Overall Satisfaction with ApplicantStack

Creating a digital workflow for the new hire process has become a requirement for most companies. The ability to filter applicants and focus man hours only on the most qualified candidates is a must. We decided to pursue ApplicantStack as they offered the most attractive feature suite in their price range.

Having managed many SAAS solution purchases over the last few years, I was simply astounded at the speed and ease of the purchasing and deployment processes.

The customer service was fantastic, which is always a major concern when selecting a SAAS provider.

Custom development was priced so low we thought they'd misplaced a decimal.
  • Their support is top notch.
  • Their interface is clean and easy to understand for the people in our HR department.
  • Configuration was simple enough that IT has been able to step back and let our HR team manage changes and updates to the system.
  • Report customization needs work, it's tough to export the data I want in a format that doesn't require extra work after an export.
  • Support is fantastic, but hard to get a hold of. Often you need to leave a message on a voicemail and get a call back.
  • There is a strong learning curve to the interface, however once you become comfortable with it.. it's very powerful.
  • Applicantstack has decreased our man hours spent on the hiring process.
  • As it manages our whole on boarding process, it's eliminated lost documents and filing mistakes.
  • It's opened us up to the world of social networking based recruitment.
Applicantstack offered a high level of customization for us, at a price point their competitors couldn't touch. While it's got some room for improvement in reporting, we've been able to fill every gap with custom programming at an incredibly reasonable rate.
For small/medium companies looking to simplify and track the hiring process, Applicantstack is a well priced and feature packed alternative. Its onboarding capabilities are fantastic, in its price range it has no equal.
