in one place. The user interface is clean and intuitive, collaboration with hiring managers is seamless, and the automation features (email templates, interview scheduling, etc.) save a lot of time. I also appreciate the integration with job boards and LinkedIn.

Cons

The reporting capabilities could be more robust—while the existing analytics are helpful, they lack flexibility for deeper custom insights. Also, the mobile experience could be improved for recruiters on the go.

Workable works well for sourcing and tracking applicants. The approval process works but could be better.

### "Buon ATS per iniziare, ma con limiti nella scalabilità"

April 21, 2026

4.0

Nel complesso Workable è una buona soluzione per aziende in crescita che cercano uno strumento intuitivo per gestire il recruiting. Tuttavia, con l’aumentare della complessità organizzativa, emergono alcuni limiti che possono richiedere strumenti più avanzati.

Pros

Workable è semplice da usare e veloce da implementare, ideale per strutturare rapidamente il processo di recruiting. Ho apprezzato la pubblicazione multi-canale degli annunci, la pipeline candidati chiara e la facilità di collaborazione con gli hiring manager. Buona anche l’esperienza utente complessiva.

Cons

Le funzionalità di reporting e personalizzazione risultano limitate, soprattutto per esigenze più avanzate. In contesti con volumi elevati o processi complessi, lo strumento può risultare meno flessibile rispetto ad altri ATS più evoluti.

Overall, it's been a pleasant experience with Workable. We are a company that is constantly hiring due to the cyclical nature of our work, so having a helpful tool like this makes life easier!

Pros

We are a very small boutique catering and events company so we use it for job postings and are able to post instantly to multiple message boards.

No real cons thus far. We have only just begun working with it but so far it proves to be quite user friendly and is definitely a useful tool in hiring.
