### Most mentioned pros

- The platform assists us in identifying technical skills, evaluating competencies and performance, generating staff performance reports, and other tasks.
- Overall, ClearCo has been great to work with over the course of a few years, with the customer support we had for implementation and integration to join forces with Paylocity a key factor for why we continued to use it.
- The platform also has plenty of integrations with other applications, including Slack and Microsoft Teams, so our team can conveniently access important information.

### Most mentioned cons

- Sometimes the integration we have between ClearCompany and our HRIS misbehaves, and we have to call it in for support. Because these are two different organizations, sometimes there is a little tail chasing, where one company says the problem resides with the other, and we get advised to troubleshoot with the other party.
- My "Stuff" tab has been blank the entire time I used Clear Company and it appears to be broken.
- Therefore I currently can not see the actual value of our shares.

#### Pros

I really liked the ease of navigation in using the ClearCo Dashboard, helped all of us that had access in our Recruiting and HR team to at a glance see candiate process across all posted roles. It was nice to have workflows and notes to track candidates through the interview process for quick updates to leadership team. The integration and value for connecting with our HR System in Paylocity was crucial for us to have.

#### Cons

I wish it had onboarding integrations with Paylocity, this would increase process automation for us to a necessary level with our company's size and volume of onboarding.

#### Reasons for choosing ClearCo

Was more cost beneficial to go with ClearCo and had better developed dashboards and ATS then Paylocity offered at the time.

#### Reasons for switching to ClearCo

ClearCo provided a much better ATS system and dashboard navigation for ease of use to our recruiting team. We loved the candidate process and job postings, which really helped us improve our workflows not only internally but also more timely with candidates.

### Most intuitive and functional applicant tracking software yet!

I have used other applicant tracking software solutions before but they were often cumbersome to use or never had quite the right functionality that I wanted. I love ClearCompany so much because it truly has everything I need in an easy to use system. AND just when I think it couldn't be better they come up with new enhancements! I have, and will continue to recommend ClearCompany ATS to anyone who has recruiting responsibilities, especially if they are a government contractor!

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Very intuitive and user friendly to use. Various ways to access information and sort information to see what you need. The Clear Company team is extremely responsive to providing help but also listening to suggestions for future improvements. Their support is top notch - from online training videos, to online chat and a customer success manager who not only cares but follows up (and not like other companies who will reach out when they want to sell me a new feature). I also attended their 2017 Talent Conference in Boston, which was really a great learning opportunity as well as to connect with my

#### Cons

I would not say there are any cons, but we live in a time where instant gratification has become the norm and expectation. There have been times when I have waited 30 - 60 min for a response to my online chat request. There are new reports I would like to have, but I know their reporting function just went under an overhaul and I am working on moving to the new platform soon, so I am excited to see what the new reporting capabilities are. The only other improvement I could suggest right now is to make this highly capable software to be better suited for a global company. We have business in India and ClearCompany has helped us to utilize their system for our recruiter in India, but there is still opportunity to improve the system for a company doing business overseas.

### Better ATS/Onboarding Options

- Overall rating: 3/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness
- Company size: 201-500 employees

I migrated our HR/Recruiting department to ClearCompany from a more expensive Legacy ATS that was showing its age and cost much more. Beware of a few things. First, while they aren't a bad software suite, they aren't great, and suffer from not being particularly good in any one aspect compared to competitors, whether its functionality, features, price, etc. They do, however, have a great sales team that is prepared to sell their product as the next great thing. They also spent a lot of money on help modules (professional Youtube clips) and making their software aesthetically pleasing. However, when in actual use, the software is not as good as the image would lead you to believe. It is one of the more glitchy pieces of HR software I've ever used with experience in excess of over 10 ATS/HRIS/CRM/etc. Using it is not intuitive, from selecting dispositions, to making changes, to posting ads, to running reports. For the price, it in the lower half of pricing for equivalent ATS software packages, but on the high end of that, and each additional option and login costs a lot. There are a lot of competing products that are easier to use, less prone to malfunctions, and cheaper. While an HR department probably wouldn't hate this product, since it does work, there are absolutely better products in both directions, both at a higher price point with more functionality, as well as at lower price points with equivalent functionality.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The portal is aesthetically pleasing, with a very modern design approach. It is priced decently, although not great, cheaper than large vendors like Taleo, etc., but there are cheaper options that offer roughly the same functionality (and some better). They remain focused on compliance and update standardized forms. The Onboarding side is better than their ATS.

