iCIMS Talent Platform Software

Pros

Very user-friendly interface with lots of customization options. It also has a very good reporting tool.

Cons

The reporting tool has a limit which gets really annoying when you want to export for analysis on other tools. Availability of lots of options on the dashboard makes it look busy and sometimes hard to navigate.

Pros

iCIMS has been great for our team to use. It is super helpful in keeping track of all of the new hires coming in. The daily report has been a lifesaver with knowing who and how many people are in the pipeline so we can plan for getting new hires onboareded.

Cons

I don't have anything bad to say about iCIMS. It works great for our team and gives me all the info I need to know about the new hires coming into the office.

Pros

If you have the ability to search it is easy to search for candidates and jobs. Nice at a glance of applicants in bin.

Cons

In order to search you must give all hiring managers this ability. It also gives them the ability to see everything about your candidate/new applicant including salary offer and benefits made- not cool. Too many updates.

Overall, iCIMS Talent Platform is a great way of hiring the best resources for your organization. The dashboard is user-friendly and it allows one to track all requisitions through various stages. It one be great if iCIMS Talent Platform could integrate better with other softwares and tools.

Pros

iCIMS Talent Platform makes it very easy to navigate the best candidates for a requisition, it helps create, change and delete job requisitions with ease and has a easy to use interface.

Cons

One of the main cons of iCIMS Talent Platform is that it does not integrate well with other talent acquisition and performance management tools and this causes third party interfaces and bridges to be build to achieve the same purpose.

Antiquated and cumbersome

Pros

The only thing I can see that iCims has going for itself in a positive light is name recognition. Beyond that, I would run.

Cons

ICims, for the candidate/potential new employee is Not user friendly. It also makes that so important first impression of a company, less than a good impression.
For the end user/recruitment team, the software is easier than what the candidate experience is, however, that is not saying much. iCims is clunky, cumbersome and frustrating to use. And then there is the customer service. We had a question that we were not able to find an answer to in all the resources provided. When we called iCims we were told to see and read the resources provided to us. We told them we were not able to locate a solution to the problem within the resources and that was why we were calling - their response, I’m sorry we can’t help you.

iCims is great at building a relationship as a strategic partner.

Pros

The platform is logical and intuitive to recruiters. It is designed to be an effective recruitment tool by engaging the employer with active and passive job seekers.

Cons

We are still in the design phase of the implementation. I have been very pleased with the transition from the sales team to the implementation team. Everyone listens very well and is very responsive to our needs an wants. I have not found anything that disappointments me thus far.

Pros

iCIMS is widely used and preferred by many corporations, it's also a practical choice for a tool when you want to post internal and external hiring opportunities. The webpage is easy to access even on a slow internet connection.

Cons

It's not easy to use for first-timers and applicants, if they do not have experience using iCIMS for lodging applications, assistance would be needed.

icims is defiantly suited to larger companies. It might a little over priced and not be as user friendly as some competitors like Workday.

Pros

Icims is well trusted by large companies for being able to provide custom recruiting software. They have the ability to solve very complex workflow and thus help companies automate process that used to be quite manual. With this they great features like automated requisition approvals making it easy for users. icims is ideal for larger companies with every complex internal process and structures.

Cons

Icims might be too complex for inexperienced users. It is ideal for larger companies and some if the features might be a little dated.

The Account Managers are frequently rotating. You will often contact your Account Manager and find out they're no longer your Account Manager as they point you to someone else for assistance. The Account Managers aren't the most responsive either.

Pros

The iCIMS NOW platform has all the functions you need and works well for a relatively low price point. Technical Support is very knowledgeable and helpful.

Cons

They have discontinued the iCIMS NOW platform and are only offering the iCIMS Recruit platform, which has more features but at over double the cost.

Pros

Easy to Use from start to finish! It was easy to use the forms to complete talent process. Directions and assistance in the process was easy to use.

Cons

There are no cons to application. Easy to Use from start to finish! It was easy to use the forms to complete talent process. Directions and assistance in the process was easy to use.

Pros

The iCims talent platform is easy to use and is easy to organize your candidates. You can add notes in each profile and move them to each category of the hiring stage with ease. I recommend to companies who need help with their external and internal recruiting.

Cons

There are some days that the interface is down for a couple hours. It impacts our recruiting as we cannot do anything for the time it is down. Also, I found that the customer service is slow.

Pros

1) Easy to use - creation and posting open job
2) Good reporting features and dashboard
3) Provide features for customization

Cons

1) Need a interactive messaging features
2) Doesnot qualify for full service system
3) UI to be improved

Pros

Does all the things the others do - not many differentiating features. Nice Dashboard feature does give a slight edge against others

Cons

Some of the search functions are limited, and submitting to paid job sites isn't anything spectacular - most ATS do the same.

Used with my previous firm and loved it, just too expensive for my current role versus a competitor which we went with instead.

Pros

Came across this firm early on about 10 years ago and was certainly impressed. Really great interface, good process flow and super easy to use.

Cons

Honestly only negative I can think of is the price which has increased quite a bit the past few years.

Pros

Holds a ton of information in a very organized manner. Allows you to upload files to candidates' profiles. Creating email templates is very straightforward.

Cons

You can never be sure that your work will save. Even if you press the save button, there can be a glitch where your work disappears. I recommend typing everything into a different program and then pasting it into iCIMS in order to ensure you do not lose your work (and time!)

Pros

It is kind of hard to find a lot of jobs in Icims platform but, for the ones you find it is easy to save and look at where in the process the application is.

Cons

There are not a lot of features in this platform and there is no way to store seasonal workers files in there so we can go back and see if anyone is available.

If it's affordable for your company, it is worth it.

Pros

It is easy to use. It is easy to learn. It has good searching capabilities. There is a lot of functionality.

Cons

It is very expensive. If you are a smaller company and don't need the bells and whistles, it is pricy.

Pros

ease of use, customer service support, and knowledge base library are all great along with the collaborative community of users.

Cons

there are glitches that occur upon the update of required documents [i.e., 2017 Federal Tax W4 form updating to 2018 was a nightmare].

Pros

Tracking and creating job posts is easy. Able to see statuses throughout the applicant lifecycle. New updates are frequent.

Cons

The candidate documentation is hard to find. There needs to be more customization options. Implementation of the tool took awhile.

Pros

The product is good to use. All the information taken are ease to put in. The main advantage is it is a good application to detail an applicants information

Cons

The product is good. but it takes lot of time to fill in and sometimes i had issue with updating the calendar of my carrier.
