- 2 stars: 0 reviews (0%)
- 1 star: 0 reviews (0%)

### Most mentioned pros

- We haven't used the app long but we have been successful finding dedicated employees
- One of the features that makes this tool so attractive is the scope of people it has, as it has a large database that provides a variety of profiles that allow you to choose personnel that adapt to the multiple vacancies that need to be filled.
- I really enjoy using this product, from the availability of the liaisons at Seekout, to the ability to create power filters, to the DEI search functions, as well as the ability to search on other platforms (ie. github, meetups, linkedin, etc).

### Most mentioned cons

- While it can pull some, this software isn't the best for looking at talent other than technical (i.e. recruiters, sales executives, etc)
- The experience is clunky when it comes to navigating from SeekOut to LinkedIn Recruiter if the outbound campaign leads with an InMail. But that seems more to do with LinkedIn’s API than SeekOut.
- The tool's phone number and email matching sometimes provides too many options to be accurate

### Powerful sourcing filters and excellent team collaboration features

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Flavia C.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Staffing and Recruiting
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: August 2026
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I used SeekOut for approximately two years, primarily for candidate sourcing rather than outreach. My overall experience was very positive. The platform was easy to learn, offered reliable and detailed filters, and supported complex searches without making the process unnecessarily difficult. The bulk export functionality was particularly valuable when multiple recruiters worked on the same role, as it allowed us to divide profiles clearly and prevent duplicated sourcing work. Although I preferred manual searches over its AI functionality, I could see the AI search being useful for less experienced recruiters or simpler assignments. I had no major usability complaints. The primary disadvantage was the price, which eventually led my company to discontinue the platform.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

SeekOut offers strong search filters and makes it easy to maintain control over complex candidate searches. One of its most useful features is the ability to export profiles in bulk to an Excel file. When several recruiters were sourcing for the same position, we could divide the exported profiles among the team and avoid repeatedly reviewing or contacting the same candidates. The interface is intuitive and easy to learn. Its AI-assisted search can also be helpful for junior recruiters, beginners, or people conducting less complex searches.

#### Cons

SeekOut was expensive, and the cost was prohibitive for a smaller company such as the one I worked at. They eventually stopped using and the cost was the deciding factor. I also did not find the AI search particularly useful for my own work. I prefer to build searches manually because it gives me more control over the criteria and results. However, this is more a matter of working style than a major problem with the platform.

### The Evolution of a Great Talent Sourcing Tool

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Defense & Space
- Company size: 10000+ employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2020
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I have used SeekOut as a tool to augment information about target talent audiences. SeekOut's ability to aggregate social data has been a game-changer. SeekOut Expert has been a valuable addition to its offering. SeekOut insights have been valuable in terms of visualizing information that illustrates trends that TA leadership values. Finally, SeekOut's ability to integrate with our CRM has been extremely valuable.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

SeekOut is a product that has done their background research on what the talent acquisition marketplace needed. They listened and made the improvements the market requested. Now as the organization has evolved, SeekOut is not anticipating and leading in innovation in this key software segment. Specifically, what I like about SeekOut is the ability to aggregate data from Linkedin Public Profiles with other social sites like GitHub. I am particularly enjoying the SeekOut expert and other features that facilitate original research on target talent.

#### Cons

I am skeptical about the ability of AI-based on the limited information contained on a LinkedIn public profile to be robust enough to really make a positive impact. The beauty of AI is its ability to process big data and make recommendations based on parsing lots of information. Also, I find there are about 15-20% fewer people with public LinkedIn profiles that are found on LinkedIn's own platforms. Finding a way to add those missing profiles would be an added addition. Finally, increasing the number of home email addresses fro the target talent is an ongoing challenge. While improvements are made, this might be an area where AI can shine.

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

Again, the ease of use which led to greater user adoption and the value of SeekOut Expert and other features.

#### Reasons for switching to SeekOut

Easy of use and value of SeekOut expert.

### SeekOut Basic Review

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Russ H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Computer & Network Security
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: March 2020
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

SeekOut has provided our company with a great source of candidates and direct contact information and is a good tool for creating and maintaining talent pools. I've used it to support a client in their contract staffing needs (IT Consulting Co.) very well.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

There are several features that the basic version has that we find very useful: - Filters for searches - Ability to exclude/include companies, titles, skills in searching - search down to the city area level - Being able to quickly create projects for searches - Finding contact information (personal emails, some ph #'s and even work emails) - The AI Recommendation of candidates once a project has been established. Great source of additional candidates possbilities.

#### Cons

It doesn't integrate with ATS's ... at least not at the basic user level. It does allow for CMS file creation but has a limited # of pre-mapped tables you can use with other tools (11 in total). This could definitely be improved. Also, direct integration would be an improvement where you could send candidates into your ATS directly without downloading. There seems to be a growing number of outdated profiles in the system. SeekOuts database needs to be updated more often.

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

More cost-effective and better sourcing option!

#### Reasons for switching to SeekOut

SeekOut searches and AI are much easier to utilize over LOXO's very cumbersome setup.

#### Vendor response

We appreciate the review, Russ. SeekOut integrates with over 20 different ATS & CRM systems. You can read about it here: https://support.seekout.io/hc/en-us/categories/360004811831-Integrate-your-ATS

### SeekOut is awesome for technical searches

Phenomenal software, very easy to use, great algorithms for tough searches

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Search algorithm accurately identifies more candidates than other software we've used

#### Cons

Resume search from internet; this only really enables us to import LinkedIn profiles vs. resumes from personal websites, etc. Also, getting from the project to the campaign is clunky - I wish you could add to the campaigns like you can to the projects.

