I like especially how easy it is to create bespoke pages, and it easily exceeds other ATS options. Cons I haven't yet run into any particular issues with Homerun - if I were to be picky I'd say maybe some additional customisation options for dark mode ATS pages. Switched from [GoHire](https://www.capterra.com/p/184827/GoHire/) We were looking for something more polished and a better value for money. Review Source MV Maija V. People Advisor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Homerun feedback" November 11, 2025 5.0 So far I have been really happy with Homerun. Like mentioned earlier, easy to use, you can modify everything based on your wishes, Knockout-questions which save a lot of manual work internally and customer service has been excellent. Pros The value the product offers for the company is high. It is easy to use, easy to modify based on the company brand/image and user experience is on a high level. The buttons/options are on places you would assume and very logical. Cons Maybe for the future it would be possible to still develop further the candidate survey options; this would help the companies to make the candidate journey even better for the future. Switched from [Greenhouse](https://www.capterra.com/p/133100/Greenhouse/) To make the ATS system match better with the current company needs; to make it more flexible, to increase the user experience for us but also for the candidate.

Head of Product Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great onboarding, but offboarding needs serious work" June 10, 2025 1.0 Our time using Homerun was largely positive while we were active users. The platform is well-designed, easy to navigate, and suited for small teams hiring fast. But the way our departure was handled left a bitter aftertaste. A more thoughtful approach to account closure, like a short data retention period—would make a big difference. Pros Homerun makes it easy to get started. Onboarding is fast, and managing candidates is intuitive and smooth. It’s clearly built with user-friendliness in mind. Cons Offboarding, unfortunately, is where things fall apart. Our account and all associated data were permanently deleted within 24 hours of cancellation. With no warning, no grace period, and no way to reverse it. That felt abrupt and unnecessarily rigid, especially when it meant losing access to important candidate conversations. Review Source CBS Christopher Bryan S. Junior Customer Support Manager Online Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A very user-friendly tool." January 15, 2026 5.0 Aside from the interface, I really like how easy it is to find what I need. Everything feels well organized and simple to navigate, which makes using the app enjoyable and stress-free. I don’t have to spend time searching or guessing where things are because the layout is clear and straightforward. The menus and options are easy to understand, even for someone who is using the app for the first time. This makes the overall experience smooth and convenient. Being able to quickly access features and information saves time and makes the app more pleasant to use. Overall, the ease of finding what I need adds a lot of value and makes the app feel user-friendly and reliable. Pros The app is very easy to use and straightforward, which makes it enjoyable to navigate. I especially like the light-colored tabs, as they are easy on the eyes and help the interface feel clean and organized. The overall design is simple yet effective, making it clear where to find everything without any confusion. Even as a first-time user, I felt comfortable exploring the different features and menus. The layout is logical, and everything feels intuitive, so I can accomplish tasks quickly and efficiently. Overall, the combination of the user-friendly design and light, appealing colors makes using the app a pleasant experience. Cons So far, I haven’t encountered any issues or problems with the app. Everything has been working smoothly, and I haven’t noticed anything that doesn’t function properly or needs improvement. The features are straightforward and easy to use, and I haven’t experienced any glitches, crashes, or confusing sections. Overall, my experience has been positive, and I feel that the app meets my expectations. At this point, I don’t have any complaints or concerns to share. I will continue to use it and see how it performs over time, but for now, there’s nothing negative to report. Review Source NS Nadia S. HR Manager Environmental Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Streamlined Hiring, Stronger Teamwork" October 13, 2025 5.0 Using this platform has really improved the way our team collaborates during the hiring process. The candidate overview and shared evaluation space make it easy for everyone to stay aligned and provide input. Communication is clearer, decisions are faster, and the whole process feels far more structured. Pros A candidate overview and a shared team space to evaluate and rate candidates together – it makes collaboration so much easier! Cons Sometimes it’s a bit unclear for colleagues when a message is sent to a candidate and when the communication is meant for internal use only. Review