ADP Streamline vs IBM Kenexa comparison

"The advantage was that ADP Streamline was inherently designed to serve as a marketing engine for the company."

"They are very strong in terms of having a central regional system. A regional person can see and monitor the calendar for each different country."

"The most valuable feature was that everything was in one system."

"I like the reporting feature as it allows me to generate reports independently without relying on a payroll consultant."

"It is extremely user friendly. It is very flexible in managing recruitment, especially when you have thousands of applicants as we did. We easily had over 20,000 applicants within a year for some of our positions, so it made it very easy to manage a large application pool. It was very easy to customize by recruiter preference. When you open up someone's profile to see their experience, education, or other things, you can customize that for yourself. It was flexible in that, and each recruiter could set up their preferences. It didn't have to be set up so that everyone had to have the same landing platform, which was very helpful. As someone who trained other HR people on how to use the system, it was very easy to pick up and learn."

"IBM Kenexa is fairly stable. We don't have any downtime."

"The ease of scaling is one of BrassRing's biggest strengths, making it a trusted choice for large companies."

"The most valuable features are that we can upload documents and download them on demand."

"I think there is a need for a deeper level of comprehension."

"They could improve the service relationship manager (SRM), because they have an SRM which is not familiar with Simple."

"Having more clear guidance on design and training would be beneficial."

"The UI could be improved to be a bit more modern or trendy because it looks old-fashioned compared to other systems."

"I would not recommend IBM Kenexa to others."

"The reporting tool is helpful, but it is not the easiest to train on or is not as understandable for other HR pros. Their Workbench site, which is the administrator site that you use to update your website, is not user-friendly. When updates are required, it is not that easy to manage because Workbench is not user friendly. It required more work from the admins. They have Workbench training, which actually was very unhelpful. It took eight hours to complete, and it was not very helpful. Their customer service when it comes specifically to their Workbench site is not helpful."

"I would like to have a better and more user-friendly interface."

"It needs to update its reporting and analytics tools."

"Our company had a standardized pricing model based on the number of employees."

"The amount we pay is not low, and it is not high. It is average."

"Kenexa was fairly priced. However, in 2019, before I left my previous organization, they significantly increased their pricing. It can be affordable, but their pricing is going up. It is not just licensing; it is how many applicants you have in your system on the database side."
