### "Test Gorilla is exactly what we needed"

September 8, 2021

5.0

It's the perfect fix to our recruiting needs

Pros

I love that it's online, easy to use, there are so many options to customize an assessment, and It's accurate. The cost was great too.

Cons

I wish it integrated with Breezy.hr since this is what we use to filter through resumes

### "Ci troviamo molto bene per la selezione del personale"

July 9, 2023

5.0

Pros

Il più grande vantaggio di Test Gorilla è la possibilità di fare screening attraverso test valutativi delle competenze soft e di quelle hard. Con queste funzionalità è difficile sbagliarsi.

Cons

Il sito web non è così facile da navigare, occorre un pò di tempo di training per riuscire ad orientarsi correttamente

### "TestGorilla review by BitNinja"

March 8, 2022

4.0

TestGorilla helps a lot in our selection process.

Pros

The product is pretty useful for the purpose we use it for - mostly in the recruitment process. Integration to our process was easy enough, which is a great plus. More ATS integrations would help significantly, for now we use it separately.

Cons

Number of tests and more customisable questions, along with more ATS integrations would be highly useful.

Hi Dorka! Thanks for taking time to leave us your feedback. We are happy to hear that you found our product useful for your recruitment process :) We are currently expanding our ATS integrations, and have recently released integrations with Lever, JazzHR and Recruitee. A lot more are in the pipeline for 2022, so watch this space!

### "Could have been a helpful software if it worked and there was a customer service"

March 8, 2022

2.0

With virtually no existing customer service, a waste of money and effort and a damage to the reputation of the user. Stay away!

Pros

I liked the simplicity and the ease-of-use.

Cons

The administrator could not add a second email address for the recruiter because the recruiter had previously opened a demo account with TestGorilla. TestGorilla was not able to fix the problem and after a day, did not reply to any service requests by the administrator and the recruiter anymore. So a number of job openings ended up with the recruiter not beeing able to perform his duties and job applicants turned away. Besides, Myers Briggs personality test ("16 types") returned 3 times ESTJ out of 3 candidates. Questionable.

Hi Volker, thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback on your experience. We fully accept that you waited an unusually long period of time for your issue to be resolved. This was a period of increased ticket volumes, for various reasons, and it took us longer than normal to answer. This issue was solved on March 10 for you, 6 days after the ticket was submitted. We wish you the best with your hiring for the future, and hope that TG will be part of the process.

### "Recommended!"

August 11, 2022

5.0

Feedback from our ATS tells us that integration with TG is straightforward and simple and that was really important to us to have the testing and recruitment tracking all in one place. Communication with TG has been really good and regular.

Pros

I really enjoy the simplicity of using Test Gorilla, and the range of features that it offers. There are so many testing options that really support finding the right person for the right role.

Cons

Although not currently much of an issue, it may be that for large volume recruitment the tracking page may get very busy to co-ordinate. However that's hypothetical at the moment. There's nothing I don't currently like about TG!

### "Good if you can use it right"

July 14, 2021

5.0

It's good enough if you want to upgrade from shared docs.

Pros

The fact that it is easy to share between colleagues, downloadable, time-limited

Cons

Not all questions work for the respective topics. Oftentimes the question can not really assess the candidate

Reason for choosing TestGorilla

For the price, it gives the right value

### "Hire with confidence"

August 27, 2020

5.0

Taking job interviews while having the confidence of the candidates skillset

Pros

Instead of digging through 50+ resumes, you sort on candidates' test scores. Using testgorilla's assesment as an entry point for your selection procedure gives an amazing filter to only let smart, capable, candidates into your further procedure. I've both selected and not selected candidates that we otherwise would have missed, or would have been an unproductive use of our and their time. In the interviews we had with the top 5 test-takers we could focus solely on personality and culture fit, having the confidence already that a candidate can perform on a certain level. Moving forward, we will never post a job offer again without using a pre-selection assessment to filter candicates.

