HR Manager Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ClearCo Great ATS for Paylocity" April 22, 2026 5.0 Overall, ClearCo has been great to work with over the course of a few years, with the customer support we had for implementation and integration to join forces with Paylocity a key factor for why we continued to use it. Pros I really liked the ease of navigation in using the ClearCo Dashboard, helped all of us that had access in our Recruiting and HR team to at a glance see candiate process across all posted roles. It was nice to have workflows and notes to track candidates through the interview process for quick updates to leadership team. The integration and value for connecting with our HR System in Paylocity was crucial for us to have. Cons I wish it had onboarding integrations with Paylocity, this would increase process automation for us to a necessary level with our company's size and volume of onboarding. Alternatives considered [Paylocity](https://www.capterra.com/p/86714/WebPay/) Reason for choosing ClearCo Was more cost beneficial to go with ClearCo and had better developed dashboards and ATS then Paylocity offered at the time. Switched from [ADP Workforce Now](https://www.capterra.com/p/155895/WorkforceNow/) ClearCo provided a much better ATS system and dashboard navigation for ease of use to our recruiting team. We loved the candidate process and job postings, which really helped us improve our workflows not only internally but also more timely with candidates. Review Source KC Kenneth C. Vice President Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ClearCompany works as it should" March 8, 2026 4.0 I now have the ability to view the calendar and know who will be out before I plan my own vacation. I do not have to call HR to ask them to send me my previous pay stubs because they are already available in my account. It allows me to complete my performance review without opening up 5 different apps. Pros Here I sit with a now cold cup of coffee and found out that this time the Google login really did work without resetting my password. Not a bad idea having everything about me (salary & docs) in one place. Cons I am able to locate my tax documents (W-2), which is nearly impossible to do in ClearCompany and I normally spend 20 minutes searching every year for this document. In addition, I hate the monthly security code that you need to enter into your account. It is very repetitive for something that doesn't seem to serve a purpose. My "Stuff" tab has been blank the entire time I used Clear Company and it appears to be broken. Review Source AS Amber S. Business Administrator Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ClearCompany Overview" February 15, 2026 5.0 I’d say overall it is worth the money, even though it is on the pricier side compared to other platforms. I would recommend to others to use. Pros ClearCompany makes reviewing an employee for the hiring process very efficient and easy! You can specify what you are looking for when recruiting, which I have found useful. Cons I have found the customer support is not easy to get through to. It takes time to address questions and resolve issues. Review Source DC Denise C. HR Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Clear concise applicant tracking " December 31, 2025 5.0 Overall this is a clear concise applicant tracking system. Easy to track candidates and review applications. Pros Clear concise applicant tracking system. All team members can easily access applicant information and track status. Cons Integration into HRIS system. Can be a little difficult to to setup integration and get started but once everything is setup it is a very smooth system. Switched from [UKG Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/480/UKG-Pro/) Needed a more robust and clear applicant tracking system. Review Source Ashley M. Senior IT Director Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Top-tier talent management platform" April 9, 2025 5.0 By using TalentComp, we achieve more effective management of our staff and improve their performance. The platform assists us in identifying technical skills, evaluating competencies and performance, generating staff performance reports, and other tasks. Pros This solution includes a full range of functionalities for performance reviews, professional growth planning, equitable compensation, and retaining the most qualified employees. Cons I have not observed any negative aspects of using this platform. Review Source Nour S. CEO Alternative Medicine Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "The best review " March 1, 2026 5.0 I loved the overall experience and I will rate this as a 5/5 with utmost expectation and experience and I loved it ! Pros Value for money the process automation the hiring process as well as the recruitment process and the candidate interview! Cons I liked everything and nothing to the least I enjoyed everything and I had a great time ! Thank you for all ! Review Source JM Jeannene M. VP People Operations and Total Rewards Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Outstanding platform and collaborative partnership" January 2, 2025 4.0 Starting with our implementation team (Erin & Kate) were super patient, knowledgeable and responsive during the implementation then it continued thru all of the launches since. Pros For a company our size, it