"Highly recommend Lever for your next ATS!"
5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

We have been using Lever for about 2 years now, and we absolutely love it. Beautiful interface, super easy to use. Also love how they are staying up to date with the latest and greatest technology and incorporating AI into their platform. Can't recommend them enough! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

I think the Virtual Insights (metrics) version of the platform can be tough to get learn, but once you do it's super powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Interface, But Frequent Bugs Disrupt Experience"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

Easy to use UI/UX and workflow. I really don't have anything else major I like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

My main concern is that Lever is buggy, like frequently. No mobile app. Reporting could be vastly improved. There are more fake candidates now than ever, and y'all need a blocking feature similar to Greenhouse (where you can mark candidates as spam, saving time). I'm a Greenhouse SME and believe their ATS is far superior for the growth that we need as a company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Product, Ruined by Pathetic Support"
0/5
What do you like best about Lever?

There’s a lot to like about Lever — the interface is clean, the workflows are thoughtfully designed, and it has some genuinely helpful features. But none of that matters when the support experience is so poor that it overshadows everything else. If you're using Lever from India, be prepared for long delays, unresponsive support, and a complete lack of urgency. It turns every strength of the platform into a source of frustration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

Yes, Lever comes with a few useful features, but let’s be honest — those features aren’t unique. Almost every other ATS out there offers similar or even better capabilities. And sadly, even the most basic features that Lever claims to have — ones that should work without a hitch — are often broken, buggy, or behave unpredictably.

But what truly pushes this platform into a complete no-go zone is their atrocious customer support. It is, without exaggeration, one of the worst support experiences I’ve had with any SaaS platform. For every single issue — even a simple fix — you’re expected to follow up repeatedly. Not just once or twice, but 20+ times, over days or weeks. And after all that? Still no resolution. You’re left hanging.

Their support team rarely, if ever, gets on a call to resolve critical issues. Instead, you’re stuck in an endless loop of templated email responses, delays, and complete disregard for customer urgency. It doesn’t matter how much you’re paying or how large your team is — you’ll get the same poor treatment across the board.

So here’s the reality: your ROI will tank, your team will grow increasingly frustrated, and you’ll waste an enormous amount of time and energy chasing support for things that should just work.

My advice? Avoid Lever. Look elsewhere. There are better platforms with actual accountability and respect for their customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good platform - easy to use"
5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

Easy to use, the support team is very fast and helpful. Very intuitive platform, even for non-tech savvy employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

I wish I could repost jobs without having to close and repost them. Like a refresh button for job boards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lever Enhanced Everything!"
5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

The most helpful part of lever is the ability to post one job posting to multiple sites with a click of a button (internal, external and not listed). The reporting features are extremely nice as well! The integration of the service across platforms was also pretty easy! The most difficult part of the process was actually on LinkedIn's side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

I don't dislike anything about lever - there is just a learning curve for companies that have never used this type of technology before. However, our Implementation specialist, Ally Nguyen, has held our hands the whole way and has been extremely helpful and responsive - no matter how dumb the question is.

"Professional, Streamlined, and HR-Focused Platform"
5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

Lever stands out as a highly professional platform, offering an advanced and well-organized workspace for both reporting and tracking candidates. The user roles are distinctly defined, which helps approval workflows run seamlessly. It is clear that the platform was developed with a strong focus on HR needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

I don’t have any negative thoughts about Lever. If I think really hard, I could say it would be nice if it were a bit more colorful, but that’s honestly not important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great product with some limitations"
4/5
What do you like best about Lever?

LinkedIn RSC Integration and data explorer add-on. The RSC integration prevents copy/paste to track InMail outreach, and notes made in LIR are mirrored in Lever. The data explorer add on is a game changer for custom reporting. There is a bit of a learning curve but it's not steep, the way the data points are organized is intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lever?

The Standardized Candidate Location update that was presented as a product improvement in Feb 2024 is still malfunctioning over a year later. Lever inputs candidate located in NYC as Ontario; in CHI as Spain, etc. There is no way to update this in bulk myself and engineering has not offered a fix a year later.

The EasyBook links are limited, the ability to share a link by copy/paste is critical for user adoption.

I also dislike that one candidate can be added to a job multiple times. I don't see any use case for one candidate appearing in different pipeline stages for a single job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Phenomenal + Integrations are great!"
5/5
What do you like best about Lever?

It is super user-friendly but the key thing is how it integrates with a lot of hiring websites such as Indeed, LinkedIn etc. and this has helped traction significantly while helping us be more cost effective - because it takes away from the additional sponsoring.

What do you dislike about Lever?

Reporting can be better and user friendly for folks that may not be comfortable interpreting data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
