Entelo's platform has been widely used by recruiters in the Talent Acquisition department to effectively source and connect with qualified candidates. By leveraging the platform's multiple filters, recruiters have been able to narrow down their search and find candidates who meet their specific requirements. The platform provides comprehensive profiles, including contact information such as email addresses, allowing recruiters to directly communicate with candidates.

One of the key use cases of Entelo is its ability to track candidate engagement through email communication. Recruiters can send emails to candidates and monitor when they open the emails and click on links, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of their messaging. This tracking mechanism ensures that recruiters have visibility into the engagement of their emails, ensuring that important messages are not overlooked.

Moreover, Entelo enables recruiters to streamline their workflow by creating templates and scheduling follow-up emails based on the candidate's role and position. This feature allows recruiters to save time and maintain consistency in their communication with candidates.

Entelo is particularly useful for sourcing technical roles, such as engineering and development positions. It serves as an alternative to LinkedIn Recruiter, providing recruiters with a reliable solution to uncover talent for specific roles that may not be found otherwise. Recruiters use Entelo as a primary search tool, with data verified against LinkedIn as a secondary source.

Overall, recruiters recommend Entelo for its effectiveness in streamlining the recruiting process and reaching sourcing goals. Its advanced filtering capabilities, direct communication features, tracking mechanisms, and suitability for technical roles make it a valuable tool for talent acquisition teams seeking top-quality candidates.

  3. Users highly recommend Entelo for tracking and emailing candidates. They appreciate its features that streamline communication and help keep track of candidate interactions.

Although these are the most common recommendations, other suggestions include leveraging Entelo for diversity recruiting, utilizing it as a web scraping tool, and adding it to the sourcing network for better results. Additionally, users emphasize the importance of taking advantage of online demos and getting references before implementing Entelo into their recruiting workflow.

We use Entelo in our Recruiting/Talent Acquisition department. Entelo's platforms helps with sourcing efforts in finding qualified candidates with the use of multiple filters. In addition, Entelo provides contact info i.e Email addresses for profiles you view. I have found really good success when contacting a candidate through their personal email address. If contact info is not available, you can request info and Entelo's algorithm will try to obtain an email address. In addition, you have the ability to send a candidate an email via the platform. Any email you sent is recorded in the candidate profile, and you can actually see when a candidate opens the email and clicks on any link in that particular email. As a recruiter, you feel like your email isn't just lost into a black hole. I really love the tracking mechanism of Entelo and wish Linkedin would incorporate something similar.
  • Entelo provides accurate candidate contact info. Many of the profiles I have sourced via the platform have had the correct email address and my emails were able to reach the prospective candidate. This really helps recruiting efforts. Most candidates in this day and age constantly check their personal email. Engineers in particular are a hard group to reach and just sending an InMail isn't always the best route. Entelo really helps in recruiting for engineers by helping to provide their personal contact details.
  • Entelo's tracking feature is a great strength. Any email you send to candidates on the platform, you can track accordingly. I get a notification when the candidate opens my email, clicks on link in the email, and when they reply. The notifications don't just come through the Entelo platform but you get an email as well so you're up to date.
  • Entelo search is another great feature. You can search for candidates by entering skill, position, company name etc. There's even a diversity filter! Really great search criteria that helps you hone in on your ideal candidates. This is really useful for hard to fill technical positions.
  • Although, Entelo does a great job in providing contact info, the room for improvement is if they can find more contact info for global candidates. For US candidates, the platform does a great job in finding email addresses. For candidates based in EMEA, sometimes the platform has a hard time obtaining email addresses.
  • Entelo's envoy feature didn't work the best for me. The feature uses AI and predictive analytics to find the best candidates for your open positions and then reaches out automatically to them with the template you create. My issue was the profiles that it reached out to weren't the best fits for my technical positions. I think this feature needs some fine tuning.
  • I think the reporting feature of Entelo could improve. Right now you can't create customizable reports and sometimes the reports you want to export can take awhile to download.
Entelo is well suited for those in recruiting who want to improve their sourcing efforts. If you are trying to recruit for engineers or highly technical positions, Entelo's platform will help you find good candidates that you can contact directly through their personal email addresses. If you are a recruiting coordinator, Entelo is an easy to use platform and would be a good starting point into the world of recruiting. If you are recruiting heavily on positions outside of the US, Entelo might not be able to help you obtain candidate info and in that case you would want to perhaps send an InMail.

