Customer Reviews

Favorable reviews
Lever
As an experienced Recruiter, I've used Lever, Greenhouse, and JazzHR, and Lever is by far my favorite. Lever can be implemented quickly and easily, and is a great price for the value.
Lever is a fantastic ATS for growing companies looking for a more robust system. The add-on of Nurture helps support talent acquisition, which is a differentiator in the ATS market.
Ease of use, great customer support and the features are robust for collaboration. Beats most competitors by a mile is the experience and user interface.
Greenhouse
Overall, I think that Greenhouse is a really great choice for an ATS if you can afford it. It's a solid product with great customer support.
Greenhouse is the best way to collaborate on group interviews. I love how you can submit your feedback directly after the interview for the rest of the team to see.
Greenhouse is a fantastic tool to keep all our applicants straight. It's super easy to use and allows HR to guide the process of review from early applicant entry all the way through to interview and final evaluation.
MyNextHire
The product is extremely easy and intuitive to use. The company seems to have taken a lot of effort in making it user friendly. They always listen to the feedback, and upgrades come pretty fast. Overall a great, usable tool with value for money.
MyNextHire is highly configurable recruitment software. Recruiters were able to grasp the usage very easily. The best part was that our existing recruitment process workflow was available in the software already and the customizations were very less. Thus, we were able to implement the software in a very quick time. It is so refreshing to see recruiters spending more time on sourcing than doing scanning , xeroxing, creating reports from their Excels! The product enhancements being implemented are fantastic and gives great pleasure that they listen to our wish list.
Overall experience has been great so far. Team has been very supportive. Ease of work. Good Analytics. Dashboard is the best. Offer Tracker is a single click view for the health of the offers.
