Overall, I had a positive experience with Entelo. We've had many hires through the platform and as I mentioned, I like the tracking mechanisms. In this day and age of recruiting, you want to be able to reach a candidate through email as everyone checks their emails multiple times a day. Entelo's algorithm finds email addresses for most US candidates and so outreach is made easier.

I absolutely love Entelo. The best feature of this software is the fact that it can uncover email addresses for most candidates. Once you have an email address, you can directly customize an email in the program and send it out at specific times. Once a potential candidate receives the email, you will be notified that they opened it or that they clicked on a link in the email. I really like the tracking mechanism as it makes a recruiter feel that your emails are being read.

I did not like entelo's envoy feature. I tested out some roles, and unfortunately, I did not receive the best profiles that match the position. ( In Envoy, you post a position, and the algorithm finds you the best matches and emails the candidates automatically with the template that you create.) This feature unfortunately did not work for one of our hardest and heavily recruited positions. Another con is that email addresses are not easily obtained for European candidates. This is mainly due to Europe's privacy laws.

We are finding and engaging with engineers and biotech professionals.

I've been introduced to Entelo at my previous job and convinced my director to get me a license. I've hired dozens of niche technical professionals in a tight competitive market using Entelo.

At the time they wouldn't let me send more than one or two followup emails in a campaign. Also, no phone numbers.

Entelo sold this as a linkedin recruiter replacement, when in actuality it must be used WITH linkedin recruiter. Overall the investment is not worth it. In 6 months, my team of 6 recruiters went from sourcing niche candidates monthly to not having a single one be hired in 6 months of entelo use. This is an expensive platform and the results were not there. The customer success department is OK, although in our industry with very niche requirements they were not able to enable us to make the platform worth the investment. If you are in a niche industry, I would be very wary of using this platform.

The automated nurture emails were a nice touch, and the recommendation engine for this was interesting.

The ability to search for talent is not well developed. We had to constantly have our search words be "sent to the data science team" for them to input them into the system. The search interface is laggy. The data freshness is not great. Often candidates had already changed roles and that wasn't reflected on the platform.

-Creates single profile of a candidate from multiple online sources -Large database of personal email addresses -Is able to find 70-80% of email addresses for candidates where they don't have an email address -One click integration with my ATS(Lever) which makes the -Reporting on email campaigns that provide open rate, CTR, and replied by template -Over 300 million candidate profiles -Great customer service -Seem to have a focus on enhancing the product as I have seen many new feature releases and I have been on the platform for 9-10 months.

-I only have one seat and it is expensive being about the same price as a LinkedIn Recruiter seat -Doesn't always allow you to add a new candidate profile that you found outside of the platform. You can put in the request with a link but it doesn't always work -You always need to click through to one of the candidates social profiles to ensure the data is correct

Great tool to use

Easy to use Pools candidates that linkedin wouldn't surface Can search by diversity, huge benefit! Allows you to reach candidates via email vs. LinkedIn

Emails are not always up to date Not always pulled accurately from LinkedIn so information can be old and outdated
