## Reviews

### "Excellent product overall. Definitely pleased we purchased it..." — 5.0/5

> **Scott** | *3 December 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to use. Intuitive in all ways. The Long List presentation function is extremely strong and my Executives have responded to it very well. Very easy to upload profiles and resumes, as well as to edit details   once a candidate is in the system. Good search functionality - both for candidates and roles (although we do not use all of the functionality, as we are a Software company and not a search firm).
> 
> **Cons**: Clockwork used to work PERFECTLY with LinkedIn, but since LinkedIn changed their formatting, I can no longer use Clockwork with Recruiter. Therefore, I have to find the candidates in Recruiter and then go to their Public profile in order to use the direct input functionality for the software. It is only 1 extra step, so it is not difficult to do so, but it is none-the-less frustrating when I was used to it working perfectly with LinkedIn before... That said, it would not keep me from using the software \&amp; I literally just re-upped my licenses for my team a couple of weeks ago...
> 
> The experience has been generally quite good. Purchasing the product is easy and the women we have dealt with in getting a PO have been quite responsive and helpful. I have not had many issues with the software, but on the one or two occasions I did, I could not reach a live person, but only an e-mail address. The person responded in a timely way, but they did so by sending me a link to a video on YouTube to answer my questions. These did answer my questions, but I felt it was a bit impersonal and would have liked to speak with a live Customer Service rep. Again, as with my comment above, this is not going to keep my team from using the product, but it is definitely something Clockwork can improve upon, as the rest of the product experience has been great...

### "Great in most areas of Clockwork" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *3 December 2020* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I Still love the ease of parsing a person's LinkedIn profile to their Positions, and Contact Info fields.  &#10;&#10;I appreciate the ease of setting Tags on People to easily export lists for Email Marketing purposes.&#10;&#10;Our Consultants would say the ease of sharing Projects to our Clients.
> 
> **Cons**: We had been waiting for a resolution on a few primary fields within Deals.  We are able to use them now via Custom Fields.  &#10;&#10;We would like to see a more robust Companies section.  Currently any Company name can be added via LinkedIn Profile / Contact Grabber.  This leads to a lot of duplication of Companies, which requires ongoing maintenance.&#10;&#10;When our data was originally imported - from an Encore database, our Internal Projects (we term a result as Internal, when our Client hires/promotes an internal Candidate) were imported twice.  I had to manually go through each duplicate Project (58 of them), remove Notes pertaining to the duplicate project on each Person's record.. and remove each person individually from the project.  It was a huge manual process to correct a Clockwork import error.
> 
> Very positive.

### "Newer, Still Working Out Kinks. Very Manual" — 3.0/5

> **Jordan** | *31 January 2024* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I enjoyed the customization we were able to implement for our business/client needs. It got the job done after a lot of manual work. The customer support team is dedicated to improve the product and assist.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not a pretty product, very bland interface. We had many issues with updating status (often times a lag) and it's a very manual product (I've used better and more functional CRM/ATS products).

### "Intuitive; Streamlines Executive Search Workflow" — 5.0/5

> **Beth** | *10 December 2020* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Clockwork has changed the way we work internally and with our clients. The interface is clean, user-friendly. There is a "client view" which enables collaboration with the hiring team. We were early adopters and updates haven't gotten in the way of our workflow through the years.  &#10;&#10;As one reviewer notes, limited live customer support (which seems to be more common these days with SaaS), but the online team is prompt and responsive. Users can suggest and vote on features you would like to see implemented in future versions of the software.&#10;&#10;We reviewed other ATS software, but Clockwork was the best for our needs as an executive recruiting firm.
> 
> **Cons**: Although not troublesome enough to change services, I would like to see more seamless integration with LinkedIn Recruiter. Currently, Clockwork pulls top-level data (bio, work history, etc.), which is helpful. But Clockwork's Contact Grabber typically does not pull sub-data under work history. Hopefully this is being reviewed/resolved. &#10;&#10;Also, I would like to see a notice or flag in Clockwork when an individual updates his/her/their LinkedIn profile so that the database stays current. Perhaps something they are working on?
> 
> Overall, very happy with Clockwork\! Highly recommended, especially for executive search consultants who don't need all the bulky features of many of the ATS products on the market. Good pricepoint.

### "Clockwork Recruiting Review" — 5.0/5

> **Kirsten** | *8 December 2020* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The largest pro about the software is that it is user friendly and straightforward, especially when building a database of candidates. The software is easy to navigate and has plenty of features that both retained and contingent recruitment professionals would find relevant and useful. One feature that is quite useful is having the files section separate from the notes section so that is it is easy and quick to access/store files associated with the candidate or client. It is also helpful that Clockwork can provide different types of reports for the projects and that you can access them at different stages of a project. It is also a large pro that it is easy to edit, modify or change information for projects, clients and candidates in Clockwork.
> 
> **Cons**: There is nothing specific that stands out as a con about this software. There could be improvement with identifying when two candidate profiles are different from one another and there is no need to merge them (and not continuously notifying the user). There could also be improvement within the companies section and creating a section to group companies in similar industries so that target lists could be created easier with the information that is already in the database.