has helped in not only automating approvals and over all managing our quarterly bonus and annual merit cycles. It allows us to bring in additional data points from other systems (ie, performance ratings). While we desire to have an all-in-one platform for our people needs, we are not in a place that we can do so and CWS has been a huge improvement to our manual processes as we continue to want to evolve our programs. Cons The single sign-on continues to be an issue. Every cycle we have multiple people that get locked out of the platform. Reason for choosing ClearCo We had a consultant that was familiar with the platform and spoke highly of it, the pricing was something we could afford and the implementation time was reasonable for us. Switched from [SimplyMerit](https://www.capterra.com/p/182887/SimplyMerit/) The tool had no functionality, it was intended to be an interim (1 yr) solve that extended beyond that. The customer support degraded too. The SSO wasn't working either. Review Source Emma P. Computer Vision and AI Solutions Technical Leader Accounting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Comprehensive talent and compensation management platform." March 18, 2025 5.0 TalentComp is a comprehensive solution ranging from technical performance management to succession planning and compensation administration. Its specialization in technical roles, integration capabilities, and advanced analytics enable us to optimize our human resources management strategies within our teams. Pros The interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, offers tools to manage compensation and benefits efficiently, provides advanced analytics and customizable dashboards, and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. Cons It is an extremely effective tool, and I have no criticisms to offer. Review Source AJ Austin J. HR Data and Technology Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ClearCompany is Clear, Easy, and Simple" September 24, 2025 5.0 It's great, better than any alternative. Our TA professionals prefer it, and it has an easy enough learning curve that our managers can become trained to proficiently use it even without formal HR training backgrounds. Pros ClearCompany is the best ATS I have seen. It does what we need it to do, is reliable, and provides a great platform for different team members to collaborate and productively add new employees to the company. Cons Sometimes the integration we have between ClearCompany and our HRIS misbehaves, and we have to call it in for support. Because these are two different organizations, sometimes there is a little tail chasing, where one company says the problem resides with the other, and we get advised to troubleshoot with the other party. Eventually the problems always get solved, wherever they lie, but sometimes support is a little eager to delegate away when in reality they could help us if they took the time. Review Source JP Jessica P. HR Manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Loyal Clear Company User" August 14, 2024 4.0 We really enjoy using ClearCompany. We currently use it for our recruiting processes and peformance management and it's been working well! Pros Easy for applicants and employees to use. Easy to navigate. Automates a lot of our processes that used to be manual. Support staff is always available for questions or troubleshooting Cons There tends to be bugs occassionally (but I believe that's the case with most software so it's not uncommon).

Review Source DV Devon V. Training Manager Food Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Brainier - Finally a way to put your training front and center for your organization!" August 2, 2024 5.0 Overall great, from the product manager to product support, the Brainier team members truly care about your success in using the product and are there when you need them. Pros There are so many options to customize your site to fit your organization's needs. Brainier provides the most opportunities out of other LMS products to set up the effective training programs you have always wanted and finally put training front and center for your organization. Cons The product is a one-size-fits-all in a lot of ways, but the product continues to develop and offer new appearances and features. There are also a lot of options to set up a different training tools within the product, and more focused guidance from the Brainier team would probably help push teams to use the entire platform more dynamically. Alternatives considered [Udemy Business](https://www.capterra.com/p/209689/Udemy-for-Business/) Reason for choosing ClearCo Had a good reputation and great price point for the value we needed. Review Source DC Dee C. Director of Talent Acquisition Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Clear Company Review" August 19, 2024 3.0 It was good. We had some issues from time to time with the program in regards to reporting, and the onboarding capabilities Pros It was easy to modify and customize workflows Cons The onboarding module was not ideal. The custom documents was costly and not visually apealing. Alternatives considered [iCIMS Hire](https://www.capterra.com/p/93248/iCIMS-Recruit/) Reason for choosing ClearCo Ease of set up and the ability to customize workflows Switched from [Google Workspace](https://www.capterra.com/p/247901/Google-Workspace/) The program