#### Cons

Nickel and dime for every extra item. Additional user seats are expensive. Data migration from previous ATS is expensive. Changes to the format, questions, dispositions, stages, etc. are not easy and it is hard to tailor to your company/department's specific individualized needs. In order to make it pretty, they made it very difficult to change formatting. In addition, if you require ClearCompany to make a change, it takes a while and costs a lot. Controls are pretty, but aren't intuitive. They are NOT GoogleforJobs compliant. When I last asked them for an update in 2017, they stated it wasn't necessary and had only the most vague understanding of why this was important. Their mobile optimization is horrible and frequently has issues. Their ATS is glitchy.

My overall experience with ClearCo has been positive. It is easy to use and provides helpful tools for tracking goals and supporting my growth and development in my role. It also helps facilitate productive communication with my manager by providing visibility into goals, progress, and performance.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5

#### Pros

I appreciate how ClearCo makes it easy to enter, manage, and track progress toward my goals. The goal progress visuals are especially helpful, as they provide a clear and intuitive view of my status and achievements.

#### Cons

The goal-tracking process requires a significant amount of manual data entry and multiple clicks to generate progress updates, which can be time-consuming.

#### Reasons for switching to ClearCo

I switched from ADP to ClearCo because its user-friendly design and ease of use make it simpler to manage goals.

### We were lucky that ClearCo did not mess with the way we track employee ownership

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Brion S.

When we had several users working in shared excel files, it was very difficult to keep everyone using the same formula or version of a file. In addition to managing employee vesting, ClearCo manages the 409A valuations and compliance documentation so that leadership does not bother me about those things. The fact that they included a "valuation slider" lets them at least get an idea of what their options are worth.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

To be honest I am quite surprised ClearCo did not fail. At least the dashboard seems to show us all our grant information and vesting schedules correctly and did not blow up. I also got a nice response when I called [sensitive content hidden] from the on-boarding group to fix some set-up issues. All of my excel spreadsheets are gone. It gives good security and makes team collaboration easier.

#### Cons

On the main page where they display the company's stock price they only show it as a two digit number after the decimal. However we need to see this value out to four digits. Therefore I currently can not see the actual value of our shares. They took away personal contact support by changing their support to a generic email box. When creating internal management info system (MIS) reports, they are inflexible. Even though there is a report generator built into ClearCo, if you want your audit reports formatted in a particular way, you will still have to dump everything back into an Excel spreadsheet. This defeats the purpose of using ClearCo in the first place.

I now have the ability to view the calendar and know who will be out before I plan my own vacation. I do not have to call HR to ask them to send me my previous pay stubs because they are already available in my account.

Here I sit with a now cold cup of coffee and found out that this time the Google login really did work without resetting my password. Not a bad idea having everything about me (salary & docs) in one place.

#### Cons

I am able to locate my tax documents (W-2), which is nearly impossible to do in ClearCompany and I normally spend 20 minutes searching every year for this document. In addition, I hate the monthly security code that you need to enter into your account. It is very repetitive for something that doesn't seem to serve a purpose. My "Stuff" tab has been blank the entire time I used Clear Company and it appears to be broken.

ClearCompany is the best ATS I have seen. It does what we need it to do, is reliable, and provides a great platform for different team members to collaborate and productively add new employees to the company.

