"Effortless Background Checks, Seamless Integration"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Checkr?

I really like how Checkr integrates with our applicant tracking system, making it super easy to request background checks. It takes me less than 30 seconds to initiate a background check, and then the applicant gets a notification to enter their personal information, which saves me from added administrative work. The initial setup and implementation of Checkr was also extremely easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Checkr?

Making sure that I have supporting documentation and detail for invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Platform with Slow Turnaround Times"
2/5
What do you like best about Checkr?

I find Checkr to be user-friendly and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Checkr?

Turnaround times can sometimes be slow, and customer service sucks. No dedicated customer success manager if you don't spend a certain amount of money, and you are forced to chat with an AI bot. When I've actually spoken to their human customer support team, they haven't been much more helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable and fast background check solution"
5/5
What do you like best about Checkr?

Checkr is very easy to use on a daily basis. We run background checks regularly, and the process is fast and consistent. The platform is intuitive, and the implementation was straightforward—it didn’t take long to get everything set up and integrated with our hiring system. I also like that the reports are detailed but still easy to review and share with our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Checkr?

Sometimes, the status updates can be a little vague, especially if there's a delay. It would be helpful to have clearer messaging when a report is held up or needs additional info. Also, support response time can vary depending on the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Damien S. of Checkr

Thank you for sharing this! We're glad the speed and workflow status visibility have improved your time-to-start metric and been a stronger experience than your previous vendor. We also hear your feedback on the pass-through fees for employment and education verifications, unfortunately we don't have a lot of control over some of the fees associated with certain searches but we've shared your feedback with our team. Thanks for taking the time to write this!
