RS
User friendly with good features and offers very flexible packages for small to medium-sized companies
The job listings are the most valuable aspect of the solution. We don't do much reporting out of it, however, we do do it mainly for the source data to understand where our applicants are coming from. Applicants list the source when they apply for the job. That's really the only thing that we use for reporting - the source data. We pull that on a quarterly basis. Otherwise, it's really just the job postings and then viewing the application, screening them out, moving them throughout the hiring process with the different statuses, and then the pre-employment screening, which is done through ProScreening. The product has a very good flow. The solution is really user-friendly and is just super easy. The application takes five minutes or less than 10 minutes. The process is super smooth. The product has a good set of features. Everything you expect to need, they seem to have.

Good documentation and customization with fairly straightforward setup
If reporting could be more robust, that would be phenomenal. Any time you're obviously dumping into Excel and having to manually manipulate data it takes time. It would be great if we could do everything in the platform. They do offer some great products. I wish it was all bundled together. They have an Offer Suite you have to pay additional for, which would be great if it was included with their initial product. There are items as a system admin we should have access to change. I do believe iCIMS is working on a certificate solution, where we would be allowed to make some of those changes ourselves.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product has a good set of features. Everything you expect to need, they seem to have."
"To be honest, I enjoyed all of the features provided by ApplicantPro. But most of all, I really enjoyed using it to post applications and job descriptions and to mark the statuses of applicants. Those are the things I found most useful."
"The solution offers good customization and good dashboards."
 

Cons

"In terms of extra features, I would suggest a general human resources information system where I could actually enter information about those we hired, including the benefits information, and have the benefits information linked to the benefit vendor websites, like for medical, dental, and vision."
"It could be easier to remove applicants in bulk."
"If reporting could be more robust, that would be phenomenal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We had to pay an annual fee to use ApplicantPro, and the license fee included everything we needed except for the ability to post confidential positions, which was something we had to pay extra for."
