SilkRoad Onboarding (RedCarpet) vs. Tribepad Applicant Tracking Software

I like the idea of RedCarpet. If it was fully functional for us, I really think it would be a great tool to use. However, the lack of response and the response time itself in tech support is definitely a downfall for our company

Highly recommended as a fairly priced, feature-rich ATS with plenty of customization and flexibility in a modular approach. Is it simple to use and an engaging platform. The support team is great!

• Employee Task Management: Red Carpet provides a customized welcome portal and system for task management, based upon each employee's location, role, department, etc. It allows the organization to build chronological tasks to complete on the front end, which seamlessly flows through as each are completed.
• Streamlined Process: During the development process, it causes the employer to re-think its current onboarding process, forms, reason and timing for completing tasks, etc. This results in not only creation of electronic forms, but also an improved overall process.
• Monitors workflow: Through visible tasks/colors on the back end, as well as reporting features, HR administrators and Managers/Supervisors can easily see where each employee is in their new hire process. Quickly view what tasks remain incomplete, as well as if an individual/team is causing a delay in the process.

• Customise
• Support
• Flexibility

• They have made major improvements to the user interface while we have been a customer but still have some work to do in this space.
• On the employee onboarding portal; some of the functionality could be more robust (ie: Broader Font Library; more customizable skin).

It takes a lot of training and reading up on the processes in order to use it, but once you've had a lot of trial and error, you figure out the system quickly. Once you put together a user guide specific for your company's use of the product, it's easier for new employees to use RedCarpet and understand the different functions within it.

We helped redesign the interface that best suits our brand. Tribepad is a great partner for us. They listen carefully to our requirements and we work collaboratively to solve challenges and build a better evolving product and experience.

Support is adequate. They are about the same, and the expected turn around time is acceptable in the industry standard. We have no complaints with customer support. The tracking system is good and allows for updates to issues, so there are generally no questions where the case may sit with engineering or application support.

The support is great. Tribepad is a very customer-oriented business that thrives on delivering and supporting its customers.

SilkRoad's training/demo video was viewed well prior to beginning implementation. HR Team did not remember details and the video was not sufficient enough to understand all of the features within the system in order to communicate needs to the vendor/implementation expert. Implementation should have been walked through, step by step, by the vendor and each section of their required spreadsheet and the development of the portal should have been explained in depth.

We have previewed several onboarding platforms, but none has come close to the quality and flexibility of SilkRoad Onboarding (RedCarpet). Prehire task management allows each department to do what they do best to prepare for the new hire's first day. Keys, computer access, and office spaces are prepared in advance, so each new hire feels valued.

More cost-effective, better product, flexible, customizable, integrates well with other platforms and its UX/UI is more advanced and simple

• Positive impact to ROI, we don't have hard numbers for overall but just in time spent on chasing paperwork I would say we save a minimum of 20 minutes per new hire and we hire 600+ people/year.
• We save an unknown amount on properly completed I9 forms since the system doesn't let you make errors that were always common on paper forms.
