CodeSignal vs. Edsby

If you hire for IT or Software development based roles, I can absolutely recommend this. It will improve the quality of candidates you are filtering through in your process and you will be able to add stakeholders early into the hiring process to make it more efficient. Pricing is very reasonable too so its not out of reach for even smaller organizations. Generally speaking though, if you dont hire in bulk for Software Developers etc, then maybe its not for you.

Edsby is well-suited for day-to-day communication with students, either in the classroom, or at home. It makes planning course progression easier because of the built in day-by-day calendar for the semester. It is transferable, so the work one does in one semester can be copied over to the next, and modified as needed. Students can see the Lesson Plan which is projected onto the SmartBoard, but the font is quite small so they cannot read it from where they are sitting, so I use SmartNotes which has a larger font and then, if needed, attach that note to the Edsby day lesson planner.

• The test cases are quite well-written, and the grade we earn as a result of them is very fair. Users can use a unit testing tool to perform their own unit testing, allowing them to double-check their code before submitting it.
• Intensive technical interview preparation
• The online evaluation option is an excellent approach to assess candidates.
• Simple UI for Simple Operations

• Edsby is extremely easy to learn and use.
• Students love the "social media" feel to Edsby.

• The platform should provide candidates with detailed feedback, allowing them to identify areas for improvement if necessary.
• Furthermore, despite the fact that the assessment is complete, the platform prioritizes speed. In order to finish the assignment on time, people may be forced to forgo quality or desired output.
• They should improve the question selection procedure, as some of the questions are too long to finish in the allocated time.

• Edsby shows the last time a user logged on. Unfortunately, if someone doesn't log out you have no way of knowing if someone has seen a recent post or is really using Edsby to its potential.

I give it this rating because it is very easy to use. Not only that it is proctored and trusted. Moreover, the candidates find it easy to use given that it is a single test. This means that we get much more applications than using other platforms. This helps us to hire better faster and easier with codesignal.

The UI of configuring CodeSignal for a non-technical screener can be tricky to navigate at first. Once you get the hang of the platform and how to master customization, it becomes a much smoother experience. However, some restrictions to search functions and reporting still need improvement.

Everything is easy to use and well as being overly user-friendly to your average student.

Yes, the staff has been very quick

I am not sure whether or not they have replaced but surely emerged as a big competitor. Their support system should be good knowing that they are in completion with the best hackerrank. I feel they could do a much better job but I have not used their support much

It has clear details for every staff to understand the basic, and staffs can communicate efficiently to provide strong backgrounds. Also, the manager who provided this training has collaborated well with the Codesignal staff so that everyone could learn more about CodeSignal and look at it from different users' perspectives. So the training was really helpful

CodeSignal's platform is the best in almost every aspect. It provides a nice user-friendly environment. The functionalities the environment provides are the best. It is a nice cheating-free platform that is very easy to understand and use. The scores provided are normalized and the range of scores provided is really easy to understand.

EDSBY was piloted at the school last semester, and I found it made my job easier, which is a boon since time is fleeting and I could get more done with less effort with Edsby. After the pilot the entire school district was signed up to use Edsby. I like it very much. I did use a blog on First Class which was extremely difficult to learn, and a blog on WordPress which was easier to learn how to use but not interactive like Edsby is. To my mind, Edsby is far superior to the former.

It works on multiple departments.

• It has been advantageous in terms of saving time for our interviewees due to its simpler approach.
• My coding abilities have greatly improved and continue to aid me in the interviews process.
• The User Interface has caused me to spend more time on this application and has prompted me to discover new and more productive development techniques.

• For the most part, teachers, parents and students love the system. It provides easy access to the information that they need when they need it.
