Workable pros and cons

  • Simplifies recruitment by centralizing candidate information, increasing organization, and ensuring seamless collaboration across teams.

  • Offers a user-friendly interface for onboarding hiring managers and recruiters with minimal training.

  • Automates manual tasks like job board postings, candidate tracking, and offer letter issuance, saving considerable time and effort.

  • Integration with email platforms, calendars, and HRIS systems enhances workflow efficiency and communication.

  • Limited flexibility and customization options, such as restrictions on editing workflows and approval pathways, which can be a challenge for larger organizations.

  • Reporting features can be insufficient for advanced analytics; custom reports are often delayed and require additional costs.

My FAVORITE ATS.

What do you like best? I wish they expanded their overall products and features. This ATS would be a game changer if it was more robust. Best User Interface. Streamlined. Easy. Very Sleek Look. What do you dislike? Really only geared towards small companies because it doesn't have a huge amount of features. There's no option to develop your own career site, it comes standard with Workable. At the time we had an issue with workable on Craiglist and couldn't post the link to ...

Workable Review

What do you like best? - General usability and intuitive usage - Ability to tag and search tags is helpful - The fact that emails are linked so that full interactions are logged is helpful What do you dislike? Suggestions rather than criticisms but: - When i've made a mistake and moved someone into a stage which I then want to delete so the colleagues don't wrongly assume they've moved further than they have - Would be great if you could rate good candidates or have ...

Great Platform

What do you like best? I found the layout of the platform really easy to use. If was great to be able to see how many applications were at each stage of the process. I also liked being able to easily track all communications with candidates through the platform. Was also great to be able to collaborate with other members of the organisation through the comments features. What do you dislike? What I really would have like was a IOS mobile app. The mobile website worked fine, but I ...

Great product some tweaks would be ideal

What do you like best? I really like workable. It's user friendly and intuitive. It's also at a reasonable price point. I like that all members of my team can use it What do you dislike? I don't like that someone can apply several times and that there a multiple profiles. I don't like that you've hidden the job codes when looking at the jobs on workable. I don't like that you can no longer download profiles from LinkedIn....I'm assuming that LinkedIn changed something on their end ...

Workable is a great, easy to use solution for our company's rapid growth

What do you like best? I come from an HR/Recruiting background and was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to learn the ins and outs of Workable. Within less than a week, I was already well versed with the site and most of the functions. It's easily one of the most attractive, user friendly ATSs I've ever used. Whenever I do have a question, the Workable staff are always quick to respond with a solution. There have been rare occasions when Workable hasn't had a function I was ...

Workable has streamlined our interview and hiring process

What do you like best? We were doing things the old fashioned way with sheets in a shared drive basically trying to track things manually. We looked at a lot of solutions and Workable seemed to fit our online centric collaborative culture. My core responsibilities are not related to interviewing and hiring so I love that I can quickly get pulled into the process, leave my feedback and then check in as needed. Also if I need some back ground info on a candidate and where they are in the ...

Time Saver

What do you like best? The timeline and emailing feature really keep us organized What do you dislike? Timeliness of background checks can be a bit long. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Workable saves us time! It also gives us a much more in depth look at candidates.

Won't give me the time of day

I am a professional recruitment firm startup. I tried to begin my free trial with Workable to see if they would become my primary ATS/job posting board. I was brushed off by them and rejected an account since my company does not have a website. I tried to inquire further other ways to verify my business, even emailed the CEO about my situation. But the CEO deferred my message to another employee that told me I didnt want to "waste my time" posting jobs on their site. Very poor customer ...

Poor Results

Applications for Jobs were poor quality. Many of them are not interested, don't attend interview. Many candidates are not looking for the kinda role they applied for, which makes you think that their site doesnt work too well.

Great ATS

What do you like best? Very easy to use interface, being able to construct your own hiring process/pipeline is a great feature, and really easy to do. Also, the new People Search Chrome plugin is very useful. Good integration with lots of candidate sources. What do you dislike? Nothing really, the only improvement could be more drill downs on reporting. Recommendations to others considering the product: In-app chat support is quick and easy - use it. What problems are ...
