Before, it was a nightmare of spreadsheets, email templates, and needless to say, many many applicants fell through the cracks or left with a bad impression of our firm due to the poor communication. With Trakstar, we're able to easily track where every applicant is in the funnel, collect information on how they are doing, and manage the whole communication process. I love being able to work in both Gmail and in their software and I love how it tracks the conversations so that I can easily go back and review where things are with any given applicant. That said, the product is more geared toward someone that is hiring for one person per role. We make it work, but there is a lot of functionality that doesn't get used because of that

Pros
  • verifying workflow
  • leave notifications
  • task reminders
  • Quantitative KPI goals
Read full review
  • There's a "social footprint" kind of feature that scrubs popular social media tools for content, and aggregates this on the candidate page for a complete view of the candidate's personal brand. That was neat.
  • The email and calendar integration was well done. Most people want simple communications (the ability to respond to a candidate from the email client on your mobile device, without the hassle of logging into a platform). The ability to discreetly communicate with the candidates, while maintaining the tags and communications thread on the candidates page was gold. It reminded me a lot of central desktop by how smartly it was executed.
  • Increasing reach by blasting the job to multiple job boards (this was included in one of the subscriptions). Great timesaver.

Cons
  • It it a little slow portal
  • Creation of leaves could be an feature to be get added
  • It can offer your working details to other companies also so that a worker could get more job offers

  • Once you activate a sponsored job post, it "appears" to stay live, even if the sponsorship ends. Makes it difficult to see what's live and to track spend.
  • Doesn't link with our HRIS (Paycor)
  • Wish there was a better method to create a formal application besides the questionnaire option.

We have not renewed our subscription for Recruiterbox. Although it is a great platform with great customer service, it does not have the functionality our company needs to be able to scale and there weren't plans to develop that functionality soon.

Recruiterbox is extremely easy to use and to learn. The only function that is difficult to use, even once you have the hang of the system, is reporting.

Alternatives Considered
This has been the cheapest option compared to others and it has a lot of modules to choose as options. I am not on the decision-making committee to choose the app as a user PeopleStrong had made the people strong. As a growing organization with multiple users around the world, the need to have an app that has smooth working on the phone is a major reason to switch to PeopleStrong

Recruiterbox does not have as many features as other products I have used, however I would rate it very strong for ease of use. If you need something simple & out of the box, I had no complaints. I also experienced very few, if any, bugs while using the product.

Return on Investment
  • Increase recruitment process
  • Saves time
  • Database management

  • There has not been a high enough return on investment from Recruiterbox to know if the results shown during recruitment have been adequate.
  • Recruiterbox represents an improvement in our ROI of 3, and was previously at 2, which equates to 100% more profit for the company. It is still low, but may eventually increase.
