hireEZ vs. Affinda Resume Parser

I speak highly of hireEZ internally. I believe their are use cases for both hireEZ and LinkedIn and whatever other sites are used in recruiting. hireEZ is well suited when you want to reach out to candidates with contact information after maybe seeing they have not responded to most LinkedIn messages. We have also had a bit of success in going back to old reqs that we can search through hireEZ in a seamless way and reach out to those candidates.

Affinda is especially appropriate for larger organisations, like ours with internal CRMs. For those who use a fully fledged cloud-based ATS, Affinda will not meet their needs, as Affinda is just one step in the chain.

• Talent sourcing aggregate (known by Hiretual as AI Sourcing).
• Custom insights based on search criteria.
• Contact information & social link retrieval.
• Applicant Tracking System Integration -- At OnPoint we use Lever as our ATS. Hiretual allows us to export candidate data directly into our ATS and associate said candidates to a specific requisition, & in a specific stage.

• Quality
• Service
• Price

• I have come across many duplicate profiles that could cause me to contact the same person twice in a short period.
• Doesn’t have an “undo” button for if I accidentally mark a candidate as “not a good fit”
• Their “variables” used in creating email templates don’t function optimally. If you use “candidate last name”, and the person has a title, it will use the title instead of name. For example… I sent an email to a doctor and it sent as “Dr. MD”. Not ideal.

• Resume Parser by Affinda is a few seconds slower than the other parsers I used (Part of this may just be due to propagation delay, considering my data center is halfway around the world). Regardless, for my needs, Affinda's accuracy outweighed the extra latency.

The benefits of a larger universe of candidates and automating recognition of talent we cannot hire, hireEZ has been a big time saver just as a sourcing tool

I am a user of three years and have seen the features grow over time. I love how responsive the team is when there is an issue and their willingness to work towards a feature request is unmatched. I also find the accuracy of the data is comparable if not better than most competitors

The support team is proactive with information, sharing changes or new features, conducting training, etc. It is not a pull scenario, as with other vendors, where I have to ask for what is going on. Instead, the hireEZ team is reaching out to us to follow up, provide information, etc. I love their proactiveness and desire for us to use the tool to its full potential!

Quick responsiveness to inquiries. Willingness to customize the product to the customer's needs.

Entelo is probably the closest competitor that stacks up against Hiretual head to head in my opinion, but the differentiator for us has been the relationship and the flexibility that the vendor provides us on top of the fact that the product itself continues to perform incredibly well as it continues to evolve along with my organization's needs. To have a seat at the table to offer up opinions or advice on how to improve the product over time is invaluable. Additionally, the AI-powered version of Hiretual is much more powerful than Entelo's product.

I was assigned this project by our operations manager. We evaluated four competing saas solutions, and after the evaluation we found that [Resume Parser by Affinda] scored best on quality, service and price, and was third best on speed. Wasn’t a hard choice.

• hireEZ has helped me connect with qualified candidates much quicker, which means less time spent digging and more time reaching out.
• The platform keeps everything in one place, which really helps when I’m managing multiple roles and conversations.
• With the built-in outreach tools, it's easier to stay on top of follow-ups and maintain better communication with candidates.

• Time savings and easily gathers data in a useful manner to make decision making better.
