Likelihood to Recommend If you want a full-service ATS and will use the tool to post jobs and track candidates, Brightmove is a very solid tool. They are adding functionality and making it more robust. In our case, we ended up just using it for resume repository and management and so the solution essentially outgrew us such that the price structure and options are no longer competitive or make as much sense as when we first started using the tool.
Read full review Well suited for Big organizations where recruitment is a daily task. Understanding of Greenhouse workings is simple and it is not difficult to train people who use it for first time. Greenhouse is less appropriate if you are looking for sharing offer letters or doing employee onboarding. Did not had a great experience in doing that
Read full review Pros Brightmove is intuitive and easy to learn and to use. It interfaces well with social media. Brightmove has good capabilities to build interfaces to other systems, such as a background checking system. In addition, Brightmove has a good record of being available. Read full review Customization of interview plans, questions, interviewer roles for multiple positions Manages efficient and timely candidate, hiring manager, and interviewer communication Integrates with other tools needed in the hiring process such as sourcing tools and onboarding systems Provides analytics and reporting to allow for data insights and process improvements Provides an Onboarding feature that makes the hiring cycle seamless from first interview to hire date Read full review Cons Brightmove could offer more detailed and user friendly reports. Brightmove could add more screening questions to applicants when they are applying to a job. The feature that is already there is not really useful. Brightmove needs to separate internal applicants from external applicants. Read full review Greenhouse Security is simple, but not that granular. For example, everytime new recruiter joins, we have to give them access manually one by one. There is no one click or an easy way to auto assign security unlike other systems that we use such as Workday. Greenhouse reporting is very lacking. Even though we are on the highest tier, we cannot extract data through this delivered feature. For example, scorecard custom questions. We have to do this through SQL. Greenhouse Audit Log is also lacking. It is not useful at all. We cannot even see what job info changed and who changed it even though we are on the highest tier now. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Brightmove has worked well as we are a company with 120 employees. For as long as we stay around this size, we will continue with Brightmove, but as we grow we will start looking for an ATS that can directly tie into our CRM (NetSuite). The price point is great for the functionality when compared to other ATS solutions
Read full review we are gaining more by in from our hiring managers and candidates seem to like the ease of getting us interview times etc
Read full review Usability Greenhouse's user-friendly interface, efficient workflows, and integration capabilities with other HR tools make it a powerful tool for our company, helping us streamline our hiring and onboarding processes. With its customizable workflow and intuitive design, Greenhouse allows us to create a hiring process that suits their specific needs and requirements, without the need for extensive coding or technical expertise. Moreover, Greenhouse's integration capabilities with other HR tools enable us to centralise our hiring and onboarding data, making it easier to access and analyse applicant information, and reducing the risk of data loss or errors.
Read full review Support Rating The Customer Support is the best part of using this ATS vs others. They have a chat feature on the home page where you can ask a question and have a Customer Service rep help you in less than a minute. I have found that to be invaluable and a life saver on several occasions. I'm not sure you get that kind of service from a bigger ATS provider.
Read full review I have never needed to call Greenhouse for support. I am not the primary account holder, nor do I use Greenhouse enough to merit calling support. I delegate that responsibility to the Recruiting team. They have never mentioned any experience with Greenhouse technical support, either bad or good. I would assume that they would tell me if the support was poor.
Read full review Implementation Rating The Info Tech conversion and implementation team was too small to meet our needs
Read full review I think we could have used more delivered functionality and less customized which now results in more maintenance
Read full review Alternatives Considered Brightmove seems to be pretty similar to Vurv, but overall the functionality of the other systems I have used has been better. I didn't select to implement Brightmove, it was already in place when I joined the company.
Read full review Tools appears very light to use. It does not take forever to load. the interface is very simple but capable, unlike many ATS's. The tools is Simple yet loaded with very useful functionalities that save a lot of time and expedites the processes. For different stakeholders, the tools works accordingly.
Read full review Return on Investment Positive ROI in terms of time spent by our recruiting team. Our old ATS was clunky and forced users to spend more time on mundane tasks. Positive ROI in terms of connecting without outside job boards and finding job candidates. Positive ROI in terms of motivating our team by seeing their numbers in an easy to understand/read dashboard.
