    User Testimonials
    KintoneRecruit CRM
    Likelihood to Recommend
    Kintone
    I recommend Kintone for companies that need the ability to customize standalone applications or to provide a 'hub' to employees as a jumping-off point. I also recommend Kintone for any company that is drowning in spreadsheets, or is using 10 apps for 10 different purposes - you can consolidate everything into one place. Kintone, I think, needs a larger team for customization as your company grows. If you are a small office of 20 people, using it out of the box will likely be just fine for your needs. If you're working with 200 people out of an office, it'd likely be good to have someone with a bit of CSS, Java, and API experience in order to maximize what you get out of it - though you won't need that if you're keeping it simple.

    • Flexibility. You can build apps (without coding) to serve a wide range of processes and projects.
    • Ease of use. The interface is intuitive.
    • Training. There are resources readily available to train new users. Even starting from scratch, I felt like I was up to speed in just a few hours.

    Cons
    Kintone
    • Sometimes it's a little challenging to know which fields to enter and where. There is a little bit of a learning curve with creating your own apps.
    • More visuals would be great! I love seeing the data visually, and so does my board.
    • That's all I can think of - I really do enjoy the program.

    • They are adding a lot of features all the time which can be annoying
    • They are usually catching up with features that other programs have rather than being more innovative
    • Other than this, I do not really have any complaints about this software

    We have been quite happy with our use of Kintone thus far. We looked at several options before choosing Kintone and believe it had the best value and best features, while allowing for complete customization, rather than being locked into preformatted apps that may not address exactly what we need or be more than what we need.

    Usability
    Kintone
    I love everything bout it. I love that if there is something I don't feel is working well enough, we are able to change it. The ONLY thing I would say is that if you were able to make it so every time I click on anything in the website/app it stayed in the same page, that would be great, but I don' think it is possible and I think this is due to using so many external APIs

    There is always room for improvement and I believe RCRM is a great system that is adapting to what it's users want and need. The system suits our needs and is a huge improvement from our previous system. I can't say enough good things about the customer service. They have great follow up and always get back to me within the same day. If there is ever an unknown, there is a timeline given for follow up and a promise to get it resolved. They always come through. It's important to have a team behind your software that listens and adapts.

    I am very happy with Kintone and support it fully. I think that it is a great place for any company that wants to create a platform for better management. It is easy to use and pretty affordable. It is straightforward and has many tools that can be used by anyone. There are many helpful tutorials available too to guide users

    Again, the customer service team is awesome. They always respond in the same day and have resolved any issue I have ever had. They have made improvements to the system on a weekly basis, always improving for their users. There is a forum where you can leave your feature suggestions and vote on ones left by other users. The reps will jump on a call or screen share with you if you need to be walked through anything. They go above and beyond.

    Everyone has their own tastes of things and way they want to work. Asking them to adapt to the changes with the new tools or apps is always difficult. We would want to start with a very small but best example within the organization, which in our case was that the employees will not be bothered by the bosses by being asked to find the documents, status of the progresses, or major things/requests/projects.

    Kintone
    Kintone is the easiest product to create from and the cost is the lowest I believe. In addition, reconfigurability and extendability are great. If you look for a low code tool, you can try Kintone. But as same as another low code tool, don't expect too much.

    We evaluated about 3-5 different vendors. The low barrier to entry made it an easy target to test out. Forcing an upfront annual fee was not in our interest without extensively testing the product. We also had a very basic requirement - an easy way to intake a large number of candidates and move them through a recruitment process. We didn't need anything else special at the time and recruit CRM was the most straightforward application that would provide us with a solution.

    Return on Investment
    Kintone
    • It used to take us 15-20 minutes to create a quote for a client. It now takes less than 3.
    • It allows a few of our employees to work remotely, which was essentially impossible prior.
    • We can see raw data for success/failure rates, which we actively use in our employee review process.

    • Huge Impact on ROI (This is going from having no ATS to having an ATS)
    • Allowed us to focus more work on our user experiences rather than building our own tool to manage recruitment operations
    • Has allowed us to maintain a relatively low cost in our tooling
