[Overview](https://www.softwareadvice.com/recruitment-marketing-platform/testgorilla-profile/) Reviews [Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/recruitment-marketing-platform/testgorilla-profile/alternatives/) # TestGorilla User Reviews ## Reviews summary - Overall rating: 4.1/5 - Total reviews: 267 ### Secondary ratings - Ease of use: 4.4/5 - Customer support: 3.9/5 - Value for money: 3.8/5 - Functionality: 4.0/5 ### Rating distribution - 5 stars: 135 reviews (51%) - 4 stars: 78 reviews (29%) - 3 stars: 25 reviews (9%) - 2 stars: 12 reviews (4%) - 1 star: 17 reviews (6%) ### Most mentioned pros - We engaged with TestGorilla hoping for a full trial of both personality and technical assessments as an alternative to Predictive Index. Although their UI looked great and responses were fast, we never received trial access to the complete suite. - i love the ability to share info with other physicians and not have to worry about taking it to them - We were able to screen several programmer applicants and it revealed those who had the potential to be great developers vs. those which were lacklustre. ### Most mentioned cons - I was charged for an annual subscription I will never use. When I contacted customer support to politely explain my mistake, I was attended to by anonymous representatives who did not follow up on my case and did nothing to help me. - After contacting them within 1-2 hours to say that we didn’t wish to use the product, we requested a refund for the subscription fee. - Better than expected, but the lack of a short term month to month subscription is a problem for us. ## TestGorilla customer reviews Showing reviews 1-25 of 267 (page 1). ### best skills based testing platform - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Andrey L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for free trial - Reviewed: March 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Development of outsourcing team. Preparations for launch of SaaS product company. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros TestGorilla has a vide variety of tests and based on scientifical approach combined with strong practical expertise of TG team. TG reduces your time for screening and preliminary interviewing of employees. Once the test passed you can go to screening of portfolio [technical staff] or references list [management] not using time for more interviews of more you actually need to judge the choice to hire. #### Cons Some tests, especially for soft skills have a lot of questions - it splits focus and some can be not clear answered. Technical - needed Prospective June level for rising stars to be choosen cause some programming level tests are hard to pass, it makes reliability but does not help to employer to save costs. There is lack of integration with platforms for remote hire of contractors: UpWork, Glassdoor, Toptal. I wish TestGorilla will cooperate with large institution it make it more popular. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla Very professional and open minded team of TestGorilla. Platform is really stable and is more creative space less testing virtual place. TG has vide variety of tasks and domains. #### Vendor response Hi Andrey! Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. We are happy to hear you have had a positive experience with our team and with the variety of tests in our library. We are constantly striving for improvement and excellence, and we will happily take your feedback onboard for that. Welcome to the TG community! Replied June 2023 --- ### No-brainer - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Marc R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I am happy with my choice, I think TG covers my specific needs and I won´t be searching for another platform. Also, they have great support! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Very user friendly, super easy to find the correct assessments. Plus, they offer templates and automated responses. #### Cons I wanted to create an assessment with 5 different test, but this was not possible, as 4 is the maximum per assessment. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla Pricing was very similar to Testlify, however, I liked much better TG´s branding and feel. --- ### Strong Assessment Platform, But more customization would help!! - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Fernando G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Easy to create and customize assessment and wide variety of skills and test options and useful reporting and assessment results. #### Cons Pricing can be high for larger hiring volumes and limited customization for certain testing needs. Base on candidate rate said they have found lengthy assessments discouraging. --- ### sharing gorilla - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: marleen c. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: June 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. my overall experience has been fantasic i havent has an issue and the fact of how easy it is to use and people love it #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros i love the ability to share info with other physicians and not have to worry about taking it to them #### Cons i just started it out but no issues at all it was wonderful sharing everything with everyone no problems yet --- ### Eases the complicated procedure of skills verification - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: DONIA L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Hardware - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. With objective and fair skill-testing, TestGorilla simplifies the process of skill-testing, but saving options and the process of playing back should be improved. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros TestGorilla offers a practical and suitable method to measure the working skills, not leaving impressions. The fairness of evaluation is appreciated on the platform and it has always helped me spot good candidates. #### Cons The playback pace settings were also slightly awkward in reviewing the responses of several candidates. --- ### Limited Trial Access Despite Quick Sales Rep feedback - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Manshuk K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: May 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We engaged with TestGorilla hoping for a full trial of both personality and technical assessments as an alternative to Predictive Index. Although their UI looked great and responses were fast, we never received trial access to the complete suite. That limited visibility into core features left us feeling undervalued and unable to properly evaluate the product. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros TestGorilla has a modern, intuitive interface that’s easy to navigate. Their pricing is competitive, and their support team was quick to respond to emails. #### Cons The free trial is very limited—we never got full access to the personality or technical assessments we needed. The core tools felt too basic, and despite frequent emails, the sales rep couldn’t unlock the features we requested. