    Hiring Thing is great for new organizations just starting out with smaller talent teams. It is very simple to use, add users, walkthrough processes, communicate with candidates, and walk through the hiring process. It does not work as well when an organization grows, needs lots of open requisitions, and has a decentralized hiring process.

    Cons
    Crelate Inc.
    • Interface isn't great - there's a lot of clicking around required that I wish was streamlined
    • This isn't a self-explanatory platform - you have to dig around a while before you figure out how to use some features, like the filtering of contacts, for example. There's a place that you'd think you filter, but that actually changes the contacts list instead.
    • It often crashes and you have to sign out and sign back in for it to work again.

    It works, but not sure that it's the best/we might try out alternatives first.

    Support Rating
    Crelate Inc.
    Usually the Crelate support is very responsive and quick to fix any problems that arise. I've personally seen emails of the threads where Crelate support was quick to resolve problems and act courteously while doing so. While I have never called their line, it seems that their phone support is also well experienced.
