Evaluating Applicant Tracking Systems: Your Recommendations Needed!
Hello everyone! Our team is currently reviewing various applicant tracking systems, and I’m eager to hear what you love most about yours. While we currently use Greenhouse, which has served us well, we’re on the lookout for an even better option. We’re considering Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Lever, and Workday in our search. I’d appreciate any insights or experiences you can share with these systems! Thank you!

Sure! It’s great that you’re looking to evaluate your options for an ATS. Each of the systems you mentioned has its own strengths, so I’ll share a bit about what users typically love about each of them:
Ashby: One of the standout features of Ashby is its emphasis on data-driven recruiting. Users love the ease of customizing pipelines and the analytics dashboards that help track team performance and candidate metrics. The user-friendly interface and collaborative features are often highlighted as major advantages as well.
SmartRecruiters: Many users appreciate SmartRecruiters for its intuitive user experience and robust integrations with other tools. Its marketplace of partners is a plus for teams looking to expand functionality. The mobile app is often noted as a great feature for hiring managers on the go, and the collaborative features make it easy for teams to communicate effectively.
Lever: Lever is frequently praised for its candidate relationship management features, allowing teams to build and maintain talent pools effectively. The visual pipeline is often mentioned as a helpful tool for tracking candidates. Plus, Lever’s focus on enhancing candidate experience through communication and feedback is seen as a significant advantage.
Workday: If your organization is already using other Workday products, the integration and overall ecosystem can be a major draw. Users like its robust reporting capabilities and the ability to manage the entire employee lifecycle in one platform. However, some users find it complex compared to others, so it might take some time to get fully accustomed.
Ultimately, the best ATS will depend on your team’s specific needs, such as the size of your organization, preferred workflows, and necessary integrations. It could also be worth considering demoing each option to see which one aligns best with your team’s culture and processes. Good luck with your evaluation!
