I have been on the free plan for sometime and like the support provided and that different solutions integrate with each other. I also find the recruitment solution easy to work with, therefore I'm ready to upgrade in order to enjoy additional systtem benefits. > > **Cons**: It can be difficult to know which Zoho partner to work with, or whether to choose working with a partner at all, or directly with Zoho. > > Good. The support has been great, reasonably priced and easy to use. The systen provides the required services to drive recruitment and integrates with other systems too. ----- ### "Zoho Recruit Experience" — 4.0/5 > **Ahmed** | *07 September 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Zoho recruitment application covers all the tasks required in the recruitment cycle with a good division of tasks and the certification cycle, as well as the way to organize, sort and evaluate resumes with artificial intelligence and many modules and the possibility of customizing them > > **Cons**: The app and the rest of Zoho's apps lack updated user and self-learning guides that cater to the Arabic user, as all available content is in English > > It is good to have synchronization with the rest of Zoho's applications, although the AI evaluation and sorting mechanisms need to be developed to provide an experience based on the functional context and not just the keywords ----- ### "Oversold and underdelivered" — 2.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 September 2025* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Zoho Recruit is a stable CRM. They have some integrations that can be helpful but beware, some of the features require additional payment. > > **Cons**: Too much of a communication barrier with your onboarding support team. They oversell and underdeliver performance and features. They also want you to share your admin credentials during setup instead of having any type of "partner" or their own credentials. > > We were excited to begin with Zoho recruit but once onboarding started we quickly realized it was not the right tool for us. We were oversold on on things that the system could do, for example, we were told there was a full integration with RingCentral for phone and SMS. What they don't tell you that is that you have to pay for an additional 3rd party service to make the outbound SMS work. We were assigned a project manager, and then 1 week in, that person was removed and put on a different project. ----- ### "Zoho is great" — 5.0/5 > **Roe** | *25 June 2026* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Zoho Recruit is very easy to use and navigate, making daily tasks efficient. It offers excellent value for money compared to other recruitment systems, with strong core functionality, good customization options, and reliable performance for managing candidates and workflows. > > **Cons**: One downside is that the AI functionality currently feels limited compared to other platforms. Some automation features could be more advanced, and there is room for improvement in intelligent candidate matching and workflow automation capabilities. > > Overall, Zoho Recruit has been an excellent system to work with. It is user-friendly, cost-effective, and provides all the essential tools needed to manage the recruitment process effectively. With some improvements to AI features and automation, it could become even more powerful. ----- ### "Zoho Recruit experience" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *03 September 2026* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really liked the fact that Zoho Recruit offers API services on the free/budget plans, the interface is friendly and intuitive even for someone who had no experience before. > > **Cons**: The inbuilt AI-assistant could be more useful. It often makes mistakes when parsing complex CVs and that's definitely something to consider. > > Liked it, will definitely continue to use it. Perfectly suits medium scale business yet it is much cheaper than its competitors. ----- Page: 1 / 53\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/9912/zoho-recruit?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/9912/zoho-recruit) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
