I love that ApplicantPro dramatically increases the number of applicants I receive for the exact same job postings compared to other systems I've used. Its ease of use is remarkable, making it incredibly simple and fast to operate, which is crucial since it’s not the primary ATS we utilize, yet it seamlessly integrates into our process. I appreciate how easy it makes sharing information with our hiring managers, enhancing workflow efficiency. ApplicantPro stands out with its superior ability to attract qualified candidates, which is a significant advantage over other ATS tools I've experienced. Furthermore, the initial setup was very easy, and their customer service is excellent, ensuring a smooth onboarding experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only complaint about ApplicantPro is a minor issue: the user interface isn't very attractive. I prioritize functionality over aesthetics, but there are definitely more visually appealing applicant tracking systems out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate that ApplicantPro is an affordable option in a competitive market, providing cost-effective solutions for hiring and recruiting tasks. I enjoy the flexibility of tailoring job questions to fit the specific position being posted, which allows for a more customized and efficient recruiting process. Using ApplicantPro, I can easily manage job postings and application captures, while the HireForms portion aids in onboarding and the ProScreening helps with background checks, making it a comprehensive tool for our main recruiting needs.

I don't like how tags don't carry over from one application to the next and I find the searching capabilities to not work very well when trying to dig through resumes for specific skills or traits. If a candidate has applied with us multiple times and they populate in a keyword search, they will be listed multiple times in the list—once for every application. I'd rather just see their name once and move through their numerous applications myself. I hate having to check notes within every application pipeline. I'd rather have one notes pipeline and assign a job to each note so they're all collectively in one place. I find the keyword search function to not work well—not sure if this is because it doesn't parse the resumes well, or what. But a lot of resumes seem to be missed. Boolean is a common tool to use when head hunting and it doesn't work well in this software. I find a lot of how ApplicantPro works to be pretty manual and repetitive.

Two things. One, I like the access it gives us without additional effort to a variety of job boards (Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, etc.). Two, the ability to create questionarres that each candidate has to fill out by lead and include custom weights associated to the response given is unique to ApplicantPro (or not common). The inclusion of an API set is advantageous, enabling us to download data and conduct secondary evaluations based on résumé content rather than just questionnaire responses. This flexibility in customization and integration makes ApplicantPro a valuable asset for our staffing needs. Lastly, the price-to-value ratio of ApplicantPro is outstanding, making it a highly recommendable solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the user interface of ApplicantPro not as polished as other applicant tracking systems. Although functionally it is better in certain aspects and offers unique features, the UI does not have the same level of refinement seen in other systems, such as ADP. Still, the power of ApplicantPro's features makes it more compelling than other solutions that have nicer UIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really value how ApplicantPro presents applications with resumes, interview questions, and notes conveniently on the side, which greatly enhances my ability to present candidates to hiring managers in a professional and comprehensive manner. Additionally, the ease of setting up ApplicantPro was impressive. I was able to train myself and then effectively train the rest of the team, creating job templates and questions to suit our firm’s needs. Everyone quickly learned how to use ApplicantPro effectively, which demonstrates its user-friendly interface. The hiring managers find reviewing candidates straightforward, which is a testament to its intuitive design. Overall, I find ApplicantPro extremely beneficial for streamlining our recruitment processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am frustrated that ApplicantPro doesn't integrate with our system, Paycom. Despite being able to use it to standard for most purposes, this lack of integration feels limiting. Additionally, I wish the process of building groups with candidates were easier, as it currently poses some challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using ApplicantPro as our ATS for about seven years, primarily to post job ads and accept applications. The implementation of ApplicantPro as our first ATS was smooth and was greatly aided by an excellent support team that assisted us through implementation, training, and rollout to multiple locations and users. I highly appreciate ApplicantPro's outstanding customer service, which has consistently exceeded expectations, particularly in managing the rollout to a team of diverse skills. One of the most beneficial aspects of ApplicantPro is how it has streamlined the hiring process, allowing managers to receive applications directly without causing bottlenecks, which is particularly vital given that the recruiting team is solely myself. The software's capability to post ads on over 20 job boards at once significantly reduces my workload. Additionally, the feature that scores applicants is remarkably useful as it helps managers concentrate on quality candidates that best match job requirements. I am attracted to improvements like the potential addition of AI features, such as a chatbot, which demonstrates their commitment to innovation. My positive experiences with their great customer service and the system's contribution to hiring efficiency make me inclined to continue using ApplicantPro and recommend it highly.