  • Positive impact that Entelo has had is that it has helped increase the number of candidates we have hired into our organization.
  • It has helped tremendously with sourcing efforts. It is reasonably priced and you really get great value. It helps you find quality candidates and makes the outreach to potential candidates smoother.
  • Our time to fill has cut down for our hard to fill positions. Entelo has done a great job in helping us find and hire technical talent.
I have used LinkedIn Talent/Recruiter for years but one significant advantage that Entelo has is the fact that you can obtain candidate personal contact info and tracking of any emails you sent. I felt when I was recruiting for engineers, any Inmails I would send would not be read by the candidate, since many recruiters tend to bombard technical candidates with multiple inmails. With Entelo, you feel like your email isn't lost in a crowd since there is a tracking mechanism and the notification of when a candidate opens an email is great! I selected Entelo because of the ease of use, the functionality of tracking emails and contact info. I have sourced many candidates using the platform and I'm very happy! I will continue using Entelo in my recruiting efforts. I highly recommend to any recruiting department that relies heavily in sourcing candidates.

Entelo "Souring with ease"

I currently use Entelo to source and reach out to passive candidates. I'm using this mostly for our technical/engineering hires but I do also leverage the email reach outs for business roles as well. We're using this currently in recruiting but I do leverage this platform to create review lists for our hiring managers. This is a great way to message and track emails, which is great in regards to the fact that LinkedIn messages are less effective as they were a few years back.
  • Sourcing passive candidate
  • Emailing candidates directly and setting up drip email campaigns
  • Provide data and analytics on response rates for outbound candidate communication
  • Ease of use when it comes to navagating candidate profiles, inclusing parsing profiles directly in Applicant Tracking systems (ATS)
  • It's a little expensive
  • You have a limited number of outbound emails and profile downloads
  • Sometimes it can take a bit of time for Entelo to give you additional information requests.
Entelo is a great tool for both large and small recruiting teams. I use this with Linkedin Recruiter Light which is nice because I do most of my sourcing through the platform but can toggle between Entelo and LinkedIn. I like to leverage the Entelo Chrome extension so I can go straight to Entelo via a tab on the Linkedin UI. Entelo is less effective if you are not going to be actively souring candidates.

  • So far 17% of my hiring for 2018 has come via Entelo
  • Entelo has already paid for itself in the first half of the year.
  • I have not have any negative impacts from using Entelo
I've used and demoed several products of which I've used the below;

-Connectifier (solid tool but limited actionable activities)
-Gild (no longer in business)
-Hired (great but there are a lot of people going after the same profiles...which creates bidding wars)
-Recruitifi (i liked this but the UI was a bit difficult to navigate through)

I'd have to say that I think Entelo is the most versatile tool for sourcing and ease of use, as timing and the ability to move fast is one of the most important things when it comes to recruiting.

Telling on Entelo

I use Entelo to find the email address and contact candidates who seem viable for my open jobs. Unlike LInkedIn Recruiter, Entelo lets you contact people directly, not through a platform and they find current e-mail addresses. They enable me to create templates with attachments to send to candidates and also recommend when the best time to send the e-mail would be.
  • Finding e-mail addresses of candidates quickly.
  • Determines the best time for me to send my e-mail.
  • Making it easy to send e-mails by letting me save templates.
  • Letting me see who I've already contacted.
  • I think that Entelo needs a stronger "reach" when it comes to Indeed resumes. I find it very hard to contact Indeed candidates.
  • If I've scheduled a future e-mail to be sent, I would like Entelo to indicate that they're contacted, even if the contact is pending.
  • Letting me take back an e-mail that will be sent would be nice.
  • Letting me know if I'm sending multiple emails.
Very well suited for sourcing for candidates who get a lot of contacts through LInkedIn and who are professional, like developers and more seasoned professionals. Not as suitable for junior candidates who don't have a huge social media presence because they don't have a lot of e-mails out there to be found.

  • Great ROI because I am able to contact candidates directly.
  • I am able to contact candidates quickly - reducing agency dependence.
  • Saves me time by having templates.
I have used Scavado and it is helpful, but, Entelo is much more targeted and lets me keep track of what I'm doing and who I'm sending e-mails. I wish it would tell me if I've looked at a profile before and there are some candidates that seem to be uncontactable through Entelo, but, Entelo is my first option for contacting candidates.

