### "Migration from maxhire"

November 20, 2015

4.0

Pros

Easy product to use / support appears very good and the on-baording data migration process was very easy to work with

Cons

I had an issue with the mis-match in my expectations when it came to the set up costs for the Time Sheeting product. Originally when I made the decision to move to JobAdder it was not explained that there could be future costs. I've used Maxhire and their timesheet system for the past 8 years and so a decision to move to JobAdder was to replicate like with like. To be honest, I felt I was bullied into having to accept a rediculous set up cost to start using Time Adder after the decision was made. I was made to feel like I should fe grateful for the free migration from Maxhire and the great support I was receiving. Very disappointed with this unprofessional sales approach and has left me feeling very ordinary about how I may promote JobAdder. Other than this sales related issue, the rest of the onboarding process was excellent.

### "Fantastic tool to manage internal jobs."

May 29, 2018

5.0

We are filling our internal jobs very easily and we are saving lot of time. Our jobs are broadcasted to many people by this cloud based tool.

Pros

JobAdders is a very user-friendly tool. It contains the dashboards which can be customized.This tool allows us to post ads to different social media sites.

Cons

I feel that resumes which are in pdf format are not easily decoded other than this I love using this tool.

### "Great product and staff"

November 22, 2015

4.5

Pros

It's ease of use, staff are personable and attentive to issues, questions and training

Cons

Like all CRM's, i still feel there are areas that could be stripped away to be more efficient. particular example being the number of layers involved, ie, candidates, contact and companies all separated.

### "Excellent software "

May 15, 2014

5.0

Pros

They're just excellent people building a product they care about. It's been great to see JobAdder improve gradually over the years. There is a real focus on simplicity that I love. It seems like the JobAdder team thinks just as much about what can be removed, as well as what new features can be added. Support is the best I've seen from any company.

Cons

The iOS app is due for a refresh. Search is a little clunky; you need to be in the candidates tab to search candidates, contacts tab for contacts, companies tab for companies. Data entry could be quicker. If I get a phone call from a candidate, I want to be writing notes down immediately in their file. Right now, I need to do 5 things: click candidates tab, search for the candidate, click on the candidate, select notes tab (if not already selected), click add note. These are only small gripes. Some recent updates suggest that they will probably be fixed this year.

Jobadder has to be the most innovative product in it's field. It is extremely user friendly with great functionality and incredible technical support.

### "JobAdder is the ultimate wingman!"

September 9, 2014

4.5

Pros

Dare we say: we love the sssimplicity. In JobAdder, it's obvious where you need to go to find the information you're looking for. This really helps new consultants when they're learning the ropes. Socialising jobs is a fantastic function; parsing from Gmail and populating info onto candidates' records from CVs all save valuable time, too. JobAdder support is exceptional. They are always quick to respond. They have warm personalities with the knowledge to really fix the issue ASAP, which is essential for us.

Cons

There is room for improvement in some of the BD functionality but with each new update from Jobadder, real progress is being made here.

### "Powerful but simple to use"

November 19, 2015

4.5

Pros

It's user friendliness yet ability to dig deeper if needs be.

Cons

That it's so damn perfect - Just kidding. Like any cloud based system it takes 2 seconds to open a page. Occasional lagging

### "JobAdder would work for most but not us"

January 18, 2018

4.0

That sums it up. We are searching for a new software as we have not been "happy" with the several we have used so far.

Pros

The product works well and there are no issues in it performance. It is great at adding jobs as the name implies. It is able to run searches well and seems to be well organized. It is a fair value for what the software does. We would love the software if there were not shortcomings but you get those with any software.

Cons

Our first choice would be to be able to house the software on site but it is cloud based only. Additionally, we need to see all the employees of a company on the screen without doing extra searches. Also, we use datacodes and so we can avoid contacting candidates that list every technology under the sun, whether they had it in college or just played with it in there free time.

### "Functional, Easy to Use and Great Support"

May 9, 2017

4.0

Effective product for small and medium HR function. Great support and functionality is excellent.

Pros

Excellent help function with online support and great 'how to' videos for self teaching. Easy to use and get your head around and I love the customization that is available in terms of workflow.