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla It was a trial. We were testing user experience, collaboration tools, gathered feedback from managers and HRs. #### Reasons for switching to TestGorilla We’d recently tightened our HR tools budget and needed a more cost-effective solution than what we were paying with Predictive Index. TestGorilla’s lower per-user and pay-as-you-go pricing initially looked like a better fit for our lean hiring budget—so we decided to switch to keep costs in line without a long-term commitment. #### Vendor response Hi Manshuk, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for giving TestGorilla a try. We're glad to hear that you found our interface intuitive and appreciated the responsiveness of our support team. That said, we're truly sorry to hear that your trial experience didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how important it is to fully explore key features like personality and technical assessments, especially when evaluating alternatives. Your feedback highlights a gap in how we support trial users, and we take that seriously. We'd appreciate it if you could provide us with more information so that we can investigate further. Thanks again for your honest input. – The TestGorilla Team Replied May 2025 --- ### Good but subscription model is ver misleading - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Ngan D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Dissapointing. We should have used other tools. Or we should have designed our test in house. We are a start up with less than 20 people. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The tool worked, the tests are good and features are well developed. Easy to use. Good cheating detection. Good process, good performance of the app. #### Cons As a team of <20 people, We're shocked when we completed 1 hire and asked for cancellation. The subscription model was misleading — we thought it was monthly, but only afterward learned it was a locked 12-month contract. We finished our hire and emailed support almost 20 times begging for cancellation or a fair solution, but were only offered a rigid 3-month pause. Now we’re stuck paying for a service we don’t use. For a platform calling itself startup-friendly, this feels deeply misaligned. Clearer communication and flexible options are badly needed. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla Because someone we trusted used testgorilla for job application #### Reasons for switching to TestGorilla We want to try new tool and someone suggested to try TestGorilla --- ### Not customer centric and inflexible - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Arsen I. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: November 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Functionality that they offer is quite available and needed, and it seems like they have everything I need. #### Cons It seems like they have everything I need, but they only offer contracts that are quite pricey. If you're hiring your first employee, and you actually don't need this service for a year, customer support is quite disappointed too. It takes them so long to answer, and they just don't get you. One more thing: when I spoke to their salesperson during the demo call, he didn't even know about all options they offer. For example, in my case, he didn't know that they offer some special terms to VC-based startups. --- ### I would test before committing - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Beth B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: May 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered It was okay, we asked our applicants for feedback and they thought it was exhausting and overwhelming. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The availability of tests and ability to personalize tests as needed for our organization. It is nice to monitor tests from dashboard. #### Cons That you had to commit to an annual agreement, could not delete only archive applicants that you gave tests to (if using TEST applicants - still had to see them on dashboard). #### Vendor response Hi Beth, Thanks for your feedback. We're glad the test variety and customization worked well for your team. We understand the concerns about the annual commitment and will share that feedback with the team. We also appreciate your note on candidate experience. It's a top priority for us, and we're continuously looking for ways to make assessments more engaging and less overwhelming. Thanks again for helping us improve. – The TestGorilla Team Replied May 2025 --- ### Good Software that helps making hiring decisions easier. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Iván P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. All in all, I'm satisfied with the platform and services provided. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Variety of tests: from soft skill testing to more technical/hard skills. #### Cons The pricing is a bit high for the amount of tests we send per year. Basically, it's difficult for us to find a plan that fits our needs. --- ### Great tool - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Matteo B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I think that test gorilla is definitely the top notch system for screening candidates #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The possibility to integrate custom questions and pre made ones, I also liked the anti cheating system and the dashboard #### Cons The one year subscription only did not allow us to buy the subscription at this time, we would have definitely move forward if the monthly subscription was available --- ### Test Gorilla Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Favour U. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The interface was friendly, i easily was able to navigate through out my testing process, and the question sections breaks were very important as it helped not only for room to breath but majorly as a saving point incase there is disruption with the internet or power #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The very important aspect of offering multiple test based assessment, that goes just beyond technical skills and and soft skillss #### Cons it cant be used for some kind of technical skill based assessment like coding --- ### A Reliable Pre-Employment Assessment Platform - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Yeswanth A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Staffing and Recruiting - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for free trial - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My overall experience with TestGorilla has been positive, especially for streamlining pre-employment assessments.However, customization limitations and occasional integration challenges can be improved. Overall, it's a great tool for data-driven hiring. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros TestGorilla offers a user-friendly interface, a wide range of pre-employment assessments, and seamless integration with ATS platforms. Its AI-driven insights, customizable tests, and automated candidate ranking streamline hiring, making it efficient, data-driven, and bias-free for recruiters and hiring managers. #### Cons Some test questions cannot be modified, restricting flexibility Automated scoring may not always reflect real-world skills --- ### Best Application - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Sameer I. