"A great product"
4/5
What do you like best about Workable?

I think Workable is great. It's easy to use, personal, intuitive and allows us the benefit of an off the shelf product (in terms of customer support, account manager and pricing) but with all the benefits of a customisable, bespoke system. We use it for all our vacancies (and therefore use it quite a lot at the moment) and we really like it. We also really value our regular upskilling sessions with our account manager so that we're getting the most out of it, and that we know how to use all the features well.

What do you dislike about Workable?

There are some parts of workable that I find tricky to use - for example some of the menu headings aren't the most intuitive to understand what is in that heading which leads to multiple clicks and searching to find the right thing. This is a minor complaint however!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Workable ATS – Streamlined & Intuitive Recruitment Platform"
5/5
What do you like best about Workable?

We've been using Workable as our global Applicant Tracking System (ATS), and it's been a game-changer in managing our end-to-end recruitment process. From job posting to candidate evaluation, the platform is intuitive, scalable, and highly collaborative.

What we appreciate:

✅ Clean and easy-to-use interface – Simple for recruiters and hiring managers to navigate

✅ Streamlined collaboration – Hiring teams can review resumes, provide feedback, and move candidates through defined pipelines with full visibility

✅ Centralized tracking – All candidate activity, notes, and communications are stored in one place

✅ Auto-join feature – Seamless access for internal users via company email domains

✅ Analytics – Useful reporting on source performance, pipeline stages.

✅ Customer Support - The customer support is responsive and helpful, ensuring quick resolution of queries. The AI-powered Help Center is especially impressive — it's intuitive, self-serve, and makes it easy to find answers without waiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Candidate onboarding – This is currently managed outside of Workable, so additional tools or processes are required post-offer acceptance

Limited native integrations – Certain third-party tools require manual handling or custom integration for assessments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very intuitive, only let down slightly by possible speed/RAM issues."
4/5
What do you like best about Workable?

Intuitive - it only take a couple of minutes to teach new managers how to use and what they should be doing.

Everything is easy to find and is where it should be thanks to the tabs.

Any issues, the support is great and they do try to accommodate things that suit your business.

Integrates well with other apps and software.

As a recruiter, has all the features I would like such as keywords, multiple locations, job categorisation, reasons for disqualifying and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Speed. There are certain screens where it respond noticably more slowly. It seems like it takes up a lot of RAM on the computer, though some of my colleagues don't report this issue so may be my computer but it doesn't do this with other sites/tabs. When typing, it almost freezes and takes a long time for the information to appear and so to limit mistakes, it is best to type on Notepad and then copy and paste it in later.

Response from Cali McCoy of Workable

Hi James - thanks so much for the detailed feedback! We're glad to hear that Workable's ease of use, recruiter-friendly features, and integrations are making a difference for you and your team. It's also great to know our support team has been helpful when needed. We appreciate your note on speed and RAM usage - we'll be sure to share this with our product and engineering teams for review. Thank you again for sharing your experience!

"The most candidate and recruiter friendly platform ever used"
5/5
What do you like best about Workable?

The way you can search within the platform, not just by roles, time frame, candidate name as well as the easiness to interact with candidate directly from the platform while your co-recuiters can see all past interaction records. This ensures seamlessness. Intergration with our email system (gmail professional) is also very smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

none, they have made continued improvement since the last 3-5 years and we are really satisfied with the current functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Workable is User Friendly and the Metrics are Imroving"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable is very user friendly and intuitive. It is a great collaborative space for our recruiting team to thoroughly vet each candidate that applies. In particular I like the project management like stages that you can physically move candidates through, and all evaluations are tied to those stages. My division uses this tool almost daily, and it is simple to add new users and get them up to speed quickly. Another strength is its integration with MS Outlook making scheduling and email communication seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

While I do like that the reporting functions are there and are improving over time, the definitions of some of the metrics need some work. For example, time to fill and time to hire have some grayness that would benefit from clearer definitions and visibility into how they are calculated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cali McCoy of Workable

Hi Heather - thank you for the detailed feedback! We're glad to hear Workable is supporting your team's collaboration and daily recruiting workflows, especially the candidate stages and Outlook integration. We also appreciate your notes on metric definitions; clarify around reporting is a key area we're actively working to improve. Thanks for helping us get better, and for being a part of the Workable community!

"A Streamlined, Stress-Free Hiring Experience"
4/5
What do you like best about Workable?

What I liked most about Workable is how easy and efficient it makes the entire hiring process. The interface is incredibly intuitive, which made it simple to post jobs, track applicants, and collaborate with hiring managers. I especially appreciated the automation features—like email templates and interview scheduling—which saved us a lot of time. It truly felt like everything we needed was in one place, and it helped keep our team aligned and organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

What I liked least about Workable was the limited customization in some of the reporting features. While the built-in reports are helpful, it would be great to have more flexibility in tailoring them to our specific metrics or exporting data in more detailed formats. Additionally, some integrations required a bit of extra configuration to work smoothly. That said, these were relatively minor issues in an otherwise excellent platform.

Response from Cali McCoy of Workable

"Efficient and user-friendly ATS that simplifies the hiring process"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable stands out with its intuitive user interface and end-to-end hiring pipeline visibility. It offers a centralized platform where I can post jobs to multiple boards, manage candidate pipelines, schedule interviews, and collaborate with hiring managers all in one place. The customizable templates for job descriptions and emails save a lot of time. I especially appreciate the seamless integration with calendar tools and email systems, making coordination easier. The reporting and analytics feature gives a clear view of hiring metrics, helping us improve continuously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workable?

While Workable performs exceptionally well, I’ve found that the mobile app is a bit limited compared to the desktop version. Some integrations require higher-tier plans, which may not be ideal for small teams. Also, bulk resume download and advanced search filters could be improved to enhance candidate management for larger hiring campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
