SilkRoad offers OpenHire, a recruiting and ATS system. It offers recruiting access through social media channels, data security, and EEO compliance for mid-sized to large businesses. It is a component of SilkRoad’s Lifesuite product line.
Despite using ADP as our HRIS, we are moving our sister company from ADP talent to SilkRoad because we prefer it. It has better functionality and is easier to use.
SilkRoad is definitely an improvement from the previous two [products] we have used. We selected SilkRoad Recruiting because it boasted more features than we were looking for at the time and it also tied into the SilkRoad HRMS system.
NeoGov is a more simple system but just being able to require specific documents has been a huge time saver for us. Other elements in NeoGov aren't as robust but still it saves me a lot of time compared to OpenHire.
We also evaluated ADP Virtual Edge. OpenHire looked much nicer, had better functionality and was $30k less. It was so much less that we were able to get Silkroad's RedCarpet system as well.
I have personally used Brass Ring, Oracle and OpenHire. Of the three OpenHire has provided to most flexible applicant management system. The customization of company specific websites separates OpenHire from the competition.
I can only really discuss the differences from a candidate side in applying for different roles. OpenHire tends to have a very general styling about it and the application process, while fully customizable to a business' needs, can be a bit cumbersome whereas other applicant …
Recruit soft, RecruitMax, what is now Taleo, Kenexa. To be frank, at the time, Openhire was the most cost effective, and it allowed a large amount of users who worked remotely, without having to go to company servers to use the system.
OpenHire completely streamlined the recruitment process and allowed us to manage the candidates as well as feedback from HM etc. ADP was very aniquated and frustrating to use from a recruitment process. The reporting was awful and it wasn't easy to manage. Definitely not a good …
I think that UltiPro is much more user friendly. I have only worked through one module but it was very easy and seemed to provide me with all of the information I needed. It seems the hiring managers will have more flexibility to assist with the recruiting piece, which is …
OpenHire is not nearly as advanced as Kenexa and is probably more on par with iCIMS. I did find iCIMS had some additional functionality and was easier to use than OpenHire. OpenHire's system seems much more fragmented, requiring work arounds than either of the others. I also …
I would have to say most Applicant Tracking Systems are very similar. I did find OpenHire easier to add managers to the system than I have in Taleo. I could easily give managers access to be included in the interview process, provide feedback, etc.
OpenHire is more straight forward because it caters to smaller organizations and does not have the features that Oracle does. Oracle takes longer to open a position and go through the process because it is geared to larger organizations that have different requirements and …

OpenHire is a good solution but you have to pick the solution that best first your processes....no one solution can do it all. OpenHire is also a good value.
OpenHire stacks up well with its competitors. We selected OpenHire becuse it could manage our requisitions, positions and applicants in a way that other systems couldn't do. However, I don't think that we needed all the bells and whistles that OpenHire offered. We would have …
OpenHire was the best fit for that organization. Very robust user interface, integration and a well managed implementation. No one system is going to do all for each company. I've implemented 9 different systems and used 6 different systems. For me at this company it was the …
