ApplicantStack by SwipeClock vs. Big Biller

ApplicantStack is an excellent tool for managing applicants and recruitment efforts. It allows multiple users to access data and stay informed of the status of recruitment projects.

Big Biller is well suited for pipeline maintenance and tracking. It is not as appropriate when the business is more stagnant and pipeline tracking is not necessary.

• When you search for candidates in a big database, and want to reach them all at once via email. Big Biller provides you with the platform to build a database.
• Big Biller provides you the option to select candidates within a certain region of the country or even within a certain mile radius from a city or zip code.
• Big Biller allows you to narrow down searches to candidates who have completed certain Educational levels.

• Could have additional choices of what job boards you can post to.
• Ability to integrate to more ATS systems and Social Media Platforms.

• I'd make sure that when trading partners re-post TE colleagues' jobs that the compensation information isn't removed.
• Make it easier to report the placement of a colleague's applicant, who was never on Big Biller and/or was associated with a job order on Big Biller. A General Placement Reporting form. If it already exists, make it easier to find.
• Don't know if it's possible, but find a way to stop candidates from applying for the same job over and over and over again. I've had one candidate in particular, who keeps applying for my job via every other recruiter, who has reposted my Job Order. He is overseas and he has bombarded me with his applications for my job. I can't consider him, and I've even emailed him to stop, but he is still applying for the job. I'm beginning to think he isn't real and that his applications are actually a kind of algorithm from some kind of phishing or hacking effort.

I would consider using Big Biller again, but they would have to make some technology changes. There are many features that come standard with most of their competitors that are not available with Big Biller.

ApplicantStack support is outstanding. Any issue that I have ever encountered is handled within a day by their support team. There are very rarely issues that come up, and they typically stem from a user error, but the ApplicantStack team is always ready to help and solve the issues that arise.

Incentivized

Support is near-instantaneous and personal. The tech support team is small, which means I always know who I am talking with, and they know me.

Incentivized

Applicantstack offered a high level of customization for us, at a price point their competitors couldn't touch. While it's got some room for improvement in reporting, we've been able to fill every gap with custom programming at an incredibly reasonable rate.

I choose BB over other ATS systems for 3 reasons - 1) Most of the other systems didn't have an integrated business development system and 2) BB provided great training and customer service during the initial trial and afterward. Lots of help getting started, ongoing training and support. 3) Constant updates - BB listens to its customers and when we ask for something to be tweaked, they have responded with updates.

• We want to see more applications. Most months, it would be impractical to have all those papers on our recruiter's desk. I cannot imagine going back to paper after using ApplicantStack.

Incentivized

• We moved to Big Biller from a home grown system and there is no comparison.
• Big Biller helps me keep track of all my candidates and clients and job order projects.
