I like that CATS is super user friendly. I also like that it's customizable. More recently, we've been using it with our HRIS system and it has been helpful that it integrates so well with that (BambooHR). We also use it to integrate with job postings on our website and it helps to track people who apply to positions. I like that when someone applies, it automatically moves their information into the ATS portion.
I wish there was the ability to bulk email a little bit easier but it's not a huge issue. Otherwise, there are no dislikes that I have about the system.
It is a great applicant tracking system and it is very cost-effective and user friendly. The pricing is not outrageous and it helps keep us extremely organized as a whole. It is helpful to keep historical data of conversations our recruiters have with potential candidates.
We are using it for our applicant tracking system. It keeps our recruiting team very well organized and up to date with items.
I love how intuitive and user friendly CATS is. It allows me to see all of my candidates for each job at a glance. I also love how I can email candidates right from the status tab.
I don't like the fact that I can't change the status to the same thing twice in a row on a particular candidate in the workflow. Instead I have to choose a new workflow status and then change it back to leave a new note.
We used to use an excel spreadsheet to keep track of candidates we contacted and then use mail merge to email them. Now, I can upload them as I go into CATS and easily email them right away right from the app. It also makes sure that I never miss an email because my email syncs with the CATS system
For starters, customer service is awesome. I have use this software since 2012, and it keeps getting better and better. It’s very user-friendly and keeps a lot of data at your fingertips. It doesn’t take a lot to get started, and it has a lot of integrations that Connect with my chrome browser for easy data entry.
The reporting function has a lot to be desired. I personally like to be able to break down into small bits of information to find places for improvement across my team. This really just measures very basic data.
Not only is the price point exceptional, but it is very functional across the board
Having a good software where I can manage clients and candidates has soft many problems. It keeps things very easy and accessible.
With CATS you literally have everything you need for candidate tracking. Is user friendly and very detailed. Apart from the candidate friendly application process, it let's me upload resumes from candidates who show up to our offices without applying online. The easiest part of it all are the metrics. Easy to download reports too, makes my job alot easier so I can concentrate on other tasks. Furthermore, they recently integrated the SMS service, were I can send messages to candidates and keep track of it all in the candidates file.
The only thing I could suggest is having different language settings. For example, I use this program here in Puerto Rico, many of my coworkers a do not understand English as good as I do.
Review all the training videos they provide on their website.
One of the problems we resolved with CATS was the EEO tracking of our candidates.
The workflow automation is amazing and it makes my job so much easier. The effectiveness of the system allows me focus on what I'm best at. I love the ability to customize basically everything within the system.
I wish there was a click to call feature.
I am finding amazing effectiveness in my recruiting business because of the automation of my workflow in sending emails and creating tasks. I can just spend my time doing the things I do best rather than organizing information or deciding what my next task is.
I've worked with other Applicant Portals, but CATS is always the best for me. It is easy to receive applicants as well as going back to search candidates
I do not like that some times when I check to see if a candidate is in the Portal, it does not show me that they are there until I try adding them again
Yes highly recommended
CATS provides candidates from various job boards
It is extremely easy to use once you get to understand the way it works. It helps to find exactly the candidates that you are looking for.
There is nothing as such to dislike. If there was a way to find more information regarding the cnadidates then that would have been awesome.
Looking for candidates. This is a portal where you find them from everywhere.
I use cats to look for candidates who are looking for a job according to the positions that open up with our clients.
Efficiency, tracking candidates is very fast & clean.
I cannot find anything that I dislike about CATS.
Tracking Candidates is easy and clean.

I think that the features arround job posting are not enough developped. The layout and the fields are not very good...
Try it !!

I have been using CATS for a variety of Clients for the past 5 years. What's very helpful is the ability to customize portals, applications, fields, workflows, and messaging/escalation of critical matters via self-performance. Other systems I have used and implemented don;t come close to CATS' ability to meet individual organizations' needs. Smooth candidate experience, instant notification on any device after a candidate applies, and meaningful KPI development.
Would be great if CATS could offer digital signatures or integration with DocuSign. Only other suggestion would be to enable a "tab" interface.
Very robust ATS at a VERY reasonable cost. Support is incredibly responsive and will typically resolve any issues or concerns while you are on the phone with the expert. Support is provided at no additional cost.
Recruiting and tracking. I've transformed numerous Clients' hiring processes with the help of CATS. No paper files, spreadsheets, or manual notes. Every event from requisition development to hire is automated in CATS. Time-to-Fill often drops to 2-3 days thanks to the automated approval processes.
