    CareerSiteBuilder
    If you have a job opening or a high turn around rate like we do. (we are a staffing company) [CareerSiteBuilder] is a great place to to start. It is affordable and reaches hundreds of potential employees. When you search resumes sometimes when you enter keywords you have to play around with it to find the right phrasing. Its not difficult just time consuming.

    Top Hat
    Top Hat is well suited for courses where students are comfortable with utilizing online learning management system as part of their course contents. It is more appropriate to use Top Hat as a stand-alone learning management system or if the school happens to have it integrated to the system. It is not recommended to use Top Hat and another platform or system for students as this would be too much for students.

    Top Hat
    • If students are paying, it's a confusing onboarding process for students and instructors and could be better streamlined.
    • The Android app not as well polished as iOS.
    • A better, free, or ad-supported model might be more palpable to students.
    • Integration directly with PowerPoint -- not requiring instructors to upload their slides to Top Hat.

    Top Hat
    Top Hat generally stacks up pretty well against other industry leading or popular learning management systems. Top Hat is comparable to learning management systems used in most educational institutions. The features such as allowing the educator to create an interactive experience by leveraging tools such as quizzes and polls is comparable. Data on student performance is also a helpful feature that is comparable to that of other similar learning management systems.

    Return on Investment
    CareerSiteBuilder
    • We have been able to present MORE candidates to our clients in the staffing industry, and therefore fill more positions.
    • We are able to find MORE QUALIFIED candidates using search features, to in turn fill more direct-hire positions.
    • We have to pay or Career Builder for thousands of people, so that takes away from ROI.

    Top Hat
    • One of the better ways to track attendance in a mostly secure and automated way.
    • Promotes more active learning, especially in large classrooms.
    • Unpopular if students have to pay.
