### "Great value for money! "

August 13, 2025

5.0

Pros

Having used Recruitly for four years now, the customer support has been 10/10, and the platform has always been easy to use. Everything you need for a CRM and ATM, with several integrations and native products built in.

Cons

Over the years, there has naturally been some teething problems, however, they have always been quick to create a solution or build functionality to support our needs.

### "What a fantastic recruitment platform! "

December 4, 2024

5.0

Fantastic from start to finish! The service was incredible as soon as we reached out even though we were just a small business. Someone was always there to help but it was rare we needed them to as everything works so well and efficiently.

Pros

The user experience is so efficient! It is so clean and easy to navigate I honestly don't think there is a better recruitment platform out there.

Cons

Nothing! If there was ever something I was unsure about, someone at Recruitley would come back to me within minutes on the chat.

Recruitly was a superb tool for me as a one man startup and enabled me to automate numerous tasks. As the business has grow to 4 people they have been great with onboarding new consultants and providing training sessions whenever required

Pros

Ease of use and support service and ability to automate tasks as a one man band.

Cons

Lack of mobile app and cv parse facility could be a bit more sophisticated

### "Solid, powerful and and intuitive CRM + ATS"

December 2, 2024

5.0

Very positive. A solid product backed by people who are passionate about the service they provide.

Pros

The team at Recruitly are friendly and responsive. They are on hand to help with anything that we need. They are regularly rolling out new features, and genuinely act on user feedback to improve the system. The system itself is powerful and intuitive, allowing for pretty much any way of working.

Cons

We had some initial teething problems and a few issues when we joined, but they were resolved in quite short order. The email marketing system could be integrated a bit more cohesively into the wider database system.

February 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

Great Team that tries to make everything happen and adapt the tool as much as possible to your needs! The software is super user-friendly and intuitive, which made it very easy for our team to adapt to a new tool. We especially appreciate the great support and proactivity from the whole Recruitly Team, who constantly thrives to make the tool even better and match client needs! Keep up the great work!

Cons

We have very specific reporting needs that are not covered with the standard reports provided in Recruitly - but they are working on providing us with all the reports we need!

### "Great CRM and ATS for solo and SME recruiters."

August 15, 2025

5.0

Can't fault them, very easy to use, and a lot of great functions for a solo recruiter with just the free version before you upgrade. I will be upgrading as I want to use all the function, but honestly a great online too, that just keeps getting better as I learn to use it more.

Pros

Great value for money, and amazing customer support. The CRM is very easy to use once you set it up, and you can tailor a great deal for yourself. The AI is amazing matching candidates on your database to your jobs.

Cons

Would be good to be able to fully customise own dashboard, you can do your own but it would be handy to be able to fully customise.

### "Great Service! Useful tools "

September 15, 2025

5.0

So far it has been positive. The tools will work perfectly for our small recruiting firm's needs. We have yet to use it long-term term but it has all the functionality that we were looking for in an ATS. Easy to use and understand as well.

Pros

We are just up and running with Recruitly and the team has been more than helpful! They have helped us work through some start-up kinks and have been a helpful resource as we get acquainted with the software. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been wonderful to work with and very responsive.

Cons

Nothing has been a red flag to us yet. So far it seems to be a great solution for our recruiting needs.

It's been very good. I have had 2 different training sessions and multiple follow ups with the team. \[sensitive content hidden\] makes sure often that everybody is happy and checking on me. Very happy.

Pros

Introduction and ease of use, constant development and new features. Even better - team has introduced features I have personally requested - no extra charge!

All good so far, very hard to find a complaint - especially for such a good value product.

### "Excellent ATS/CRM for Boutique Specialist Firm "

November 12, 2024

5.0

Excellent experience with the team and the platform from day one. Natural teething issues all quickly managed by the team. Couldn't be happier.

Pros

Recruitly is an intuitive platform, which is easy to navigate and learn to use. This is helped greatly by the scalability of the platform for each user - so that I can choose what I want to see and functions which I don't yet need to see. The same can be said for the impressive level of 3rd party integration support, which allows users to work seamlessly with other tools. But probably the best part about working with Recruitly is the team/support, which is very responsive and helpful; esp. during those initial few weeks of getting up and running, when you need them the most. Lastly, one of the thing that I really like about this platform if that the team are constantly seeking to improve it (even in little ways), so that functionality and useability are always at the heart of the platform.

Cons

What's not to like, really... I'm genuinely struggling to think of something to say here. No, I've got nothing.

### "Well worth making the change!"

June 19, 2020

5.0

We have so far found the customer service team to be extremely attentive and the overall ease of use very strong. We have already seen a big increase in productivity in that we can add candidates more efficiently and organise them more easily. We have also been able to better manage our sales pipeline through the leas and opportunity functions. Recruitly were also able to move data over from our old CRM without much of an issue.

Pros

Recruitly was chosen on the basis of its solid integration with our website but also because of the scalability of possibilities and ease of customisation to adapt to our requirements. The integration is the biggest positive given now we can easily manage candidates all from via one system further allowing us to communicate better and provide a more streamlined and positive experience for all who interact with us.

Cons

We have yet to find anything majorly negative. There have been a number of things to change in order to adapt to how we do things but this would have been the case with any CRM and overall changing aspects has been straightforward.

Reason for choosing Recruitly

We just felt it ticked all the boxes and ease of use was better than the others. The core of this is its customisation ability. We have found very little we have been unable to do in terms of how we organise our candidate and contact base and it suites the way we operate. As previously mentioned, the website integration is also very strong.

