Improvement in efficiency

I've really enjoyed using SmartRecruiters, but these other ATSs that we've checked out offer better reporting features and price points. Over time, we may be transitioning off of SmartRecruiters to one of these ATSs because the price is a set price where SmartRecruiters has employee-based pricing model. Also, these other software products offer better reporting features that would eliminate some of our manual tracking process that we're currently doing.

I have not used another ATS since using SmartRecruiters except the Indeed platform which is lacking in comparison to the features on SmartRecruiters. One example of how that comes to mind is that SmartRecruiters makes it easy to search candidates and identify candidates that have applied in the past whereas Indeed does not.

We were down to SR and Lever. SR lacked a couple of features Lever had (that they've since rolled out) but SR provided a smooth, transparent and collaborative sales process that ultimately tipped the scales in their favor.

We were impressed with the modern look and feel that SmartRecruiters provided. The mobile friendly design and the SmartWidget made the job listing look a lot nicer than what we had seen of Taleo.

We've used a couple of different platforms in the past before settling on SmartRecruiters (I can't remember all of the names). SmartRecruiters seems to have a decent balance between costs, tools, and the amount of work required to learn and adopt the platform. Every platform has its pluses and minuses.

SmartRecruiters was recommended from an industry peer, vetted and selected as the only option. I would bring them to the next company I join. It was a complete solution that fit all of the needs of our company and process..

I didn't select SmartRecruiters. Lever has better search, communication, and candidate management interfaces. Sonic has great customability. Jobscore workflow is intuitive and very easy to use. Jobvite's candidate experience is top notch. Taleo's metrics and reporting are very good. I would not choose SmartRecruiters if I needed to buy an ATS. There are better systems out there. I will say that they are trying and the product is continuing to improve, but it's not there yet for larger organizations.

We also use CareerBuilder. Several of the users on our Team, myself included, have discontinued their use of CB in favor of solely using SR.