was being discontinued at the end of the month Review Source Response from ClearCompany August 20, 2024 Thank you for your feedback. We strive to make the best talent software and I'm sorry that we weren't able to meet all of your expectations with our onboarding tools. We're developing a number of exciting updates to onboarding right now, so be on the lookout for upcoming product announcements. In the meantime, your dedicated Customer Success Manager would be happy to work with you to make sure you get the most out of our platform. Thank you for choosing ClearCompany as your partner in talent management. MT Melinda T. Director of Security Security and Investigations Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Brainier Experience " August 5, 2024 5.0 Training reports didn’t work for me and Brainier stepped in, consulted with our Admin, and effectively assisted with resolving internal configuration issues with my role. Pros From a management viewpoint, having a suitable LMS is a value added one stop shop for our organizational training needs. Cons In US Government Contracting, Brainier’s solution to accept external required US Government training from https://securityawareness.usalearning.gov/ that requires US Government training certificate uploads is doable but improvements are needed. The three-step process is difficult to set up, trainees struggle and often need one on one assistance with uploading their certificates. Review Source JS Jen S. CHRO Automotive Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for first time LMS users" September 6, 2024 5.0 It's been easy to implement and provides robust options for all of our training needs. The customer support is top notch. Pros The setup and integration have been fairly easy. I enjoy the team at Brainier. Great customer service! The system itself is very robust. Cons If you host a virtual meeting in the Brainier platform there is no option to record the meeting. Review Source YV Yas V. General Manager Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Pleasant Surprise" August 9, 2024 5.0 Pleasantly surprise. This is my first time using it and I am already recommending it to other colleagues in the industry. Pros The efficiency of being able to do onboarding all electronically which means they don't have to spend the time to drive to the hotel just to fill out a piece of paper before they start their job. I also like how easy it is to keep track of candidates as they move down the pipeline in the hiring process, how you can text and email them right from the website, etc. Cons Nothing. I went through the onboarding process myself and now I am onboarding other associates, and I think the site is great!!! Review Source SS Shellee S. SVP Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "TalentComp" August 14, 2024 5.0 Impressed with setup and training. Initial setup was quicker than I thought it would be, and subsequent years implementation was very efficient. Probably one of the most customizable applications I've ever used. Easy to use for all managers, even those that were computer challenged! Pros Incredibly customizable. Support from CWS was prompt and accurate. Cons Nothing specific comes to mind other than I did need to make sure our internal IT department whitelisted the email domain from TalentComp, but that was more of a con on our end. Switched from [SAP SuccessFactors HCM](https://www.capterra.com/p/144575/SuccessFactors-Perform-and-Reward/) SuccessFactors was too complicated to maintain and for users, and costly. Review Source ML Mark L. Director, Training and Development Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Proof You Don’t Need To Spend A Lot Of Money To Get A Quality Product!" July 27, 2024 5.0 Pros Ease of use for both the users and the administrators. Cons There are still some features I would like to see added, but overall the current functionality meets all of my company’s needs. Review Source AP Alejandra P. Learning Experience Coordinator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Quest, Inc Brainier Review" August 1, 2024 4.0 My overall experience has been okay. Would have liked to receive more guidance during the implementation process. Pros It's user friendly. I like the different cards that can be displayed in the Front end. Cons The inability to delete assignments that I have made inactive. Review Source KB Kitrina B. Recruiter Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ClearCompany is a key to our Talent Management!" January 5, 2024 4.0 I really enjoy using this platform, and I login to it daily. It is easy to use and is always improving. There are even places you can customize your view (like in the candidate tearsheet) and I have found that useful! I also enjoy all the feature updates in their quarterly roundup videos. Pros I really enjoy the thoroughness of the ClearCo platform, the ease of implementation, our account and support teams, and the ease of use. I am definitely a power user of this platform in my company and I think it is really easy to follow along with a candidacy. We had a superb implementation team that addressed all of our concerns and helped with some items after. Since implementation we've reached out with many questions and enhancement requests to see what could be improved in the system - and while not everything changed, they were heard. I enjoy using this platform