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

For the search functionality and metrics capabilities

#### Reasons for switching to SeekOut

SeekOut is more useful for heavily technical searches, which is what we do more of. It also has improved on the diversity features, which is why we originally opted for entelo.

### Expensive but Unbeatable Search Capabilities

I'm very disappointed SeekOut increased its price by almost 200% and eliminated their monthly subscriptions. For almost every search, I rely on my custom boolean vs. using only their filters. Because I don't utilize all of SeekOut's features, we're still unsure if the price increase is worth it but will re-assess at the end of the year.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I really enjoy being able to use their pre-populated search features in addition to the custom advance search features. I'm able to narrow down candidates with very particular skills and experience with no problem. I also really enjoy that you can request contact info (not always available /accurate). It's super helpful that your search is automatically saved/attached to the project in which you added your search results, so you don't have to worry about where you left off!

#### Cons

Not much that I don't enjoy. They could improve by making it easier to navigate back and forth from the project and search page. It would help if they offered more project ranking options. Also, when using * in the keyword/boolean search, it would help if the results would show the corresponding keyword on the profile (just like the regular search feature).

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

Better search options, capabilities, and candidate database

Our experience with Seekout so far has been awesome. The team has been extremely hands on, helpful and very supportive as we implement to our global TA team. The product itself is sophisticated, easy to use/navigate and has unlocked insights/profiles the team would not have access to otherwise.

The product has been easy for the team to grasp and learn from a sourcing perspective. The insights have been extremely valuable.

#### Cons

The only major con so far for some of our high volume teams would be the limited number of export credits each month.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The search function is really easy to use and intuitive. The results I get back are very relevant and I get a very high amount more so than other job sites. The export function is also great and again the ease of use of the entire site is so important to me as I don't have to spend a lot of time on trainings and ramp up time to get used to a new platform, I was able to jump in from day 1. The links in a person's profile is super helpful.

Recruiting tech talent requires as much personalization as one can get on the candidates you are recruiting. SeekOut gives intel on the candidates' LinkedIN profiles and their GitHub repos, which are both a great resource when emailing or even calling these individuals.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I love that it incorporates GitHub and LinkedIn features.

#### Cons

I dislike that the signatures that you can make for yourself seem a little sloppy. I also dislike that I am required to create a new signature for each messaging campaign. Oftentimes I will do a search and then continue to add profiles to projects. If I've already sent individuals to a campaign and I want to add new ones, I need to create a whole new campaign so that the original candidates don't get re-sent all of the campaign emails. So, I am creating multiple series of the same campaign (Java Devs Atlanta I/Java Devs Atlanta II/Java Devs Atlanta III/etc) as I add individuals with the same profiles to my projects. I hope this makes sense. If the system recognizes that certain individuals have already been put through the campaign, they will not be resent it. I hope that makes sense. IF not, I am happy to speak with someone.

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

Additional features (GitHub) and price

#### Cons

There are many profiles that are outdated or not up to date in seekout. Many people are no longer with the companies and do not match their Linkedin profiles. ALso, for some reason if you are doing a search in a geographic area such as NYC you get people from San Fran or other places. Not sure why that happens.

#### Reasons for choosing SeekOut

I think SeekOut is a great tool for a recruiter to have in their arsenal, but it would not be effective as a sole-sourcing resource as the accuracy is not perfect.

#### Ratings breakdown

I like the diversity filters most for sourcing.

#### Cons

The accuracy of profile updates - often if I click on a profile to view the candidate in LinkedIn, they have moved to another company months back and would not be looking for a new position anymore. So the profiles on SeekOut don't update frequently enough. I also don't like that I can't save a search to a project and source out of a specific project.

Overall, Seekout has provided a great alternate way to source candidates and I now depend on it daily for finding candidate contact information.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I love that I can easily track down contact information as I source. This saves my team a lot of time when it comes to outreach, and it limits the number of LinkedIn inmails we have to use. Seekout also has great advanced boolean options that allow me to do more complex searches. Lately, I've been taking advantage of the Github search feature which makes it really easy to find candidate for technical roles.

#### Cons

I don't like that there's a lag between Seekout and LinkedIn, so some of the information can be out of date. Also, while the email finding feature is great, it is not always accurate. I think Seekout's algorithms are improving, so this could become less of an issue as time goes on.

### Cannot Recommend SeekOut Enough!

#### Pros

I love seekout and recommend it to all our new hires - I love how easy it is to use, I like that the search algorithm seems to filter out a lot of the "noise" showing only the most relevant candidates, and I also like that I can use diversity filters. This tool has helped me have a tremendous impact when it came to hiring underrepresented talent. I also love playing around with the power filters and seeing how that can help my search.

#### Cons

The only suggestion I have is to add a feature where you can jump back in to any previous search (not just the last 3-4 sourcing strings, and without having to save a search). Also, it would be cool if we could see what day that search string was ran as well.

My job requires me to perform engineering searches that's heavily focused on academic experience (PhD focus etc) And I really like how they pull information from sources like Github and PhD publications. This provide way more relevant and accurate search results

#### Cons

I'm not a fan of the monthly credit with email and phone number. Similar recruiting platforms (Entelo etc) provides that information for free
