Deltek Talent Management vs. Lumesse (Discontinued)

Deltek Talent Management is the best way to know exactly what type of performance your employees are having. This platform is the best option to consider for those companies that constantly recruit new employees, since it has a functionality to monitor the performance of these new candidates, in addition, it allows to know if these new employees are fulfilling their activities, Deltek monitors fulfilling assignments on a daily basis. Deltek collects data in real time about the tasks performed by employees, performs an automated process to highlight employees who are performing better in their assignments, in addition, it has an excellent compensation system, capable of providing recognitions, certifications and labor bonuses to encourage "top" employees to continue performing their activities. I definitely recommend it for any company, it adapts quickly, it is easy to use and its panel is very simple.

Lumesse is well suited for global companies, that are not too large and may get enough attention/support from other larger vendors.

Incentivized

• Does what it says it can do. There are several systems out there that claim they can do something, but they either can't or they don't address it well.
• Support Services from the providers of HRSmart (Monster).
• Partnership with Monster has provided access to their database and resources.

Incentivized

• Track candidates.
• Quick Report.
• One stop shop - meaning Lumesse holds all the information entered.
• Share information with peers in other divisions.

• Consultative support - it doesn't exist!
• Timely response to service requests (some requests have taken MONTHS to get resolved).
• More robust reporting.
• More transparency with system upgrades without blaming the client for making changes to the back-end when the upgrade has adversely altered the current functionality.

Incentivized

• Simplicity is key. The user interface could use some work around where a button should be located and how intricate does one layer need to be

Their support and assistance was timely, the system wasn't overly complicated and it simplified the sourcing process stem to stern

The only reason I would renew Lumesse is because of the difficulty of doing a data migration to a new system and the potential loss of candidates already in the system. The cost is also a factor, it is a very expensive system and there is little to no customer support.

HRSmart is a basic, antiquated ATS that does not meet current challenges organizations face. Reporting and analytics is basic.

Deltek provides adequate support for their products and I have had no complaints at all with their customer support and time to help fix the problems.

I used a program called iCFM previously, which was more for budgetary analysis. It was not as detailed as Deltek Talent Management is which seems to cater more to team management and is a better option to use for such tasks. I have not used iCFM for about 3 years now so I am unsure if that has been improved.

Each of the above products were more effective than Lumesse. I did not select Lumesse for our company, and would replace it with another system if given the opportunity. Jobvite was the most user-friendly ATS I have used. This system allows seamless integration with social media and automatically pushes postings out to free career boards like Indeed.com. I was also able to give hiring managers their own accounts with different levels of access to the information in the database so they could browse resumes and view the status on their open roles at their convenience

• So far we have reduced turnover in the year that we have been using HRSmart (although can't be sure it is a causation relationship)
• Some hiring managers are a little frustrated by the new processes, as individually they don't use the software enough to be familiar with it yet.
• The ATS has allowed us to track information we weren't gathering before (such as referral sources for new hires) so we can focus our recruitment budget on the avenues that are giving us the most success.

Incentivized

• Lumesse give us the ability to accurately track candidates through the hiring process, which then in turn allows us to hire candidates quickly and compliantly, which is our overall goal for clients.
• Accurate information that is easily accessible allows us to process candidates through the background screens quickly, which ensures candidates start and we're able to get paid for our filled positions.
