### "Why Workable Works"

August 19, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experience with Workable has been positive. It’s easy to use, keeps our hiring process organized, and has helped improve efficiency across the team.

Pros

Workable is intuitive and easy to use, making it simple for both recruiters and hiring managers to get up to speed quickly. The one-click job posting and collaboration tools have streamlined our process and helped us reduce time-to-fill while improving the candidate experience.

Cons

Reporting customization options are limited, and onboarding features aren’t as robust as some other platforms. Even with these areas for improvement, Workable remains a reliable, user-friendly ATS that delivers strong results for day-to-day recruiting.

### "Workable Review"

August 4, 2025

4.0

Overall, it's been a very helpful ATS for our team. Of course, there's always room for improvement nevertheless, we've been able to grow our team with the help of Workable.

Pros

I really like its ease of use for our organization's recruitment team as well as for the whole company as well. Its features are very straightforward and the automations are quite a big help to a growing team. We decided to use Workable for its integrations with our existing tools.

Cons

As we are a fast growing company, there's a lot of information stored in the system which might contribute to it slowing down. Resumes and profiles take some time to load which contributes to screening taking longer than it should be. I would have also preferred that there were more screening question options and easier filtering during screening as well.

### "Great UX but is lacking some functionalities"

July 29, 2025

3.0

Pros

\- UX - very easy to use with minimal or no training for new users - Team Collaboration - Value for money - User Interface

Cons

\- Features - E-offers: you have to manualy edit the template in google docs/word, download it and upload it in Workable settings. In case you want to edit the template, you can't do it through Workable but from google docs/word and download /upload it again - LinkedIn Recruiter Integration -The % profile matches scored by AI is not accurate

### "Workable works well – just make sure that their features fit your needs, because they're inflexible when it comes to requests"

July 31, 2025

4.0

Pros

Workable has a well-thought-out structure that covers most use cases that our company needs. The website works well, mostly without any bugs, the user interface is clean, and it makes it relatively easy for our team to manage our applicants, even for those of us who are not tech-savvy. We have never had any issues with the safety of our data, as the website gives us varied security features to grant different privilege levels to our team members, and as far as we're informed, there have never been any leaks. The features for team collaboration are decent enough to support most of our needs, though they don't fully cover all of our needs.

Cons

When it comes to the value for the money we invest in the website, I'd say we're considerably disappointed. Workable has introduced many new features, none of which have had any utility for the work we do. When we contacted the customer support, they tend to be friendly and reply quickly, but many of our requests have not been solved, and some of them have been flat-out denied – disappointing considering the high the high investment in terms of money. They've stated that our team's traffic on their website is unlike any of their other clients, and yet, they haven't made any effort to implement very simple features that we requested, such as making a form mandatory.

### "Neat ATS and easy User experience"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Easy to understand and use the interface and good functionality overall. Definitely good value for money and provides ample customer support.

Pros

Easy to understand and use the interface and good functionality. The ability to make any actions visible and collaborate with the team is great. It is quite easy to integrate outlook and schedule phone screens and candidate interviews. I like that as Super Admins it is easy to control the user access & permissions to this platform thereby enhancing security. Definitely good value for money and provides ample customer support.

Cons

if there is a feature to use AI for editing onboarding documents or forms would be good. It would be easier if AI identifies all possible editable sections which could be later manually changed by users (Recruiter) if required.

### "Must-have recruiting platform"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Best companion with Linkedin to direct candidates to complete a job application within minutes (if not seconds) and follow up with recruiters right away. From employer perspective, super easy to track the status and talent pool for each role/channel.

Pros

The easiness to search within the platform by key words (candidate name, role, etc.) and followup directly within the platofrm and via integration with outside platform e.g. G-suite.

Cons

none. But i do hope that in the near future they could come up with an advanced feature to produce all Workable records re a certain candidate into a separate folder for the purpose of record keeping. For now, we can only perform key word search and print the pages searched. Neverthess less it is a very rare request.

### "Does the basics!"

July 1, 2025

4.0

Workable has been a reliable, easy-to-use ATS that covers the core needs of day-to-day recruitment—especially for managing active pipelines and collaborating with hiring managers. The platform is clean, intuitive, and works well for reactive hiring with clear visibility over candidates’ progress. However, its limitations become more obvious at scale or when trying to move toward a more proactive, data-driven, or automated recruitment model. Reporting is only powerful when paired with BI tools, and it lacks flexibility for talent pooling, CRM-style outreach, and custom workflows per region. This creates manual workarounds and slows down strategic initiatives like internal mobility, long-term candidate engagement, or region-specific hiring processes.

Pros

Clean, intuitive UI for both recruiters and hiring managers. Visual hiring stages help you track progress easily. Email and texting features allow you to message candidates directly in-platform. Templates save time and ensure consistency across outreach.

Cons

Limited Reporting Functionality (Without BI Add-On) Native reports are quite basic and not very flexible. We rely on the BI data link + Power BI to get deeper insights, which adds complexity and cost. Interview scheduling, especially for multi-stage panels or group interviews, can be clunky.

### "Efficient, Intuitive, and Game-Changing for Hiring!"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Pros

Workable has made our hiring process more professional and efficient. The ability to post to multiple job boards with one click is a huge time-saver, and the candidate tracking system keeps everything organized. We’ve received compliments from applicants about how smooth the process is on their end too. Highly recommend for growing teams!

