It has empowered our operational managers to recruit efficiently and effectively. Most importantly, the candidates we've hired through this system have been excellent cultural fits, aligning perfectly with our goal to get the right people into the right teams. Pros The Hire platform is a one-stop solution for our recruitment needs. From managing a high volume of applications with ease to tracking a candidate's entire journey, it's got it all. The intuitive design is a standout feature, making sorting and filtering a breeze.When it comes to candidate tracking, the software doesn't miss a beat, covering all stages of the recruitment process while offering an easy-to-navigate interface. The candidate management feature is particularly strong, offering a detailed view of each candidate's history, which is invaluable for roles where work experience and skills matter more than formal qualifications.Finally, the candidate profile and application management sections are equally robust. Profiles are presented in a consistent yet individualised manner, and the application process is smooth and user-friendly. All in all, a highly recommendable platform for any recruitment needs. Cons While the platform excels in many areas, there is a minor inconvenience: the necessity to download resumes or cover letters to read them outside the platform. While not a deal-breaker, it's a small aspect that could be improved for an even smoother experience.

Quality, Training and People Manager Civil Engineering Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Customer Support is second to none. " February 2, 2026 5.0 Overall, it has been fantastic. Ongoing use, engagement with our team, and communication between Compono and us has been second to none. Pros The implementation and ongoing support from the Compono team has been exceptional. I've never waited more than an hour or two for a response when I reach out with questions. Support has been comprehensive and very receptive to feedback. Additionally, the functionality of the platform, particularly the Engage module and work personality have been an invaluable tool for management in our company. Cons Not a lot not to like. Integrations to other job boards might be easier and helpful - we still find we rely heavily on recruiters, but that isn't necessarily a Compono issue. But having recommended job boards based on the job type or location could be helpful. also, integrations (API) with common HRIS's would be very helpful. Review Source Response from Compono February 23, 2026 Hi Katherine, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review - and for your extra kind words about the support you have received from the team. We appreciate your feedback and partnership, and look forward to continually improving your experience with Compono. CT Craig T. System Administrator Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Online Training Platform" June 7, 2024 4.0 Compono has been an excellent addition to our organisation. Compono fits our organisational needs perfectly, from our Regulatory requirements to our training requirements, to our Budget needs, Compono is the training solution for us. Pros Compono was easy to set up, easy to use, easy to train other's how to manage and makes training our staff a breeze. Support has been fantastic, there has never been an issue that Compono has not been able to resolve in a timely manner. Cons The only difficulty with rolling out Compono was the invitation email went to our employees junk folders, which we cannot blame Compono for. Review Source Response from Compono June 17, 2024 Hi Craig, thanks for taking the time for the review and your kind words - your feedback about support is something we value highly and has been passed to the team for their recognition.

It was a great experience with the team and I would highly recommend working with them. Once the bugs are fixed we will work with them again. Pros Our team is heavily based on culture and understanding who is a good fit for our organisation when we hire. It was an amazing tool to identify what key things about our culture our team enjoyed and where we needed to put some work in. Once that was identified we could utilise our culture to identify if a applicant in our recruitment process was a good fit. Cons The only 2 things we didn't like were1. Inability to integrate paid linked-in recruitment applicants into the system automatically. 2. Bumpiness of applicants actually filing in the details. Multiple applicants both did not complete the application or partially completed it thinking they were done. Review Source Response from Compono October 10, 2023 Hi Ben, thanks for the feedback and comments, especially your kind words about the team and support. JI Jennifer I. Manager Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to use and well supported LMS" August 25, 2023 5.0 Pros The platform is really easy to use and was adaptable to our complicated model despite its simplicity. Really clean interface which learners and administrators appreciate. The support team is fast and committed in resolving issues, providing focused support where we have unique use cases. We are a charity and use the platform for online learning for thousands of learners across Queensland. Cons Some access controls would benefit in being more granular. Feature roadmap would also be appreciated. Review Source Response from Compono August 29, 2023 Hi Jennifer, thanks for your kind feedback. We love seeing our products being used in your industry and appreciate working with you. JD Juan D. Director Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Director" December 16, 2019 4.0 Reducing overhead costs. Building data to complement employee files/reviews/recruitment processes. A professional services firm whose owners are time poor, the Shortlsyter team has been fantastic in developing tailored HR processes to build our internal HR environment. Pros The Intuitiveness of the AI/software learning Cons For time poor users, onboarding use of software was an issue but note our business does not have high turnover, so we only use(d) the software on an as need basis. Review Source CL Casey L. Company Director Machinery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Shortlyster has saved us both time and money" November 19, 2019 5.0 Shortlyster has saved us both time and money with regards to our recruiting process. Alongside this, Shortlyster has improved our interviews with the extensive candidate data we now have. We can now narrow down our questions which helps us make better hiring decisions. Pros Shortlyster has significantly shortened our recruitment process. As a company, we don’t have to sift through lots of resumes and data, all of this is fast tracked with Shortlyster’s automated shortlisting technology. Cons There is nothing to-date that I didn't like about this software. Review Source Response from Compono November 20, 2019 Casey, thank you for your kind review and ongoing support. AB Alastair B. Founder and CEO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Shortlyster gives us better data-driven information to make better hiring decisions" November 21, 2019 5.0 Shortlyster has significantly improved our hiring process with a better, data-driven understanding of our candidates. Pros The data that Shortlyster provides us on each candidate has eliminated our need to make gut feel decisions on choosing which candidate to hire. Cons Shortlyster is able to salary match and provide guidance on the salary range a candidate expects. However it would be ideal if this could be even more detailed so I am able to understand if a candidate is willing to negotiate. Review Source Response from Compono November 25, 2019 We've greatly enjoyed working with Hyra iQ. Thank you Alastair, for your kind words and ongoing support. MH Mick H. Co-Founder and Company Director Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We’ve saved so much time with Shortlyster" November 10, 2019 5.0 Prior to using Shortlyster, our Directors would personally review each candidate. At the time we were hiring a new employee every month for 15 months. Introducing Shortlyster has easily saved 75% of my time allocated to recruitment and it gets the match right! Pros Shortlyster has helped us look beyond the skills fit to define the culture, personality and character fit needed for our business. Cons There’s nothing so far that I don’t like about Shortlyster. Review Source Response from Compono November 11, 2019 Thank you for your positive feedback, Mick. We're glad that you're enjoying the benefits for Shortlyster. Similar Products Featured
