"It has helped in Organising your Recruitment Efforts"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

I like the fact that I can upload resumes and have it pull out application information from the resume and provides a way to coordinate recruitment between my team mates, from then on. It's also cool that I am able to modify the email templates and add fields that I find useful.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

The only thing I dislike is what I call not including sensible defaults in the Interview Scheduling email. I had added comments particularly useful to applicants, but they didn't get it as it was not part of the email that went out. But I was able to rectify this be editing the email template.

It is a good solution for recruitment help that has a very complete system of tracking each candidate and analyze each curriculum to choose the best and start the processes of possible recruitment with each one if you pass all the required tests Each user can create their profile on the web page that was created where all the vacancy offers that are needed are published and thus be able to apply in a very simple way to all the offers that you see in which it can be suitable according to the profile that each one has. candidate The price of the plans is very economical for all the functions so successful that provides

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

They do not have 24/7 support even though they say yes, I have noticed that I leave the support message and they answer it until the other day, this is where I realized that they do not have a coverage of hours with support and in the chat it's almost the same they do not respond immediately or maybe it's that they have to attend several then it would be good to have more advisers

"Salesforce for growing companies"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

Zoho is a great tool for a growing, but still small company. Unlike other "start-up" CRMs, Zoho has advanced functionality that compares to Salesforce but at a more affordable cost. Both Zoho CRM and Recruit, allow for some customization without the need for heavy development.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

The customization isn't perfect, but at the price point of Zoho, it's one of the better tools on the market. Reporting was good, but it could be more inclusive and easier to use.

What problems is Zoho Recruit solving and how is that benefiting you?

It was a good tool for staying up to date with candidates and giving management a look into the pipeline for open roles.

"Recruitment tool that works with Zoho CRM"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

We use Zoho CRM. I am looking for a tool to track the applications we receive for various jobs. Zoho Recruit seems an ideal tool for my needs. Like with all Zoho products it is simple to use and does the job without too much effort.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

There are those small areas where you wonder why can't the tool (or the design) be more intuitive.

What problems is Zoho Recruit solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are providing hiring and recruitment services for various schools. The standard CRM modules are not very effective to track the various job openings and keep track of the applicants for each job. Zoho Recruit seems purpose-built for the needs we face as a recruitment service provider.

"Effective recruitment"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

To be able to have an order of all the candidates who show up for work in the company was complicated because the information was lost or they did not have the necessary data but since it was installed zoho recruit the whole process is much easier and ordered something that makes give me more and I do not miss the information of each curriculum, I am very satisfied with this platform because it gives me the confidence that I select the best curriculum for the job that is needed in addition to being very easy to use and with this candidates do not have to wait so long to know if they were chosen because I surrender more in the processes and so I give a faster response

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

Maybe the only thing that is missing from this platform to be more complete is to have a better support service but I do not communicate much with them because the platform does not present problems for me from time to time I do it to answer questions and take a little time in answer

What problems is Zoho Recruit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solved the problem of having so many résumés on paper now I have everything digital saving me time to look for sheets because in the computer I can find the candidate easier and have a more organized order of the stages of the processes

The ease of use and access. You don't need to spend days watching a how to use video. It's simple and almost self explanatory when setting up the site and accounts.
