It's great yo have one application do so much, especially contact management and boolean searches.
We recently started using Zoho recruit for all of our applicant/candidate requirements and its been fantastic. The interface is excellent and really easy to use. I love that I can just upload an excel file of candidates and it can parse all of that data to automatically create the candidate details inside the system. We also use its integration with ZipRecruiter and Monster for candidate searches. I also liked that the hiring pipeline was very customizable so we could use it to fit our use case specifically.
Pros
Great integrations. Works with multiple job boards.
Very good import capability, can parse data from our uploads in excel format.
Clean interface, it didnt take us long to learn how to use it.
Very customizable. You can set it up to work the way you want it to.
Cons
I can never get the mobile app to work properly, it just crashes constantly on my Android
Sometimes one of my integration will stop working and I will have to disconnect and reconnect.

The pricing makes it suitable for teams of all sizes. So if you are in the recruitment business and want to upgrade from Google sheets or excel to track and manage candidates, this is an excellent option. The free version/trial is also very viable and I would recommend you try that before you commit. But really the pricing alone makes it work for teams of all sizes.
My business locates Natural Gas for all of the north western portion of Indiana probably about a 3 hour x 3 hours driving distance span and only have 1 HQ office and 1 in construction spaced out to support our company. With that comes the complications of having to hire people hours away from us that will be reliable and able to perform their job duties in their area of the state without meeting with other employees face to face for days to weeks. Since we are not able to travel most of our applicants due to this using this software allows us to pull applications from all the cities hours away that are expanding and sort and borrow down a select list for each location based on skills and key component's that we select AND it even streamlines the process by after they are selected then going ahead and helping both us and them connect, set up and interview, and even onto the hiring process all in one package without even needing to meet face to face or worry about making appointments and taking extra company time to do a lot of the hiring process.
Pros
Having both ATS & CRM in the same software allowing hiring professionals to make it more personal while allowing them to fully guide every step.
Modest pricing great for smaller growing businesses to begin with especially with a free version that provides more than what a lot of others provide without paying extra.
Zoho is known for top notch support and customer service especially after their explosion in 2016. They also provide 24/5 customer support for any shift at any company Monday - Friday.
The software is very small business friendly considering other alternatives however, even for enterprises that can afford their higher tiers they bring a substantial amount of add-ons for aswell.
Cons
The amount of storage available for the software in the free version can be very limiting especially for a business that's needing to grow but hasent chosen to pay for a software yet or is simply trying to see what software will scale best with their business it really.limits that ability.
Having to pay extra for specific add-ons even with some of their paid tier's such as mass emails, API calls, or a designated client portal is kind of a let down. However, with a software that streamlines from beginning to end in one package I understand their decision for that.
There are some aspects of the software such as the career site for your employees that is not available or only has limited features based on the paid level that you currently have. This is disappointing to me due to the amount of add-ons that have to be paid for even if your an enterprise with their highest paid tier, I feel they could integrate some of those add-ons in exchange for allowing lower level tiers to be able to have full access to those certain features of the sites.

With the business I am in I have to be able to search and reach potential candidates from hours away due to the scope of the contract we have covering a solid couple hundred sq. miles of the state; so being able to have a software that can search, sort, rank, and suggest candidates without having to spend ours of time or driving hours for an interview I can connect with one person and make a decision and have the software there for them and send an email or two with the steps and instructions and 5 minutes later be doing the same for another candidate hours away without even needing to leave the office or even from home and knowing that I'm able to monitor and adjust the steps or make adjustments along the way and being able to trust that it is choosing quality candidates and able to help me hire the right people to do my job to keep my contractors and homeowners safe is amazing for our business.

