“Intuitive, flexible, and really well-designed.”

Crelate was suggested to Xtra Effort by another small recruiting firm. We were hesitant to consider change because of the fear of disruption associated with data conversion and the learning curve. Those fears were alleviated for two reasons: Crelate’s technology is intuitive, flexible, and really well designed — and Crelate’s people are super responsive, thoughtful, creative, and resourceful. We’re a smaller agency, but Crelate made us feel like the most important customer.

Customer service and support are incredible — very responsive. The platform is solid as a rock: easy to use, manage, and update. The usability is fantastic, and it’s easy to use when training and onboarding new recruiters. To manage relationships with clients and candidates on a single platform, Crelate is better than anything I’ve used in my 17 years of executive search.

“The best part about Crelate is the support.”

Whenever I have a question they are incredibly responsive. Recently I re-branded my firm — new name, new website — and their support engineer worked alongside me to make sure everything launched without a hitch. The product is terrific and it does what I need an applicant tracking system to do without getting bogged down with stuff I don’t need. And they really listen: on several occasions I’ve suggested improvements and they built them into their next quarterly release.

The thing that jumped out about Crelate was its configurability. It was like we had an open book — we could really mold it to what works for our business, both from a recruiting standpoint and for the sales workflow. We felt like we were going to get the care and support we needed.

You can actually customize your own workflow. The interface lets you drag and drop between stages, and send automated, customized emails at each stage of the recruiting process. It lets me work quickly and efficiently, the way I want to work. In my 25-year recruiting career, I’ve never seen an ATS company this responsive to requests for help and new features.

When I saw the product in the demo I was thrilled — it’s the kind of product you can use without training. The home page is an overview of your open positions and the candidates in your funnel. Everything is intuitive and easy to understand; you can easily guess where to go to find data and take action. It’s very easy to customize all data input fields and detailed reporting. So far, I’m happy to have chosen it.

Intuitive, robust, makes sense — it works like a recruiter works. The support is super responsive, timely, and focused on making everything work just right. We’re approaching our first anniversary with Crelate and we could not be happier with the system. We should have switched long ago.