#### Cons

Sometimes the integration we have between ClearCompany and our HRIS misbehaves, and we have to call it in for support. Because these are two different organizations, sometimes there is a little tail chasing, where one company says the problem resides with the other, and we get advised to troubleshoot with the other party. Eventually the problems always get solved, wherever they lie, but sometimes support is a little eager to delegate away when in reality they could help us if they took the time.

#### Cons

The reporting is subpar and you would be better off with a different applicant tracking system. Clear company does not block an applicant from applying to a position multiple times, leading to a lot of clutter in the system that you might find unnecessary or confusing.

Overall I've been really impressed with this ATS system. I'd never used it before, and it is a very robust system with a lot of features. It was easy to learn, and it's easy to make minor changes to templates and forms when needed. The customer support is better than what I've experienced with other ATS systems.

#### Pros

It is easy to learn, has many features, and allows you to easily track applicants. We also use it to send offer letters, initiate onboarding activities, and schedule interviews. There are many features in one platform, and it is straightforward to learn how to use the features. We have a dedicated account manager whom we can contact when we have to escalate issues, and they also have an online chat feature with customer service.

#### Cons

Sometimes the reporting is not consistent with results after you run a query, and the applications sometimes get submitted in different formats based on the method the applicant uses to apply. Also, sometimes the customer service team doesn't give a complete answer to your question.

#### Reasons for choosing ClearCo

I was not part of the process, but I believe it was due to the cost and the fact that it offers international recruiting functionality.

From the Onboarding/Recruiting prospective, CC has been wonderful. We would have never been able to do what we do with the old system we had. Being able to onboard in the same platform as the ATS streamlines the process and the integration with ADP is very helpful.

Without Clear Company we would have never been able to work as efficiently as we did during Covid. We were able to have the onboarding and recruiting staff work remotely with ease. In fact, we have been able to keep the staff in remote work situations past the worst of Covid and have found our productivity has increased.

#### Cons

It would be nice to sort all of the requisitions by title. It would be nice if the career site could be posted by location then the candidate could click a city/county and be able to narrow down those positions. Yes, there is a search option but when you first go to the site and see 200+ positions it is a bad impression.

We wanted to integrate ADP, appraisals, onboarding, recruiting.

Recruiting and keeping track of candidates has made my life so much easier when before I would have to log everything on a spreadsheet. I find the benefits of onboarding is great. again everything is one location, accounting gets a completed packet with nothing missing prior to their first day. Also creating a checklist of items that need to be completed internally for each new hire helps not to miss anything. I think feature requests typically take a long time and if it is something we really need we are always offered the option that it can be done but it would come at a cost.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

What I like most about the software is that I have all the information for candidates and employees in one place. That I can upload files like Caliper tests, emails and additional info to a candidates profile and the same for employees. Like union cards, intern confirmation letters to name a couple.

#### Cons

So I don't like that I don't have an overview in the dashboard of what internal packet items have not been completed. The employee name and percentage is listed on my dashboard but it would be great if I was able to see what has not been completed and by who. I feel I would be able to stay on top of it more. Right now the only way for me to see what is not completed is to go into each employees internal packet to see who owes what. Due to the pandemic I had to schedule a lot of virtual meetings through Microsoft teams since ClearCompany does not offer that option. So being that you already sync with outlook I don't understand why microsoft teams is not available through ClearCo. Its extra work for me since I need to go back and forth and then type a note so I can keep a record of what happened.

#### Reasons for choosing ClearCo

The features and affordability of the product.

### Big fan of the Brainier LMS!

At this moment, I don't have many cons...sometimes the cons are that I want something that isn't out there...as long as they are looking into what I want, that's all I can hope for. I have made choices that turned out to be not so great after a while...using the Brainier LMS is NOT one of those. I am still happy with it, still excited about it, and look forward to it's growth that brings our Company to a better place.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

You can't speak of the LMS without talking about it's ease of use. It's the number one thing for users! It has to be easy enough for people to use so you don't spend all of your time walking people through managing their learning all of the time. The second thing...reporting! I get 95% of what I need out of the static reports and it provides me with numbers hat we couldn't get before. Yes, other LMS platforms may offer the same thing but these seem so easy...ties into the ease of use. Third, the implementation team, the help desk, and the sales team...these people are real people and do their absolute best to help in any way that you ask. They are never insulting when the problem is actually me. I trust them wholeheartedly to help me understand and work through what I need to. Having the freedom to personalize the experience is great. All my wants or concerns are considered and I have a platform for them to be reviewed... I enjoy the product and the people and look forward to a continued partnership and the evolution of the system which improves all of the time! And that Groupings tab is awesome...saved us a rewrite of our group structure! That's a big deal!

