## BrassRing Reviews
  ### 1. IBM Kenexa (Brassring) review

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Swapnil K. | Assistant Manager - Talent Acquisition, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2021

**What do you like best about BrassRing?**

Well suited for maintaining large scale data
Multiple users supported 
It can be integrated with other databases
Works best if not combined with other tools
Easy UAT
Easy workflow

**What do you dislike about BrassRing?**

Outdated System, worked three years with this tool
Operation slows down if integrated with other tools. When I used it, tool was combined with HireAlchamey's Edge, Talview, and internal BGV tool.
Not user friendly for external candidates, trying to apply or upload candidature
UAT may take a longer time 
Report generation

**Recommendations to others considering BrassRing:**

I learned from procurement that IBM Kenexa Talent Acquisition Suite is a very expensive software and strongly felt it was overprosied. It is also outdated and not so user friendly. If your organization uses SAP for HRMS/Operation/payroll-related modules, it can be integrated very well. However, there are a lot of good options available in the market in less price.

**What problems is BrassRing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have used IBM Kenexa for ATS activities, Report generation, initiating background verification.
The only benefit I could think of is that tool can support multiple users and multiple log-ins.

  ### 2. Does the job....slowly

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 26, 2019

**What do you like best about BrassRing?**

I'm not sure I can say there is anything I like "best." It is what it is. I guess it is nice you can customize your home page with the screens you need to see.

**What do you dislike about BrassRing?**

Not intutive or user friendly; interface is very old looking, when you have candidates on multiple pages, it is VERY difficult to get thorugh all the pages. When you click 'next,' the screen goes blank or doesn't load. I have to get creative on how to view all the candidates or I have to completely leave the requisition altogether and go back in. This gets very, very frustrating.

**Recommendations to others considering BrassRing:**

The integration of this platform into our career site has been challenging - customer service has been awful.

**What problems is BrassRing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use this platform to keep track of all of our requisitions and candidates within each. Because I recruit from universities specifically and additionally use their platform, it is helpful that this platform has the abilty for me to utilize the "campus gateway" posting solely and therefore doesn't require me to field candidats who aren't qualified. 

  ### 3. Room for improvement 

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2018

**What do you like best about BrassRing?**

Easy to understand and intuitive for new and inexperienced users 

**What do you dislike about BrassRing?**

Does not provide a customizable experience; the recruitment process has to fit in with the software, rather than the other way. Does not port new hires into HRIS. 

**Recommendations to others considering BrassRing:**

Make sure that you can change your internal processes to meet the process of the software. 

**What problems is BrassRing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Maintaining pipeline 

  ### 4. Kenexa: Time to Up the Ante

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Aviation & Aerospace | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 02, 2015

**What do you like best about BrassRing?**

Kenexa (previously outstart) is easy to use when it comes to PowerPoint-esque development, especially for large groups of developers with a few people who know all of the ropes for when anything big comes up. It's laid out well and it can support large amounts of content, with multiple people looking at and editing the same courseware at the same time. It's online so easy to access.

The review capability is great as well, as it is all done online in the tool.

**What do you dislike about BrassRing?**

Kenexa just needs to catch up with other programs that offer more flexibility and access. They seem to have JUST caught up with PowerPoint in terms of animations and interactions, and that tool is as old as time (I'm pretty sure, right?).

It takes a lot of effort to set up courseware and requires programmers and experts in the program. Even layouts, despite adding visual tools, aren't easy to figure out. While development is easier once it's in progress, it's not easy to start.

Kenexa also needs to work out a lot of kinks, in both development and in exports. They have a few too many bugs/limits. For example, you can't copy and paste from word else hidden html code ruins exports and causes crashing. They need to start looking at xAPI tracking as well, since it's the future.


**Recommendations to others considering BrassRing:**

It can take a while to see improvements in the product, so expect that what you see is what you get. Determine what is most important to you in terms of development - large scale with great collaboration and review functionality- or a higher level of interaction and flexibility. This will help guide you in your decision.

**What problems is BrassRing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Large-scale development with a high threshold for content and easy access by developers and reviewers. 

  ### 5. Kenexa BrassRing Not My Cup of Tea

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Public Relations and Communications | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2014

**What do you like best about BrassRing?**

It does allow for organizing candidates.

**What do you dislike about BrassRing?**

not user friendly, looks old, not intuitive

**What problems is BrassRing solving and how is that benefiting you?**

tracking candidates -- being able to see a candidate through the hiring process