Cons

Integration with a wider range of other systems would be good and also the ability to upload bulk contacts into the system.

### "Very good overall just not much in the way of customisation"

December 18, 2018

4.0

They really seem to want to improve this product and seem very open to suggestions and feedback which is great.

Pros

Extremely easy to use and constant updates allows them to keep improving. Best feature is the ability to manage all of the resumes gathered from job boards.

Cons

There really are not many cons that come to mind, the only thing is this is a little lacking if you need to customize certain things.

### "Excellent software for job placement agencies!"

July 15, 2016

4.5

Pros

After months of searching for a software solution to fit our needs as education placement firm, we finally found it! We were looking for a system that was easy to use, easy for our clients to use when candidates are submitted, and affordable. Their technical support is very responsive and their help guides/videos are very useful. Also every month they come out with new releases & updates.

Cons

The software is somewhat user-friendly, I wish it was easier to navigate. However, with time I've been able to learn the system. Also, if I were to be picky, the date format displays backwards due to being based out of Australia (i.e. 07 June instead of June 07). However, I believe this is an update that is coming soon for US market, so I will be patient.

Job Adder is very user friendly and their support time is outstanding and they have excellent communication.

I have used Job Adder for over 1 year and find it easy to use and is a great investment. There is nothing I can say I don't like about it.

October 13, 2016

4.0

I really love how feature rich Job Adder is - however it doesn't easily connect or allow you to upload or download the information stored within the product.

Pros

It was easy to set up, feature rich allowing photos of candidates so that you could easily recognize and identify them. Excellent customer support

Cons

No easy printable reports - such as open jobs. Available candidates.

### "Nice new system!"

December 10, 2020

4.0

I started using it with this company and was brought on board to help with the transition from one ATS to another. I've only been working with it for about a month but has feathers I haven't seen in other ATS that I really like!

Pros

I like the ease of use and the ability to see and do more than one thing at a time.

Cons

There is no playground where I am able to complete tasks. In the training environment its great that I am walked through step by step to complete the tasks but wish I was able to click through the completion and see the tasks done.

### "Makes my job so easy!"

November 19, 2015

4.5

Pros

The amazing and timely support from the JobAdder team. I also love the functionality of the product, it's exactly what I was after. The workflow function has saved me so much time and effort, and having all applications go to one place has pretty much changed my life. Value for money is outstanding.

Cons

There is very little I could pick to say that I didn't like! With the highly customisable nature of the product, I guess sometimes I expect to be able to customise something and I can't? But that is just because you have set my expectations so high! I wish LinkedIn could be integrated with this product better - I would love for LinkedIn applications to flow into my JobAdder, but I know that's not up to JobAdder.

### "Great visuals but navigation needs to be improved"

February 12, 2017

4.0

JobAdder is a good HR functional system. Have great visuals and the statistics to understand the information. But the navigation system is sloppy. Sometimes it's not easy to find info or go to a specific screen.

Cons

Navigating the information on this app is little hard. The navigation process can be simplified to find the information quickly.

### "Most customizable and trackable! "

May 22, 2014

5.0

Pros

The software is very user-friendly, and every time you stop and think, "I wish you could do this or that," you find it is already there for you to use. It's great! The customer service/tech support is also great! When we signed up, they went through everything in a very simple and easy to understand tutorial, and every time I have a question, they get back to emails very quickly and even call.

Cons

Honestly, I can't think of anything. The software satisfies all of my requirements.

### "Mobile + Desktop fluidity ATS - for agency"

July 20, 2017

3.0

Pros

This is a high volume and high pace recruiting software - geared for closing roles at a faster pace than traditional internal recruiting.

Cons

Not able to download notes or export details. Furthermore, the fact that the windows close easily and don't auto save can sometimes trip you up.

### "JobAdder Rocks!"

May 29, 2014

5.0

Pros

I like the ease of use, and the friendly and responsive support team; honestly, it's the best service I have ever had. I first used JobAdder back in 2008 and then ended up setting up my own business in 2010. One of the first things I did was get JobAdder back in the picture.

Cons

There's nothing I can think of. They have the recruitment CRM market totally nailed, and every corner is negotiated as a previous road travelled by someone else.
