Overall experience with Zoho Recruit is excellent. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about building a team and tracking all the candidates passing through their system

Pros

Zoho Recruit is an excellent Application Tracking System that has streamlined my work and made my recruiting process very efficient. Every interaction with the candidate can be traced along with the history of conversation. This help tremendously when candidates reapply. The Hiring Pipeline allows me to customize the recruiting process and keep track of how candidates are moving through the recruiting process. The workflow rules allow me to create email triggers and save time on common rule based notifications to candidates. And the auto created job postings page makes it easy for me to post new job positions and capture candidate resume and data directly into my system without writing a line of code.

Cons

Zoho's tiers are very rigid, and I would hope they would make their product more modular and allow customers to buy modules piecemeal. For a small startup, the professional and enterprise grade turn out to be very expensive, and we could easily trade some features we don't use for features we would like to use.

Unlike other platforms that charge premium prices for similar capabilities, Zoho Recruit offers a feature-rich solution at a significantly lower cost. The interactive dashboards and the ability to tailor the platform to our specific needs have been instrumental in optimizing our hiring processes, making it a top-tier choice that delivers both high performance and excellent value for money.

Pros

By leveraging Zoho Recruit, I can track every candidate in our pipeline. It allows me to monitor their progress, the tasks they’re engaged in, and other crucial information that guides the end-to-end recruitment process effectively.

Cons

There’s not much to criticize. Some features, like the portals, may take some time to master, but this is a common issue across most platforms, and Zoho is far from the worst in this regard.

From my experience, Zoho Recruit has still allowed me to save time in organizing job postings and candidates. It's a good software overall.

Pros

Zoho Recruit allows me to manage the entirety of my recruitment process. It helps me create job postings, schedule interviews, sort candidates, and more. The automation feature for certain tasks is also a major plus.

Cons

I didn't like the analysis and reporting provided by Zoho Recruit for evaluating the recruitment process, which I found less effective.

Pros

It's ease of use. Off it's easy to navigate your way round and I like how customizable the options are. The UI is easy on the eye and allows quick options for viewing cvs notes and uploading documents into the file

Cons

Although the user interface is nice and easy it does feel a little outdated compared to other systems i've used. In terms of functionality but just perhaps be a little more pretty on the eye

I'm new to this but so far everything seems intuitive. I excited by the low price so I can spend money on the job boards but coordinate everything from Zoho Recruit.

Pros

I like the Access to the free job boards. I also like the career page option. I can use that to source candidates more organically.

Cons

There are too many limitations on the free trial which make it hard to fully evaluate.

We transitioned from Bullhorn to Zoho, and it's a world of difference. Bullhorn was very slow and not easy to set up and modify, versus Zoho, which is very fast, has tons of job board extensions, and is easy on the eyes.

Pros

I like the platform design. It's very easy to manage, and you can set it up on your own.

Cons

Sales process is a bit confusing - they will quote you one price then quote you another then say its month to month but encourage an annual commitment.

I have been using multiple platforms till I find Zoho. The best thing about this, I never searched for an alternative! Previously I was using ODOO but was in constant search for alternative and Zoho provided that. This is the 3 service I am engaged with including, Payroll and Vault.

Effective Recruitment Tool

Reviewed on 2024/08/22

Pros

Zoho Recruit's user-friendly interface and seamless integration with other Zoho applications make it an excellent tool for managing the entire recruitment process efficiently. The customizable workflows and automated features save a significant amount of time, allowing us to focus more on candidate engagement and less on administrative tasks. Additionally, the reporting and analytics tools provide valuable insights that help in making informed hiring decisions.

Cons

While Zoho Recruit is a powerful tool, the initial setup and customization process can be a bit complex and time-consuming, especially for those who are not familiar with the Zoho ecosystem. Additionally, some of the advanced features may require a steep learning curve, and occasional updates can temporarily disrupt workflows
