Zoho Recruit is a very powerful tool for managing the end to end hiring process for our organization. It is being used by the HR and all the key heads of departments and CXOs. Zoho Recruit is also integrated with other Zoho products that we use in the company, hence other teams make use of the tool or some of its interconnected features too.

- It led to a much faster hiring, reduced that time by almost 20%
- Improved internal transparency and communication
- Cross functional hiring improved manifold
- This still hasn't helped a lot on new candidate discovery
- LinkedIn Jobs and Workable
Zoho Recruit is surely at par with workable and LinkedIn Jobs, but [lags] behind in terms of new candidate discovery. Also, it mostly always is the second one to get new features that other tools try and that work for them. But overall, it's a fast, simple and easy to use tool.

- Job posting, linking a candidate to the job, and parsing use directly.
- Posting a job to a third party app like Naukri.com and Indeed, etc., directly from the application platform.
- Customizing candidate forms for the various types of job vacancies.
- Well-managed pipeline structure which helps to map the overall process of recruitment.
- Scheduling interviews
- Control over the candidate activity like blocking their logins for preventing misuse.
- There should be more customization options for making our own pipeline for recruitment
- Need to add feedback forms for each progress and interview. We struggled over a year to capture feedback of an interview
- Need to improve assessment capabilities, like include more features
- Unclear if we can decide pipeline for each and every job
- Unclear what we should do if we make slight changes to our selection process
- Support team needs to improve support.

- Zoho Recruit and BambooHR
We evaluated Zoho Recruit first, and we found it suitable for our needs. We have used it now for over a year. We chose this application because we wanted to reduce most of the manual work done by the HR team, but after one year we have not been able to fully operationalize the process online.

Zoho Recruit helped our company get up and running on a small budget and continues to deliver value over time as we continue to use it and the other peripheral products like Zoho Invoice and Zoho CRM all of which communicate well and share work flow and data across the platform. I have been able to scale up and down with new and former users with ease.
- Ease of implementation compared to other ATS/CRM platforms out there.
- Careers page was very easy to set up compared to other ATS/CRM platforms out there which literally require advanced programming skills to implement.
- Zoho Recruit talks to all other Zoho products like CRM, Invoice, Accounting, etc., - Easily integrates with third-party tools like Phone Bridge, etc., - Is a great value for the money as they do not charge you extra for this feature.
- My personal feeling is that the Zoho CRM could just be included as a module into Zoho Recruit as a scaled down feature compared to the full blown capabilities of the CRM alone.
- Zoho should work to expand more job board integration.
- Radius search currently lacking :-( but on the roadmap to be delivered early next year :-) Lacks integration with finance software. Some fields are locked down and can't be re-labelled but to be fair this is minimal. Skill setting needed some tweaking but happy with where we have got to with that now!
- Radius search currently lacking and this is definitely important tool to have.

- It was an ideal tool for our firm in terms of risk as it is priced right.
- We were able to make money using the free version with ease but when you have more than 1 user and 6 jobs you will need to upgrade.
Zoho does well as we did not have to purchase other assets like a Web Server, Database, and pay a developer to get it rendered and running

Absolutely the best bang for your recruiting buck
We use Zoho Recruit to recruit and place international teachers in schools around the world. The entire organization (2 recruiters and 1 customer service rep) uses it to manage our entire recruiting workflow - from posting jobs, receiving applications and resumes, forwarding candidates on to the schools, moving candidates throughout the hiring process, to following up with candidates at all steps. We also use Zoho to mass email candidates with alerts of newly posted jobs. We also use Zoho's API capabilities to have schools post jobs directly into Zoho themselves.
- Cost as a Third Party Recruiter - We have researched hundreds of ATSs suitable for a third party recruiter and we love Zoho because it does nearly everything it's bigger competitors do at a quarter of the cost.
- Automated emails - in particular we use the automatic e-mails functionality all the time, which you can associate with a particular status for candidate. So any recurring e-mail text can be set up to link to a particular phase of the recruiting process, or anything you want actually, and then any candidate status can be changed to automatically send them the e-mail.
- Job boards - Zoho has excellent options when it comes to posting on job boards. It integrates with indeed.com, Although you do have to pay indeed separately. And it posts to other free job boards automatically like glassdoor.com.
- Ease of use - Zoho is very easy to set up and maintain in terms of integration with your website. You don't even need technical skill, and it can filter all the Jobs and list them in whatever way you want.
- Customizable - one of our favorite things is how customizable Zoho is. From the application form and individual fields to the layout of job listings to particular steps in the recruiting process that you need, you can change anything to suit your needs.
- Support - whenever anyone has a question, or (rarely) a problem, Zoho email support responds usually within hours of an inquiry.
- Updates and improvements - with their new candidate login capability (due out any day now) and (later) automatic job alerts to candidates Zoho will have absolutely everything a recruiter could want.
- Mass email - the mass email is a bit cumbersome to set up - you have to set up a new template, then in a separate place set up a filter for the emails, then put it all together and send the email. It takes about 15-20 minutes when it would be nice if it was easier and quicker. When they introduce job alerts (I'm told in a few months time), the automatic job alerts to candidates will relieve some of the mass email necessity, so that will be helpful.
- Email integration - the email client attached to Zoho isn't very user friendly, it would be useful if Zoho had a plug-in to permit seamless integration with external email clients, like Outlook or MacMail.
- Invoicing - Zoho has no integration or capability to track what happens with clients once a candidate is placed. It would be nice if we could somehow track the fee for a candidate and the total fees we need to charge each client. Or, better yet, if it integrated with an external invoicing tool like Freshbooks.
- Low cost - Zoho's low cost has saved us about $500 a month for 3 recruiters, compared to some of the other ATS leaders like Bullhorn, enabling us to put money elsewhere (like marketing)
- Faster lead conversion - Since we can automate everything (for example, emailing someone, or a number of people, a request for an updated resume with the touch of a button), candidates are moved through the pipeline much faster.
- Happier employees - my employees love the customization and ability to change whatever they want to suit their particular work style or preference.
Before Zoho we used Salesforce.com. We left because their external recruiting modules were extremely expensive and their internal systems needed too much customization to be used adequately as an ATS. Also we didn't need Salesforce's working group and social media integration. We also tried ikrut, which is free and had nice integration with some external job boards, but which isn't customizable at all (even your email signature).
