## ICIMS Reviews
  ### 1. Lots of features...but tons of upgrades needed with terrible customer service

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 11, 2024

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

It is a robust, flexible system good for most companies.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

Products are not complete from a recruiters point of view.  Little things like AA compliance, working with job boards properly etc.   Customer service is mostly outsourced and via chat.  Very hard to get someone on the phone to solve problems.

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

It helps organize our resumes into one system.

  ### 2. Room for improvement

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wholesale | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 10, 2024

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

Ability to create multiple hiring portals and posting sites and support gets back to you pretty quickly

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

No point in time reporting, inability to add other documents for signature with the offer letter (commission plan, etc.), and no built in request for offers from hiring managers.

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

iCIMS gives us flexibility in having different career portals for our brands

  ### 3. It's strongest aspect is also it's hindrance.

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Milan M. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2023

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

Text engagement and the ability to use text engagement from a mobile device are stellar features.  Being able to create text campaigns directly from the ATS is a homerun.  Give me the ability to manage, view, and interact with the campaign and my candidates from my mobile device and I'm elated.  Oh, wait.  YOU CAN DO THAT!  Extremely customizable UI.  Nearly any reason for moving forward with a candidate or rejecting a candidate is evident out of the box, and customized prompts can be added as well.  Fully integrates with most onboarding software or HRS.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

The fact that it is so customizable can be a major issue.  Example:  Your previous TA squad created a functional yet bulky weighed down process for processing a candidate through the system because none of them had any previous experience (or poor previous process mocked) with recruiting or talent acquisition.  Fast forward 3 years and a completely new team of individuals with previous experience in both recruiting and using iCIMS is in place.  Now there is major clean up to be done and a whole new process to implement.  And iCIMS may as well be scrapped to it's core and rebuilt from the ground up to be less of a hinderance and more effective.  Ugh.  Careful to whom the keys of the vehicle are given.

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

Primarily, having the ability to create manage and receive data about text campaigns has certainly had a positive impact on our budget.  Where we would usually need to aquire additional software and licences to accomplish this all to necessary task, we are in possesion of the software and only need to upgrade a bit or purchase additional licences.

  ### 4. 10/10 recommend !

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 10, 2024

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

It is very user friendly! We can navigate through applicants quickly and sort them into different statuses.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

Sometimes, I feel customer service doesn't always understand my question and it can be frustrating going back and forth.

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

We are able to review candidates quickly. We are also able to attract more candidates to our open positions.

  ### 5. Informative session on the Talent Cloud

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2024

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

I like that it ranks candidates for you based on your JD.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

The price is a bit much for our organization with the cost of iCIMS plus the other add ins that we find necessary.

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

We have not purchased it yet but it would help us solve high volume roles in order to rank candidates.

  ### 6. I absolutely enjoy Icims. It is easy, and an excellent source to utilze.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** tiana K. | Sr. Recruiter, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

  ### 7. Easy to find talent information

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sally G. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2023

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

I am able to easily search for candidates, download their resumes, find application information, and see what roles they have applied to.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

There are some parts of the website that could be easier to use. For example, the section that shows activity is so small, it would nice to be able to expand this section to see the candidates information. In addition, HR candidates are able to see all roles, including roles they have applied to.

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

I manage the HR campus program and have hundreds of applicants apply for roles. I am able to easily search for a candidate and find relevant information to see if a candidate is qualified for an interview.

  ### 8. ICIMS is hands down  the most robust system

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2024

Love the reporting capabilities, and its ease of use.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

I wish it made it easier for third party integrations.

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

ICIMS is my one stop shop for posting jobs in multiple sites, gathering strong candidate flow, keeping track of where they stand in the process from begging to end.

  ### 9. A porche cost build your own ATS System

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** May 14, 2024

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

Reporting once you understand their structure is pretty good

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

Can't administer role security yourself.  Confusing design for an administrator.  Unable to do a role automation based on termination.  Once roles are created in the system, you cannot remove them.  Navigating the platform is complex and while it's configurable, many of the changes require support to be able to accomplish as there isn't great resources on this.  Offer letters are only able to be approved via email - the system doesn't have capabilities for Hiring Mangers/Approvers to go in and approve.

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

Creating jobs, posting jobs, processing applicants, connecting to our background screening vendor, creating offers, submitting to our HRIS system.

**Official Response from Jenine  Laviola:**

> Hello, thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad to hear you find our reporting to be helpful.

**Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2023

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

It is easy to configure the system to your specific needs without having to request assistance.  If you do have to request assistance, the iCIMS support team is very quick to respond.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

I have no complaints about the system.  Anything that I would like to see is sent in for a suggestion and considered by the products team.  My account rep is also very communicative and easily explains products that we do not currently utilize that fit our requests.

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

It helps us streamline and automate our system.  It has given time back to our recruitment team where they are able to focus on sourcing and conversing vs manually completing tasks.  The integrations with job boards is a large time saver and the automation of the system is very helpful.

  ### 36. Streamline made easy

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** September 29, 2023

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

I love the reliability of it all. There is almost non-existent user disruption. If something is not working it is almost on our end. iCIMS is quick to assist and escalate when issues are business impacting. We have a lot of foot traffic because of the nature of our business and iCIMS is able to provide an environment that we can count on at any point in our traffic. I also love that it is extremely customizable and allows for global teams to have one system and easy to integrate with.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

Reporting is good but they don't have the option to filter out for exact matches. and notification triggers can be improve. A good example is if you want to exclude a specific requisition or employee number that may also be found in another number, it will exclude all matches (a number like 99 would exclude 199, 299, 399 and so on).

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

It automatically updates all government forms and allows us to add task pre-requisites to safeguard the hiring processes. This helps reduce anyone from moving along without having completed our requirements.

  ### 37. Fine as a user, unless you're also an Admin

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2023

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

There's plenty of functionality and customization within the platform - learning your way around the more advanced stuff can be a bit challenging and time consuming, but if you can learn it the perk is the ability to have control over some of the details of the workflow. Integrating with other platforms and HRIS was also pretty easy. Pretty straightforward to use for the basic recruitment ATS functions you need. iCIMS does try to keep up with more modern recruitment trends - CMS, text recruiting, etc., - which I can appreciate.

**What do you dislike about ICIMS?**

The helpdesk and representative partner teams could be a lot more helpful. It seems the team structure there changed a few years ago and the helpdesk has more tiers, which is expected - but it takes more than a couple tries to reach an actual icims IT specialist who understands the issue. There's a couple back and forth emails as you try to explain a basic problem, and  you get the wrong responses for the help you're trying to get. 

The fact that only the Account Holder Admin can submit any kind of helpdesk ticket is not practical for even a smaller organization, or reasonable for turnaround time. This used to not be the case, as regular admins were able to also submit, coordinate, and oversee helpdesk tickets for issues from candidates, employees, hiring managers, and recruiters. This on top of the lagging helpdesk support makes it more frustrating to get effective help.

Reaching your iCIMS account rep has also been increasingly difficult. When we try to reach out it can actually take weeks to hear an answer on urgent items, with constant forwarding, away messages, and organizational changes/turnovers.
Overall customer support has dropped quite drastically over the last few years.

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

A good database of candidate resumes and pipeline history. Ability to custom tag candidates is helpful to the more niche labels in IT.
