iCIMS Talent Cloud Reviews

ICIMS is a very simple tool to use and we can access all the features with relevant ease with a few simple steps.

Using ICIMS when multiple tabs are opened at the same time the ICIMS responds very slow.

Alot - it is very intuitive and System Config being able to do much of what we need to do on our own and / or use that to figure out what we might need assistance with. the test site and being able to easily move new configs to production. the ability to integrate with other products so easily. User Group configuration, permissions are easy to set.

a very micro response but not having the ability to report on before and after field values. this was discussed in 13 or 14 and still not available. some of the reporting is limited and not being able to compare some statuses to current date would be nice

ICIMS is always one step ahead of current recruiting trends! Always enhancing existing products to further engage new candidates. Continuing to roll out new products to simplify the experience for recruiters and hiring managers.

Lots of clicks to get from job search to career portal.

I like that it has visuals and dashboards for various roles. The best feature is being able to login as a user to see what they see. That is fantastic!

It is a bit too much and too configurable for our size company (approx 720 ees).
I don't like how the reports are really a search.
I don't like how iCIMS support doesn't work with us regarding best practices. I think that should be a main focus so that iCIMS is always researching what the best practices are so they can pass along the info to their customers.

I love how I have everything in one system. I can post jobs, complete I-9's, and reach out to candidates all in one place.

I liked everything. Awesome product and system

One thing that I really like about icims is that it is user-friendly. We are able to track applicants easily. Also, it is very easy to change their status moving from one place to another. Also, It helps in end to end recruitment cycle starting from initial screening to first day of the candidate.

One thing that I don't like about this software is resume search and not compatible with Boolean strings. It is not user-friendly if you have to search for any candidate. You have to give the exact spelling then only you can find a person.

It enables a satisfying hiring process from start to finish for the candidates.

I wish the ICIMS design was more eye-catching. It has a rather simple appearance when compared to the other recruitment tools I currently use.

From the title of this review, it's a simple tool that a recruiter could use. It's easy to understand as well. Although, there could be some improvements to it.

When it comes to generating reports, there are plenty of things that we can improve on. I hope the developers could look into it.

Ease of use works on low internet bandwidth.

Sometimes the interface is choppy and laggy.

iCIMS is extremely customizable, down to view permissions at the field-level. I also appreciated that it offered the ability to view the system as a specific user to test said customizations. In a time where our business was growing and we did not have an established HRIS, it afforded us the ability to store data both recruiting and HR-related.

Since the product is enterprise, you are going to pay out the nose for it. After conducting several detailed demos for competitors, I found that in all cases newer products offered a fresher user experience as a fraction of the cost. That is what ultimately led me to transition to JazzHR. I was disappointed to see that in over 2 years of serving as the administrator, that there were zero improvements to the look and feel of the product on either the recruiter or candidate side. The lack of innovation partnered with pricing made it easy to part ways.

We're very pleased with the basic product and with the email support. Up time is like 99%; response time is usually solid. Features are good to great in most areas, and are regularly being advanced adn improved. seem to listen to most customer feedback and build on areas of suggestion -- like the major upgrade to knock out quetsions in the most recent built.
we use the system for unit and non, interns to executives, local to national field offices, and with one gaping hole, the product works very well.

the product has no email integration. so, candidate applies. i have a q for candidate. i send him an email out of icims. candidate answers that question? it comes to my email; it does not also come back to icims. as a result, i avhe an intern who spends 10 hours per week copying notes back into candidate profiles. notes aren't there in real time , things get missed or misplaced, etc. it's a very real weakness that has caused us to seriously consider changing platforms 3 times so far.
Other miss? the cost for certain integrations such as background checks, and certian iForms use, is ridiculously EXCESSIVE. If you plan to have them hosting a lot of forms and data collection, be sure you truly understand the costs upfront.
the itneraction with sites like monster is nice in theory, but it cannot take into account your job posting profiles, so you end up with a plain, flat job ad if you use the tools, and again they are fairly expensive.

I like the support and having a dedicated TAM. Additionally there is a lot an admin can configure. There are a lot of reference and training materials available online. Overall this software is easy to use and configure.

The forms are a bit clunky and are not easy to use. The forms are not visually appealing and it takes a while for updates. Additionally reports can be a bit touchy. Sometimes report data doesn't refresh as expected. The report data doesn't always dynamically update. If you make changes in the tool you have to remember to update the reports. You don't necessarily receive an error that the reports stopped working.

Ease of use and allows you to get to where you need within the system with minimal clicks which means a lot when you have multiple positions to fill and candidates to contact. I like being able to drill down to what I need within the system via a search as well.

The reporting piece is still not where we need it to be. With how our corporation works we need to build out specialized reports. At this time we are still unable to do so (4 years in)

I used ICIMS on a daily basis and find it very helpful to keep everything documented. This tools helps me document the resumes, what day and times interviews took place, notes and more! My team uses ICIMS to keep track of numbers and how to reach our goals, put together reports and more. It is an easy and user friendly application that has really helped in my recruitment.

Honestly no cons, I can add gidgets to my home screen for additional numbers that I want to see and it is the hub for all of my reporting needs.

On my daily job search I come across this app for so many different companies, as quite a few utilize this for job application process. It's easy to use and understand, and I can very easily see why it's so often used.

So many companies use this so it's easy to say I have a billion different logins for a billion companies. It probably goes against security but an applicant should have a way to use one login and mange their way through different companies.

iCIMS is a very robust platform with a lot of functionalities including creating all kinds of reporting

iCIMS is the clunkiest, most outdated looking ATS I've used. I've worked with 4 different systems at this point in my careed and iCIMS was by far the worst. It's not easy to use, not intuitive, WAY too many steps to do simple things, and trying to create a report was a nightmare. I would not recommend.

I don't really like much about this product. The candidate production is on par with other systems. It is quicker than other systems I have used....and that's about it.

It is not a user friendly product and I wonder how much they involved highly experienced. corporate recruiters in the functional design of the platform. There is a lot of wasted space and extra clicking that needs to be done. The system is not intuitive at all for a user. I have used Taleo quite a bit and found it to be much more compact in viewing candidates and their status. The search capabilities with ICMS are very hard to understand with their forms, filters, output templates, etc. I have to constantly go back to the instructions to figure out how to find jobs, particular hiring managers, etc. In addition I have had candidates on several occasions call me since they were having trouble uploading documents into the system. There are better systems or comparable systems available for less money. Each recruiter should't have to become a "super-user" in order to work in an ATS but that seems to be the case for ICMS.
