When working with a VMS or MSP I must say PRO is one of the best to use. You are able to manage multiple clients within the same portal, very user-friendly, able to go to one location for all recruitment needs, management needs, sales and accounting needs. It helps organize recruitment needs and make sure that candidates are within budget. With this program, I do not have to worry about aging reports or outstanding invoices

Pros
PRO Unlimited
  • As compared to other VMSs out there, Wand does allow for more information to be entered. In particular, I don't like when there are little to no free-form fields in a VMS, as you cannot truly explain a candidate's experiences without free-form entry.
  • Notifications actually explain what is happening. Some VMSs send notifications that require you to login to see the activity. It's nice to see the info come directly to me in an email.

  • The contract management is so easy and clear, I can send new contract negotiations, also I use to use Rippling to make invoices but it and the need to update my payment information every month takes care by Rippling automatically
  • The platform is synchronized with third party software to track time so my reports are uploaded without intervention.
  • You can generate or review reports from tracking time directly, its so straightforward and the statistics can be obtained in any view that you will need.
  • All the news and request for me are notified in real time by email or popups in my phone, I don't lose anything that will need my attention in that platform.

Cons
PRO Unlimited
  • It would be helpful in the beginning to see if the opportunity is exempt or non-exempt
  • The timing out of session could be extended a few more minutes longer
  • When adding a candidates email
  • Easier way to update a candidates profile and updated resume

  • A little more visually appealing is something they could do, I do not like the color scheme of the platform so it is less pleasant to be on.
  • More personalization per user, while the platform is intuitive I think some people would like to personalize their portal more.

I like that the availability in using Rippling at any given time is useful to me. Getting on the site freely when I need gives me security of knowing that I can be in control of viewing health insurance and hours information. I have yet to get any errors in using the Rippling app.

Rippling's performance has been great, no errors or glitches yet so far. I am confident that Going from one page to the next and all its complexity usage does not lag or times out, it works effectively and efficiently. While using Rippling and other apps it does not tend to slow it down, works great. No complaints.

Quick, effective resolution, without adding unnecessary roadblocks and obstacles. Sometimes so many of the products hide their support behind multiple layers of unnecessary and wasteful handshakes. They ask repeatedly for name or email or phone or company code or any other number of identifiers, before answering something which could be as simple as the website link for Rippling.

Alternatives Considered

Again, I didn't specifically select the Wand system; our client selected it, and I work with it. However, I have used several VMSs as well, so I feel as though I can compare from a user perspective. Wand isn't great - I prefer Fieldglass for sure, mostly for it's simplicity. IQNavigator, Beeline, and PeopleFluent are all similar to Wand in that they tend to be over-complicated, with a lot of steps involved in the submittal process that aren't relevant to the hiring process. And none are all that intuitive. However, in my experience, the people at PRO are top-notch, and more helpful than almost any others from other VMSs with whom I have worked. I'm not sure if that is strictly a function of the client environment, or PRO itself, but it's worth remarking on.

Rippling is much better than Deltek Costpoint. Costpoint was not clear at all to use. Things were hard to find and understand. We also used to use so many different programs to find other information. Rippling streamlines everything in one convenient place, including all the information I need for my company.

I can go on here and see all my hours and pto plus health benefits. I like to have the work handbook handy to refer to legal things. How to work my role within it's limits. Being able to put in my hours and view when they are approved is a huge benefit for me.

Return on Investment
PRO Unlimited
  • Saves time on all aspects of organization
  • Only negative is that there is not a real connection with the managers from a Recruitment or Sales point of view - but understand they are prob bombarded by sales calls
  • Very helpful tool to keep process and procedures in place
