### "Crelate Talent - by a recruiter"

July 22, 2020

5.0

I can track jobs, candidate progress, status, etc, very very easily The customer service is great. A bit slow - no one is there when you call - but they call you back, are very friendly and very thorough

Pros

1\. Implementation consists....of a few minutes of work with the support team to get going 2. They can do a data conversion fairly quickly. 3. Learning to get started in it in is fast and intuitive. Then, as you learn more about it and figure out how to do things better, you can change what you do - and your prior work is not completely messed up! 4. Integration with my company website and with job boards is simply fantastic

Cons

Data conversion is expensive - but, I guess, so is everyones....

Reason for choosing Crelate

I compared features and reviews, then discarded Zoho, as the others were more in line with what i wanted. I then trialed Big Biller, PCRecruiter and Crelate and found Crelate to match what i need, has intuitive interface and is expandable to some interesting new features.

### "I tried another ATS first and I wish I would have just gone with Crelate from the beginning..."

November 18, 2024

5.0

Great, pleasant all the way from the sales to the set up.

Pros

I was torn between Crelate and another ATS and I wish I would have gone with Create from the beginning. Unfortunately I went with the other ATS that had so many features and not a streamline way of usage that it was hard to use all of the features available. Crelate offers many great features AND they are user friendly. Starting with Crelate would have been a game changer.

Cons

It would be great if there was an extra check in call after a month or so (even if it needs to be paid for) just to make sure everything is flowing correctly. It's nice that there is one after you switch over but sometimes questions come up after you have been in the flow of using the system more. My main reason for going with the other ATS at first was because they had similar prices but offered more users. Having a feature where I could have had a part time or admin access for a smaller cost would have probably stopped me from going to the other ATS in the beginning.

The prices were similar but ATS allowed more users and we were not sure how our team would be growing so we went with them first. Their features were great but it was not user friendly so since Crelate stood our in ease of use I made the switch.

### "I highly do not recommend."

December 23, 2024

1.0

Stressing and frustrating, I have to learn the system myself and solved all the issues on my own. I am currently having new issues and there is no personal customer support.

Pros

Besides the appearance, that was it. The tabs on the left and at the top were very self explanatory, everything beyond the Home Screen got complicated with confusing training and outdated videos.

Cons

Poor customer support. There is no one to speak with whenever you call, leaving a message does not get a follow up and if it does the minimum time is 48 hours later. The chat robot keeps sending references that do not help to solve the problem, During the training courses the instructor normally talks around your questions or give a political answer.

### "Best Recruiting Software Available"

October 28, 2024

4.0

It's the best sales tool I've used in my recruiting career. There are some improvements that can be made to document upload and texting, but overall, it's far and away the best one I've used.

Pros

The layout of jobs and ease of transition between records. The sales funnel component is very helpful when calling and tracking where candidates are in the process all in one place.

Cons

The texting function recently added a hover preview that is not good. I would love to see that go away, and have reached out about this already.

I have used Crelate for several years with different clients, and it has met and exceeded my expectations.

Pros

### "Good ATS need to CRM could use some help"

October 24, 2024

3.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] was an excellent onboarding representative. He was able to answer 98% of our questions and would quickly get information from his team on the remaining 5%. He's patient and very knowledgeable. I've only had the experience of creating templates and sending emails so far, so I don't think I am a reliable source for this question.

Pros

We just finished our onboarding, so I can't say yet.

Cons

We were under the impression that Crelate was both an ATS and a CRM. A basic function of a CRM is to capture incoming leads through a website or other links outside of Crelate. We have multiple forms on our website, some of which ask for a narrative that captures potential leads. We use links (lead magnets) outside of our website to communicate with us for business development. We've spent countless hours and related expenses trying to figure out how to tag where leads are coming from within Crelate. We did a workaround, but seems like a big miss. We almost went with Loxo because of their AI offerings and ability to update contact information automatically. I think you should consider the same.

Alternatives considered

[Loxo](https://www.capterra.com/p/165046/Loxo/)

Reason for choosing Crelate

Because, at the time, we were told we could use Zapier to add functionality and specifically the ability to connect our website visitor activity to the CRM (which has proven to be difficult!) whereas with Loxo they only offered an open API which would have been very costly to make every form, survey, lead magnet, etc. programmed into the system individually.

Because we needed an ATS system and Crelate combined an ATS with a CRM.