Cons

One area for improvement is the pricing structure—it can be a bit steep for smaller teams or startups, especially if you're scaling quickly. However, the value it brings in terms of time saved and process efficiency still makes it a worthwhile investment. If you're looking for a reliable, scalable, and modern recruitment solution, I highly recommend giving Workable a try. It’s been a fantastic asset for our team!

### "Workable - an intuitive ATS solution"

August 1, 2025

5.0

Easy to track the data and the processes, super intuitive because just by navigating for a few minutes you will learn how to use Workable.

Pros

Workable is an intuitive ATS, where you can easily integrate it with other tools, such as LinkedIn Recruiter. It provides different reports, and you can also customize it connecting the database to a reporting tool you use. Easy to track the progress of the candidates, sharing information with the hiring team, it\`s an everyday tool that helps us in recruiting to keep track of our processes and pipelines. When I needed help to get access to the database, the customer support team helped in an efficient and fast way.

Cons

Even though there's some customization on the reports, the reporting features could be still more advanced.

### "Workable has all the required functionality for a small business"

August 5, 2025

5.0

Pros

My favourite thing about Workable is that it is so easy to use, which makes it a lot easier for me to educate our hiring managers on the platform and also ensure that best practice is followed throughout our recruitment process.

Cons

There is nothing really that comes to mind, but sometimes I find that the Workable extension for sourcing candidates via LinkedIn doesn't work smoothly.

The implementation was amazing and super quick, the team were super friendly the whole time. The customer service since has been really good and they regularly reach out for feedback and to help.

Pros

Ease of use and very user friendly. Adding new team members, posting jobs and reviewing candidates is really easy

Cons

Not being able to block applicants from countries we do not work in, these candidates are desperate and cannot get visa's or require sponsorship and lie to get their applications in

### "Workable is working for us."

July 31, 2025

4.0

We migrated from a different system two years ago but went back to Workable, as it's better than the others that we have tried.

Pros

It's easy to use and helps streamline our hiring application process. The features are also easy to use and helpful in filtering and categorizing the applicants in our hiring streams.

Cons

It takes getting used to when you're new to it, as navigating the screens and features can be a bit confusing.

### "Best system "

August 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

Workable’s user-friendly interface and end-to-end recruitment features are what I liked most. It made it easy to post jobs, track applicants, and collaborate with hiring managers—all in one place. The automation tools for scheduling, emailing, and screening saved us time, and the structured pipeline helped keep the hiring process organized and consistent.

Cons

While Workable is a strong platform overall, the reporting and analytics features could be more customizable. Some metrics are limited in flexibility, making it harder to tailor reports for different stakeholders. Additionally, certain advanced features may require higher-tier plans, which might not be accessible for smaller teams with limited budgets.

Pros

I like how intuitive and easy to use Workable is, especially for teams with varying levels of tech experience. The collaborative features—like commenting, evaluating candidates, and managing workflows—make it seamless to involve hiring managers and HR in every step of the process. The integration with job boards and the ability to post with a few clicks is also a huge time-saver in addition to great customer support, security and value of money

Cons

Workable makes hiring easier, faster, and more organized. It’s a dynamic platform that empowers teams to make better hiring decisions with less hassle. Whether you're scaling quickly or simply improving recruitment practices, Workable helps you stay professional and productive.

Pros

Intuitive user interface makes posting jobs and managing candidates incredibly smooth. Smart automation features save time and minimize repetitive tasks. Excellent collaboration tools for hiring teams to stay aligned throughout the process. Insightful analytics help track hiring performance and improve strategies.

### "Great ATS with Metrics that are Improving"

August 20, 2025

4.0

Workable is a great tool that we use across the company to recruit, vet, and track all out candidates. I have not used many ATS systems, but of all the business operations systems we use throughout the company, Workable is one of the easiest and most used systems.

Pros

Workable is very user friendly with clean project management board-like layout. It is a great space to collaborate across our company with multiple users, and it has solid integrations to MS Outlook that make scheduling calls and interviews simple and streamlined,

Cons

The metrics to track things like time to hire and time to fill still need some work. While the reporting features are easy to use, the definitions and calculations are a little gray making it hard to lean into their quality across many jobs. The beta AI features also needs some additional development to increase accuracy.

### "Streamlined recruitment across international teams"

August 11, 2025

4.0

Workable has greatly streamlined our hiring process, making collaboration across (international) teams effortless and providing a secure, centralised platform for tracking candidates.

Pros

Workable makes it incredibly easy to collaborate across different (international) teams, keeping all recruitment-related tasks, communication, and candidate information in one central place. This has significantly improved our efficiency and reduced the risk of missing important updates.

Cons

While the automated responses feature is useful, the different scenarios are not yet fully aligned, which makes it challenging to use them consistently and correctly without manual adjustments.

y overall experience has been excellent. Workable has helped us reduce time-to-hire, improve coordination across international teams, and deliver a better experience to both candidates and internal stakeholders. It’s a reliable tool that grows with your team’s needs.

Pros

Workable makes it incredibly easy to manage a large number of open roles and candidates in one place. The user interface is clean and intuitive, collaboration with hiring managers is seamless, and the automation features (email templates, interview scheduling, etc.) save a lot of time. I also appreciate the integration with job boards and LinkedIn.

Cons

The reporting capabilities could be more robust—while the existing analytics are helpful, they lack flexibility for deeper custom insights. Also, the mobile experience could be improved for recruiters on the go.