Cons

Whenever we can get any requirement, it will get posted on the connected job websites automatically. It's easy for us to Manage all the applicants from one system. We can shortlist and schedule the interviews for the best candidates. And Onboarding is also done using the Zoho Recruit platform. It's the best platform for us, and we love it.
We used Zoho Recruit primarily to automate all recruitment processes, data management, candidates, and employee profile management. It was really useful as we worked with employees worldwide, and we had a lot of profiles, CVs, test documents, and others that were managed with automatization. We had no cooperation with any recruiting agencies and used our own HR department, so Zoho Recruit was easy to implement and to use with high efficiency.
Pros
Find potential candidates.
Automatization of HR management.
Data collection and featuring according to our parameters.
Cons
Ukrainian language was not available.
Everything else was well-done.
Anything to add.
Likelihood to Recommend
As we were an IT digital marketing company, we had rather quick growth, and our HR department was searching for different types of employees. For us, Zoho Recruit was useful for declining irrelevant candidates without spending time with HR managers; everything was made automatically. That was very useful as there was no need to look into irrelevant candidates' CVs.
We use Zoho Recruit as our standalone ATS/CRM for both business development, client management and everything candidate related. Zoho Recruit takes care of everything for us in a nice, neat package that also happens to be cost effective.
Pros
Cost Effective
User Friendly
Robust
Cons
Interface can be a bit clunky
Wish some reporting tools were more robust
Likelihood to Recommend
Zoho Recruit isn't as well suited as say Loxo which has a little bit more robust candidate management tools and is more user friendly. Zoho Recruit however is very well suited in terms of cost effectiveness. It's very difficult to beat the price point.
Excellent Recruiting Software Zoho Recruit meets our recruiting needs in a very unique way. We were able to customize the features the way we want and it automates processes for the organization. It's very easy. It navigates well. Self-explanatory. Even for a computer dummy. It would be perfect if a Romanian translation was available.
Pros
It's very easy.
It navigates well.
Self explanatory.
Cons
Translation to Romanian is not available.

Zoho Recruit meets our recruiting needs in a very unique way. We were able to customize the features the way we want and it automates processes for the organization. Prompt assistance.
We love using Zoho Recruit because it integrates perfectly with other Zoho products and is super easy to use. Because most of our team uses other Zoho products, they also use Recruit and were able to pick up this tool relatively easily since it is very intuitive like most other Zoho products.
Pros
Intuitive to use - things are easy to find and to make sense of.
The pricing is fair.
Integrates with other Zoho products.
Cons
Support could be better for this product.
Mobile system needs to be improved.
More ways to be able to visualize the pipelines.
Likelihood to Recommend
Definitely a great product if you use other Zoho products. If not, there may be better options out there for you to use. Either way, I would still recommend this product.

This is just one of the exemplary services that the Zoho suite has to offer us in terms of business management, which in this case, encompasses the direct administration of human resources operations. We liked Zoho Recruit very much because it synthesizes all the HR tools in a single software, with very high integration capabilities.
Pros
Like other HR-based services, Zoho Recruit allows you to track the behavior of candidates during the execution of your hiring process, so that you can create constant notes of any problems that may arise and that may prevent a proper job.
The relationship between employers and candidates can be measured, which is excellent for creating reports on the development of each hiring process, and employees can then be evaluated on their ability to manage and communicate correctly with each candidate under their direct care.
Hiring sessions can be recorded using a variety of methods. It does not necessarily have to be done using an audiovisual recording tool (which is possible through different integrations) but a convenient recording system that allows you to note down important data, and where even the candidate's photographs can be saved.
We believe that some features of Zoho Recruit's support service could be improved, although this is probably a general service by the Zoho team for all their programs. The staff is not sufficiently explanatory, and therefore we have not been able to meet our expectations for troubleshooting.
We like that using Zoho Recruit is so convenient, and that it interfaces well with the other services that the entire Zoho suite has to offer: Zoho Recruit is a good alternative for human resources, which shows a reliable and easy-to-manage operability, so that all registration and follow-up processes are simple.
Cons
Zoho Recruit has difficulty integrating with other services that are not directly part of the Zoho suite, which is demonstrated by wanting to use a funnel management based CRM to include employee information, and Zoho Recruit's platform not allowing it because it doesn't meet some integrations beyond their suite.
You can't create portals where people can post their resume and quick contact information, and this can be a bit limiting for those who directly need employees to send their information to an easily accessible service where it can be conveniently reviewed and separated from the rest.
In terms of deployment, Zoho Recruit does not have such good adaptability when working from mobile, as evidenced by its application tracking function with the mobile version of the Zoho Recruit website, which does not let you send direct messages to candidates because the platform is closed unexpectedly.
Likelihood to Recommend
The scenario where Zoho Recruit could be much more exploitable would be where you have the other platforms that are in the Zoho suite, such as Zoho CRM, to be able to cover different areas of the same office work without having to buy another service. Likewise, being able to use it in conjunction with a CRM service, it is feasible that it can be used to cover the area of communication with customers, and that this serves to create evaluations of the treatment that employees offer them. When it comes to reporting incidents or behaviors, this is a very favorable possibility. With its self-service tools, employees can manage their time and attendance information on their own, since by means of an attendance reading tool, all the aforementioned information is kept secure and free from subsequent changes by employees once it has been updated.
