With SmartRecruiters, compatibility with other HRIS systems is an area with certain shortcomings that require improvement. SmartRecruiters is a tool that we use as an ATS platform in our company, but we manage the employee lifecycle with the help of SAP, and I don't see the integration of SmartRecruiters with SAP happening quite seamlessly, making it an area where improvements are required.

There are a couple of areas of improvement. SmartRecruiter lacks certain features in terms of usability. For instance, we cannot move candidate profiles, interview feedback, notes, and activities related to one candidate when transitioning from one job to another. We have to manually copy and paste everything for that specific candidate. This is a significant drawback. Additionally, the filters are not accurate. The results are inaccurate when filtering multiple criteria, such as country and hiring manager. This level of inaccuracy is unexpected for an application, especially for smaller organizations. It should have been corrected easily. Moreover, the CRM module lacks video reporting capabilities. These are some the biggest improvement I would like to see.

SmartRecruiters is one of the best ATS systems on the market. Since it is expensive, most of the companies might decide not to pay all that money only for ATS purposes. Using SmartRecruiters makes sense for a heavily recruiting company that needs something more sophisticated. Most companies would use an overall HR system like Workday or Workable with one candidate management function. Overall, I rate SmartRecruiters an eight out of ten.

Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that amongst all the other ATS platforms that I have used, SmartRecruiters is the most user-friendly tool."
"SmartRecruiters is a candidate management system or ATS system that we use for recruitment purposes."
"With just a click of a button, we can manage the process. Even generating offer letters and obtaining electronic signatures through DocSign are integrated into this application."

Room for Improvement

"I don't see the integration of SmartRecruiters with SAP happening quite seamlessly, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The solution's reporting feature could be improved because it is not very strong."
"The filters are not accurate. The results are inaccurate when filtering multiple criteria, such as country and hiring manager."

Pricing

"SmartRecruiters is an expensive solution."
"I wasn't involved in its acquisition, but I would assume that SmartRecruiters is pretty pricey."
"They are pretty competitive. As the product matures, it has much more functionality and different pricing models. It can relatively cost a lot more if you want to use additional features, but, in general, it is competitive in the industry.We work on a yearly license agreement based on the company size. There are the support costs, which are a part of the additional cost based on the percentage of the licensing fee. So, it has a license plus support cost. Then, of course, there are other add-on options that we can purchase and procure whenever we want to based on certain negotiated arrangements."