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Banking - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros User-friendly, efficient, and great for hiring #### Cons No Cons. --- ### A good testing platform with hidden pricing strategy that increases your cost 3X - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Sky B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: December 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Good with testing Bad with pricing #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Good set of questions. Though not used would like to develop set of questions for new subject areas. #### Cons 1. My biggest problem is to pay $150 every two months due to invalidating a assessment. As informed by your support: "The time limit on assessments is to protect the reliability and integrity of the tests, as having them available for extended periods of time increases the risk of candidates finding ways to practice the tests, or sharing the answers with each other, or posting the questions on the internet. These situations would not only force us to take those questions off our platform but also decrease the validity and reliability of the results of your candidates." This logic does not make sense since one can and will clone an assessment every two months to create a new one to continue the tests and pay $150 per clone. By cloning the assessment uses exactly the same questions. How does that take care of the reasoning above? 2. Even worse is every time you want correct a typo you have to pay $150 since the only way you can do by cloning a test rather than editing one. 3. The problem is the buyer has no idea about these additional cost when they are buying the service. The service fee is shown as $300 but actually it is $300 + 5 x $150 = $1050 which is more than 3 times the advertised price. #### Vendor response Hi Sky! Thanks for your feedback. Just to let you know, when you clone an assessment the question sets in each test refresh and a totally new set of questions, from the dedicated question bank for that test, appears in the test! That way we can help you to minimize the chance of a candidate finding the questions online and cheating their way to a job at your company :) We know that the cost of a mis-hire like this can be $20,000++, so in reality we believe that a charge of $150 per additional assessment to minimize the chances of this occurring, is worth it...please reach out to us at help@testgorilla.com to clarify any other queries you might have Replied December 2021 --- ### Not a fan of Test Gorilla battery of tests - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Gerard J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Executive Office - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: October 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I don't like the series of assessment tools. Candidates are not allowed adequate preparation time like in other test batteries such as shl. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros I did not like this product. No positives for me. I think the time allocations per assessment battery are also questionable. #### Cons There are no real practice tests. The verbal reasoning test passage is lengthy and so are the corresponding answers for selection. --- ### Bait and Switch - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Jake G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Insurance - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered It was my go to system, until I renewed, now I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy. So brutal with customer care and they take take take... stay clear. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros They changed their billing options to remove features that are critical at the price you are paying and then when the system renews and now you don't want to use the system because it doesn't do what you want it to do they magically can't reverse the charges. They are criminal. Their customer service team is brutal too. They only communicate via email and ad zero value. Don't be fooled. #### Cons They let you start with features you get used to using at a rate that is manageable. Then they change their plans so the features you want to use you have to pay 10 times more for the following year. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla I didn't I switch away from TestGorilla - it's terrible. #### Reasons for switching to TestGorilla Because TestGorilla baited me in with a good price and switched it. #### Vendor response Hi Jake, sorry to hear that you have had a negative experience with our team and with our platform. We communicated to all customers in June 2022 about the changes to the PAYG plan that would take effect on renewal. This gave our customers ample time to familiarise themselves with any changes that would impact on their assessments - your plan was renewed in January. Worth bearing in mind that we also added features to the PAYG plan - additional custom questions, intro video etc. If you have further feedback or would like to reactivate your paid account at any stage, please don't hesitate to contact us Replied February 2023 --- ### Buyer Beware - Not what I expected - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Judd D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Horrible and I am very disappointed in the way they treated us as a customer. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros I honestly have no pros I can say about the product. #### Cons The pricing model is not easy to understand. The free trial is barely a trial. You cannot see the questions to know if it is a good test. Support is dismal and takes days to get back to you. We barely used the product and had our first candidate have difficulty taking the test. The beware part, they state nothing in their terms as far as a refund which they would not grant the refund even though we explained the difficulty of all of the above. You pay yearly, so if you do not like it, you are crap out of luck. #### Vendor response Hi Judd, I understand that our team has resolved the issue you experienced to your satisfaction. However, just to alert you to some details on our platform that you may have missed- you are indeed able to see the questions presented in each test, by simply inviting yourself to take the assessment as an internal user. Our free plan is designed so that our customers can try all of the premium features on the platform for free, before signing up to a paid plan. We encourage our users to explore the platform using the free version first, and to share assessments with other team members, so that you have full understanding of the features and benefits of the paid content before you decide to subscribe. We wish you the best with your hiring process! Replied May 2022 --- ### Good product for especialized jobs - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Sonia L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Telecommunications - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I liked the tool but didn´t fit my recruiting market. