## CATS Reviews
  ### 1. Decent ATS but I'm sure there's better ones out there

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Staffing and Recruiting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

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

I like how you can customize fields and the UI is easy to read and use

**What do you dislike about CATS?**

Little to no reporting or data, there's some weird functionalities if you want to pull reports and download CSV of candidates and it's not very apparent and TONS of bugs and issues that will take a day or two to resolve.

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

Storing candidate data and tracking them through the process.
