Ducknowl vs. Modern Hire (discontinued)

Ducknowl team has all the features we needed, their team was very helpful in setting the account and we were live within 5 working days. We used it to hiring support team. It worked really great for these jobs since they were able to quickly short the resumes using keyword matching and also conduct one way video interviews in no time.

I've been a recruiter for more than 20 years, and I simply can't imagine working without Modern Hire at this point. Modern Hire has greatly increased my efficiency, leaving me more time to build relationships with candidates and hiring leaders. I can focus more on the consultative part of my position as opposed to spending time on administrative functions that Modern Hire easily handles.

Incentivized

• Resume Shorting
• One way video interviewing
• Good for all type of hiring like sales jobs, support jobs, technical jobs

• Allows prospective candidates to prepare for and submit recorded responses to established interview questions when it is most-convenient for their schedule (without having to take time off fro their current job, skip lunch, etc.).
• Modern Hire [formerly Montage] offers the ability to conduct both recorded and live video interviewing, allowing the flexibility to adopt whatever approach best fits the culture of the organization, the specific role, etc. We are finding that recorded interviews are terrific for initial or screening, and are great to then share with a hiring manager if there needs to be any calibration between s/he & HR/Talent Acquisition. The live interviews allow us to conduct interviews with candidates who may be applying from outside reasonable driving distance to the nearest Caravan Health office, while still providing an ability to observe important nonverbal cues of candidates.
• Customer support is strong, even offering a "concierge service" which is basically like having an extension of our IT department on the line/logged-in with us to ensure there are no technical issues during the interview.

Incentivized

• Assessments could be improved with more diverse options, especially for real estate industry.
• It can take some finagling to get the correct user access setup and running.
• Video interviewing feature is nice but can be built out more to compete with other conferencing tools that are cheaper, such as Google Meet.

Incentivized

• The customization of Modern Hire is minimal, hence, more challenging.
• The cost of Modern Hire is outrageous.
• Other recruitment and hiring options are credible.

I would revert to my previous answer where it has been an amazing support to our business speed, scalability, and support. My main concern has been data integrity which can affect and has affected our client relations.

I think it stacks up pretty well. There are some established names behind their competitors, and they have held their own. I selected Ducknowl as the best because of the features it has. The video portion of the software is superior to the other ones, and I think aside from a glitch here and there, their product is overall consistent, whereas their competitors have some notable flaws.

Modern Hire is comparable to all and [does not need] to [be] downloaded, [which adds] convenience. Modern Hire is our company-sponsored platform so I would not be able to select which platform the company uses.

Incentivized

• We needed a platform that could do video interviews and resume parsing, Ducknowl has everything we required in a single platform and at a great price.

• Timing out of interview
• Dial in code does not always work, has said invalid at times
• Constant need to log into platform, times out too soon
