"Fast Results and Easy Platform, But Can Be Pricey and Info-Heavy"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Certn?

You can receive results within the same day, which is very convenient. The platform is easy to use and offers a lot of options for background and internal verification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Certn?

Some of the services offered on the site are somewhat expensive. When applicants are asked to submit their information and they enter it incorrectly, CERTN sometimes fails to recognize it, which can lead to the application being flagged for review or marked as incomplete. This often results in the applicant needing to visit the RCMP in person for a background check. Additionally, our new hires have mentioned that the process requires a significant amount of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
