Pros from Real Users Pros Great CS team that is always ready to help. They really listen to their customers and will step in to make sure you can use the product to what you need. Very user friendly - implementation was seamless and Crelate's customer support is amazing. I highly recommend this ATS. Crelate has been an outstanding partner for our organization. From implementation through ongoing support, their team consistently responds to our needs quickly and efficiently. The software is intuitive and easy to use, enabling our team to double our recruiting and onboarding volume without adding additional staff. This level of growth simply wouldn’t have been possible without Crelate. I've used Crelate now with 3 of my start-ups. I was on the implementation and buying team for one of these. I've been recruiting for 15 years and have used so many ATS systems, but Crelate has been by far the most user-friendly. Easy to use, explore, and customize. The reporting is clutch, and if/when I need help, the customer support team is quick to help and build the reports I'm looking for. Crelate gives a lot of information on how to do things, as well as provides free webinars and breaks down the different features. Best CRM that I have used to date. Once you realize this is a trie database-driven system, it is very powerful.		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros It is a great candidate management tool, many features available. I love the email integration. It is very valuable as a team tool as info can be shared within the team easily. Easy to contact offline Support team on use of features and how to customize fields. Quick and prompt email response to query. Relatively affordable compared to other similar apps. Ideal for small and medium size. Does not feel bloated and unnecessarily complex. We truly love their prompt customer support service and ability to customize the software as per the requirement. also, it speedup our hiring process by automating manual task like reviewing resumes, and save our time. Value for money, easy to navigate, customizable as per own workflow, simple system with variety of features. Value for money, ton of features, easy to use, easy to understand help articles, self help videos, team management. Cons Job pages are hosted on an ismart URL, instead of staying within our domain. Trial period could be longer than 1 week to help user decide if this is the right platform for them. Easy import features to allow user to test the app with their own data. The system has many features and is easy to use, but it still requires some form of training to use it to the fullest and get maximum advantages. No feasibility to create own reports, basic CRM function. More reports needed, interview feedback form can be more customizable.