Cons

When used in comination with a job board, we've found candidates that did the test but did not apply, did apply but forgot the test, or did both as meant to happen. This lead to checking and comparing of both lists of people. This can be prevented by using Testgorilla as the main recruitment tool

### "Easy way to assess the skills of applicants"

July 9, 2021

4.0

Have helped to improve my recruiting process

Pros

It's very easy to use and it's not as troublesome and expensive as other alternatives. You can create an assessment for a role in less than 5 minutes. The scoring is very pertinent and it shows you how a candidate performs over different topics of a same area.

Cons

The ability to customize pre-made quizzes, for example in my case most of my applicants are not native English speakers and they take a little bit more time to understand the questions and scenarios, and really strong candidates tend to score very low at the end of the test because the time wasn't enough. I would like to customize the times per area of expertise or even each question, also I'd like to create custom-made tests using certain questions from the pre-made tests.

August 6, 2021

5.0

Very positive! Will being use this for hiring of all candidates.

Pros

Easy to set-up and use; non-biased screening of candidates.

Cons

Only negative was one of the tests - the Enneagram - the test results were not what we expected. Our organization follows the Enneagram and we do a lot of professional development around it. The results delivered did not match any of he styles we are familiar with.

### "Terrible experience"

October 4, 2023

1.0

I used Test Gorilla because I needed an easy and quick tool for the recruitment process. I paid the subscription and started to work with them.Unfortunately, months later, I noticed they charge for every possible assessment added and, moreover, they do not give you any alert for it.Not an email, not an alert during the creation of the assessment. They basically do their best to hide the cost of each assessment.I spent more than €600 because of this "veiled" UX. And you know what? they will not refund anything, for sure :) Terrible experience

Pros

The easy way to create an assessment.

Cons

Hidden costs.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to review TestGorilla. Some months ago we launched a new pricing structure; now all you get unlimited access to all our tests within your subscription, there are no add-ons of any kind. We're sorry you didn't have a great experience and do recommend reaching out to our Customer Success team for assistance. Looking forward to hearing from you!

### "Horrible experience"

April 18, 2022

2.0

Downright horrible

Pros

Not much. They charge for something that is mostly for free

Cons

The entire software really. The tests are not predictive for performance. The customer service is non-existent, they don't even allow you to cancel your subscription or delete your profile. All you can do is change to a free plan. Naturally, if you are that bad you do not want to see customers go that fast

July 9, 2021

4.0

Always some room for improvement for every software, however I tested multiple competitors and found TestGorilla to provide the best experience for the assessment taker which was our highest priority.

Pros

We choose TestGorilla for it's expansive test library and user experience.

Cons

It's fairly new so still developing, looking forward to feature updates in the future.

### "Avoid"

June 20, 2022

2.0

They got paid

Pros

The tests are easy to set up but the quality of them is questionable and the goal seems to be to lock you into a long term contract.

Cons

Technical tests are lacking and not on a level with the competition. The customer service policy seems to be to tell you what you want to hear until you're off the phone then send you an email to the contrary. I wouldn't recommend this product at all and would strongly suggest using only the free trial if essential. They require payment upfront and are not willing to have a constructive discussion about returning any of that money in the event the product doesn't live up to expectation.

Review Source

Response from TestGorilla

July 5, 2022

Hi Ian, I'm sorry to hear that you don't feel that our platform is up to standard regarding technical tests. The reason we allow internal testing of all tests on the free plan is to encourage customers to try out the tests, prior to purchase of a paid plan. This means you and your team can assess the content and the features available without having to buy anything upfront. Nevertheless, we wish you the best with your hiring and hope that you can find the best candidates for your available positions!

### "Great product and great value for money for short period use."

July 11, 2021

5.0

It was easy and good value for money so I will use it again this year and have recommended it.

Pros

Ease of set up, simple to read and analyse results, good management tools and excellent price as I could stop the subscription after one month when I was finished testing.