both as a Talent Management System and internally to track our org wide goals, personal goals, and the performance platform. Cons As with any software, there are bugs from time to time. A few times my support requests didn't make it through, and some integrations we wanted couldn't be made. However, our account team has been available to talk through many ideas and the platform is always improving. Switched from [iCIMS Hire](https://www.capterra.com/p/93248/iCIMS-Recruit/) iCIMS served as more of an applicant tracking system and was not as thorough as we were looking for. ClearCo provides much more depth in its platform. Review Source TH Torrey H. Recruiter Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Solid ATS And Great Return On Our Investment!" June 22, 2023 5.0 We've had a great experience with Clear Company. For us, our needs are pretty simple: we need to quickly post, attract, and hire candidates. Clear Company has consistently allowed us to do that. Pros Really user friendly with a lot of features. Very easy to post positions, access candidate profiles, and run reports. Customer service and ongoing webinars are excellent as well. Cons Not too much, we looked at several other ATSs when re-evaluating whether to continue with Clear Company, and none of the other products would have provided us any improvement or added value based on what our needs are. Reason for choosing ClearCo It was just as good as the other products and the pricing was competitive, if not better. Review Source KL Kim L. Senior Recruitment Consultant Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ClearCompany is the best introduction for new hire." February 5, 2024 5.0 Customization is easy and effective. ClearCompany is user friendly and saves us time and energy. It has also built the spirit of collaboration and team work. Pros I appreciate every step I make with ClearCompany. It is a user friendly way to engage with new hires in harmony and effectively. ClearCompany is a perfect match for my career and it acts as a baseline for my operations. For a while, I have benefited first hand and no regrets so far. It is a tool I would recommend to anyone. Cons The software is easy to use and surely easy to deploy. I don't have any challenging moments since the software is highly relatable easy to set up. Switched from [Breezy](https://www.capterra.com/p/141702/Breezy-HR/)[Top Echelon](https://www.capterra.com/p/84093/Top-Echelon/) In my journey as a Recruitment Consultant, I have not met a match for ClearCompany. In terms of ease of use, implementation and customization. It is the best. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director of Human Resources Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Better ATS/Onboarding Options" October 18, 2018 3.0 I migrated our HR/Recruiting department to ClearCompany from a more expensive Legacy ATS that was showing its age and cost much more. Beware of a few things. First, while they aren't a bad software suite, they aren't great, and suffer from not being particularly good in any one aspect compared to competitors, whether its functionality, features, price, etc. They do, however, have a great sales team that is prepared to sell their product as the next great thing. They also spent a lot of money on help modules (professional Youtube clips) and making their software aesthetically pleasing. However, when in actual use, the software is not as good as the image would lead you to believe. It is one of the more glitchy pieces of HR software I've ever used with experience in excess of over 10 ATS/HRIS/CRM/etc. Using it is not intuitive, from selecting dispositions, to making changes, to posting ads, to running reports. For the price, it in the lower half of pricing for equivalent ATS software packages, but on the high end of that, and each additional option and login costs a lot. There are a lot of competing products that are easier to use, less prone to malfunctions, and cheaper. While an HR department probably wouldn't hate this product, since it does work, there are absolutely better products in both directions, both at a higher price point with more functionality, as well as at lower price points with equivalent functionality. Pros The portal is aesthetically pleasing, with a very modern design approach. It is priced decently, although not great, cheaper than large vendors like Taleo, etc., but there are cheaper options that offer roughly the same functionality (and some better). They remain focused on compliance and update standardized forms. The Onboarding side is better than their ATS. Cons Nickel and dime for every extra item. Additional user seats are expensive. Data migration from previous ATS is expensive. Changes to the format, questions, dispositions, stages, etc. are not easy and it is hard to tailor to your company/department's specific individualized needs. In order to make it pretty, they made it very difficult to change formatting. In addition, if you require ClearCompany to make a change, it takes a while and costs a lot. Controls are pretty, but aren't intuitive. They are NOT GoogleforJobs compliant. When I last asked them for an update in 2017, they stated it wasn't necessary and had only the most vague understanding of why this was important. Their mobile optimization is horrible and frequently has issues. Their ATS is glitchy. Review Source YJ Yashovardhan