Users recommend attending training sessions attentively and continuing training throughout the year. They suggest marking candidates not to be contacted and stress the importance of consistent use across all users.

Adding more color to make icons stand out is recommended, and reaching out to the company for assistance is regarded as consistently helpful. The amazing technical support provided by PCR is highly praised. Users advise taking the time to thoroughly explore the software, as its value becomes even more apparent with increased familiarity. Requesting a clearer system for setting future tasks and having a list of incomplete tasks is suggested. Additionally, users recommend considering factors such as training time, maintenance requirements, and computer skill levels when implementing PCR. Many users believe PCR stands out as the best choice available. They highly recommend PCR's additional product for easy resume uploads. Finally, users stress the importance of patience during the learning process and conclude that PCR is an effective solution for tracking clients and candidates in successful recruiting efforts. They describe it as an affordable, user-friendly, and easily administered database tracking application with great training and technical support. Although PCR is seen as a good CRM platform, especially for businesses using PCs, users acknowledge that other ATS providers might offer more up-to-date technology and user-friendly systems. However, they appreciate PCRecruiter's commitment to continuous improvement and ease of use.

  • I have personally worked on 3 start ups, all using PCR. It is a relatively easy process.
  • The training team or service staff are always available to offer timely assistance. They have a chat mode online or an 800 # where they can be reached quickly.
  • The web version has made it possible to work anyplace. The PCRecruiter App allows you to find information or a cell number quickly when you are away from your office. I have also used the PCR App on my iPad when I need to work while on vacation on more occasions than I would like to admit.
  • I started my own company some time back. When I investigated the pricing on PCR for an initial single user, it seemed very expensive for a start-up.

Good but not great product

  • Negative - it takes a long time to parses resumes into the system when you have a big chunk of resumes.
  • The presentation feature is very professional and impresses each and every client I use it for.
  • PCRecruiter organizes all applicants under one or more jobs in a very clear way.
  • Reporting is extremely difficult to understand and do, and when I do report the actual report looks jenky.

PC Recruiter is a great CRM for executive search firms

  • The most obvious ROI has been on collecting a bad or overdue debt. Attorneys are always amazed at the detailed paper trail we are able to provide through PCR.

  • As I said, it is very old looking, which I think feels like the return on investment is not as good.
  • It does not always work well, which also feels like the return on investment is not as good.

  • Having gone from a system that was in-house, we found it to be more expensive than we would like, but compared to other similar products, PCRecruiter is priced well.

Great Value - A little "clicky"

  • Because I am a solo practitioner, with low volume recruiting, I don't use it to the fullest extent. So I'd say zero impact other than to track my information in case of discrepancies with clients.
  • There is a learning curve, so it does take away time from your day to learn the system.
  • Price is good.
