Compare Bullhorn ATS & CRM with other popular tools in the same category.
The ability to have meaningful reports on a candidate and client level. Salesforce, JobVite, etc. usually are more specialized on the candidate or client side. Bullhorn encompasses both nicely.
I wish you could export the data into excel and were able to manipulate it more for data visualization purposes. Also- I HATE the plug in Canvas.
We have been able to run analysis on best practices with job postings. For instance, best titles, time of day posted and etc.
Integration with vendor's vendor management systems and other applications like Text us, ease of use, easy to send candidates new opportunities, good UI/UX
There isn't much to dislike about Bullhorn, it is the Cadillac of ATS's. The only thing we struggle with is to use the functionality to it's fullest extent because there is so much to choose from.
Quicker candidate reach out, better documentation, good integration with other technology like LinkedIn, TextUs, etc. easy to reach out to candidates.
Bullhorn's ATS system really ties together all record types. From Candidate to Placements, Contacts to Jobs, and everything in-between.
Their support has seemed to slow down in response time, which is unfortunate.
Tracking all of our records and activities.
- Easy to navigate - Bullhorn Accelerator Add On - Tearsheets - Ability to send mass mail and add notes from tearsheets - Ability to search and load from other sites to bullhorn - Date of last contact column sorting
- When adding a candidate with a name similar to others it will bring up all similar candidates rather than only candidates with exact matching fields. - Wish DocuSign could be connected to BullHorn with a Right to Represent feature
- When used daily it really tracks progress and you easily see the benefits. - Sorting by date of last contact for candidates so that recruiters are not doubling up on contacting
That it is a very easy application to use
you cannot hit the interview button and add another interview for the same candidate. You have to go select an action, click on add an appointment, and that might not let you link it to the job req. Not to mention to many steps in my opinion
Candidate tracking, posting a job, and able to source right out of it.
I use Bullhorn day to day at work. Not only is it easy to use but helps me stay organized.
I wish duplicate profiles automatically merged!
Bullhorn helps me keep track of my candidate pool. The benefits are that I can accurately keep track of candidates under each order.
Its easy to enter in all the required info for each client/contact. I also like that it keeps all of my contacts in one place and sync's directly to my outlook calender
the app, it is not android friendly however, it does work great for apple users
Getting more possible prospects as it allows for you to search the entire database of all from our company who use it and can see if they have made a connection with someone in which you can use as a way in with your new potential client from the same company. Its easier to keep track of everyone's sales activity as well
Our company partnered with Bullhorn about 6 years ago. I like that Bullhorn is continuously improving the product with enhancements and with the help of their partners.
I wish there were more standard reports and that Canvas training was more extensive. I also wish that there was stronger support and development for Bullhorn Back Office that we cannot use.
Our workflow has been streamlined making it faster to get resumes to our Clients.
How organized and how much you can keep track of is great!
Sometimes the site/system crashes, but other than that its great!
It is so easy to use and easy to navigate... so many great things about it
Bullhorn provides a single database to maintain all candidates from various backgrounds and industries.
I wish there was a way to filter candidates based on amount of experience.
Bullhorn provides a great way to build a database of candidates to facilitate simple sourcing.
It is so straight forward, and makes keeping track of applicants so easy. Also great for organization freaks like myself!
not too sure what I dislike - to be honest I can’t think of much except it would be nice if there were more filters when doing a candidate/job search.
It is great for keeping track of and organizing your pipeline, especially by creating and updating Tearsheets. Makes finding a specific type of candidate fast and easy.
Canvas, it allows to report on almost anything we want. Adding that on was one of the best things they did. it is also great how many custom fields there are, which allows us to customize placements and jobs a lot, accounting for any need we have.
Leads feature, not the greatest. Additionally, support has been getting a little more difficult to deal with, we are constantly being pushed to different support people, put on hold and then hung up on, or get the wrong support for back office vs. front office.
It allows for great sales/recruiter workflow, allowing for more time to actually focus on candidates and clients.
How easy it is to navigate and how it connects to our email.
How it takes awhile to load sometimes or kicks you out.
Ability to store/track our candidates, clients and jobs very easily. We are able to close deals and make money because of it.
Very easy to use, easy to customize as well based on needs.
Sometimes it feels like there are too many ways to do the same thing.
Collect profiles of candidates in a go to database.