#### Cons

Cons...there are some improvements that could be made. I personally have a hard time with the custom reports, could be just me but I think there could be some improvement there. There are some little things like being able to delete things?! I fully understand why they don't have that feature but how about a "hide" or something, just to make it cleaner...we do make mistakes. I wish the lists would keep the filters on, like if I am looking at 100 users or objects per page, I keep having to select that...just keep the 100 or maybe just keep whatever my last choice was, idk. Sometimes I want more data in the static reports, like the "Tag" (I'll add that to the forum).

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The HR on-boarding process is straightforward and reliable. Tracking candidates is easy and requisitions are easy to deploy. Customer service is expensive but very responsive and very helpful.

#### Cons

The platform is very inflexible in terms of exporting data, especially application answers. Usage of their API is behind a pay wall, and reporting is lackluster.

As a new user of ClearCompany I was initially very excited. As you open the dashboard the interface is clean and well laid out, the candidate and req screens are easy to navigate for a novice to an expert. They have a cool function where you can leave a note on a candidate or req with the @ sign and share immediately with other users via a push to their email-- WHAT??? So cool. Really. They've recently added text, which is a great function- except that your number is blocked to the candidate and vice versa. I am sure this is for security, but it makes it confusing when text convos are on-going. A small price to pay for text function, but it's there. My main concern with this program- thus far- is that their reporting is reportedly in development- and you can use the "old reporting" or the "new reporting"- this is confusing in of itself- not to mention the list of reports is daunting and confusing in the use of interchangeable language that does quite hit the mark. Overall I give this product a thumbs up for the total package. I don't pay for this package- but if I did, I would push harder on development team to get it together and come out with updates and fixes a tad faster. We're all busy.

I have been with 3 different companies looking for ATS solutions. I used Clear Company at the first, tried to implement at the second and I brought it with me and implemented at the third.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The functionality of the software and the ease to tailor to our needs is amazing. If you want the software to do something, and it's not, it usually user error. If you want a feature, chances are it's in there!! The chat feature and online tools are spot on and the account managers are attentive and supportive.

#### Cons

I don't ways want to go to reports. I would like export options on individual screens. It's not a deal breaker at all. I am just spoiled by all the other features so now I want one click satisfation on this too.

#### Reasons for choosing ClearCo

I didn't even look for an alternative. I have always been satisified with Clear so why change. We did not have an ATS so Clear Company was the place to start.

### ATS system that makes tracking easy

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5

#### Pros

ClearCompany applicant tracking system is very intuitive for both recruiters and hiring managers. The system allows you to reply directly to candidate and forward them to the hiring manager. The best part is that all of the information is kept in one place for easy reference. You can view the email correspondence with each candidate, add interview notes and attach documents.

#### Cons

I wish there was a better way to sort candidates based on the jobs they're matched with or could potentially be matched to. The software has a Talent Pool feature, but I don't find it useful unless there is an open requisition for the type of job the candidate could be considered for.

Pleasantly surprise. This is my first time using it and I am already recommending it to other colleagues in the industry.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The efficiency of being able to do onboarding all electronically which means they don't have to spend the time to drive to the hotel just to fill out a piece of paper before they start their job. I also like how easy it is to keep track of candidates as they move down the pipeline in the hiring process, how you can text and email them right from the website, etc.

#### Cons

Nothing. I went through the onboarding process myself and now I am onboarding other associates, and I think the site is great!!!
