Bullhorn ATS & CRM

Pros

Really easy to use, great for recruiting firms/agencies

Cons

Not great for internal recruiting, but thats what its marketed as

Pros

Easy to use, cost effective, customisable and bespoke to us. The file noting of candidate interactions, ability to easily merge profiles. It's a professional solution, so much better than the HRIS systems with their inbuilt ATS.
It's billed on per user, so its very cheap. The support team are excellent.

Cons

Rolling it out and customising was a challenge but was worth it. The mobile app with default customisation is pretty basic so needs work. Sometimes the viewing of CV's in the platform is clunky depending on the CV but still fine.

Reasons for Switching to Bullhorn ATS & CRM

Pros

The ease of parsing CV's and resumes saves a lot of time

Cons

Doesn't integrate as well as we would like with some other software to make mass data integration possible

Pros

The platform excels in consolidating candidate information in one database, streamlining the search and access process. Flexibility is key with Bullhorn, as it allows the tailoring of recruitment workflows and provides numerous automations for routine tasks. Furthermore, it facilitates effective coordination between recruitment personnel and hiring managers.

Cons

For those less technically inclined, Bullhorn may present a steep learning curve. The investment can be significant for startups since costs scale with user numbers. Reliance on integrations means troubleshooting can be problematic, and the storage system may require technical adjustments. Compared to its competitors, Bullhorn could offer greater adaptability and more expansive customer support.

Pros

It is relatively easy to use, process thorugh the job etc works./ The system works which is better than when I sued Vincere. The help desk does repsond quickly. You have to log. Onboarding is ok - strong processes. But like any larger company it is on you. You have to watch vieos to learn the system and people supporting changes regularly so you will find your knowledge within a year will be better than people supporting you. But as I say the help team will pass you on to experienced people if the problem exists. Overall is a good system, a larger company with the usual larger company processes.

Cons

Advertising - works but adding a job for multiple jobs can be long winded. Indexing we have had issues with, searching for candidates and not coming up, but they are on there. The biggest issue is Bullhorn partners, very expensive and not al that great.Be wary for all CRMs and Bullhorn when they repsond with yes we have a partner that can do that, for example text messaging. Creating a branded Cv should be easier. Parsing could be better. There answer is we have a partner. Some of this you expect the CRM to do, at the end of the day what are you paying for, if the answer is we have a partner.