### "Crelate - Its all about the tech support!"

October 15, 2024

4.0

From purchasing the system to tailoring it to our needs, Crelate was with me every step. We resolved the emailing problem with a workaround and Kyle Kroger was very involved till the end. Once we were using Crelate daily, whenever there were issues, Crelate's response was under an hour. Its all about the technical support, as most ATS have the same basic functionality.

Pros

I have used numerous ATS (JazzHR, Bullhorn, EZAcess, Taleo, etc) and Crelate is at the top of my list because of the technical support. At the end of the day, ATSs offer the same function and what separates one from another is the tech support: the response, the attention, and the resolution

Cons

Crelate can be wonky at times but what ATS cant!

### "Crelate Makes Recruiting Easier"

October 15, 2024

4.0

We focus on legal recruiting with a team of 5 and we love it. We're able to collaborate and it's helpful to support our search processes.

Pros

The recruiting side of the platform is incredibly easy to setup and navigate. It's easy to customize and keep yourself organized for your searches. I think it's user friendly and great for people that work solo or in team.

Cons

The sales side of Crelate is slowly getting better as they work on it. It's less easy to navigate making calls quickly to Sales contacts with how they have it setup. I believe they are in the process of improving this.

### "Kittleman Review for Crelate"

October 21, 2024

4.0

Overall, very positive. I've been hearing from my team that Crelate has been a lifesaver for our firm. Everyone is able to do their work quicker and easier. Communication between teams is also easier. Crelate Support is very responsive and helpful. I greatly appreciate the screenshots and short videos the Support reps provide so I can fully understand the solution.

Pros

Its very intuitive and easy to use. Lots of customization options as well.

Cons

Almost all of our SOPs were built around our old ATS software, I think the firm is still adapting to Crelate. This is not so much a "con" as it is something new for us that we're still learning new ways to adapt and take advantage of. There are some bugs I've submitted tickets for that are still under development. Understandably these things take time, but I only get an update after I reach out about it. It would be nice to receive updates/know when the problem has been resolved without prompting the follow up.

### "Great ATS for full desk recruiters"

October 28, 2024

4.0

Great customer service. They genuinely aim to create a well-rounded, high-quality product.

Pros

It's a clean interface with an efficient workflow. The search features are robust, and tools like emailing and texting integrate seamlessly within the product. I also like how companies, positions, and contacts are interconnected.

Cons

They need to improve the workflow and usability to better support recruiters, account managers, and salespeople. Not that is bad but just needs updating.

### "Realistic expectations "

October 15, 2024

4.0

Overall positive. Took a while to get up to speed. Sales person didn’t explain things are factual as they are. Especially the hands on training part. She left out that the hands on training would be one hour per week for 12 weeks and the trainer didn’t do the work they walked me through how to do it. Delayed our launch schedule tremendously. But overall good after the first three months of confusion.

Pros

The candidate tracker flow and ability to customize our own steps and sequences (for the most part). Cost is a big benefit as well.

Cons

Small glitches with applications coming in without contact info. Not all file types accepted as resume upload. Not having a true sourcing database without purchasing other extensions onto it. Love the system but sales person over sold the product and then never answers emails back but before we purchased she contacted us non stop. Not a good feeling. Overall good.

### "Crelate: Don't do anything until you Read this! "

August 23, 2024

5.0

I have used & tested several online databases and without a doubt have found Crelate the best for our agency. We used Crelate in 2015 and again in 2024 it is completely night and day in the affirmative. Do NOT hesitate to use Crelate. The Support team are fantastic, and the onboarding and training, one-on-one is very good. You will not regret being supported by Crelate. We love it. BullHorn doesn't compare.

Pros

What did I like? the ease of getting around and the relationships in the database. The one major plus's is collecting all the references, documents and resumes of any candidate at once. Uploading multiple candidates at once, email marketing. Submittals to clients, Client portal making it easier to communicate with the client, Integration with our ESP, Advertising the jobs on Social media, and websites alike...the video training on the usage of the software and the best of all is the Support team, they are without a doubt the most valuable part when you need an answer ASAP...I could go on and on and on.

Cons

I don't know if this is a Con because of the sheer learning curve on my half. This software is so powerful one can tend to be overwhelmed by how to approach each subject and get up to speed. So the speed of using the application is down to the user.

