Avionté Software vs. Zoho Recruit

Very good for applicant/candidate/job activity tracking. It could use improvement in the area of Customer Relationship Management. It does not have a robust CRM function, which would be very beneficial to have encompassed in the ATS system so everything is in one place.

With the business I am in I have to be able to search and reach potential candidates from hours away due to the scope of the contract we have covering a solid couple hundred sq. miles of the state; so being able to have a software that can search, sort, rank, and suggest candidates without having to spend ours of time or driving hours for an interview I can connect with one person and make a decision and have the software there for them and send an email or two with the steps and instructions and 5 minutes later be doing the same for another candidate hours away without even needing to leave the office or even from home and knowing that I'm able to monitor and adjust the steps or make adjustments along the way and being able to trust that it is choosing quality candidates and able to help me hire the right people to do my job to keep my contractors and homeowners safe is amazing for our business.

• The Google Chrome integration allows to have total control over the communications and sends the registry to Compas immediately. Also allows sending Google mail directly from the Compas app.
• Allows to keep track of the whole work history and experience of each one of the employees, start dates, interviews, pay rates and termination reasons, as well as to send mass emails and text messages to employees.
• It's fully customizable if you need to add a specific feature their support and is responsive and allows the intended customization.
• It is a great reporting tool. You can track the performance and activities of your recruiters, make sure they are doing the pertinent contacts and follow-ups and complete their assigned tasks, also allows pulling reports on employees placed on assignment.

• Like other HR-based services, Zoho Recruit allows you to track the behavior of candidates during the execution of your hiring process, so that you can create constant notes of any problems that may arise and that may prevent a proper job.
• The relationship between employers and candidates can be measured, which is excellent for creating reports on the development of each hiring process, and employees can then be evaluated on their ability to manage and communicate correctly with each candidate under their direct care.
• Hiring sessions can be recorded using a variety of methods. It does not necessarily have to be done using an audiovisual recording tool (which is possible through different integrations) but a convenient recording system that allows you to note down important data, and where even the candidate's photographs can be saved.
• We believe that some features of Zoho Recruit's support service could be improved, although this is probably a general service by the Zoho team for all their programs. The staff is not sufficiently explanatory, and therefore we have not been able to meet our expectations for troubleshooting.
• We like that using Zoho Recruit is so convenient, and that it interfaces well with the other services that the entire Zoho suite has to offer: Zoho Recruit is a good alternative for human resources, which shows a reliable and easy-to-manage operability, so that all registration and follow-up processes are simple.

• If candidates submit a cover letter, it is only accessible through the "docs" tab. Or if they are nominated to the Hiring Manager and then the attachments come through. Other than that, there is no easy way to tell if a candidate has submitted a cover letter other than manually opening each candidate profile up. It would be nice if Hiring Managers could see if there is a cover letter attachment in the pipeline overview.
• Emails aren't syncing properly from Gmail. I wish that once we sent a candidate a Gmail from Compass that all subsequent threads/ replies would be tracked in Compass so it would be all in on place.. easy to reference.
• You can't move applicants from pipeline to the nominated status. It would be nice if there was most flexibility between moving candidates from pipeline to pipeline and to the nominated status.

• When searching for a name, it brings up much too broad of a list.
• Adding candidates from LinkedIn sometimes has a lengthy delay and takes up to 2 minutes to be able to search from them, though I have found a workaround by navigating to the home page to find activity of adding a candidate.
• Would be helpful if it were more intuitive with adding duplicates.

We have evaluated every other ATS on the market, and do so every 1-2 years just to make sure we aren't missing out on anything better, and found that Zoho offers more functionality than any ATS with a per-recruiter-price under $100. Once it introduces automated job alerts and candidate login functionality there will be no reason for us to look elsewhere.

There isn't much training provided outside of internal training across our company. Also, if Avionté Software could review the way we're using the software, on a regular basis, and provide feedback and suggestions on how to improve the user experience, that would be very beneficial.

The user interface looks clunky and designed by engineers. I suspect it didn't undergo much user testing.

I give Zoho Recruit this rating because over all, it has helped me to organize my candidates and saved me time and energy in organizing them myself. Without Zoho Recruit, I simply would not be able to keep my talent pool straight, and it certainly gets the job done. I took off a couple points because if I download a resume after already inputting the candidate into Zoho, it won't automatically sync the two profiles up. It also does not remind me when a task is expired.

Avionté is more modern than PCR. I also know a lot of functions in PCR (that I didn't use) were more clunky than they are in Avionte. Avionté is also more suited for the account management and sales side of our business than PCR was, whereas PCR was more geared towards recruiters exclusively.

Zoho Recruit is far superior to all the other tools I evaluated. It alows for a ton of customization across the application. Templates and automated workflows allow for streamlining processes. It has integrations with several Zoho products and external tools, including Zapier. It provides a set of APIs to use with it. It allows for to-do lists with reminders. It allows for storage of all documents shared by candidates, including assignments. It allows you to create customized offer letters for candidates and keep track of them through the application. None of these capabilites are available in the other tools that I experimented with

• The application crashed for three business days last year.
• The movement is very easy so it is fast to send statements as long as no credit or revision.
• For the cost it gets all jobs done so that is positive.

• I can't say anything about ROI, but Zoho Recruit made our recruitment process highly effective.
• We did not need to hire more HR managers as the system helped to manage the processes automatically.
• We saved money with Zoho Recruit for sure. And this was very best.
