A stable solution, but it needs an updated interface and should allow for better integration
Pros and Cons
  • "The stability of the solution is good."
  • "I don't see very valuable features in this product because it has an old way of interpreting ATS. It should be more flexible in managing datasets and data searches. The screening data is a long process in Taleo."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution for recruitment.

What needs improvement?

I don't see very valuable features in this product because it has an old way of interpreting ATS. It should be more flexible in managing datasets and data searches. The screening data is a long process in Taleo.

The interface isn't so user-friendly. It's a little bit dated.

The next release should have an option for video interviews. Also, it would be helpful to have a more flexible and integrated system for scheduling follow-up interviews and appointments. We should be able to integrate more easily with other HR systems.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for one week.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability of the solution is good.

The initial setup was straightforward.

The mobile interface enables us to use it from anywhere; expedites on-boarding

What is most valuable?

  • Mobile interface
  • Ease of use

How has it helped my organization?

I think we have faster on-boarding time. It is mobile and you can use it anywhere. It's also more cost effective because it doesn't take as many people to do it. Employees can log in from where they're at.

What needs improvement?

The recruiting section needs work.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Sometimes there is a little bit of a lag, and maybe that was more because of our network. I haven't really had an issue with it from any device I was using. It's been pretty consistent.

How is customer service and technical support?

I haven't had to open any tickets.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I didn't because this is what my company had.

What other advice do I have?

Just keep it simple. Use the instructions and the prompts that you get. Follow the instructions from your HR or talent group.
