iCIMS Recruit

Overall Satisfaction with iCIMS Talent Acquisition Software Suite

We use iCIMS for recruitment, hiring, and offer letter generation for our admin professionals and staff around the world. It is the ATS for this population and is the system of record for recruitment purposes. It provides a more consistent, legal, and compliant model than our previous system.
  • Secure.
  • Integrates with many systems.
  • Modular and flexible.
  • Can adapt to your process.
  • Excellent support model.
  • Very good analytics and can be audited.
  • User administrators have a lot of control of their platform.
  • Reporting can always be easier for end-users (but it's on the road map).
  • Offer (their module for building and managing offer letters and the offer process) is a separate module and additional cost.
  • Currently, applicants can only upload 1 resume for all their jobs. If an applicant replaces their current resume, it applies to all positions (retroactive and going forward) which can confuse applicants and recruiters alike.
  • Can report on key metrics.
  • Time to apply to roles dropped by two-thirds.
  • Recruiters can better track where people are in the process.
  • The look and feel of site for applicants was an overnight success.
Cost was a big driver. iCIMS offered much of the same at half the price and better support. It was also easier to implement. Their implementation team is top notch.
I get to work directly with their developers and engineers. We also have an account manager. Finally, their case management system keeps you in the loop.
UI design can always be improved regardless of the vendor. The applicant side is overall easy to use. The platform side (esepcially reporting) may be intimidating to some, but if you configure your users' dashboards with their needs in mind, you can mitigate that to a certain degree.
