    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.

    • Every system has some room for improvement. But no major issues were found, so it’s completely fine.
    • he system comes with 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.
    • Every staffing agency business has different needs and requirements. iSmartRecruit helps us to do that. Very quick to respond to requests. Sometimes, it may take more time if the requirement is complex.

    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.

    • It's eliminated the need to hire additional administrative staff. This is the single biggest savings.
    • It has saved a lot of time that allows us to spend more of our time and resources responding to clients and candidates. Our clients and candidates feel we are more service-oriented and different than our competition. We've received referrals this way. Difficult to measure - but definitely huge items.