Source eK erik K. Artistic Coordinator Emerging Performance Makers Performing Arts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Home Run is hitting it out of the park" January 15, 2026 5.0 Very positive. I will use it again the next time we have a large scale application pool that we need to be able to sort swiftly and efficiently. Pros It has a simple userfriendly interface, and makes the process of sorting and evaluating applications straightforward and easy to carry out within a hiring team setting. in the arts, it is especially handy as it allows quick toggling between multiple candidates for comparative purposes, so that you can figure out who to interview as part of your hiring or selecting process. And if there are questions, customer support is prompt and helps solve any challenges quickly, so that you can focus on recruitment and not practical issues. Cons i just wish you could also give half-stars. one to five whole stars is a little imprecise when you are deciding between a large number of candidates. Review Source julia S. Clinical LEad Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good platform for staff and employers" December 29, 2025 5.0 Straightforward to use, clear to view and I visit regularly. I use the wall but my colleagues don't seem to be as aware of it which is a pity. This could be emphasised a bit more. Pros Easy to navigate, and view annual leave to ensure we don't overbook staff or request too much. I also like the wall to leave feedback to colleagues. Cons Not much to dislike, it is easy to navigate, although holiday booked doesn't always show up on the chart, I had to search in my personal account. Review Source TB Tom B. HR Officer Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Homerun - your help in recruitment + great customer support" October 2, 2025 5.0 Pretty good overall. They are clear in their communication and respond quickly if you need their help. The platform itself is easy to use and efficient. Pros The adequate help you receive. They respond fast and are always trying to help you out the best way possible. Cons They were flexible by providing us a shorter term contract. However, the fact that Homerun only offers yearly contracts now is something we dislike as a company. But like a said, it's appreciated they shortened the term for us. Review Source Ana Maria B. Recruiter Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Overall good" February 18, 2026 4.0 Pros It's easy to use. I've been using it already for two weeks and I can say that I almost have mastered it Cons Would like to have a more visual appealing way of seeing all your processes. Something like a dashboard where you can see everything Review Source VR Verified Reviewer ARCHITECTURAL ASSISTANT Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "employee review " November 27, 2025 5.0 i would say very good, it shows you all the other people that i work with when I'm off and will be back and same for them Pros booking holidays and how organized it is, its easy to see how many days you are allowed to take and how many days for what occasions Cons sometimes it miscalculates holidays, but then it notifies you that how many holidays you have left and that makes up for it Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Head of Customer Marketing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Really good experience so far!" October 29, 2025 4.0 Very good! Homerun simplifies hiring, keeps everything organised, and offers a great user experience with reliable support and clear communication. Pros Homerun is incredibly easy to use, intuitive, and efficient. It makes managing hiring workflows smooth and straightforward, saving lots of time. Cons The platform works well overall, but it would be much better if it included an expenses claim or reimbursement feature to streamline admin tasks. Review Source MA Mike A. Owner Food & Beverages Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "To the top" October 6, 2025 4.0 Great experience definitely can’t complain everything is right there from value too customer service Pros Great platform very easy to navigate and use definitely amazing value for money customer support is top notch Cons The only thing I can say I want a fan of for this platform was the name Homerun just don’t seem right for this platform Review Source BH Bhumi H. Operations Specialist Real Estate Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Homerun Review" July 14, 2025 3.0 Overall not a bad experience but not what we expected either. It was simple to post our job openings and to track all candidates during the different hiring phases they were in. Pros We appreicated that this platform was very user friendly and did not take alot of time to learn and navigate. We had a great deal of help from the support team they were great in resolving our many issues. Recruiters had a positive expereince using the platform as well. Cons A few things to be aware of, on the pricey side if you have a large team. Server would have glitches during high business hours and would have difficulity downloading reports. Could not customize reports to contact specific data about our candidates. Review