Considered Both Products
Checkr
Chose Checkr
We previously used Trusted Employee and it was archaic compared to Checkr. Our main reason for switching over was the integrations aspect.
Chose Checkr
We have not used any services other than Checkr. We started using Checkr over a year ago and have had no need to try other services. Checkr provides us with the services we need in an easy, complete format. Background / Criminal history checking are our primary use of Checkr …
Chose Checkr
The UI was very clean.Its simple and easy to use. I have used a different tool previously but Checkr was faster than the previous tool.

The customer support team is also reliable and very quick to respond.
Chose Checkr
We selected Checkr because our HRIS integrated with it. It also offered better pricing.
Checkr's reports are less detailed than InfoMart but we have confidence they meet any legal ramifications that may arise.

Checkr has the ability to run bulk background checks, which GoodHire did not.
Chose Checkr
Checkr integrated with our HRIS platform and automated the process for us.

Likelihood to Recommend
I wouldn't hesitate recommending it to any talent team hiring at scale. We run large scale hiring campaigns for field teams where new sites ramp up, think 50 plus employees. In those case, chekr's ability to launch and track checks in bulk is a lifesaver.

Equifax Verification is best suited to our needs in our rental application process, whereby applicants 18 years of age and older are required to submit to a credit and background check in order to assess their application. This is in conjunction with following all applicable local, state and federal fair housing regulations, which Equifax does a great job in following, as well

Suppose you are a property manager and would like to verify your tenants' details. In that case, Equifax is one of the most popular and commonly used id verification or background check software that is suggested to use. Cost wise every check is about $13 but it is worth paying the money and getting the tenants verified rather than having the wrong tenants on the property. Other software do not provide any reliable data

Return on Investment
  • It is sped up our onboarding process quite a bit since background checks now happen at a pretty fast pace.
  • Integration with our ATS has also kept our workflow simple, so my team doesnt need to get training on a separate software and manage multiple logins.