I think ApplicantPro could benefit from incorporating more AI capabilities, such as an AI chatbot for applicants and AI interviewing features. Additionally, I feel there's room to improve by increasing the functionality across applicant profiles to streamline information and notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how simple this software is at streamlining the entire process from both sides. ApplicantPro makes it easy for me to look good by posting jobs quickly and to a huge variety of sites. They also create a great applicant experience. This combined brings great applicants in and makes reviewing and communicating with them significantly easier than any of our prior systems.

Honestly, I have had no real downside. Our teams have all appreciated the ability to review applicants in a common space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using ApplicantPro for a year and a half to meet the staffing needs of my company. I appreciate its intuitive interface, which has made my initial experience seamless. One of the features I truly enjoy is the ability to save templates and adjust them easily when publishing job postings as needed. This flexibility is crucial for maintaining an effective hiring strategy. Additionally, the functionality provided by ApplicantPro stands out for me. Despite corporate directives to use a secondary ATS, we continue utilizing ApplicantPro because we prefer its functionality. The system aids in sourcing local applicants efficiently within a reasonable timeframe, which is a significant advantage. I find being able to quickly adjust job postings and track changes essential for improving recruitment timeframes. Seeing the status of applicants and having the capability to add notes for both our team and hiring managers simplify managing recruitment stages. Specifically, the status tracking for applicants and the job posting AI tools are invaluable resources within ApplicantPro. These tools allow us to maintain greater control and insight over potential hires, contributing to a streamlined recruitment process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

{"There is no integration with UKGPro, which is a significant factor because corporate has directed using another ATS that does have this integration.","Initially knowing which job boards to post to was a challenge and required learning through experience and data tracking."} Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how ApplicantPro facilitates the hiring process by posting ads on platforms like Indeed and offering an efficient platform to search for candidates. This efficiency significantly streamlines my recruitment efforts. I also appreciate the ease of setting up the system, as it was straightforward and enhanced by helpful support from Lonnie, who provided a fast tutorial. The search bar is particularly useful, enabling quick and effective candidate searches. What stands out to me is the overall satisfaction with the current state of the software, as I prefer to keep it as it is, demonstrating that the features and functionality already meet my needs and expectations.

I find it challenging that there isn't an easy way to identify applicants who have previously applied. It would be helpful if they could be highlighted in a different color or marked in some way, allowing us to make quicker decisions on whether to proceed or move on.

We use this tool every day as we are always hiring for open positions. ApplicantPro is very intuitive and easy to use from install to expert level. It's robust with the different options and offerings to help even the most seasoned recruiter to the most basic hiring manager. For the things you may not know or for new tools that were just developed and rolled out, your account rep will check in and run you through all of those to make sure you are getting the most bang for your buck. We have been with ApplicantPro since 2015 now and not looking to move away in the indefinite future.

It was super easy to implement with the help of the ApplicantPro team. Also easy to train our managers on it whether they are new or just starting to hire for a position they haven't had open in a long time. Integration is a piece of cake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't call it a dislike, but it could change it's look just a little. The color scheme is not my favorite and the fonts and layout feel just a bit like 15 years old. Even if the color scheme was customizable, that might be cool. But definitely can make the layout look a little newer without much effort. But in the grand scheme of things, we don't mind. But when I've showed it to my colleagues who were shopping ATS systems, they told me it looks dated and I couldn't disagree. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I deeply appreciate ApplicantPro for its ease of use right from the setup stage, where a representative assisted with creating necessary templates and configurations tailored to my company's needs, making the initial process seamless. For seven years, it has been my go-to tool for recruiting all open positions, offering a consistent and streamlined process unlike the cumbersome paper applications we used before, where incomplete applications often complicated recruitment. The convenience of accessing applications from anywhere—be it at work, home, or vacation—eliminates any geographical constraints, ensuring no loss of important documents. The integration with background checks is another standout feature; it simplifies starting and tracking the status of these checks with ease, a critical part of our hiring process. I also love the communication flexibility ApplicantPro provides, allowing me to choose between emailing and texting candidates, the latter being particularly favored by many applicants. Moreover, the pricing is competitive, delivering excellent value, and is matched by the exemplary customer service I consistently receive. All these factors together make ApplicantPro a reliable and indispensable recruiting platform that I am happy to recommend with high confidence, represented by my perfect score of 10 for recommendation likelihood.

One thing that would be nicer is if within the text system, people could upload documents or pictures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
