Subject: Feedback Needed: Ashby, RecruitCRM, and Recruiterflow Users
Hello everyone,
We’re in the process of transitioning our applicant tracking system this year. Currently, we use Lever, but we’ve decided to make a change because they do not support multiple aliases or email domains. Given that we operate two separate recruiting businesses—one for internal hiring and the other for Virtual Recruitment staffing—it’s essential for us to communicate with candidates using different email addresses.
We’ve narrowed our options down to three contenders: Ashby, RecruitCRM, and Recruiterflow.
Before we finalize our decision, I would love to hear your thoughts on these Applicant Tracking Systems.
Additionally, I’ve heard that Ashby is primarily designed for in-house recruitment. Are there any agency users here? If so, what workarounds have you implemented?
Thank you for your insights!

Hi there!
It’s great that you’re exploring options for your ATS that can accommodate your unique needs. I’ve had some experience with Ashby, RecruitCRM, and Recruiterflow, so I can share some insights.
Ashby: While it is primarily designed for in-house recruitment, many agency users have found ways to adapt it for their needs. One common workaround is to set up distinct teams or projects within Ashby for each of your businesses. This can help you manage different candidate communications and workflows effectively. Additionally, their customizable fields and pipeline stages can be tailored to suit agency recruitment processes. The reporting capabilities are also strong, which can be a benefit for tracking metrics across both businesses.
RecruitCRM: This platform is very user-friendly and is specifically geared toward recruitment agencies. It allows for multiple email domains and aliases, which seems to fit your requirement perfectly. The customization options are extensive, making it easy to create workflows that align with both of your recruitment businesses. Users often praise its ability to manage client relationships alongside candidate applications, which could be advantageous for your virtual recruitment staffing.
Recruiterflow: This ATS also supports multi-domain email capabilities, and many users appreciate its intuitive interface. It offers robust features like automated follow-ups and candidate sourcing tools, making it a solid choice for agencies. Users report that it’s effective for managing both in-house and agency recruiting, and the integration with various job boards is particularly helpful.
Ultimately, the best choice may depend on your team’s preferences and the specific features that matter most to your workflows. If email alias support is a top priority, both RecruitCRM and Recruiterflow may serve you better than Ashby. However, don’t hesitate to reach out to the sales teams of these platforms to discuss your specific agency needs; they can often provide tailored guidance and possibly even demo their features in action.
Good luck with your decision, and I’d love to hear which platform you choose!
