Overall Satisfaction with SeekOut

We used SeekOut to research leads and get data on certain profiles for our outreach strategy. I know HR did use it for talent acquisition.

Pros

  • Talent acquisision
  • Give you data on candidates
  • Have lots of filters to make the right research

Cons

  • Sometimes, too many filters actually makes you feel overwhelmed
  • better at onboarding people
  • making sure people use the tool properly
  • hired great candidates
  • found leads that were familiar with certain tools
  • not sure how it really impacted our business to be honest other than being another tool allowing us to find leads or candidates
It was actually pretty good. I remember we wrote an email asking for a quick training on the tool because we didn't know how to make the best out of it. It would have been nice to have that training right at the start.
I think SeekOut provides way more detailed info on the leads. However, less info on the companies that those leads have worked for.

Do you think SeekOut delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SeekOut's feature set?

Yes

Did SeekOut live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of SeekOut go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy SeekOut again?

No

I believe this is a great tool for talent acquisition. In my case, it was more for lead sourcing. It did work and provided a lot of data, but sometimes I wished I had more data on the companies people were working for than the actual candidate.