### "Useful but Cluttered"

August 22, 2023

4.0

I think Crelate is an okay alternative to Avionte, but its cluttered setup makes it difficult to adapt to.

Pros

Mass emails, bulk texts, and easily access templates for all is perfect. The map options when doing radius searches of clients or candidates is great once you figure out how to access it.

Cons

I had the activity feed and wish I could remove it or filter it so I only see my activity. The cluttered appearance of the app is frustrating as well, making it hard to access when using a smaller screen. Ring Central isn't integrated properly and can be unresponsive or will ring at random when no calls are coming in. RC isn't very accessible friendly within Crelate and is easier to use outside of the browser, but you're still getting duplicate calls/text/notifications from all. The radius search is complicated to access and should be available within a list - it's frustrating to have to double back multiple times to get back to the list I was on. Candidate updates and movement on lists is frustrating - I'm making calls to 150+ people and any updates made to a candidate profile will remove them to another portion of the list which can make tracking who I've called while I'm making the calls very complicated. Imported candidates often have missing information despite it being clearly noted on their resume. Resume imports have so many errors it's often easier to import manually. Past jobs import as being current and there doesn't seem to be rhyme or reason to it. Your Chrome extension isn't great - I'll try to import a LinkedIn profile and the current employment dates disappear when I try to select the employer (because Crelate NEVER pulls that information correctly).

Having the option to submit feedback and then voting on which items to prioritize for fixes or improvements is a great community experience. The webinars are nice refreshers or nice teaching tools.

Pros

Ease of Use Customization Searchability Helpful and fast customer service

Cons

Limitations on charts Lack of some organization on columns

### "Mandy Wideman Crelate Review"

October 24, 2024

4.0

Very good! Easy to navigate. I use Crelate every day and am very familiar with it now.

Pros

Overall look and use of Crelate. Everyone in our office can easily access it and can use it.

Cons

Uploading lists of new candidate names to Crelate - duplicate names!! Adding duplicate candidate names is very time consuming. There must be an easier way to add someone to a job search who is already in Crelate (as a list, not individually).

### "The good and bad"

October 24, 2024

5.0

My overall experience has been pleasant, and easy. I love that when I put in a ticket I always get great help and they even send videos.

Pros

Crelate has made it easier for us to search up candidates that go back in our system.

Cons

I don't like the update. I don't like that the new update changed the way we open job orders. I have had issues with it since day 1.

### "Crelate Review 8/25/2023"

August 25, 2023

4.0

Melody has been a God Send. Whenever I can have access to her, things magically happen. When reaching out to support, for the most part it has been good, but there have been times when things get sent into the Abyss. And it's hard to put in writing issues sometimes, it takes a lot of time and sometimes a lot of back and forth. Crelate has frustrated me to tears and brought joy and smiles to my face at times.

Pros

That it gives us options to run our recruiting business as we run it, we are not traditional.

Cons

That functionality and reports are locked down when they should be more open to manipulation. It leaves me feeling like the end user is not in mind when creating the ability.

Reason for choosing Crelate

We were told its easy to manipulate to how we do work (we don't use it traditionally). That was shared with us by someone who is no longer here. Now that I'm the "It Crelate person", I have found it not as easy to manipulate it to our needs. But I think that is due to the fact that so many things are locked down that don't need to be and that we are an adhoc user of Crelate.

### "Excellence in both functionality and service"

November 24, 2020

5.0

The software gets a solid A - very easy, simple, robust, scalable. Customer service an A+ - \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, great listener, patient, never tried to "sell" rather constantly looked for ways to be "the solution" helping me/us navigate through an unknown software. Can't say enough good things about his service.

Pros

Extremely "user-friendly", whether that is in the daily usage or customization everything is thought out extremely well. This is software designed FOR end users NOT for technologists, which is very refreshing.

Cons

Can't think of anything at this point, they are aggressively updating and improving listening to their client base.

Reason for choosing Crelate

Product first then customer service. I did a very "in-depth" write-up for the company I worked with comparing Bullhorn, Crelate, and PC Recruiter advising the purchase of Crelate... sadly that advice was not taken. Crelate is many levels above all others in terms of usability at the customer end - the search functions/power, ability to easily customize at the user or admin level, integration with various email and platforms like Linked In, how it manages the recruiting processes like going through the interviews, record keeping, etc it's just very well thought out.