Bullhorn is extremely user friendly. I like how you can pin multiple tabs on the side and go back to them easily.
I have honestly used multiple applicant tracking systems, but bullhorn is by far my favorite. I can’t really think of anything I would like to change.
Bullhorn provides my company with an easy way to manage thousands of candidates
Having used a number of CRM tools in my recruitment history I cant stress how great bullhorn is enough. Its simple to use, easy to navigate and hosts a number of fantastic features like mapping.
Bullhorn had a tendency to crash when paired with another 3rd party tool
Easy to use, centralized CRM used across international offices
The clean design, easy edit functions of candidate portals, and integration with contracting. You can also sync with your outlook calendar to assign appointments and tasks which is super helpful.
It takes some times for posted appointments to refresh. Most of the time this is when appointments are posted for the same day or in a certain frame of time.
Recruiting candidate management. Workflow management for recruiting. Tasks/Calendar invites for multiple people regarding a single candidate.
I love how everything is linked together, from Candidates to Placements, Contacts to Jobs. I also love that it is accessible anywhere I have internet access and compatible on my phone.
Occasionally we experience indexing issues when updating multiple records (Status changes) at one time.
We use this as our Staffing Software and works great for our many offices and teams.
I think the best part of Bullhorn CRM is the clean and easy to use interface.
Would like to see global search for all things on Bullhorn.
I use Bullhorn to track sales leads and contacts for staffing & recruiting company.
- it streamlines everything creating efficiency - reports feature allows you to compare your performance to others - mass emailing - tearsheets
I feel that the candidate search feature sometimes misses keywords in my boolean or does not spit out the best results
Personally it has improved my workflow substantially especially since i came from a shop that had no tracking system and relied solely on emailing the submissions to account managers which obviously created a logistical nightmare resulting in employee disengagement, lower moral and infighting. Bullhorn took care of this because it has everything a shop needs to keep track of who is submitting to whom, which candidates are owned, who reached out first, who submitted when, what rate, etc... it really encapsulates all the features a recruiter needs to succeed versus internal and external competition.
The accessibility and ease of navigation. Being able to do multiple things at once is awesome and very helpful on the recruiting end. It saves time, and saving time saves money
It can be interrupted a lot. Not sure because of the updates constantly happening or what. Also, the mobile application lags sometimes.
Tracking my candidates, running my reports and searching for new leads. Those benefits have helped me become more organized, make more placements and make more money ! Thank you BH !
I enjoy the ease of use for searching candidates.
I do not like the setup on how you can track a candidate. Way too many steps.
The ability to search and save candidates and resumes.
I like that they are consistently updating it and it is very user friendly. I also like that there are many functions that allow you to search quickly for candidate information.
I dislike that it is not customize-able down to the client level like other CRM systems.
We keep everything organized and keep notes on all clients.
This may sound cliche, but I love the layout of the home page, i also love the colorful icons that allow you to easily navigate the site. Between search functionality and reporting this sleek layout is a gem for the staffing industry. I needed something that would organize my candidates but also allow me to contact masses if needed.
Sometimes the amount of tabs that spread for searches can be overwhelming. And if you don’t save your most common searches as favorites, it can be time consuming to get exactly what your looking for and narrow down a search.
The overall organization of our candidate base. Including applications, payment info, personal info etc. everything is a one stop shop with bullhorn canvas. I realized how many different programs I was using separately before our company made the switch.
I love how user friendly this software is and the fact that there are minimal errors
I do not really have any dislikes so far in the 2 years I have used it
use it to keep a database of candidates
The ability to organize all my calls and task.
At times it can log me out and i lose what i was doing.
Keeping track of everything that needs to be done.
Ability to navigate Storage Meeting setup
Resume transfer Customer service Online training
Tracking Maintaining data
Bullhorn helps us find candidates we have used in the past as well as new candidates in certain areas.
I cannot think of anything I dislike at this time.
We are using it to keep track of our candidates with their information, also emailing them for jobs. We keep track of our jobs, placements and submissions with Bullhorn.
Support team, flexibility, integration with other products and software, easily customizable
The user interface of the back office product.
candidate/applicant management, on-boarding paperwork, sales crm
I love the user interface and the ease of use of the system as a whole!
I have no dislikes to list regarding Bullhorn CRM.
Tracking, strategy and planning, and business prospecting.
