About Chameleon-i

Chameleon-i is a cloud-based recruiting agency solution. Modules included in the platform are automation, communication, customization, organization, searching and reporting.

Chameleon-i’s automation module includes an action system that can create and record various activity types, such as automated offer letters and rejections. This solution also has CV parsing tools, which can automatically populate candidate profiles with information from their résumés.

Chameleon-i integrates with Microsoft Exchange, so inboxes in Chameleon-i mirror inboxes in Exchange. Users can create e-marketing campaigns using this solution’s bulk email tools. Email templates can be created and data from customer databases can automatically populate placeholder fields in these templates.

In Chameleon-i’s customization module, candidate profiles can be tagged to filter for pre-selected skills and qualifications. Tags can also be used to sort clients by hiring preferences.

Chameleon-i is priced per user per month. Online, email and phone support are provided for the solution. It also offers on-premise or online training to its customers.

Ideal For Me

4

Having somewhere secure to hold my data is of course very important. But also, having somewhere I can keep my client information and have it easily accessible and searchable is ideal. I'd miss a lot if I was still having to search through excel or my windows explorer files.

Pros:
This software ticked a few boxes when I first started, Grosvenor Resourcing. 1) It was low cost, 2) It was web based 3) I was able to import my excel data into it with ease and 4) It was easy to use with what seemed a lot of functionality for the price. What I've come to learn over the years of using it is that I was barely scratching the surface in terms of what it could do, I'm probably still not. It's still great value and the features have been added to and improved over the years. There were only two that I ever felt I needed added and over the time they have been - clearly others felt they were missing too. The support is really good too. If something isn't working or I don't know how to do something then the live chat or phone support is usually very quick and helpful. I've already got one other recruiter to use this software and I would gladly recommend it again. I have a friend who works for a competitor and I've used their software in the past, which is very good, but I don't see any reason that I'd need to move away from Chameleon-i, it covers all my needs and does it well.
Cons:
Off the top of my head I'd have to say no. There were a couple of things I felt didn't work as efficiently as they could or could be added, but they've since been put in or changed for the better. Some of the usage could be a little more intuitive, but it's all there and all works well.

Reasons for choosing Chameleon-i

Following a free trial i found Chameleon - i to be, 1) It was low cost 2) It was web based 3) I was able to import my excel data into it with ease and 4) It was easy to use with what seemed a lot of functionality for the price.

Pros:
The database is easy to use, having all the Recruitment candidate/Clients history in one place is ideal, several consultants can use it at one time. Easy to Setup or full training was given. Being able to log recruitment process with candidates, input their pros/cons. Using/creating templates for easy using e-mails for clients and candidates. Ideal for sales calls logs and alerts. Keeping paperwork to a minimum in Recruitment. Online support when you have a problem. I have used a lot of Recruitment databases and this is the complete package and a realistic cost and you could buy a software package but Chameleoni you get online help and the software is always being upgraded.
Cons:
To be honest I have been using the software package for 7 years and when I was starting my Company I knew what I was looking for with a software package for Recruitment and the only thing I could say is if it was free that would be good!

Capable but tired.

On its launch, it was aligned to other products in the market place. With an adventurous tech team they were well placed to grow the brand in the market place. However, with others now using ‘slick’ simple ways to display data, move data, use market data, integrations with job boards, Linkedin etc. as well as developing and integrating AI capability, it is becoming an antique with far superior products available.

Pros:
The product has a basic functionality that would be best suited to a ‘one man band’ operation. Once installed, it operates in a basic, capable way. It can be set-up relatively quickly and has super efficient, best in class, customer support which is UK based.
Cons:
It has failed to keep pace with competitors and the technical capabilities of software. For instance, simple functions such as a drag and drop function are missing (apart from CV parsing). Its labour intensive, comparatively speaking, for a tech based product.

Pros:
Cloud based so we could lose the expensive MS-SQL servers we had and all their licenses. Love the Word Template linking feature. We use it every moment of the day for different things. The candidate shortlisting is spot one. The consultants enjoy the ease of use. New consultants are trained quickly. Very adaptable. The support is great and the developers listen to common sense (and use). Clear and simple work flow.
Cons:
Not very flexible for contract recruitment. It works but it works its way and our clients don't! They listened to our issues and have scheduled in time for the changes (which is very like them) but it's a definite weak area of the product.

Excellent Recruitment Software

5

Great piece of software. As recruitment business owner I investigated several options when setting up my business and Chameleon-I was the only one that felt like it met my needs. It has all the functions you would expect from a Rec CRM system and is priced very competitively. Superb technical support and lots of nice extra functions have been added since I initially signed up.

Pros:
Clearly built and designed by people with experience in the industry, knowing what is important to recruitment business owners and consultants to simplify their CRM system without skimping on practicality.
Cons:
The UI could do with a slight face lift in my opinion to make it look more modern but apart from that I can't think of many cons.

Pros:
having worked in recruitment for a number of years across 3 different businesses using 3 different CRMs Chameleon-I is easily the best Database Software. Its the most intuitive for ease of use and training team-members on. General functionality and flexibility to tailor to exact requirements we need has been great with a few bespoke reports and updates specific to our use and best practice have been supported and developed. The support - especially has been outstanding and they take ownership to ameliorate the occasional issue and bring to successful conclusion. As a team they seem proactive, experts and ahead of the rest of their competition.
Cons:
CMS aspect is a little clunky to get your hear around initially - few trial and errors when tailoring templates - again this is bespoke though and the general Templates for communications (client and candidate) are more than adequate

it is easy to use - easy layout and columns featured are imporant. Baskets and searches are easy to learn and quick help from CS team is any questions. Good online helping too, so new users can learn by reading information provided. Helpdesk are quick to keep in touch for any issues reported and feedback regularly on any issues reported.
Cons:
When asking the database to sort in certain ways, it reverts back to "standard" layout and you have to sort records again in the feature you want ( i.e. Registered date / CVs arrived Date - etc )
