So far, it has been nothing but easy.

Pros
It is easy to navigate and super customer friendly. The customer support agent who works with our company reached out to me immediately and was very helpful.
Cons
I wish that there was a transcription/subtitle feature. Sometimes it is difficult to hear the applicants' answers. I also wish that there was a way to slow down the audio.
Response from Kira Talent
Hi Tarra! Thanks so much for your review! I am glad to hear that you find the platform easy to navigate and the staff friendly!! Thank you for your feedback about subtitles and slowing down audio playback - I will absolutely bring these ideas back to my team! Best, Cathlin

Fantastic support

Pros
The video essay platform is very user friendly and walks participants through computer set-up as well as practice questions. Their technical support takes a lot of pressure off my office, as they handle all troubleshooting and always respond instantaneously if I have questions regarding anything!
Cons
There are not many cons, Kira is constantly upgrading their technology to deal with the high traffic times and always gives attention to any issues!

Practical and useful admission tool, needs to be able to integrate with CRM systems
Reviewed on 2018/06/12
Pros
Ability to randomize questions, record videos to personalize message. Also enjoy the ability to rate applicants. After the video platform switch, enjoyed how quickly videos loaded.
Cons
No integration with CRM systems like Salesforce TargetX. Tracking notifications difficult due to lack of integration tools.
Response from Kira Talent
Hey Jana! Thank you very much for the review! :) We're working hard to add to our list of CRMs that Kira can integrate with. We'll be in touch as soon as a Target X integration is available! -Christian
