Crelate vs. PageUp

Crelate Talent is well suited for applicant management. It also works functionally well with other job boards and websites such as LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, etc. Crelate Talent seems to be mainly used for a mid- to large-scale business rather than a small business, for an applicant tracking system, as the management features work best with an existing candidate pool.

It's well suited for HR purposes and I think it's also very strong for recruitment reasons. However, it can be very confusing if you're not trained in it. I don't think it's appropriate for anything other than HR. For example, it would not be conducive for accounting, but it is conducive when a department needs to quickly find an employee.

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

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.

My two favorite systems are Crelate and Recruitee.

• From my experience, Crelate is the best full-service database because it allows you to track Business Development and candidate activity
• Recruitee is very effective as an applicant tracking system

We understood that PageUp was more complete and could offer us more possibilities than other tools. It was more flexible considering the workflow process and had a complete suite of reports, analytics, and dashboard. The other side of it was the deployment time, [which] probably took longer than other similar tools, so it is very important to consider your needs and deadlines.

• Can more easily organize our candidates and we have a lot of info at our fingertips - this translates to quicker processes which is positive
• We keep all our notes on Crelate - very useful for the whole team to see
• We have multiple team members scheduling so it really helps to see all the emails that have gone out, to ensure there's no overlap

• Positive: centralized and more efficient management process
• Positive: cost saving when compared to other traditional recruitment processes
• Negative: learning curve and time to deploy, especially if users are not very experienced with recruitment processes
