### "No review"

February 1, 2022

5.0

Though we are fairly new to using Checkr, we've been very pleased with it so far.

Pros

Ease of use and easy to read. It's easy to input data and read the reports/findings.

Cons

A bit pricey, but worth it. In general, I think the background checks are pricey, but again, the value is definitely there.

My experience has been always awful. I do not have a choice but to use them but they do not deserve your hard earn money

Pros

Nothing at all is pleasant or good about dealing with this company

Cons

I did not like it at all. As far as I am concerned is all bad from customer service to the lack of management

### "CHECKR background checks for volunteers"

February 4, 2022

5.0

We need speedy turn-around for our volunteers and CHECKR does a great job with this.

Pros

The ease of tracking and speed of turn-around

Cons

I have some volunteers in the United Kingdom, and I have not tried to use CHECKR for them. I do not yet know how that experience will turn out. I am hoping it goes as smoothly and effortlessly as the US checks.

### "Great Platform & Easy to Use"

January 27, 2022

4.0

Pros

Checkr is super easy to navigate. The most useful feature is the international screenings. We were able to set this up quickly, and its not too expensive when ordering screenings. They also set up a walk through for the feature to go over any questions.

Cons

If I had to choose something, we've had some issues during background screenings with employment verification.