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The library test area great for a specific area such as Technologies, Programming, and Software development. #### Cons The idea of buying the tool was to have preset library tests such as evaluation of customer service, personality and critical thinking, but the orientation was just for certain fields. It's a very expensive tool to create quizzes or tests, with other tools in the market such as Microsoft Forms. The value of the tool is the analytics and reports. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla The analytics and reports --- ### Easy to configure, but quality of the coding tests is not great - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Daniel O. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We use TG to assess developers after we've had a first interview with them. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros It's easy to create your own test suite, and selecting predefined tests helps with getting started quickly. I also like the as-they-type code view - it helps to get an idea of how the developer constructs a solution - and I appreciate the automated screenshots (to my surprise all the candidates accepted video captures). I also like the logical thinking tests, although there's not really a way to see the users responses (this goes for all the questions). #### Cons I found some of the tests to be lacking in quality, sometimes resulting in frustration from the developer, or unhelpful results. For example: * the advanced SQL test is not a realistic scenario, and only has 2 outcomes: success or failure. It makes it hard to get an idea of the developers grasp of the subject, because it's just 1 giant assignment. If you get 90% right, you score 0 points. * the Laravel test does not really test the developers ability to use the framework in real life situations, but rather tests for static knowledge. * I found the PHP tests to be too simple and sometimes just poorly constructed (for example the prefilled function and parameter names are not great) I also created a custom PHP test, but the outcome verification has a bug, which will sometimes accept wrong answers (error status === true). I would have liked to see the users responses to multiple choice questions. Because of the randomness in the questionnaires, you don't know which questions they got. It would be helpful to see if maybe a user got dealt a couple of poor questions (and there are a few). It's a shame that (as a paying customer) this information is not revealed. #### Reasons for choosing TestGorilla Pricing and range of offered tests --- ### Useful but needs improvement - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ashlee R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Consumer Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used other for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The ability to customize tests with self selection from the array provided helps the test be more specific to what we need verification of before hiring for a high demand position. #### Cons The test options are plentiful but some are confusing, the inability to do more than see 2-3 questions preview makes it hard to know if the test truly matches what you need without taking the test yourself (which should be Free to allow admin to do so and verify the test matches company needs). The timed feature on self made test questions should be more flexible, 2 minutes is unfortunately not enough time for longer test questions with lots of detailed options for slow readers. The inability to change a test after its been sent to an applicant means multiple versions of the same test for the same position now exist and theres no way to "label" it to know which version has which testers, forcing me to open each option and look through the test names to find who im looking for. More tests that are less corporate office and a few more options that match small business needs (such as time management questions which fit more corp settings than small 3 man office). --- ### Streamlined the Screening Process - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jocelyn P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Telecommunications - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. It has definitely saved us time and the calibre of interviewees means are conversion form interview to hire has improved drastically. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Being able to direct our candidates to a branded assessment centre, which then takes a lot of the leg work out of CV screening, giving us the ability to quickly select the best candidates for the role. Having the options to create different assessments for different roles is great. #### Cons Unfortunately it does not link in to out recruitment software. #### Vendor response Hi Jocelyn, thanks a lot for taking the time to leave us your feedback on the platform. Great to hear that we helped you with optimising your hiring process, and that you appreciate the flexibility of the platform. Regarding your recruitment software, we are currently integrated with 10 different platforms, and there are more on the roadmpa for Q4. Can you share the name of your specific software? I can take a look and see if it is on the current roadmap :) Replied September 2022 --- ### TestGorilla is a good an efficient tool for technical assessment of candidate skills - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Andrius P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Sports - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, i think it's a great way to manage technical assessments #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Easy to use and manage the candidate pipelines. Once the test is setup, it's very easy to send it to the candidates, track, and evaluate. #### Cons It's difficult to setup the test that's applicable to a developers' day-to-day. I receive complaints from some candidates that the interface is difficult to use, some OS compatibility issues and code editor doesn't always work as expected. --- ### Test Gorilla Review - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Conrad E. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very good - gives us more confidence in our new hires - new hires we have brought on are performing very well. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Ease of downloading to excel and PDF files. #### Cons Testing levels are subjective - Intermediate level people end up doing senior level coding reviews for example. Testing levels should mimic the market. for example Python Coding challenges should have the titles of "Junior" "Intermediate" or "Senior".

Helped reduce the amount of time spent doing one-on-one interviews with numerous candidates, helped us narrow down the candidates we really wanted to spend time with in order to make a better informed decision regarding hiring. #### Cons No real cons, other than a couple of candidates did not receive invitation emails. There is no way for us to know whether these statements were true and we did end up spending time chasing candidates that had not responded. Would be good to have an option for candidates to accept or reject participation in assessment so that we did not have to chase unnecessarily if candidate had decided to opt-out. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/recruitment-marketing-platform/testgorilla-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- TestGorilla Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
