Overall Satisfaction with Entelo
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.
- 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.
