Workforce and recruitment data tool that drastically reduced our time to hire at scale
This solution has improved the time to fill positions. We're able to do talent mapping and provide talent market insights based on the dashboards and data that Eightfold offers. Within a two week period, we are now able to have people ready to interview with a hiring manager, which is a huge win for us. It has become part of the sourcing strategy that's being deployed for all talent teams across different organizations in the US. We were able to execute a hire using Eightfold within the first month of deployment. This is due to the fact that we were able to source previous applicants for a specific position. Currently, 50% of our talent activities will be shifting towards Eightfold. Within a week or two, we have had people in various phone screen stages, whether with a recruiter, a sourcer or a hiring manager. We are about to launch the capabilities for scheduling interviews to reduce time to schedule from 4 to 5 days down to 48 to 72 hours. Eightfold takes the focus out of job titles. When you're sourcing using your own database, you look for job titles that are similar to the roles that you have open. However, job titles differ from company to company, and sometimes one person would have a specific job title but have different roles and responsibilities. The calibration tool allows our hiring managers to search our database and find candidates with a broader range of relevant skills.

A flexible solution with superb automation capabilities
The technical support is high-end. They're knowledgeable people, both in the US and in the Philippines. One point of improvement — they should talk more to each other. They're quite responsive, but it depends on the scope of the ticket. If it's just solving an issue from one product, you can have either a consultant from the US or from the Philippines. It gets difficult when a solution is about integration. For instance, authentication mechanisms. Authentication mechanisms come from the US and they have to be incorporated in the Asia version. Then it's difficult because support has to talk to each other.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It really expedites the whole process and helps the end-customer hone in on what they need. With the evolution to remote work that we are currently going through, there's much more of a need to tailor recruiting."
"This solution has allowed our team to focus on higher value activities and to make sure that they are optimizing time to identify talent and match it to opportunities. They can then focus on the layers where humans are necessary."
"Stability is fantastic. In the two years we've used it, I've only experienced one outage."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the insight we receive on current employees."
"From my perspective, one of the most valuable aspects of Eightfold Talent Intelligence Platform was the talent matching and employee game planning of future roles."
"The most valuable feature has been the ease at which people can set up their profiles by simply uploading their CV or Linkedin profile. We previously had very low levels of adoption."
"This solution has made our team more collaborative. The recruiting team is easily able to see what the other team members are working on, what candidates are in process and how they can share candidates amongst themselves. They are now able to prevent work duplication due to increased visibility. Eightfold is candidate centric."
"The ability to get matched to candidates is certainly valuable. In real time, you are able to adjust your description of the work and the project you need done in order to match you with the best candidates."
"This solution is extremely flexible and the automation capabilities are great."
 

Cons

"An opportunity for Eightfold to improve on is to open up their environment to allow us to own our application maintenance and development environment. We would like to be able to make some of the configuration changes and improvements ourselves."
"Eightfold could be improved if they had more round table conversations about features and their roadmap. They should actively seek out feedback from their customers."
"There is room for improvement with regards to sourcing and attribution and to be more efficient with connecting leads."
"We're doing user testing now, and on the calibration page, there's no publish button. I have to go to overview to publish it. It could be user error, but it would be nice to be able to easily figure out where buttons are and what they do."
"The tagging feature is not as in depth and easy to use as I would've hoped for. Although you can create tags for candidates, there's no way to report all those tags and see what tags are already created."
"There are some small product features that could be enhanced. Ease of use and the recruiter user experience could be improved. Moving through certain stages involves many clicks which can be time consuming."
"We have had a couple of challenges with some of the things that we're currently trying to build out in our HCM application, and other things within the portfolio, but those aren't customer-facing issues."
"Eightfold could be improved by focusing on the employee experience. It is important that Eightfold understands how it forms part of the entire experience, especially as they continue to scale. Eightfold should make sure they understand how it connects with other solutions in our technology ecosystem to drive the full user experience."
"The integration capabilities could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fairly competitive. The licensing is fairly flexible to have all employees take advantage of it in any given capacity."
"This is a fairly expensive solution compared to others on the market. However, the solution offers functionality of a number of other different solutions combined. From that perspective, it is competitively priced."
"The pricing is fair compared to the market."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being cheap and ten being expensive."
"It's not too expensive, but not too cheap either."
