Compare Bullhorn ATS & CRM with other popular tools in the same category.
Bullhorn is consistently making strides - I like using a product that does not settle. I really like the simplicity of creating a Task List and creating Tear Sheets. I use the Task List as a daily calendar of activities to be completed. I can easily refer to the Tear Sheets when recruiting for specific positions. I also like that it is web based and can be accessed from my phone when I am out of the office. The dashboards are especially useful as well.
Bullhorn is a great tool. My only dislike is the way that recipients see an email when it is sent as a mass email. I believe it comes from a Bullhorn address, rather than own email.
Keeping activities for a variety of marketing and recruiting tasks. Staying organized is easy with Bullhorn. The benefit of greater organization is more efficiency. Also - managing the work flow of projects is especially beneficial. It solves the problem of team members knowing where where things are in the midst of a project. The dashboards also provide help to managing personal and team performance.
Bullhorn allows for the automation of several key recruiting processes. The tools within the ATS allow recruiters to maintain great relationships with their candidates easily and effectively.
The reporting tools are rigid. If you want any customization for your reporting it's going to cost you design and hosting fees on top of your Bullhorn licenses.
Candidate relationship management, sourcing, back-office support, timesheets are all managed through Bullhorn for our firm. The automation has allowed us to minimize the time.
You can easily incorporate Bullhorn into your every day work life for organization- whether it be to personally collect and sort candidates, or have a platform to track a job. You don't have to be very technical either, since it is easy to use. I personally like the tearsheet function for collecting candidates in one spot!
I disklike that the tabs can't be opened in individual windows. Even though you can have multiple tabs open in the single Bullhorn tab, I think visually I like it better when there can be multiple windows tabs. There was an error with parsing resumes directly from an email, but find that whenever there is an error they seems to fix it quickly and efficiently.
I think it keeps everyone organized and on-track to placing candidates when used daily.
Organization is key. All of your contacts and companies are saved in customizable "favorites." Call lists can be easily created using the handy "tearsheet" feature too.
We use it in a sales capacity along with our recruiters. It is limited for sales professionals because Bullhorn CRM is the sales counterpart, so having to use staffing and recruiting software does compare to jamming a square peg on a round hole at times.
Bullhorn solves the problem of forgetting past candidates that may fit a future job. Storing candidates files allows you to search key words when a new job needs to be filled, and a previous candidate that didn't get hired for a previous job might fit the bill, and bullhorn makes them readily accessible using a quick keyword search
Intuitive to use. Simple layout with easy to understand color coding. Candidate records are laid out well. And in general the verbiage used is very easy to understand what is being asked of you. Monster API integration into bullhorns UI is also super great!
I wish they had a better mobile site available and or a mobile app. Recruiting is an industry where you will frequently take calls in the car, out on lunch etc. to be able to document that away from your laptop would be phenomonal
Used Bullhorn at a previous recruiting agency and man did i not realize how good I had it when it came to our ATS. Bullhorn was easy to be trained on, and get up and running in no time!
I like that it has the ability to keep your contacts and leads information securely and has an unlimited amount of database capability.
It can be difficult to track sourcing correctly since a lot of time it has to be manually entered. Integrations with other programs takes a little while.
We are using this system to keep all of our leads, contracts, assignments, etc streamlined and the benefits of having it is everyone can log in at anytime throughout the company to pull information.
Bullhorn houses all possible information as it has candidate profiles, client profiles, contact (manager) profiles, leads, etc. It also allows you to enter information and share it internally by adding sending emails to individuals and/or distributions lists. Very useful for storing and sharing information internally. Also the search capabilities are very robust and allow for some deep drilled down searches
Nothing really to dislike about this CRM as I find it is a lot more functional than some of it's competitors
Housing our database of candidates and their information. able to do robust searches to bull up specific candidates is very helpful!
What I like best about Bullhorn is you are able to search for past candidates you have worked with. The program stores their contact info for easy access in the future. I also like you can also search for candidates using Boolean searches, their phone numbers and/or emails.
The only issues I have had with Bullhorn are more user error. You can search for candidates via email and if you have a space in the front of their email address it sometimes will not be able to locate the candidate.
We are able to located strong tech talent for our clients within the database. We work with many candidates on a daily basis and some can get lost. Bullhorn makes it easy to track past candidates you have worked with.
Bullhorn allows a simple access to all sent and candidate profiles makes my job effortless.
Pulling data to sync could be more efficient.
Matching top tier talent wit our clients; I've made lots of placements using bullhorn.
Great resume parsing, excellent LinkedIn RPS connectivity, great for candidate activity tracking
Searching for specific characteristics can be difficult
Much better at tracking candidates from sourcing through placement and follow-up
