Brightmove vs. Vultus Recruit

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.

They need to improve a lot on their development side. The sales and marketing side does well to get clients but the development side is not able to compliment them in the way they represent it in front of the client. They need to work really hard on the UI/UX development side as the interface and experience are lacking a long way back. Other ATS in the market are way better. Vultus would be cheaper but they are nowhere near the competitors already available in the market. We saw a lesser rate and tried it for some time and we needed to switch back to our older ATS. So not a very good or pleasant experience with them but if they update and become a bit better then can have a good chance because they do good marketing. Also as they are cheap so the start-up company might prefer them but would be the first thing to be changed once the company goes into the higher revenue phase. Other than that they did not even have any extra thing, it was just like other ATS, and probably the better ones would be available than Vultus. Let's see how they go ahead and work out the tough competition in the market.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Their customer service was good
• They were always open for new suggestions
• They were ready to customize in any kind of pattern you want to set

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Their UI is very complex.
• Their UX is something like, on the first day you would miss your previous ATS.
• There is no ease of access
• Many options are for the same result, and reports are very deep inside the scrolls.

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

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.

The Info Tech conversion and implementation team was too small to meet our needs

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.

Vultus had no chance to stand against Ceipal or Bullhorn. Just their promotion and marketing team was good and secondly the customer service or the sales team. They showed us a good picture and gave us many options and also that we can customize it however we want. Also, it was cheaper than the other ones we were using. So we switched but literally after the training and all we started missing the prior ATS from which we switched to Vultus. The experience was not good, to be honest, and that was the reason we switched again from Vultus to Ceipal.

Incentivized

• 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.

• Doesn't want to be specific but we have lost manpower efficiency due to the complex scrolls and options.
• Database was not updated properly as there were fewer options to put in notes and had many unnecessary options.
• Reports generation was a big task because the options and scrolls were hard to find and also too many options.
• Very confusing and as i said many options did the same thing.