### "Awesome solution to our needs!"

April 7, 2020

5.0

Overall, the software meets our needs for now and helps with the processes. It's easier to find the candidates CVs, easy to communicate with them through the system. I particularly enjoyed using marketing tools and would like to explore more options.

Pros

We mostly use candidate's search tool, and recently started to explore marketing tools, and I find it very helpful, efficient and easy to grasp. Thank you to our Account Manager who is super supportive, approachable and helpful every time. Great tech support too, quick and efficient.

Cons

We have not grasped CRM part of the software as such at the moment. I wonder if there is an extension for Chrome to add leads directly to the system with one click, that'd be great addition (probably there is such option already).

### "Recruitly - An incredbile value for money product."

March 12, 2019

5.0

Recruitly has made a huge difference to our recruitment process. It manages internal/external applications really well and it has a very strong CV parsing tool. The most stand out benefit has been the Recruitly team, they offer an amazing level of support.

Pros

We decided to try Recruitly as it seemed to be well priced and offer a good level of features. It has been a very pleasant surprise to find that it is a very powerful piece of software with an impeccable level of support. Since signing up more features and tweaks have been added to increase its utilisation.

Cons

It has not quite got the feature list of some other software but these are usually fancy gimmicky extras and are not always needed.

### "Next-gen recruitment software, worth trying!!"

April 19, 2026

5.0

It’s got everything we need in one place, so I don't have to keep switching between different apps or losing track of notes. Plus, the support team is great. Whenever I have a question, I’m talking to real people who actually care and help me out quickly. It’s rare to find software that’s this powerful but still feels easy to use. For a startup like ours, it’s been exactly what we needed.

Pros

Recruitly has been such a big help for our startup. What really stands out is having everything we need in one place, especially latest WhatsApp integration, and the built-in marketing tools. We are mostly relaying on Recruitly without needing a bunch of different apps.

Cons

Everything has been smooth and the software does exactly what we need it to do so far. I’ll be sure to update my review when I feel sharing cons, but for now, it’s been all positive.

August 17, 2026

5.0

Recruitly has consolidated our entire recruitment stack into one platform. The AI sourcing is impressive, but what really sets it apart is having everything integrated - from candidate discovery to outreach to placement tracking. Our team's productivity has significantly improved since switching.

Pros

• All-in-one platform: ATS, CRM, sourcing, and phone system • 800M+ candidate database with verified contact info • AI-powered matching that actually understands requirements • Built-in calling system saves us from juggling multiple tools • Great customer support and regular updates

Cons

• Learning curve initially (but worth it once you're set up) - knowledge in how to build workflows and automations

### "Great product. Would recommend to friends and coworkers."

July 11, 2026

5.0

Been using Recruitly for sourcing and it's honestly changed how we work. Found 127 good candidates already. Used to waste so much time hunting for contact info and half of it would bounce. Now everything just works. The AI actually understands what I'm looking for too, which is refreshing. Best part is being able to search across companies and export everything in a format I can actually use. Worth every penny.

Pros

• Huge database (800M+ profiles) • Contact info actually works • AI matching is spot on • Easy exports to CSV/Excel • Clean interface • Support team responds quickly

Cons

• Wish it had more ATS integrations • I wish there were more US-based job boards and automations. More animations would be a plus.

### "A solid ATS. "

August 7, 2025

5.0

Recruitly has been great! From the very beginning, the customer service has been nothing short of fantastic. Always prompt, incredibly helpful, and genuinely willing to go the extra mile. A special shout-out to \[sensitive content hidden\], who has been absolutely wonderful to work with. Best of all, it's a highly cost-effective solution that delivers incredible value without compromising on quality or functionality. We couldn't be happier with our decision to use Recruitly.

Pros

One of the biggest benefits for us was their willingness to customize the ATS to match some of our specific workflow. This tailored approach made the transition seamless and has significantly improved our team's efficiency. The platform is also packed with great features and powerful, sales-focused tools that give us a real edge.

Cons

It took a bit of time at the start to get a few things we needed for our region and internal processes, but Recruitly was on to it, happy to help us and we had all we needed.

Pros

I have used Recruitly for a number of years and find the system to be user friendly, good value for money and the team always get back to you with any queries.

Cons

I have not came across anything that I least like as it does what I need it to do and that is the type of system that works for me.

August 21, 2025

Brilliant - came recommended by a fellow recruiter and it certainly lived up to that. Easy to use and customer support has been great.

Pros

Does all of the things I need in a CRM for a fraction of the others that I demo'd in 2025. Terrific features - website integration and external job boards for job psoting and applicant management. Able to customise workflows, cv easy parsing, and great customer support.

Cons

That I hadn't found it before 2025!! Excited to see what other integrations and features are in the pipeline.

October 9, 2025

5.0

Overall, Recruitly is a user-friendly and flexible system that continues to evolve. The platform offers great potential, and we appreciate the team’s commitment to continuously improving features and stability. With every update, the solution becomes more refined and even better suited to the needs of modern recruitment teams.

Pros

We’ve been using Recruitly for a few months now and see a lot of potential in the system – especially the flexibility of custom fields, integrations, and the overall usability for recruitment workflows.

Cons

System stability can occasionally be inconsistent. The support team is always very kind and supportive, though sometimes it takes a bit of time until everything is fully resolved.
