We grew the business from self managed applicant tracking to selecting CATS as our solution. We investigated many solutions and settled on CATS. We are happy with that decision and it is used as our primary tool. We use it internally as well as for interfacing with our clients. It is also used for complete candidate lifecycle tracking for my recruiting firm.
- Excellent trigger email solutions. Customizable and easy to configure.
- High-End presence and able to customize for specific client's needs. Client doesn't need to fit our flow, we customize for them with CATS flexibility.
- Friendly and helpful customer service team.
- More International free job site integrations.
- Integrated candidate references.

CATS is used by all of our recruiters. We are a recruiting firm specializing in the Restaurant & Hospitality Industry. We find it very useful in the full cycle of recruiting from job postings to placement of candidates
- We find the add-ons very useful.
- Customer support is always friendly and helpful.
- E-mail integration and job postings save us a lot of time.
- When forwarding resumes if there is a position listed in subject it automatically adds them to a job order. This has caused a lot of confusion for us.
- E-mail integration is useful but doesn't always seem to work.
- Sometimes the site is slow.

Super easy to use and implement

CATS is simple and easy to use. Basically it's an "out of the box" solution that is user friendly and has a great interface. You are able to accept applications and forms for the applicants within the online interface.
The ability to post job openings on free job board sites is an incentive for anyone using the software.
The software being cloud based means that I can access this from anywhere I want.
Customer service was excellent.
- Cloud Based
- No special hardware is required
- Search feature is limited and needs improvement.
- Regular Updates

Decent system, but has its weaknesses

We are using CATS to track our candidate applicants, our recruiting efforts, as well as our hired employees.
- The system streamlines the hiring/approval process by automatically generating emails and tasks for the necessary persons involved.
- Customer Service is quite prompt and responsive.
- CATS may be inadequate for all of our needs, but they are making major improvements.
- The system's user interface is clumsy and not organized very well.
- CATS is not mobile-friendly.

Great ATS

We are a staffing agency so we use it for our central piece of business software and thus we use it for applicant tracking as well as managing all of our job orders. In addition to this we use it as our customer relationship management tool with all of our clients and client contacts.
- Very easy to use from a work flow perspective in adding candidates linking them to jobs and following them through the process.
- Great plugin for browsers, Outlook and Word to easily import resumes and candidate profiles.
- They are regularly updating the systems so you get ongoing improvements.
- The CRM capability for business development is just OK.

Affordable, Intuitive, Flawed.
Score 5 out of 10
Vetted Review

CATS is our company's applicant tracking system. All applicants, regardless of which division they are applying for, go through the CATS interface. It starts with the careers portal on our website, takes the applicants through the application, collects their information needed for compliance, and allows the recruiters to move the applicant through the hiring process.
- It's intuitive. You don't need an instruction manual or extensive training from an implementation team. There are weekly webinars and YouTube videos in case you need additional guidance on how to do something.
- It has many of the bells and whistles of other, more expensive ATS's.
- I've had several disappointing interactions with the product support team. Don't expect much from customer service.
- It's unlikely you will pass an AAP/EEO audit with their limited reporting capability.

CATS... It works!
CATS is used across my organization and is used to keep track of all candidates that we speak with.
- CATS is mobile enabled and lets me get candidate information when I'm on the go.
- CATS also has a very strong support department. Anytime that we've had a problem a real live person has been able to help us resolve the problem and has done so quickly.
- CATS is very intuitive and allows me to manage my candidates quickly.
- The safeguard to protect your database from duplicates is absolute trash. It catches duplicates less than half of the time.
- CATS could definitely do a better job at being able to be sorted by multiple features rather than just one column at a time

CATS is for YOU
CATS Applicant Tracking System is being used at our company to keep our potential candidates organized to easily find and review each individual when necessary. It keeps our cross referencing between BU units very simple, eliminating our servers from an overload of files.
- Allows you to keep lists of companies or individuals.
- Stores thousands of databases, lists, candidates and job orders.
- Quick and thorough responses from Support and eager to help.
- I would like for old lists to be accessible, I'm unable to see all lists.
- When uploading names, not all duplicates are found, therefore, CATS can improve on eliminating duplication.

Great ATS Solution for Small Company with Many Jobs!
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review

CATS is being used by our entire recruiting staff (both office workers and remote employees) and it allows us to keep our candidates, clients, and job orders organized. It allows us to collaborate no matter where we are and to always know where our candidates are in the hiring process/pipeline.
- Clean, modern, easy to use, quick to learn
- Seamlessly integrates with social media and job posting services to share your jobs with the public
- Being able to customize fields, workflows, and the job portal is the absolute best part of CATS!
- Missing functionality includes ability to organize and label documents within a candidate's profile - we host technical assessments, resumes, addt'l documents - yet they are almost always marked by CATS as resumes and thus show up in the resume preview window
- The reporting #s and activity reports have some weird quirks that need to be worked out so we can get accurate #s/reports
