HRIS Manager Insurance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Avature ATS is an industry leading software that provides endless possibilities to it's clients." April 4, 2019 5.0 Avature is by far my favorite ATS software that I have worked with in my career. Not only that, but they do a great job with bi-weekly system enhancements and staying at the top of the curve when it comes to functionality and features that will keep your recruiting organization at the forefront of the industry. Pros Two of my favorite features of Avature are the ability to automate and customize. When implementing this system you have the ability to match the software to your business model and processes. You can also apply automation in a number of ways to enable an increase in productivity for your Recruiting and HR organizations. Cons With tons of features and flexibility it's all about knowing and figuring out the best way to do what you want. Sometimes you will encounter issues based on an initial configuration that will take a good amount of work to resolve and get you from point A to B, but nevertheless the system can do a ton! Review Source Yves C. Recruitment Sourcing Specialist Human Resources Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Avature, The Future Of ATS" June 14, 2020 4.0 We use Avature on a daily basis to upload the candidates that apply and the candidates that we source for the organization. Overall, Avature streamlined the process of organizing the data and also engagement with each profile. Pros Generating and customizing a report. The ability to customize and share a report depending on your audience has definitely improved my reporting skills and the way I present data to the team. This has definitely been a game-changer for recruiting since we're dealing with a lot of data and everything is neat and well designed. Cons Cleanup of leads and profiles are a hassle. It would be nice if we could initiate a mass cleanup to identify duplicate profiles for us to make sure if we a previous candidate has already been tapped by a colleague. Review Source GG Guada G. Recruitment Operations Manager Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Looks easier to customise than it is" December 3, 2019 4.0 After 2 years of original implementation qe continue working on customisation and improvement. Most of our needs have been met and we are now in a good place to start taking more advantage of the tool. Pros Avature is very user friendly and allows for customisation their competitors not often offer, making it a good option across several company needs. Cons Although Avature focuses on product customisation, many of it carries additional cost, making the base CRM option not quite meet customisation's future expectations. Customer service don't address questions/issues that the sales team originally does address very well, making the post implementation experience quite a different affair as the sales/implementation one.

Sr. Advertising Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Highly functional and cost effective" December 2, 2021 5.0 I've used Avature for over 10 years in a variety of capacities and have found it to be the best. most cost effective CRM in the market. Pros Avature solutions are excellent, their CRM allows us to streamline the candidate engagement process, and their email capabilities allow us to personalize our communications with leads and candidates. Portals/Landing Pages are incredibly easy to set up and assign urls. Cons Avature is a platform with a ton of solutions and customization, but it takes a while to become comfortable with all of the functionality. Review Source Response from Avature December 23, 2021 Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for trusting us for so many years! JT Jillian T. Marketing Outreach Coordinator Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Overall a good solution for our team" July 13, 2017 4.0 The ability for our team from various locations to manage leads and follow a single process. Pros Avature has a clean aesthetic and has features that have modernized our recruitment team. I enjoy being able to customize fields to fit our needs, from building forms to the reporting functionality of lists. It has been good for our team to all use a standard platform for communication and processes. We have also appreciated the work the Avature team has done to create custom portals that are set up for our unique circumstances. Cons The customization is nice, but also a challenge. My team hasn't been able to get a full menu of services to really know all of our options. We have the Avature CRM and we've been told how we can have full customization, but then when we start to explore getting certain features, we're told that they're only available for Avature ATS. Things have worked out for our group, but it does seem like there's room for Avature to have more consistency. My team is also finding that the customer service is sporadic, especially after implementation.

March 28, 2019 5.0 We chose Avature as we needed a solution flexible enough to accommodate many varying populations and processes. We wanted input on the design and wanted to be sure we could tweak things in order to achieve continuous process improvement. We have been able to totally redesign and improve Talent Acquisition to become an innovative and efficient department. Pros This is a great software as it really allows you to customize it to fit your specific needs, rather than trying to use an out of the box solution and make your process fit it. It is highly flexible and configurable. To top it off, it is easy to use and intuitive! It continuously has updates and truly helps our organization innovate. Cons Compared to all other systems I've used, this is the best! The continuous updates occasionally have unforeseen negative impacts, but their customer service is great at quickly finding solutions. Review Source IS Isabel S. Technical Program Manager Investment Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "ATS - Financial Industry" March 28, 2019 3.0 Overall, as long as you have clearly defined requirements and vision of the future-state and have dedicated resources to thoroughly test the application, you might want to give Avature a try. Avature is a powerful engine if you know what you are looking for and if you are able to establish the right way of communicating this to the implementation team. Pros Flexibility to solve for "modern" times problems Cons Lack of QA from the Avature implementation team Changes being pushed that are not well managed with users. Assigned Account Managers should make sure clients are aware of the change, when it is coming and how that impacts functionality of the solution. Easter-egg hunting syndrome. We do not know we have certain features (and it only takes them a minute to enable it) until we ask or raise a struggle to Avature. Could be a frustrating experience. Review Source MS Mohammed S. HRIS Project Manager Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very Strong ATS" March 28, 2019 5.0 I've worked with Brassring, ICIMS and SAP. Avature is my favorite because of the strong customer support and continued product evolution. Pros Appreciative of the vast customization available to admins within the system. Intuitive from a user perspective and very strong customer support from an admin perspective. Cons Lack of a home button and building an expression within a custom report is not always the easiest.