Currently, Entelo is only being used by me. Until recently I was the only recruiter on the team, but our coordinator was recently promoted to recruiter. Entelo allows you to source, find contact information, email candidates, one-click integration with your ATS, and measure email campaigns all from one platform. This allows me to me much more efficient and effective since I'm able to manage the pipeline and engage with candidates while tracking the effectiveness of my messaging from one source.
  • Email Tracking. You are able to track your open rates, click-thru rates, and reply rates of your email campaigns. This allows you to a/b test different subject lines and bodies of emails to see what really works.
  • Find personal email addresses. Of all the tools that I use Entelo has the highest success rate of finding personal email addresses of candidates. I would say they hit on about 70-80% of the candidates I want to contact and that number increases for tech talent.
  • Entelo pulls from many different data sources across the web to create an Entelo profile of the candidate. You are able to source all these different sources from one platform.
  • You can filter out candidates that are already on one of your Lists (think Projects on LInkedIn Recruiter), previously contacted, previously viewed, founders, and recruiters which is great so you aren't running through the same candidates over and over again. They also have many of the other normal filters likes company, education, company size, etc.
  • They recently launched a new product, Envoy. Entelo Envoy uses artificial intelligence and deep learning to automatically find, nurture and deliver interested job candidates directly to the email inboxes of recruiters.
  • All the profile information isn't up to date and you always need to click through to their profile links (LinkedIn, GitHub, Angel List, etc.)
  • It doesn't do a great job of pulling profiles from Facebook as you are better off sourcing directly from Facebook.
  • If would be great if they could provide email reporting for the time of day to test the best time of day to email candidates so you can a/b test. Also, it would be great if you could provide response rate by List so you can see out of the 'x' number of candidates on a list, 'y' number of candidates responded. If a candidate doesn't respond to my initial outreach I send multiple follow-up emails so it would good to see how many candidates on my List respond to me. If I were to do that now it would be a very manual process and take too much time.
  • They don't have drip/automated email campaign capabilities. It would be great when I send that initial email to a candidate to have the ability to scheudle follow-up emails based. For example, if the candidate doesn't respond to my initial email within 2 days send follow up email 1, if they don't respond to that email within 2 days send follow-up 2, etc.
If you are focused on sourcing any type of talent but especially digital and tech talent then I would recommend using Entelo. If you are more high volume recruiting and you leverage career fairs, job boards, etc. then I wouldn't recommend Entelo.

  • Entelo saves me a ton of time in being able to manage pipelines, find contact information, and email candidates from one platform.
  • Hiretual, HiringSolved and CareerBuilder
Hiretual and Entelo have very similar sourcing capabilities. They pull from the same data sources and are able to find personal and professional contact information. Hiretual is superior for sourcing Facebook and Entelo has the email product(Hiretual doesn't have one) to be able to email and track emails directly from their platform.

I have never used HiringSolved and CareerBuilder but they are alternatives to Entelo.

I use Entelo to search for, contact, and track interactions with candidates. The ability to directly email candidates using templates and auto followups has been very useful. I use this as my primary search tool, and verify data against LinkedIn as a secondary source.
  • Entelo has emails on file for most technical candidates, and can quickly find new or alternative emails for candidates. Sometimes this takes a few days, but it usually only takes a matter of minutes or seconds.
  • The ability to track my searches and emails send it very helpful, but more so is the ability to see who's read and clicked through on my emails. The new tracking dashboard are even easier to use and read.
  • Customer support is extremely responsive. Usually within seconds, I can reach someone if I have a question or concern.
  • Candidate profile information (job titles, current company, etc) can be a bit dated and require a verification with LinkedIn.
  • The new Reports page is still needing some work. The stats are very clear and can't be fully interacted with, in that some stats, such as Emails Sent, do not explain whether that's a complete number or a mix of first and follow up.
  • From a candidate's profile, I cannot click on an email in the Activity field to see which address I sent their last reach out to. If I want to know which email I already used that they did not open, I have to go through several additional steps to find which email I already used so that I can try an alternative one.
If only for the ability to have automatic followup messages sent, this tool is very helpful. Add in the ability to find correct email addresses, send and track emails... this tool is very useful. My Entelo response rate is almost double my LinkedIn message response rate.

  • Response rates are much higher, saving me a lot of time.
  • Simple reporting is much easier for sourcers, removing the need for additional activity tracking.
No other platform I have used has the quality and usability of Entelo. Each has one specific feature that doesn't interact well with others. This has many helpful features in a single, trackable resource.
