Engagedly vs. Mitratech TalentReef

Engagedly has a huge range of possibilities and we chose it because of all the functionalities it offers. I'm not marking my rating a 9 or 10 because of the UI. If you're an active user (e.g. in the people department) then you get used to the UI fast enough. However, if you only use it twice per year (like all our other users) it can be difficult to find what you need. That being said, Engagedly offers a truly broad range of HR-related functionalities and we're very happy about that!

I rarely give 10/10, mainly because I have learned that that we can always learn new things and to grow. Thus, I feel that same applies to Talent Reef. While I struggled a bit in the beginning to use this application, It is probably that struggle that has made me a better user for being so persistent at using it. Now that I have more than just the basics I think for any size company the functionality of the program will work for them.

• Goal setting: Ability to set individual OKRs, department, business unit, and top-level department OKRs; ability to align goals by level, ability to see goal hierarchy, and see how individuals making progress in their OKR impacts the overall company progress.
• Performance reviews: ability to set cycle and customize each cycle, manage cycle at the same time or independently; ability to invite external reviewer (outside of the organization) is a huge benefit.
• Learning: All learning courses can be hosted in the system and assigned to individuals or groups; ability to run reports
• Analytics and reporting capability: the new interface improves this capability a lot. Data can be zoomed in and out and presented visually for employees and managers

• As an Administrator of the talentReef system, I have access to all applicants for every store across our system all in one location.
• It is a one-stop function for virtually all of our new hire paperwork.
• We have not gone entirely paperless with our employee files, but talentReef would be of great benefit to us if/when we choose to move in that direction.
• The system is relatively easy to learn for store users with all levels of digital expertise.
• The cost to the organization is extremely reasonable.

Incentivized

• Notifications - it would be better if individuals can customize what notifications to receive
• Project review function - it would help if we can set up a review form that can be used any time of the year as many times as the reviewer want to use with more structure than the current feedback function (such as rating scale etc.)
• It would be helpful if the mentor meeting function is included, not additional.

• Applicant flow is terrible. You can post jobs on Indeed for free, and receive a better applicant flow than posting through TalentReef. TalentReef was unable to provide any reasoning for this to happen
• If you want to change/edit your onboarding documents, you need to e-mail them to support. This can sometimes take more than 48 hours to accomplish, and more often than not, was not done as requested
• Customer Support is terrible. When they respond to you, they do not answer the question fully or provide any alternative solutions
• Pricing is very high. There are numerous other alternatives in the market that provide better services for half the price

The reason I gave this rating as Engagedly shows us the tasks that are pending with the due date and also if the due date is nearing it sends us reminder emails to make sure we do not miss it. It is also helpful for new associates to know more about the organization hierarchy as documents are right shown on the home screen.

Absolutely! We love engagedly because we haven't faced any kind of lagging or such issues in website. It also has a convenient app through which you can access everything. They are very polite and address to each and every query relating to software which may cause hinderence in the process.

We have had very few issues with talentReef, but when we did they were resolved quickly and in a timely manner.

the goal and review cycle alignment was superior to others. the price point was within our budget. And the employee recognition wasn't too over the top but also wasn't boring. we also looked at the clear company and a few others

We came from Info PeopleAnswers and used their ATS for years. Prior to going to talentReef, we looked at CareerBuilder's ATS and at Snagajob's ATS. At the time, neither had the integrated onboarding and exporting data components. I also like the feature of the posi-fit questions.

• the survey features have enabled us to run some good snapshot engagement data, and then react to the feedback quickly
• we are currently working on the performance management module so this is a work in progress, but I definitely see potential
• our employees currently don't use the system regularly enough to see the benefit so this is an opportunity for us
• The knowledge hub is great place for us to store company information
• The e-learning module will be a great place for us to log training

• Our initial ROI was having the ability for our applicants to apply online and move away from paper. This was a must, so we can compete for employees in our area.
• Our next ROI was improving our onboarding process. The TalentReef onboarding process protects us from having incomplete files and it also saves us labor due to the process being quicker and efficient.