Recruiter Human Resources Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Avature- Review by a Tech Recruiter " September 8, 2022 5.0 Pros The product is very easy to use, it states on which stage each candidate is. It brings clarity to the team. Cons Its nothing in this software which I like least. Review Source HJ Hubert J. Manager of digital recruitment Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "All round great platform with great support staff. " July 13, 2017 5.0 Data consolidation and capturing. Multi user shared platform that helps our global team truly perform. Pros Willingness to work hand in hand to improve and always move forward. Ability to customise and combine features for true power use. Cons Delay in certain technical aspects being updated or altered when needed urgently. Certain customisation features assume a universal brand or one client only. Review Source HW Heather W. Sourcing Lead Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Highly Recommend" March 28, 2019 5.0 Pros I love that Avature is highly customizable to our company's needs. I also enjoy the automation that we can opt to include in our process (ie. emails, advancing steps, attaching forms, etc.). Cons It can be a little tricky for non-technologically saavy recruiters to learn. Review Source KR Kevin R. Senior Associate, TA Digital Production Support Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Avature is forward thinking and innovating." March 28, 2019 5.0 Pros I love that Avature contains a very configurable environment. Your organizational needs can be designed and met. If there are gaps, Avature listens and works with flexibility to provide solutions. Cons Avature is continued development. They always are working to enhance and make their platform stronger. I don't have much negative to say about the tool because if there are things you wish were different, they are open to hearing what you want/need and will level-set candidly with you on possibilities.

I used this for referring candidate. Very fast and customisable. It took max. 1 min to refer someone Cons Difficult to know the coolest updates Avature did recently so that we can also utilize and use those features Review Source SB Sharon B. Employment Brand US Program Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I love Avature!!" March 28, 2019 5.0 I love the Avature ATS and recommend it to everyone. It's not user friendly and our implementation manager has been the absolute best! Pros I love how it's end-to-end, innovative, trendy, and user friendly (especially on the backend). Cons Nothing! There are some things it can innovate upon, but I believe they will do it. Review Source TL Todd L. VP Global TA Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Having been in TA for some time, I have found an ATS/CRM that works/thinks like a recruiter does. " July 13, 2017 5.0 Pros Built from the ground up, always adding amazing features, and client-centric in design and support. Cons APIs and Calendar Integration/Scheduling, no real pre-built Ecosystem of integrations (References, E-sign, background check, etc...) Review Source LV LaMar V. Recruiter Biotechnology Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My experience with Avature." April 1, 2019 4.0 Pros I like the idea of working within one system for CRM & ATS needs. Cons The software seems a bit too linier in process and not very dynamic when it comes to features. I find it difficult to readdress a task if an edit is required. Review Source AM Ashlynn M. Team Lead, Client Success Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Platform for Internal Mobility & Referral Programs" October 22, 2019 5.0 Pros Our company uses this platform for internal mobility & Referral programs. I love how interactive it is and how many visuals it allows for our company to include. It also allows for application processes to be simple and quick! I also love the settings that allow a user to see previous application history, as well as check progress on a referral. Cons N/A - I really have never had any issues with Avature. I love the system! Review Source MB Marsha B. HRIS Manager Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Avature the world is your Oyster" March 28, 2019 4.0 Pros If you want something highly customizable Avature is the right tool. There are many features and capabilities to allow of custom features and processes Cons Due the customizable nature it's difficult to navigate what will be the most efficient way to use the tool. Not until you deploy the tool, you find out the process may be to clunky. Review Source EW Eric W. recruiter Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "user review" August 23, 2018 3.0 seemed to be a ok ATS at the time Pros Used it a few years back at a large technical firm so not sure of its features now. Seemed to be a good tracking and searching system Cons seemed a bit unwieldy but perhaps that was because we were transferring from another ATS Review Source Similar Products Featured
