### "Workable review."

August 7, 2025

5.0

Great experience, it's a user-friendly platform and I can easily train any staff member hoe to use it when it comes to evaluating and shortlisting canddiates.

Pros

It's easy to handle, it provides a very good reporting feature, the job posting options and the integration with the free job portals in each country.

Cons

Accuracy of AI when evaluating candidates and matching them with the job requirements. I think that it needs some development.

### "Best ATS I have ever used. "

February 8, 2025

5.0

Hiring managers love it and will actually work in the system. It's obe software that you can literally start using the day you order it. It's so intuitive and easy to use. It's also like dirt cheap. The price is so low that I was a little hesitant to try it thinking that it couldn't possibly be a good as it is. I recommend Workable to everyone that will listen and have yet to have anyone be disappointed (I'm an HR consultant so I recommend it a lot). I actually get excited if I'm applying for a job and I can tell they use workable.

Pros

Workable is visually appealing, user friendly and so easy to manage.

Cons

It's such a good system with such amazing customer support that honestly I just wish that it was a full HRIS system instead of just an ATS. I guess if I was being nitpicky I'd make a more robust custom application but honestly it's pretty darn good.

### "Workable should be your first choice!"

February 11, 2025

5.0

Prompt Customer Support Iterative and progressive mindset

Pros

The support, engineering and product team have an iterative mindset which is needed in product/ SaaS business. In my 18 years of recruitment experience both in house and agencies, i have done more than 20 ATS demo - i really think Workable is great tool!

Cons

Its designed for in-house but they are several ways/ alternatives to make it work effectively for agencies. Mobile recruiting is not 100% there. I now run my own recruitment firm - I am always on the go, I need the full version of workable browser on my mobile. Their browser is slightly laggy even though my wifi is at a very fast speed.

### "Highly Recommend Workable!"

April 8, 2025

5.0

Overall, Workable has been a fantastic partner to work with. I can always count on their team to respond quickly and resolve issues promptly, which is incredibly important given how time-sensitive recruiting can be. I also appreciate how receptive they are to feedback—my input has directly contributed to feature improvements. On top of that, their pricing is very competitive and aligned with others in the market.

Pros

Workable's customer service is incredible. They are always quick to respond and follow through on my needs. I also appreciate that they stay up to date with trends and constantly upgrade their features.

Cons

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons. While I appreciate the platform’s versatility, I do wish there were more options for customizing certain structures and features. I understand the need to serve a wide range of businesses, but this sometimes makes it challenging to tailor the system to fit the specific reporting and operational needs of my company. Additionally, I’d love to see simple but impactful features added—like automated interview reminders for candidates. Lately, it feels like most of the development focus has been on the HRIS side, leaving the ATS features a bit behind.

### "Paul's Workable review - Talent Acquisition Specialist"

February 10, 2025

5.0

I have used Workable for over five years and have thoroughly enjoyed working in the program and with the support team at Workable. Workable is a leading ATS and is fast developing to become a leading Human Resources Information System. World class.

Pros

Workable has a great user interface and working in the program is very intuitive. It's links to free job board advertising and rankings in SEO. It's integration with Google suite. They are continuously developing new features for enhanced customer experience and functionality. Very reliable uptime.

Cons

Hmm, not much I can think of, but I have noticed that when a job is unarchived for cloning purposes, it appears on the internal referral platform even though it is not published. It can only be removed if the job is archived. This also applies to all other jobs that are unarchived and not published.

### "Reliable Platform"

August 12, 2025

3.0

Overall, Workable is a decent platform offering what you would need to get started with an ATS. It is suitable for a business of our size.

Pros

Relatively simple onboarding. Initial customer service support was quick and helpful, which helped us get started just in time.

Cons

The platform doesn't accommodate the full pre-boarding process. We've needed manual workarounds, which produce extra admin. We hoped this would be fully automated within the platform.

### "Workable - a great platform to use"

August 7, 2025

5.0

I've been enjoying workable, and I think for the price-point it offers a much better complete solution as opposed to its rivals.

Pros

Workable is easy to use platform. Fairly easy to learn, and offers a complete hr/recruitment solution.

Cons

Sometimes the platform can be a bit fiddly. For instance when creating AI/Automation commands some of these services sometimes don't work as intended.

### "Does the basics well but needs improvements in other areas to stand out"

August 1, 2025

3.0

It works well as an ATS but can be frustrating when looking at reporting, customisation or automation

Pros

\- Job creation is comprehensive and easy to follow - Good integrations with apps such as Metaview - Template function works well - Candidate profiles are well constructed

Cons

\- Reporting is limited and confusing - Complete lack of internal communication automations and candidate automations are just Workable templates - Quite limited when it comes to customising process and making bespoke changes

### "Workable Review"

February 12, 2025

4.0

Have been a W client for many years and overall the experience has been great!

Pros

I love almost everything about Workable. Ease of use. Candidate profiles are clear. Assessments were a nice basic addition. AI powered features is something we are starting to also use gradually. Support team is also fast and responsive.

