We sought out other options 18 months ago because we were dissatisfied with the limitations of iCIMS. We opted for Phenom and have been pretty happy. It is definitely a significant upgrade to iCIMS alone.

We have used BrassRing in the past and I have used ADP Recruiting in the past. Both are limited in their configuration. Mostly because they do not allow company admins to adjust what we need. Everything was built as is or not available to us for access.

It has been way more efficient for high-volume recruiting. Fewer steps to get to the same stage as the other applications.

Chose iCIMS
iCIMS Talent Cloud is the only ATS I have used. I have seen demos of some other systems in the past, and they seemed to be set up in a more archaic manner. From the demos I have seen, I do think iCIMS is the most user-friendly system. It is just a stand-alone ATS system. It …

Integrates well with other HR systems like Oracle, SAP, and Workday. The profile creation process is very generic meaning it doesn't work well with all systems. It would be nice if they had a custom setting depending on the target HR system and the ability to save partial data entered and provision to complete at a later time. Follow up emails on workflows. Customer support is great.

I am not an HR expert, however the recruitment process has recently been given to me as a part of our marketing and communications efforts. As someone who is not a seasoned professional in the hiring process, Hyrell has been a godsend. It allows me to manage the process and screen applicants very easily, provides automated templates for different stages throughout the hiring process, and offers great reporting options to gain insight into the effectiveness of our efforts. For these reasons, I would say Hyrell is particularly well-suited for a small business where employees may have to wear several hats and may not necessarily be HR professionals

Pros
  • Configuration - we are able to configure it to meet our business needs.
  • User friendly - I feel it is easy to use and we are able to roll it out with minimal training for our field
  • System availability - we have limited to almost no issues with the system being slow or not available during business hours.

  • Very accessible customer support - if I need help getting the posting the way I want it, they are there.
  • Regularly scheduled training seminars - if you want to learn more about the program and its features, sign up.
  • Responsive technical support - when I find glitches, they will work on it until they resolve it.

Cons
  • Support model - there has been a decrease in the service, we already addressed it and hopefully, it will improve
  • Configuration flexibility - there are minor things that we could easily change but for some reason, it is available only for vendor

  • Pre-built reports.
  • Candidate profiles and ability for candidates to sign up for job alerts.
  • No longer a "stream" on the main dashboard to provide an overview of everything occurring in all jobs. Now, we are required to go into each individual job for that stream. This is a change from the old system.

Likelihood to Renew
I would say that we are very likely to renew with iCIMS. They seem to continuously be improving their product based on the feedback from their clients. In addition, the thought have having to go through another implementation of this level is daunting and as long as the software continues to meet the business needs of the company and provides the appropriate level of support we will most likely stay. Costs regarding future renewals will also impact this decision and if necessary we will go to market to evaluate other options.

Usability
We just love iCIMS. Our hiring managers love iCIMS. I give it a 9 because some hiring managers do not have to use it as regularly and need reminders on what to do. It really improved our experience with our ATS overall and I wouldn't want to work in any other system in my job.

It is NOT OFTEN that one gets in marriage what one is promised in courtship. Our business relationship with Hyrell has proven to be on sound footing, as Hyrell lives up to what they state in their first meeting with a potential business partner.

Reliability and Availability
There is always ample advance notice before the software goes down for maintenance and this is usually done at off-peak hours. As for system failures - I can't think of any that have effected us in over two years od use.

Support Rating
Let me begin by saying the implementation phase was PHENOMENAL! Katie was our support manager and she was outstanding. The process was cumbersome and time-consuming, but she was outstanding and knowledgeable. That process gets a 9/10 for sure. However, between multiple account manager changes (and no notification) and being promised functionality that doesn't exist, and not hearing back when we reach out to support or open a ticket, the process has been really disappointing since implementation. We do have a new rep who has reached out to introduce himself, and we are optimistic that our experience will improve considerably after that meeting.

I have never had to wait for response. Someone always speaks directly to me, sometimes more than once, and email follow-up keeps the issue in the field of vision until there is a resolution.

Online Training
I would say I believe iCims online training is very good. It's informative, visually appealing, and simple in explaining all the different aspects of iCims. I also really like the new candidate onboarding, and all the other training curricula you have up to be able to inform or send out to the candidate. I like you can attach a URL link for videos as well so you can really customize the training. I feel that overall, I would like to see more. Perhaps, more robust options with the training, if that's something iCims is expanding on in the future.

Return on Investment
  • It makes it so much easier to keep the recruit engaged and informed about what is going on in the process.
  • I can speak to multiple people at one time which saves me time in the long run
  • I can keep a record of every time I have had a conversation with a recruit and what was said in those conversations.

  • My client has found very strong candidates much quicker than ever before. This has provided the foundations for the desired business growth.
  • The quality of the candidates coming from this platform has energized the company. Recruiting can be a dull game for many managers, but with Hyrell they see it as opportunity to easily and quickly find the right candidate to help them achieve their goals.
  • It has provided much more confidence to the company that they will be able to find the resources they need to successfully grow while they implement their business plan. It has enabled projects and plans to move forward to ready the company for its mission.
