### "It's so helpful!!"

March 18, 2016

4.5

Pros

I like that it's easy to check on status's by the different "set stages"

Cons

I guess i'd say there are a lot of features, and new features added, although it serves a purpose, sometimes it's a little confusing.

I work in the IT Department for a Community Health Center. We have a very small HR department and a high volume of applicants. The old method of reviewing applicants required the HR staff to put in a lot of hours. I found ApplicantStack by accident using a Google search and I'm thrilled that I did. Our salesperson was more than that. She wasn't just selling a product, she trained us and supports us as well. I also recommend spending the extra money to have them "skin" the app board to match your existing website. This application is well worth the money and I would recommend it to anyone.

### "Absolutely a fantastic product."

March 19, 2016

4.5

Pros

Individual service. We have needed the application tweaked and changed based on our franchise needs in comparison with other areas, and our individual help (Crouse) has been nothing but professional and useful. The individual service requests are taken care of within hours, not days.

Cons

This is a great product. I have no complaints. Very easy to use.

### "Great"

April 25, 2018

4.0

Easy to navigate and easy to see cover letters and resumes.

Pros

Reasonably easy to set up a job posting and navigate. I was new to using Applicant Stack in January and figured it out quickly.

Cons

Challenges getting cover letters to export (like resumes). I don't think I am using the software to the best use it could be. I should sign up for a webinar but not enough time at the moment.

May 10, 2018

3.0

Pros

All the information was captured on the website and could easily contact the candidates through email.

Cons

All the information was not displayed in one page for the candidates (ex. resume, emails, etc) and had to keep going back and forth between tabs.

### "Efficient Tool"

December 20, 2019

4.0

We never used to get feedback from interviewers. Now, no one has an excuse. It only takes 5 minutes.

Pros

It is easy to use and an efficient use of time.

Cons

Would like more granularity and more room to put in qualitative information.

### "The product I prefer is ApplicantStack."

March 23, 2016

4.5

Pros

The software is user friendly and gives you a good overview of all the applicants that come in. There are several reports that you can run to get any data that might be needed for reporting.

Cons

I wish that the candidates that are placed in candidate pool would have their own tab so that I do not see that in all the active applications tab.

### "Saves Time"

December 11, 2019

5.0

Works great with keeping HR up-to-date on where I'm at in the hiring process without having to make phone calls or emails. Saves time having everything in one place and being able to see the progress of each candidate in one place.

Pros

I like having everything in one snapshot location.

Cons

I'd like the Review Resume Preview to have a print or download function.

Pros

It seems extremely easy for those people that are not familiar with technology.

Cons

The digits required for dates. A simple mm/dd/yy format would be much more user friendly. Instead of the mm/dd/yyyy format.

### "ApplicantStack"

October 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

I enjoy the ability to track my applicants and keep track of where they are in the process. Also the ability to send messages directly from the application is great.

### "Great Product"

March 24, 2016

5.0

Pros

This product is simple to use and makes going through applications really simple. I like being able to search and find any application I need to. It is also helpful to be able to track the entire life of the application. I am fairly new to this position and it is nice to still have notes and status changes on applications from before I came into this position. When an applicant calls to check on the status of their application it is nice to have that history there to look, especially when they applied before I started.

Cons

At times I think it would be easier if I could make my own deactivation reasons for times when none of the reasons fit why I am deactivating the applicant.

May 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

I find the dashboard/home page to be most useful in summarizing the jobs that we have open and the number applicants per job.

Cons

I find the email functionality to be difficult to use. I prefer to use As applicant Stack to download attachments and view applications but I default to my work email account to communicate with candidates.

September 5, 2018

5.0

I think this software provides more convience for users like myself. There is a great feature that allow Job alerts to be sent to subscribers. You don't have search for a job because available opportunities come right to your phone with a click to apply button. Awesomeness

Pros

I like the formatting and email alerts. It's a good way to keep up with available opportunities.

Cons

I haven't used the app long enough but I like what I've experienced so far.

May 10, 2018

4.0

Easy application reviewing.

Pros

Has all of the applications right in front of you and at your finger tips, and easy to use. Also it is a good feature how you can separate applications for interviews and others your not interested in.

Cons

Once applications are moved into the interview phase they are all mixed up and no way to tell which ones were higher on your list.

Between the user friendly aspects of the program and how it meets the needs of our company, our representative, Nathan Shackles is wonderful. I would highly send colleagues his way. He is one of the good assets to the program itself.

Pros

I will definitely recommend ApplicantStack to my network. It is a great program, user friendly, cost appropriate and customizing is easy!

Cons

I have yet to find a con to the progam. All programs have one or two (some a few more) but I have yet to find a limitation that I woudl consider a con.
