RS
Human Resources Recruiter at a wholesaler/distributor with 201-500 employees
User friendly with good features and offers very flexible packages for small to medium-sized companies
The job listings are the most valuable aspect of the solution. We don't do much reporting out of it, however, we do do it mainly for the source data to understand where our applicants are coming from. Applicants list the source when they apply for the job. That's really the only thing that we use for reporting - the source data. We pull that on a quarterly basis. Otherwise, it's really just the job postings and then viewing the application, screening them out, moving them throughout the hiring process with the different statuses, and then the pre-employment screening, which is done through ProScreening. The product has a very good flow. The solution is really user-friendly and is just super easy. The application takes five minutes or less than 10 minutes. The process is super smooth. The product has a good set of features. Everything you expect to need, they seem to have.

Pros

"The product has a good set of features. Everything you expect to need, they seem to have."
"The solution is really user-friendly and is just super easy, with a super smooth process and an application that takes five minutes or less than 10 minutes."
"To be honest, I enjoyed all of the features provided by ApplicantPro. But most of all, I really enjoyed using it to post applications and job descriptions and to mark the statuses of applicants. Those are the things I found most useful."
"With ApplicantPro, we got a lot of applications from interesting candidates and I enjoyed reading through all of them, whether they were qualified for that particular position or not."
"The UI and UX are fantastic."
"The mobile responsiveness is strong."
"The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities."
"Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system."
"With PeopleStrong, you will be able to do all of those things while working at home."
"It has the capability of reporting. We, as a business team, found it good. In fact, we migrated to PeopleStrong essentially because of its reporting feature."
"It is priced low."

Cons

"It could be easier to remove applicants in bulk."
"There were times when we wanted to post confidential positions. For that, I had to contact ApplicantPro to ask about how to do that."
"In terms of extra features, I would suggest a general human resources information system where I could actually enter information about those we hired, including the benefits information, and have the benefits information linked to the benefit vendor websites, like for medical, dental, and vision."
"They could include a sort of collaborative platform where employees are able to work together with a chat mechanism like WhatsApp and video chat."
"Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect."
"PeopleStrong could make it AI-friendly."
"The global scalability and support could improve."
"It would be helpful if you could work offline because sometimes, we have problems with internet connectivity."
"The solution's workflow can improve by adding more customization at the organizational level."
"They had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We had to pay an annual fee to use ApplicantPro, and the license fee included everything we needed except for the ability to post confidential positions, which was something we had to pay extra for."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It's very reasonably priced. It is paid per employee."
