Dice TalentSearch vs. Freshteam

This platform is probably more suited for small to mid-size companies that may not have super specific roles and requirements. Organizations also that may not have a large budget for these types of programs also could be a good fit as it does offer some value, but probably falls behind in the cutting edge and super competitive landscape for platforms or organizations. It's probably less appropriate for large companies or places that are investing in current and cutting edge technology or products.

Freshteam is much less expensive than other ATSs - we've recently switched to Greenhouse which is more than ten times as expensive. It seems like a good starter ATS for small startups and the automation may be useful for teams without dedicated HR support. I suspect that many companies will grow out of it the way we did.

• Flexibility to be creative, i.e. can do both boolean searches as well as use intelligence searches.
• Posting jobs is easy to do and manage.
• Customer support is at a very high level, with a personal touch, (this is very rare and very much appreciated)!

Incentivized

• Moving interviews through each stage. It helps keep you stay organized and no one falls through the cracks.
• Communicating with people through the Freshteam email is easy and again it helps guide interviews through the process. It also reminds you to follow up with people when they will not move forward to the next stage.
• The hiring manager can log in and see the progress and notes at all times. You can also load your different interview questions in so the entire hiring committee can have everything in one place.

• The recent update is not highlighting most of the keywords which is really annoying.
• I feel the UI should be more improved.
• Sometimes we see lots of resumes with lots of manipulated details and fake experience to get the attention.
• Sometimes most of the resumes don’t have contact details and it's difficult to get in touch with candidates.

Incentivized

• Pipeline features need to be improved so that we can map out our recruitment process onto the platform.
• Can we get options for embedding a carrier's web page into our existing website, to show all of our published jobs?
• Implementing a simple UI to push our job into third party websites, or an API which helps us find most known job portals.
• We need some assessment features for various jobs, including mine, so it will also a necessary part of every recruitment application.

I'm assuming we will keep using DICE, but Indeed and LinkedIn are starting to prove their value and strength in having candidates/consultants use their services to look for new opportunities.

Its already I mentioned it is used to search the resumes of relevant profile upon the request of clients requirement. comfortable with filters to validate the profile before the resumes open. Can be able to locate the profile which the recruiter is willing to work on the requirement. Little more costly when compared to other job portals.

Not usable, not able to undo the premium features to enable any downgrade request

Dice provides ease of sourcing candidates and is the most useful in staffing industry. However, we still recommend the team to provide older version access to the user which was much easier and flexible to use. Dice posting is the best feature in Dice. The Boolean Search feature in Dice is also very useful.

what works well for Dice Open Web is that it can be used internally within a company very well. the groups of jobs with same skill sets across teams can be well displayed on the web and thus candidates can apply to multiple jobs in one go. ability to customize email templates, set alerts and notifications are really 3-5 steps processes. Candidates can also track their own progress once their process starts for filling an opening in a group.

I have used HirePro previous to Freshteam and Hirepro has some limitations. It does not give any report for analysis which is the major drawback it has. It is also not faster. It lags sometimes while using. Few major filters are missing which makes it difficult to work. Sometimes fails to upload CV in any format, we need to wait for sometime then it uploads after some time.

• Utilized a great deal of my hiring budget without producing any applicants.
• Used a large amount of my time with no payoff.
• Frustration with signing a contract and after payment did not receive any assistance with the traction of my job posts.

• Budget friendly for small and medium sized businesses. This is the most affordable ATS with all the important features required.
• This has really given a good ROI overall.
• Overall we are having a good positive impact using Freshteam is highly recommended for small and medium sized firms.
