### "User friendly"

May 14, 2018

4.0

Easy tracking of applicants and the hiring process. Allows all supervisors to view applicants at same time. Has sped up the review of applicant process

Pros

It's easy to move an applicant through the hiring stages. I like that we can tailor categories to meet our needs.

Cons

I would like all notes to be saved to an applicant, regardless if we select global or not. Many users forget to select it and we lose their prior info.

### "The program is easy to use, but we had limited #s of manager allowed to use it at the same time."

April 19, 2018

4.0

Pros

Easy to use, so I didn't really need training to navigate it. Potential employees were able to use it easily

Cons

Sometimes the stage change function didn't work well... Wish that a single email could have had all the day's activity rather than multiples

### "ApplicantStack Usage"

October 16, 2018

5.0

Pretty great! Overall, it is intuitive and accomplishes probably more than I expected it to.

Pros

The quick and helpful customer service. They helped me within minutes when I was struggling to get an answer from our administrator.

Cons

That if you accidentally complete a task from the Feedback section, you continue to be reminded to complete the task until your administrator removes the task.

### "For the price...AMAZING!"

April 28, 2017

5.0

I have used other ATS systems with other companies and found this system to be very simple but with all the right capabilities. I would like to see different seminars such as recruiting laws and how to get better use out of the system based on recruiting requirements.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to train other to use, and very adaptable. Great for companies of any size! I have had no issues using the system or changing it to our specific needs.

Cons

I would like to be able to send an email to my managers with feedback forms so they can fill it out and it will show up in the candidates profile (Much like how I can send an email to the candidate with a questionnaire and it automatically uploads into their candidate profile). Now they have to log in and go to the profile to complete this action.

### ""User" access needs to increase"

April 20, 2021

5.0

Pros

The ease of posting a job and following up. Very friendly and all can use it off the bat!

Cons

Would like to have more Users to be able to review the job postings and share responsibilities. It's very hard to keep rotating different managers for jobs they need to follow up on. As an administrator, I cannot keep up on all the postings.

### "Great Customer Service Experiences for a Beginning User "

December 20, 2019

4.0

The times i've called Customer Service they have been very friendly, helpful, quick, and clear when explaining or setting up something for us.

Pros

Clean views that mostly make snese to use if not familiar with the program.

Cons

Some places there are too many or too few options. That's a confusing thing to say but I wish some features had more options and other featurers were simplified.

### "Applicants in one place at your finger tips. All the information you need/want."

May 31, 2018

4.0

Keeps my applicants in one place with all notes needed. I can refer back to stored applicants at any given time. I can send emails and set stages all in one place.

Pros

Lets me know what stage my applicants are. Notes allow me to keep track of conversations and progress.

Cons

I can't sort applicants the way I would like. I would like to be able to categorize in different ways.

### "Communication with Candidates is great, but seeing full history with company is not. "

December 10, 2019

3.0

Great for multiple users within an organization so you can pick up where someone left off.

Pros

I like the ability to add candidates to a posting. I like that other users logging in can see my correspondence with a candidate.

Cons

I don't like that if an applicant applies for another position, I can't see their entire history. Only their history with that posting.

December 16, 2019

This product allows job candidates to apply to our position electronically with ease. It also allows candidates to upload several documents that are being requested with the application. It is also quite easy for my staff to download applications and accompanying documents. I am also able to go back and reference past applications.

Pros

I most enjoy having everything from an applicant in one location.

Cons

Can't think of anything that we don't like about this product.

Great. Excellent help documentation on site with easy to search topics and videos, and customer service responds to help tickets fairly quickly.

Pros

Ease of use once it is set up, ability to customize many details to make it work for your specific jobs and needs

Cons

I honestly have no complaints. In fact I think we only use 25% of the actual capabilities of the software. I'm excited to keep using it as we grow and utilize the additional features. I

### "Functional for our organization; easy to use and affordable."

May 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

Ease of use, search and copy tools are easy to use. Ease of modification, adding questionnaires,

Cons

Presence on job boards. The product works well for an organization of 105 employees. We are not a government contractor that requires AAP tracking, but I do understand those reporting options are available. For a company that does not have excessive posting/openings, the product works well for the organization.

### "Applicant Stack Platform Review"

October 16, 2018

4.0

The overall benefit of applicant stack is really a time saver. The ability to track the applicant process stage is very important and gathering all the job search engines results in beyond helpful.

Pros

I think it it very helpful that all the information about the applicant is brought into one common place and all the information is somewhat easily accessible.

Cons

I dislike the some of the functionality of the platform. It feels dated and extra steps are required to get to certain areas when shorter clicks to achieve one destination seem necessary.

### "ApplicantStack has been great for our company, a real time saver."

March 18, 2016

4.5

Pros

ApplicantStack has been a huge time saver for us. It is nice to have all the information upfront so when we invite the candidate in to the office for an interview it can be more personable as we know about some of their experiences. Not to mention that they have already signed off on the background and drug testing.

Cons

Nothing that I can think of. Everything I use is very easy and quick to understand.
