"Quick and easy resume management"

4/5

What do you like best about Cinode?

It gives a good overview on skills and it's easy to build and tweak resumes for different clients. The ability to upload a resume when we get a new employee and convert it to fit the format that are used in Cinode saves us time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cinode?

Too many clicks when navigating the site. Some improvements could be made to the menu and the submenus. The Hem menu and Organisation menu show the tabs as submenus. In Nätverk there are tabs in some of the options. It would be clearer if it could be seen that there are tabs directly in the menu to the left shown as submenus. That would make it faster for us to navigate to the right place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies and speeds up the recruiting process with a continuous development of user profiles."

5/5

What do you like best about Cinode?

Its flexibility to update information in profiles.

A profile can be set for a certain customer/project and irrelevant information can be taken off.

It offers quick features to add skills and competence which really assists a user to create useful content for the target organization/corporation. It also enhances transparency with key words and tools/ method/ strategies that companies are looking for.

This gives an overall structured format for consultant firms and even for individuals. It's hard to write a genuine attractive CV and extremely time consuming! Cinode takes off that extra weight off your back.

I also like how we have the option to look at other colleagues' profiles for motivation and inspiration. Sometimes examples help better than actual explanations.

To sum it all up, it is a smart way to keep track of your (or your team's) profile, because your cv changes as you develop as a person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cinode?

Have a clearer (prettier) way to show the max limit of words in a section. It can look a bit messy if you don't know beforehand that your text is too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Big thanks Tanjina, we are happy to hear this, and great feedback as well regarding the max limit of characters, I will add that to our product board!

"Efficiency"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Cinode?

Effective system that is user-friendly. Easy to learn and like the preview function. It is also possible to save your documents as a Word or PDF file, which makes it easier for me as I don't have to convert the file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cinode?

I think the page/system can sometimes be a bit slow, especially when updating one's CV or text and going in and out of it, it tends to freeze, I feel. Then I've been afraid of losing what I've written. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it a bit difficult to use as a recrutiment company plattform for the whole company, including sales etc.

The candidate process is not the smoothest, so I'm not really useing the Candidate feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One system to rule them all"

5/5

What do you like best about Cinode?

Made by consultants for consultants, Cinode products are developed as an answer to our specific needs, processes and business. The CV system makes our daily work more accessible and creates better business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cinode?

It requires some time to learn and understand the logic behind the CV system, but it's worth the effort, and the help desk does an excellent job supporting our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cinode solving and how is that benefiting you?

We don't use and utilize all products yet. Still, I'm convinced that connecting skills, business, partners and networks in one common platform is a powerful tool for any consulting business. We benefit a lot from having a state-of-the-art CV system that generates excellent CV:s in no time and is easy to communicate with colleagues. We also have a good platform for handling our subcontractors, making the administrative work more agile. Also, our communication with subcontractors, partners and customers tends to be more professional using Cinode products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