Source Geert Jan B. HR Manager Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very easy to use" December 7, 2023 5.0 Pros Very user friendly. The data is safe and secured. Communication with candidates is very effective and efficient. Cons The reviewing of candidates could be better. That is now quite basic with only a star (1-5). I would prefer if you could review candidates based on a couple of criteria. Review Source SK Sanne K. Ops Manager Program Development Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use software with excellent service" September 30, 2019 5.0 We are a team that works remote a lot. Homerun is really easy to use for remote teams, because you can let everyone access the right vacancies and discuss together in the tool what you think of certain applicants. I also like that you can make e-mail templates, which really saves you a lot of time for every applicant. Pros \- The design - The simplicity. They don't have too many features. Only the ones you actually need with recruiting. - The customer service. You really het a personal treatment and they are quick with their replies. Cons There is no option to bundle qualified candidates that you don't want to hire now, but maybe in a later stadium. This feature is on their roadmap though. I cannot wait to use it! Reason for choosing Homerun We were doubting to maybe don't use any software yet and only purchase software when we grow too big to handle. But I'm very happy we didn't because starting off with good software right away gives you more peace when you are scaling up. And.. the price is actually very good, also for small companies. Review Source RV Richard V. Co-founder Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Homerun allows telling the authentic company story" August 28, 2019 5.0 Since we started using Homerun all relevant data is gathered in one system. No scattered data across systems, but more focus on what matters most; the applicant. Pros The two most important features in recruitment software are: telling your company's story, and supporting the entire applicant's application lifecycle. Homerun perfectly covers both. Where job posts usually do not allow rich markup, Homerun offers all tools and widgets needed to thell the full story. We had many applicants who Once an applicant did apply, Homerun allows managing the workflow in detail. This makes hiring what it should be, a team effort. Cons Setting up the job posts and workflow require more time as posting a profile and letting applicants apply by email. Investing this time is a requirement for successful hiring at a big scale though. Reason for choosing Homerun \- Homerun did allow us best to tell our story - Recruitment software is not our core business, eliminating our previous solution. Review Source IM Isabel M. People & Culture Coordinator Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review Homerun " October 1, 2019 4.0 We received a lot of applicants via the system. I think it's easy to use, the service is amazing and I think the price/quality is excellent. Also I think working with Homerun makes the overview of the candidates so much better; cannot think about working without the system. Pros I like that it's possible to change the page, insert mail templates, chat online, add video's and contact everyone via the system. It's very AVG proof. Cons What I don't like is that it's not possible to change the page totally the way you want it to look like. You cannot for example change the typo. And I would love to have the possibility to change the lay-out of the e-mail templates. Now it's quite boring and very hard/almost impossible to add a nice signature . Review Source Karin V. HR Manager Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Happy with Homerum" October 10, 2019 4.0 All info about a candidate, including comments from the hiring team, are all in te same place. No need to forward all kind of email internally. And even if I'm not in the office, the recruitment process continues. Pros It's easy to implement in your own website and it's very userfriendly. Cons Sometimes I would like to change something what is not possible, but it's is such a minor thing that I'm not able to remember what is was. Review Source JH Jenny H. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Staff Squared reduces and automates key HR admin" August 11, 2015 5.0 Pros The most important features for us as a small business are: - holiday planning, booking and the shared calendar - sickness record and bradford factor score - goals - appraisals We like that the product is focussed to suit the needs of a small/medium business and so it isn't like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. You're only paying for what you really need. Importantly, the support service is top notch and personable - perfectly suited to the needs of SMEs Cons I'd like to see more dynamic reporting features or even just a wider choice of reports. I'm assured that this is coming. However, it's worth noting that if you can't access a specific type of report you want then you can contact support and they'll run the report for you. Review Source WF Will F. Managing Partner