Beamery vs. Gem

Well suited for organizations that are tracked and managing large amounts of candidates across open roles. They have really improved the overall product and it has a lot fewer technical issues, so big or small companies could find it useful.

Gem is a in my opinion a necessity for any TA team in this market. It's no longer possible to be competitive with just LinkedIn - it's easy for candidates to lose those messages. Gem allows you to get noticed by candidates and stay competitive in this market!

• The Chrome Extension could really use some work: very buggy and it's pretty common for candidates that are already in our system to not show up as such in the Extension.
• The internal searching features are limited: we have a massive database that is really hard to access.

• Gem's dashboards feature is still a work in progress. It's not incredibly intuitive and there aren't many ways to visualize data.
• There are often discrepancies between what's in the ATS and what's in Gem and it requires troubleshooting.
• It would be great if Gem could integrate with data from other sources such as LinkedIn Recruiter so we could see conversion rate data from there as well.
