Bullhorn vs Workable

Bullhorn ATS and CRM boasts an overall satisfied customer base. The graphical, mobile-optimized system is typically revered as user-friendly and improves users’ recruiting processes. However, this may not be the right system for you if you’re looking for an all-in-one recruiting platform, as integrations are almost always necessary - and they come with an additional cost. There are also complaints relating to the mass email feature as well as general issues with the stability and usability of the system.

Workable is a recruiting solution that provides a range of hiring tools. Users who commented on the platform said it was efficient and saved time and effort with its automated processes. Reviewers liked the UI and said it was easy to learn and adopt and had overwhelmingly positive experiences with the prompt and knowledgeable customer service. They felt the reporting worked well and delivered the necessary data to plan strategically. Above all, they were impressed with the recruiting functionality and especially liked the ATS, one-click job posting and talent acquisition and sourcing features. Hiring managers especially found it beneficial. In terms of issues and opportunities for growth, users consistently had problems attaching and grouping additional files with the candidate profile. They state it was difficult to centralize documents other than resumes such as certifications, samples, letters of recommendation and more. Some also felt that the overall customization and branding was somewhat limited. Last, workers reported difficulty getting everyone’s feed together in group settings on the platform. Workable may be a good fit for medium-sized organizations, especially those with hiring managers, who need to automate the recruiting process. Larger companies may find it too limiting. It may also be a good fit for small companies with the necessary budget; many found it quite affordable.