Consumer Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Works great, makes hiring easy" November 17, 2022 5.0 Fantastic. Pros It's very intuitive, stores things easily between members of the hiring team. Hasn't had any bugs or lost any applicants. All in all, a great product. Cons Wish that the job posting editor would autosave. Have lost my work before because I forgot to press save. Review Source RH Roemie H. Founder Graphic Design Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use, very effective" October 4, 2019 5.0 For us it really helped us streamlining our recruitment process and in the end drove costs of acquiring new people down. Pros It's super simple to create beautiful landing pages for your job ads with little effort. Cons If you don't use it on a daily basis, you have to get used to the interface. Some things feel a bit hidden sometimes, so you have to search a bit. Review Source AL Alice L. Office Manager Used the software for: ### "Make life easier" June 21, 2013 5.0 If you are a SME like us you will find Staff Squared beneficial in looking after your staff and keeping accurate and up to date records Pros I had been searching for HR software for some time and came across Staff Squared. It's an intuitive self service app that has made everyday HR so much easier and freed up time in my day for other Admin duties. There are no set up fees or long term contracts just a monthly subscription, so easy to set up and use. Cons I don't have anything negative to say about Staff Squared. All questions are quickly answered by their support team Review Source AL Alice Lipscombe Used the software for: ### "Superb and cost effective" January 17, 2014 5.0 I have been using Staff Squared for 4 months now and I can honestly say that it is a very simple app to use and above all affordable. It has cut the time I spend on admin in half and made staff management so much easier Pros Easy to use, flexible, a lot of useful features including holiday tracking, unlimited document storage, and the calendar integration with our existing calendars is great. Cons None that I can think of, they're continuously adding new features...

It simplifies essential HR tasks such as tracking employee information, managing roles, and organizing workflows, making it particularly valuable for growing teams. One of its standout strengths is its intuitive and user-friendly interface. Managers and administrators can quickly access, update, and manage employee data without confusion, which saves time and reduces errors. The platform also enhances communication by centralizing important information, ensuring everything is easy to find and manage. Overall, Homerun is a reliable and practical tool that improves efficiency, organization, and team oversight. It’s an excellent choice for companies looking for a simple yet effective way to manage their workforce. Pros Its reliable and practical solution that enhances efficiency, organization, and oversight. Its balance of simplicity and functionality makes it a strong choice for companies seeking an effective way to manage their workforce without unnecessary complexity. Cons A potential downside of Homerun is that its simplicity may limit advanced customization and deeper HR functionalities needed by larger or more complex organizations. Review Source VT Vera T. Recruitment Consultant Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple, affordable, and effective " October 31, 2025 3.0 I often recommend Homerun to smaller companies because it’s affordable, easy to set up, and does exactly what it needs to do without being overly complex. It’s a solid, no-nonsense tool. I’ve been following and using Homerun for 3 years now, and while it hasn’t changed much in that time, it continues to deliver a smooth and pleasant user experience. Pros Homerun is a simple and easy-to-use tool that works well for smaller recruitment setups. It’s straightforward, without too many options, which makes it user-friendly. Posting a job is quick and intuitive, and the layout blocks make the job posts visually appealing. The candidate overview is also clear and easy to follow. I especially like that there’s a scheduling assistant, allowing candidates to book their own meetings, and that it integrates well with Outlook. The support team is friendly and quick. Cons What I find really disappointing is that you can’t add extra subpages to the career site. Everything has to be on one page, which is a real shame. I also don’t like the evaluation forms (called scorecard templates). They should be much more customizable. Other systems do this really well — you can adjust the questions and add open fields. In Homerun, you’re stuck with giving star ratings and adding a short comment, plus there’s always the same default question at the top. Alternatives considered [Teamtailor](https://www.capterra.com/p/144801/Teamtailor/)[Tellent Recruitee](https://www.capterra.com/p/140650/Recruitee/) Reason for choosing Homerun Compared to Recruitee and Teamtailor, Homerun has fewer features, but for companies that are just starting out and don’t yet use an ATS, Homerun is a better fit. It’s much more affordable, easy to set up, and does what it needs to do without unnecessary complexity.