Cons

some seemed a little short - too many questions for the time frame.

Reason for choosing TestGorilla

It was cheaper and I could pay the subscription just for the month I needed it.

January 31, 2022

Pros

TestGorilla had a great library of tests of the roles we usually look for.

Cons

At first, we didn't like that the questions for each candidate weren't viewable. We later understood that this makes sense in order to minimize the chances of cheating.

Hi Jaime! Thanks a lot for taking the time to leave us a review :) Happy to hear that you are enjoying your experience with TG so far!

It means that you are seeing the true measure of your candidates abilities when they take one of our assessments, as you can be sure they are not cheating!

### "Good tool for candidate testing"

November 23, 2021

5.0

TestGorilla site is easy to use for English speakers, we mostly use it for use language assessment but because narrow choice of languages we also have to use other service providers.

Pros

Quick way to send several tests at one and make your own assessment. Possibility to send the reminder. Good customer support.

Cons

Because of some banking security certificate problems TestGorilla had, there was not possible to pay with card ad the pre-payment invoice was a cost of "gold". Narrow choice of language tests.

Reason for choosing TestGorilla

Because of some certain languages (e.g Spanish) but as TestGorilla doesn´t have some other languages (like Russian or Finnish) we also have to use other assessment tools.

### "Its a great tool to assess candidates "

September 13, 2022

5.0

Benefits of using test gorilla, would be a much smoother screening process.

Pros

Its a good tool to assess candidates before interviewing. It has saved the company I work for a lot of time during the screening phase of recruitment. You get a lot more information from your candidates.

Cons

Based on feedback from candidates, they have complained about not being able to complete an assessment due to the time constraint, I think granting an additional five minutes to candidates for certain assessments (not all), would be beneficial to us the employer as the data of a persons results would be more accurate. Could also be cheaper for returning customer!

Reason for choosing TestGorilla

while researching on the wed for a website for assessments for recruiting, I found test Gorilla. Before that we had no other alternative. #Where have you been all my life test gorilla!

### "Valuable tool to take unbiased decisions while hiring people"

January 17, 2021

4.0

I was looking for a candidate with average numerical skills. Testgorilla helped me to waste time and interview people without that skill. Moreover, I am submitting the test before doing the first interview. If the candidate is not taking the time to do the test, he is probably not interested in the job position, and I am not wasting my time with him.

Pros

There are plenty of tests. It is so easy to submit them to the candidates.

Cons

I did not get any notice when candidates ended the tests. Besides most of the time, the test seems to be not ended yet, but in reality, the candidate was done.

### "Recruiting process made easy"

December 31, 2020

5.0

Our company saved a good amount of time and money when we externalized the recruiting to TestGorilla. We were positively surprised by the popularity of our job opening, and it would have been impossible to go through the applications manually as we are a small team. Now all the applicants received a fair chance and we've got an awesome new team member.

Pros

I appreciate the fact that we were able to modify the Test Gorilla to suit the needs of our company – personalized package that fit with our niche. With over 1,000 candidates it saved me hours and hours of individually going through and evaluating each applicant, and when our process was based on the test results, it really made the process bias-free.

Cons

I have requested for the option to communicate to the applicants via system; to send a group mail for people who were not chosen to continue. I'm sure my feedback has been heard and I will see this feature in the future.

Review Source

Response from TestGorilla

January 19, 2021

Thanks, Milla! Glad to hear that TestGorilla's flexibility has helped you save so much time! We currently have a feature to send rejection emails to candidates. (Here's the associated help article: https://help.testgorilla.com/how-do-i-reject-candidates-through-testgorilla). You can also send the assessment results to candidates through the platform. You can do that with the press of a button and decide to which candidates they want to send it. (You can customize the email too.) We also have a feature to select candidates and perform bulk actions like that on our roadmap. Thanks again for the kind words!