J. Researcher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best for recruitment and onboarding to performance metrics and employee engagement." February 1, 2023 5.0 My overall experience with ClearCompany has been very positive. The platform is easy to use, and the customer support is really helpful and responsive. The integrations available for ClearCompany allow for easy integration between various tools, making it easy to manage and automate tasks related to onboarding and managing new hires. It also provides a comprehensive suite of tools for performance management. The cost is also quite reasonable, especially when compared to similar platforms. Pros Some of the most impactful features of ClearCompany include their onboarding and employee engagement platforms, performance tracking, and analytics. The platform is intuitive and easy to use, and the integration process with existing systems is seamless and simple. ClearCompany makes it easy to customize processes and workflow to fit the needs and goals of any organization. Cons The least liked aspect of ClearCompany was the lack of customization options for reports and data visualization. The templates for these features were basic and not very useful for more in-depth and detailed analysis. Additionally, it was also hard to set up and manage a centralized database for all our company data. Alternatives considered [Bullhorn ATS & CRM](https://www.capterra.com/p/140531/Bullhorn-Recruiting-Software/)[SmartRecruiters](https://www.capterra.com/p/123833/SmartRecruiters/)[PeopleFluent Learning](https://www.capterra.com/p/252322/PeopleFluent-Learning/) Reason for choosing ClearCo I chose ClearCompany because of its comprehensive HR and recruiting suite. ClearCompany offers a suite of services that improve the efficiency of the entire recruiting and onboarding process, including applicant tracking, background checks, onboarding tracking, job postings and more. It has a high degree of data security, and its customer service is top-notch. Additionally, ClearCompany is equipped with a reporting and analytics platform, which allows easy and clear visibility into recruitment and onboarding trends which can help shape future decisions. Additionally, its low cost of ownership compared to its competitors’ makes it one of the best value products on the market. Review Source KA Kristin A. Talent Acquisition Partner Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent ATS System With Great Functionaltiy" January 11, 2023 4.0 Overall I've been really impressed with this ATS system. I'd never used it before, and it is a very robust system with a lot of features. It was easy to learn, and it's easy to make minor changes to templates and forms when needed. The customer support is better than what I've experienced with other ATS systems. Pros It is easy to learn, has many features, and allows you to easily track applicants. We also use it to send offer letters, initiate onboarding activities, and schedule interviews. There are many features in one platform, and it is straightforward to learn how to use the features. We have a dedicated account manager whom we can contact when we have to escalate issues, and they also have an online chat feature with customer service. Cons Sometimes the reporting is not consistent with results after you run a query, and the applications sometimes get submitted in different formats based on the method the applicant uses to apply. Also, sometimes the customer service team doesn't give a complete answer to your question. Reason for choosing ClearCo I was not part of the process, but I believe it was due to the cost and the fact that it offers international recruiting functionality. Review Source TD Taylor D. Associate Director of Mobilization Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "So easy to use and has made our hiring flow a breeze!" June 23, 2020 5.0 Our team switched to ClearCompany after several frustrating years with another company. Our experience has been night and day different! ClearCompany is so easy to implement and use and the customer service is truly unmatched. We have never felt like a burden by the team, and they are very quick to help us troubleshoot issues or to answer questions. We've also been able to train and set up all of our hiring managers, and the ease of sharing applicant information throughout the office is so helpful. The cost is also very reasonable for the number of features provided! Pros It's so easy to use and it only takes a few minutes to train up new hiring managers/users. The scorecards are incredibly helpful for gathering information as well as keeping all notes in one place. Also, the ability to schedule interviews directly through the system was a GAME CHANGER for our team! Cons While there is an option to schedule multiple interviewers, that can only be done for back to back interviews. It would be helpful to have an option to add multiple interviews to the SAME interview block when looking to schedule things. That way, the calendar confirmations go to each person separately and we don't have to track or copy invites. Reason for choosing ClearCo Ultimately, it came down to price. With ClearCompany and our budget restrictions, we were able to get the greatest number of features and users. Also, the overall system is very clean and professional. The customer service could also not be beaten.
