Likelihood to Recommend
Crelate Inc.
There is definitely a little bit of a learning curve (but this would be with any platform) but what we have loved most is the ability to centralize both relationship management and workflows. We feel it has given us much better visibility into our pipeline.We love that the platform is highly customizable (with the help of our customer success manager) which has allowed us recreate workflows that have already worked for our team and has been easy to use for our new team memebrs

When we partnered with ICIMS in 2018, it met our needs. 8 years later, I think ICIMS can offer more. AI needs to be incorporated into its system to better service its customers. The other recommendation is that they should offer training and communicate more often with their clients. Their dashboard should also be improved to make it easier on the eyes.

Pros
Crelate Inc.

  • The opt-out message after the 1st text helps weed out the people who are not interested.
  • Having the ability to have templates/answers to frequent questions saved and ready to use makes it easier/faster to talk to multiple people.
  • Being able to schedule text campaigns is amazing. Every Saturday I set up my campaigns for the next week. This gives me more time to focus on other things.

Cons
Crelate Inc.
  • The Crelate ad response can be pretty touch and go. Crelate should be able to identify similar emails and phone numbers and replace them into the stage they were in.
  • Crelate needs to have better interface with job board sites such as Indeed, Glassdoor, LinkedIn, etc.

  • It is a little difficult to track internal applicants that are already active with our company.
  • Some of the fields when hiring an employee are a little difficult to change.
  • Not a sure way of identifying "eligible for rehire" within iCIMS for those that re-apply.

It works, but not sure that it's the best/we might try out alternatives first.

We would highly likely renew iCIMS Hire because it consistently delivers strong value across our recruiting process. It streamlines workflows, improves collaboration between teams, and provides reliable reporting and insights. The system is scalable, user-friendly, and continues to evolve with new features, making it a dependable long-term solution for our hiring needs.

Usability
Crelate Inc.
Like said earlier there is definitely a little bit of a learning curve but support and CS is wonderful to work with. Our team trainings have helped significantly. The ui is really easy to navigate as well, a little outdated but easy to navigate but they are in the process of improving it I believe.

ICIMS
I would give it a 9.5 rating, if allowed because despite several gaps, the user's (candidate) feedback to us has been consistently within the 9-10 range, in the past year. The tool is clean, branded and efficient for the people we recruit and who apply to our job openings. It serves our needs extremely well and I for one, wouldn't replace it at the moment, given our hiring needs. It does have some reporting misses and the Mobile app is down to a 4 - however, the results we're seeing overshadow its functionality challenges

There is always ample advance notice before the software goes down for maintenance and this is usually done at off-peak hours. As for system failures - I can't think of any that have effected us in over two years od use.

We can think of no dissatisfaction with our daily use of iCims, involving its response time to commands or incompatibility with any other software we presently use.

Support Rating
Crelate Inc.
Usually the Crelate support is very responsive and quick to fix any problems that arise. I've personally seen emails of the threads where Crelate support was quick to resolve problems and act courteously while doing so. While I have never called their line, it seems that their phone support is also well experienced.

Before pandemic and iCIMS Talent Cloud acquisitions I would give 10 without a doubt. Unfortunately, I see a strong decrease in the support model, which seems to be mainly connected with the fact that acquired companies/tools/features need to be integrated with the platform, and knowledge of newly provided services and tools were not yet incorporated fully into the support.

I would say I believe iCims online training is very good. It's informative, visually appealing, and simple in explaining all the different aspects of iCims. I also really like the new candidate onboarding, and all the other training curricula you have up to be able to inform or send out to the candidate. I like you can attach a URL link for videos as well so you can really customize the training. I feel that overall, I would like to see more. Perhaps, more robust options with the training, if that's something iCims is expanding on in the future.

Fully available automation, lesser bad data quality, more information is gathered at the time of applicant profile creation without having the need to ask for any follow ups or additional notifications. Integrates better with Oracle, Workday and SAP than other similar systems. Service tickets are resolved faster than other vendors we worked with.