Cons

Scorecards need to be more customizable (along with rating, scores). Candidate experience questionnaires per stage. General speed of product evolution could be faster.

### "Fit for purpose, easy to implement, user-friendly"

August 3, 2025

5.0

Super easy to get set up. Easy to create a site for applications. Right amount of customisation. Happy with it.

Pros

Customisable templates allow hiring managers to interview with ease. Easy flow from recruitment software to job boards.

Cons

No merge candidate functionality, which means if you export from LinkedIn to the ATS there can be double ups. The only option is to delete a profile is my understanding.

### "Workable is the go-to software for your HR needs!"

August 8, 2025

4.0

Overall, my experience with Workable has been positive. The platform is intuitive, easy to navigate, and regularly updated with useful features like the new Time-off option, which improves scheduling and team management. However, the lack of integration with most of our other software is a limitation, as it requires additional manual processes. Despite this, Workable remains a reliable and efficient tool for managing recruitment and HR tasks.

Pros

Workable is an easy-to-use, intuitive recruitment platform that keeps getting better with constant updates. I especially appreciate the new Time-off option, which adds convenience and efficiency to managing team schedules while maintaining its simple, user-friendly design.

Cons

While Workable is a great recruitment tool, its biggest drawback is that it does not integrate with most of the other software we use, which creates extra manual work and limits workflow efficiency.

### "Very good all around tool for HR teams"

August 1, 2025

5.0

Pros

Very easy to handle after you set it up, variety of features and multiple integrations with most of our tools.

Cons

A bit hard to manage it from administrative perspective, as a small change may have a big impact to the employee's database. It has a learning curve if you are switching from a competitor but once you do it, it is fairly simple.

### "Workable: A Fantastic Platform for Recruitment Success!"

January 29, 2025

5.0

Amazing! Workable has been a fantastic platform to use at work, and I’m proud to have become an expert in recruitment with it. I truly appreciate your team and all that you do—who knows, maybe one day I’ll have the chance to be a part of it! 😊

Pros

A fantastic selection of new products and features keeps me constantly updated. The intuitive interface makes navigation seamless, and the customer support team is always efficient and responsive.

Cons

The AI Assistant is still in development. To enhance its accuracy, it needs the capability to analyze resumes thoroughly. Additionally, it should be able to review responses to application form questions for a more comprehensive evaluation.

### "Good integration but needs better filters"

August 6, 2025

4.0

Overall, Workable is a solid service that meets most of our requriements. The key challenge is that compared to other ATS platforms, the filtering function is not as easy to use.

Pros

\- Use Workable sporadically for creating a pool of candidates to hire from - Good centralised platform for intergrating with other systems and platforms - Easy to contact candidates and organise interview processes - Haven't had any issues that required customer suppport - Easy to set up new job ads - no security concerns so far - We get what we need for the amount we pay for it - Easy to collaborate with team members in hiring process

Cons

\- Not easy to filter candidate applications in the pool - UI not the easiest to do large scale filtering

August 7, 2025

5.0

Excellent experience. It's one of the best ATS I have ever used, it's simple and straight forward, it has all the features we need and it allow us to automatize a lot of processes.

Pros

I'd like the clear and easy to use interface. Also, it allow us to streamline lot of processes, such as organizing interviews & calls with the candidates. It's also very friendly for team collaboration, as it's easy to share candidates and leave evaluations for them in the different stages of the process. The customer support is always very helpful and fast when it comes to solve incidents.

Cons

If I have to say something, it would be probably the AI for CV filtering. I don't find it very useful and accurate.

September 3, 2025

5.0

Pros

I’m a huge fan — Workable is super easy to set up and use. It enables our small team to manage many hiring processes semi-automatically, which saves us a lot of time. Setting it up took just a couple of hours, and I can fully recommend it.

Cons

One limitation is that scheduling links can’t be changed afterwards. It would also be great to have a feature to rank or rate candidates (e.g., with stars) in the applied stage. That said, these are minor issues compared to the overall value.

### "Good product- update offer letters."

April 1, 2025

4.0

Overall it's a great system but I would love updates to the offer letters.

Pros

Easy to use. I also like the automatic email feature while moving candidates through the process. Saves time!

Cons

The offer letters! Our old system had great features for the offer letters. We could keep an offer in "draft" until we were ready to send. We could see when a candidate opened the offer letter. It's very time consuming and tedious when you need to make edits to an offer letter. Offer letters aren't always cut and dry. Some offers need to have additional information added so it would be nice to be able to add information without having to download the template each time.

### "The Most User Friendly ATS software!"

June 23, 2025

5.0

I like how user-friendly it is, and I have recommended the same to a couple of my new clients as well. The only thing is they should post the positions on the job relevant sites

Pros

1\. Use of AI to filter candidates 2. The way categories are created from sources to hired 3. Video Assessments are a plus 4. User friendly

Cons

1\. There should be a way to repost or refresh the postings that are 2 weeks old 2. In the filter option, they should add a section to choose the day, week, or month the candidate applied. This helps to pull out a report to know that in a specific week how many total candidates applied. 3. They should allow to bulk move candidates from one job to the other.
