Vincere vs. ZipRecruiter

The training videos are a great tool for someone new to the system, and lines up really well with the ease of use that the system demonstrates overall - my team all watched these over the course of a week and became fairly proficient in using the system before we had it rolled out. Previously systems i have used haven't allowed for the extraction of financials in enough detail from the system. Vincere allows us to break our data down by contingent and retained, then by stage in order to truly see our pipeline in detail.

ZipRecruiter is great for regular, full-time positions, especially the higher paying salaried positions. I would not recommend ZipRecruiter for the highest turnover positions that are mostly part time because of the price to post on ZipRecruiter. Let me mention, I am only posting hospitality facility positions

• Candidate search functions are brilliant
• Has multiple integrations
• Is constantly coming up with innovative solutions
• Being independent of major New Zealand job boards means increased security of information. It is more difficult for the duopoly job boards here to assess where our candidate applications originates from. This is relevant given the involvement one prominent job board has with a competing ATS system.

• ZipRecruiter is very easy to use, even for those who are not tech-savvy.
• The platform offers seamless options to mass-message out all candidates who have applied. This eliminates the time-consuming efforts to have to message out to each candidate.
• ZipRecruiter parses and connects well with our ATS platform, which makes it easy to track information as well and manage candidate profiles.

• I would like to see the the recruitment process automated (e.g., when you move a candidate through the process that their status updates automatically and you don't need to do it manually yourself). When a candidate is going for an interview, the status at the top of their profile should automatically update. Then when they go for their first Interview, the status should automatically update and so on. Now you need to manually go and update all this, which is time consuming and can sometimes be forgotten.
• The copy and paste function should be updated so that it can be used on all screens no mater where in the system you are, as not everyone knows how to do CRV files, etc. Copy/paste saves time for someone like me.

• Better electronic screening of applicants prior to allowing them to apply for a job (i.e. when licenses are required)
• When cancelling they require that you call them on the phone (you can't cancel online)
• I'd prefer that subscriptions were more targeted to my hiring needs

We just implemented Vincere and the chance of changing to a different soon is limited

ZipRecruiter by far is the most comprehensive recruitment platform I have used. I have tried many other recruitment platforms and none were as comprehensive as ZipRecruiter. The hands-on assistance by the ZR staff was to notch. When we have an urgent need or just want to keep interest in employment at our campus, we turn to ZipRecruiter.

Great candidate management. A UI that could do with further visual development. Easy to use functions and great support from the Vincere team. Slightly clunky process for making a placement. Great candidate pics and star ratings. Overall easy of use that drives good adoption from my team

ZipRecruiter is very user-friendly and is extremely reliable when searching for new talent. There are numerous features to help you when you have questions about a posting or your profile. The filtering process is awesome and you have so many ways to find the right talent with the screening questions provided by ZipRecruiter.

pages load fine ... it's not easy to know where to go -- you have to know to click on this or that because it's not intuitive.

Our Implementation Consultant Alan is super helpful 10/10 recommend!! If I have a question he gets in contact super fast. If he does not have an answer right away he talks to other departments and gets back in thouch within 48 hours. He was definitely the most helpful person out of everyone we talked to

Have not had to utilize support recently, but in past instances they have reached out within 12 hours to help rectify any problems or answer any questions about features and functionality. The only issue I ever had with them was trying to clarify, when they previously advertised that they posted on 200+ job boards, if that meant that your job would for sure be posted on each job board. Turns out, by the way, that they only guarantee distribution, not posting

onboarding process was very easy.

I find vincere much easier to use, and I've found the support team infinitely faster and more knowledgable. On my previous platform I had a business restructure, and in changing my arrangement with the ATS provider, I had multiple, massive issues. I've not had any issues with Vincere thus far

ZipRecruiter is inferior when it comes to comparing it to Indeed. I use both because I want more platforms to advertise my job. However, I find myself obtaining more applicants from Indeed over ZipRecruiter. I don't count ZipRecruiter out, though, because every once in a while, you can find a gem in a haystack.

because they did not provide qualified candidates so they cannot be relied upon to do what they say they do

• Lots of time wasted trying to get support.
• Wasted time migrating data to and from the product.
• Slow refresh speeds with a simple candidate lookup taking so long we resort to using the mobile application.
• The terrible CV formatting capabilities require us to use 3rd party products.
• Lack of automation makes it a very time consuming product to manage work flows on.
• Slowed down the function of the office considerably when you look at the Bugs, the lack of support, the poor work flow for the CRM element.
• Misleading analytics resulted in the team simply not trusting the reporting which effected performance.
• Being tied to a product that wasn't fit for purpose has been hugely frustrating.

• The ROI we have gotten from using ZipRecruiter is huge, we use it for hiring sales people, and our sales are increased as a direct result of being able to hire great sales people through ZipRecruiter
• I like that we have everything we need for our hiring process all in one place. ZipRecruiter does a great job of offering us all of the tools we need on it's platform, which keeps us well organized.
• Because of ZipRecruiter, we have hired quality sales people, and it has directly lowered our turn-over rate with our employees.
