Freshteam vs. NEOGOV Onboard

Freshteam is much less expensive than other ATSs - we've recently switched to Greenhouse which is more than ten times as expensive. It seems like a good starter ATS for small startups and the automation may be useful for teams without dedicated HR support. I suspect that many companies will grow out of it the way we did.

NEOGOV Onboard is well-suited for companies who hire many candidates; especially if the Onboarding Team (HR in our case) is working remotely. NEOGOV Onboard would be less-well-suited for organizations who do not hire a lot of candidates and who are able to meet with a new hire in-person.

• Moving interviews through each stage. It helps keep you stay organized and no one falls through the cracks.
• Communicating with people through the Freshteam email is easy and again it helps guide interviews through the process. It also reminds you to follow up with people when they will not move forward to the next stage.
• The hiring manager can log in and see the progress and notes at all times. You can also load your different interview questions in so the entire hiring committee can have everything in one place.

• Good value.
• Built based on U.S. public sector organizations and needs.
• Paper reduction and improved efficiencies.

Incentivized

• Pipeline features need to be improved so that we can map out our recruitment process onto the platform.
• Can we get options for embedding a carrier's web page into our existing website, to show all of our published jobs?
• Implementing a simple UI to push our job into third party websites, or an API which helps us find most known job portals.
• We need some assessment features for various jobs, including mine, so it will also a necessary part of every recruitment application.

Incentivized

• A better connection between NEOGOV Onboard and Insight/OHC would be useful
• The ability to utilize candidate text messaging and/or send notices via Onboard (rather than OHC/Insight) could help save time
• It would be helpful to allow candidates to communicate with internal staff via the Mentors Widget in the Preboarding Portal, not just the Onboarding Portal

Not usable, not able to undo the premium features to enable any downgrade request

I have used HirePro previous to Freshteam and Hirepro has some limitations. It does not give any report for analysis which is the major drawback it has. It is also not faster. It lags sometimes while using. Few major filters are missing which makes it difficult to work. Sometimes fails to upload CV in any format, we need to wait for sometime then it uploads after some time.

NEOGOV has more limitations than bigger HCM solutions and is limited to public sector/government operations.

Incentivized

• Budget friendly for small and medium sized businesses. This is the most affordable ATS with all the important features required.
• This has really given a good ROI overall.
• Overall we are having a good positive impact using Freshteam is highly recommended for small and medium sized firms.

• Candidates are generally pleased with their Preboarding/Onboarding experience
