No incentive was offered Overall if we get in a position where hiring is becoming a problem again i would use this service again. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The Platform was easy to use and provided a number of quality applicants. We were able to fill the positions needed #### Cons Their program worked as it was advertised to the only downside was the continued cost while not utilizing it for hiring. --- ### Give it a try! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Renee H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospitality - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: December 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. It’s been a positive experience over the last year or two and we are pretty happy with being able to use it as part of our hiring process #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros User friendliness and the ability to customize the hiring pipeline, including adding a prescreen questionnaire #### Cons Not knowing how each applicant found us or what platform they used. Applicants are still finding ways to bypass looking at the job ad when applying #### Reasons for switching to AvaHR We wanted to try a new platform to reach a bigger audience --- ### Good for basic ATS needs - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Leandra K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: January 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: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros I work for a small organization as the sole recruiter, and in this case, VivaHR is simple and easy to use. It's easy to create job postings and have applicants populate in the ATS. It's easy to customize your own pipelines and disposition candidates. It was important that our ATS linked to BambooHR which we use for onboarding, and VivaHR has an easy integration for that. My Account Manager is easy to reach and is super helpful when I have questions about the product. #### Cons One thing that is difficult is the search feature. I often search a candidate's name and they don't populate because they have been dispositioned. I then have to change the filters to allow me to see dispositioned candidates but I wish they would always populate. VivaHR also doesn't seem to notice duplicate candidates, so I unfortunately have a lot of duplicate profiles in the system. I wish it would keep track of all applications within one candidate profile instead of creating a new profile for every time a candidate applies to a new role. This also makes it difficult to keep track of notes when I have to try to find my notes on a candidate but there's a profile for them for each role they've applied to. I also wish I had the ability to edit and/or delete a note. --- ### Great Product - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rebecca E. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2026 - 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.
