"Great Experience of the Trial"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

Zoho Recruit is quite easy to use. Intuitive configuration options.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

I am not far enough into the trial to have found anything that I dislike. Couldn't find option to configure SAML based SSO. I'd like to see better security controls for data security at rest. Similar to Zoho CRM, it would be beneficial if there is Box.com connector with two-way sync, to store and share documents in a secure manner. It appears Zoho Recruit allows to configure only 1 recruitment pipeline. It may be adequate, but if there is a need for multiple pipelines, this would be limiting.

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

We are looking for consistent recording and tracking of recruitment activities by our staffs.

"It was ok. Could be better for free trial to get a well experience of the software."
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

I like the fast results of the inquiries. Put in the job title, and city and BOOM you have a huge list. I have tried two others and its a timing results.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

That for the free trial there is less information about the applicant. For a free trial you should be able to see everything so that you have a feel of what you are getting.

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

I am solving simpler way of finding applicants. I have finalized the right applicant ,sometimes more than Im looking for but more than i need.

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

As an off the shelf product, it does allow for extensive customisation, which is relatively straight forward.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

Compared to other products I've used in the past it does lack functionality and doesn't flow particularly well through the recruitment process. The support isn't great either.

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

I have gone through the Zoho Recruit application as part of my evaluation of different HR, Payroll cum Recruitment applications. I found Zoho recruit very helpful.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

Since I have only got a trial version, I was not able to get a full view of the application. Hence I am not in a position to correctly provide feedback on any negative points in the application

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

We were looking for a robust recruitment application which takes care activities such as creating and publishing job opportunities, biodata bank etc:-. To that extend it is found useful. I have checked only the test application. Plan to evaluate the enterprise version at a later stage

"Zoho Fits in"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

What do you like best? We spent good amount time searching for a suitable CRM for our startup recruitment agency. We looked at a number of the big players but were put off by the cost. Our experience with Zoho is one which has proved to excellent value for money. T

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

What do you dislike? It appears that you can send out multiple candidate cvs to multiple clients and have them associate with the candidate. We may have just not managed to work it out properly yet!

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

We are looking to have a good cycle from recruiters to recruites

"Customer support needs work"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

I don't know yet. The verification process has been a nightmare. We are a recruiter for another company. So I've gone through chat and email several times to get clearer instructions.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

No clear, personalized customer service. My question doesn't require much, just a personal, customized answer. It seems a little ridiculous and makes me want to cut my loses and switch to another platform.

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

None, currently. We use Zoho CRM and I would say it's not the most user friendly platform but after a year, we pretty much have it down. But with recruiting I don't have a year to make it work.

"Ease of Functionality"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

The enterprise software is easy to navigate

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

The software is not efficient for recruiting firms, jobs don't post to any job board and you must purchase Indeed, Monster, or Careerbuilder to have access to post jobs or access candidate information.

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

Haven't solved any recruiting problems with this software, no benefits have been realized.

"PRODUCT NEEDS WORK"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

It has a good workflow engine. Modules are nicely designed to meet ATS needs

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

Integrations. The integrations are horrendous. The tool does not integrate with my wordpress website. We used Zoho Workerly as well. It does not integrate with its own product as well.

"Very limited features for an ATS"
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

Like that I can post to multiple job boards directly through zozo

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

Of all the job boards included, we only receive candidates from ziprecruiter - was told that I'd have to call each of the other job boards directly to figure out why we're not getting applicants. This was supposed to be a solution to dealing with a bunch of job boards separately. Doesn't include some features that I feel are super basic for ANY ATS, particularly one that's supposedly designed for large organizations - - can't separate job applications by location, so they all come into one inbox - aside from "resume inbox," can't specify a source for any job boards outside of the ones zoho posts to, so I still have to run reports manually - applications that come in through the resume inbox have no location attached. Can't even tell which email template to use, location/owner to assign them to - Only one interview calendar - no ability to create a calendar for each location

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

Can't really say that the recruit feature in Zoho has solved any problems - it's very difficult to use/customize, and I'm still having to do a lot of things manually that a software like this should be able to automate

"Actual functionality of the Software is not user friendly for Recruiter "
What do you like best about Zoho Recruit?

the software is not user friendly but the best features is that you can change the interface and adjust it according to your requirements. but when it comes to use the Zoho Recruit in actual situation or live scenario it doesn't work well. for example attaching candidate's documents and sending it to a client is more of a kind of hassle. suppose you received passport and other certificates after selection of a candidate and you have attached it to a candidate's profile. there is no option to select and attach the requested documents by the client. there are other features which don't work properly such as Resume Inbox, Resume Parser, Formatted Resumes.

What do you dislike about Zoho Recruit?

it is not user Friendly and I have pointed out to the Support Staff of Zoho Recruit, it seems they are more interested and feel proud training on making changes in the software and moulding it to your requirements but they don't have enough knowledge in training on actual live situation, such as functionality of the recruitment process, which includes clients, recruiter and candidates coordination and synchronization.

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

Recruitment agency candidate and application tracking. the only benefit is that you can change the software according to your requirements such as changing the field names adding or removing the fields, such as if there is a field of Province, you can change it to State or County.
