Solid Sourcing Platform

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Good Product!

Pros

-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.

Cons

-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

It has allowed us to search out quality candidates across multiple sources. I would highly recommend

Pros

It has allowed us to search out quality candidates across multiple sources. I would highly recommend!System is very easy to use. It has very reliable search results.

Cons

it's almost similar to cold calling. I feel a system would benefit from an icebreaker email option. Also the lack of contact information sometimes makes it difficult to contact potential candidates when you see them in the search results field.

Great Recruiting Tool!

It integrates with our systems and is easy to use. Also there is no barrier to using it.

Pros

Helped supplement our recruiting process and fill in gaps.

Cons

You have to build it in your process and that takes commitment by the recruiters

The future of recruiting

I would recommend doing a demo and a free trial before making a decision. Entelo is great but you'll need to be making a lot of hires in an environment where 'till to fill' is of the essence to see the ROI worthy of purchasing a seat.

Pros

If you're a data analytics type you'll love Entelo. And in today's candidate market you need an edge on the competition. Entelo integrates with my ATS, has great customer service and helps me be proactive in my recruiting. I'm able to scrape the web to get candidate information otherwise unavailable to me.

Cons

Entelo is expensive. If you have multiple people recruiting you'll pay a pretty penny or find yourself sharing seats. However, if you have a heavy recruiting load it could be worth it.

Great product for a one stop shop platform...but.

The addition of your AI is nice and makes your product stand out.

Pros

Everything is on the same platform
tools for focusing on diversity candidates
easy to use
good analytics
integrates with my ATS

Cons

- EXPENSIVE

- I have built my sourcing and recruiting model and technologies out exactly the way they have theirs built for a fraction of the cost. Although theirs is in on platform and that is nice very nice

-salespeople are a bit pushy and not always the most educated

-They require you to buy 2 seats

Ok to use

Pros

They pool from all different public social areas

Cons

You don't know who is looking for a job and search doesn't always work as well as I would like.

A great tool to support your sourcing efforts

Overall, the software has helped me with sourcing efforts quite a bit - I`m looking forward to using it more.

Pros

I see Entelo as a solution complementary to Linkedin - both offer somewhat of an overlap in terms of candidates, but bring a decent sized unique pool as well. However, entelo is doing a better job with the UI and the searches don`t break down as much. Would recommend giving it a go.

Cons

Some of the profiles you find can be dated - e.g. getting excited about a potential candidate, only to find out the person took up another job 2 months ago is a possibility. I know this might be due to their agreements with partners, but having up to date information is highly important for a solution like this.

Our response rate it very low in comparison to LinkedIn Recruiter. The data is also not as fresh.

We are not seeing an ROI.

Pros

Like the "send on behalf of" functionality and access to several email addresses. Client support has been great to help us get better results.

Cons

The data is outdated, the cost is too high to realize an ROI with low response rate. It is not intended to replace LinkedIn Recruiter. We have found out the hard way that for it to be effective, our Recruiters need to use it on top of LinkedIn Recruiter. It's expensive at /seat.

Good tool. all facts required before purchasing to be able to use

Great if you can use it

Pros

Search functionality and predictive knowledge around hot candidates. Ability to find contact details and reach out without having to save and store profiles.

Cons

Unable to use in the Browser our organisation has. This was not mentioned before purchasing, and was not rectified in the 4 months of using the license. To date have had no use and has taken a month of backwards and forwards to understand the process for cancelling a license. Yet to be concluded and sales people are a little pushy and evasive from all questions asked.

Great addition to our recruiting sources

We have been using Entelo for several months and it has been a great addition to our recruiting system. It is easy to use and very effective!

Pretty good sourcing tool

Entelo lets me find candidates that I otherwise would miss and the response rate is pretty high. Overall, it's a good find.
