### "Excellent product"

April 19, 2016

5.0

I've been using Shortlist for over a year now, and have found in extremely useful tool for managing our agency's workforce. I've recommended Shortlist not just for my own company but to other teams that I now consult with. What it comes down to is that it solves a major issue for me when it comes to managing your workforce in one central location. Before Shortlist came around, there wasn't really any decent options to solve this. I notice also that the Shortlist team has made major steps forward with the UI/product design over the last few months. It's looking great and the new clean dashboard design will be a welcomed addition for our team.

Pros

\- I think value for money - you cannot go past this. It's priced extremely well for software in this category. - Nice design. Lets face it - most of these tools look like they've been design and built by the finance team! Shortlist looks more like an Apple product. - Great customer service. When we first tried it out we were having some small issues onboarding , but Shortlist got straight back to me and helped us immensely.

### "Database organization"

August 18, 2023

4.0

Fantastic customer service! I could easily book a one-on-one customer support session online and ask questions. I never felt like an idiot asking questions, I was always taken seriously, and everything was explained really well. I feel that the DropBox Sign (previously HelloSign) works really well and I love that I can get an email every time an Agreement is filled out.

Pros

I like that your Customer Service is so responsive and easy to meet with. I never felt like my questions are ever unanswered and I've had several brainstorming sessions via video chat that have been super helpful. I like that I can manipulate the filters to my liking.

Cons

I dislike how the resumes require downloading. I much prefer when they are embedded for a quick view. I now have a work around but it's very frustrating to click the back button and lose your search results. The weird glitch with the "sharing profile" option that made me lose half my database temporarily was a bit panic-inducing. I don't really use that feature (I think I thought it was something else), so it's not a dealbreaker that was just a tough day. I do like that I can change the filters but they can't be used again with the same name, which doesn't help with new versions of a database overhaul. I wish the "Skills" section could be manipulated on our end. For example, it doesn't have all the languages we need to list for our super vendors, so I have to create a tagging workaround. I also wish the "Skills" section was more user-friendly on the user side. I also wish I could make a more elaborate Workflow that could branch a little better. I also tried implementing Zapier with Worksuite and/or SmartSheet but it was too limiting for what I needed to do.

### "WorkSuite - Is it up to scratch?"

January 25, 2024

1.0

Not good. No customer support. Send an email and await a response. Not acceptable.

Pros

The cost. Inexpensive for a basic database.

Cons

It is a manual system which needs overhauling to suit the needs of contractor management.

### "Worksuite has given me the ability to focus on other aspects of my job"

November 29, 2021

5.0

Distributing payments internationally was an issue before using Worksuite. It also speeds up distribution of domestic payments as well. Management of freelancers has been divvied out between several teams and the documentation is automated. The customer service has been generally great.

Pros

The payments system has helped so much. That combined with the ability to integrate with Salesforce has saved me hours of processing time every day. Additionally, automating the onboarding of our freelancers has been so helpful and taken the stress off of me as our company doubled over the past year and our freelancer base multiplied by at least 20. Worksuite has helped me reduce the amount of data entry I do, and allowed me to focus on other things.

Cons

When starting to learn the software it was very overwhelming and complicated. There is a lot to learn and understand about the software and its many intricacies and capabilities. Also, searching through the freelancers in the onboarding page is very difficult and I sometimes have to scroll through 100's of freelancers before I find the one I'm looking for.

### "Great value for money"

August 10, 2023

4.0

The customer service has been amazing and whatever we have asked they have done for us.

Pros

I like the onboarding capabilities the most. We need an easy way for people to apply to work with us. It is easy to see what stage everyone is at. It has saved us many hours compared to doing it on email.

Cons

Sometimes it is harder to navigate and get our team to update it. I would like to highlight what I have added to someones profile vs what they have done themselves under skillsets.

### "Overall, the Shortlist team has exceeded my expectations! I look forward to my interactions w/ them."

October 28, 2017

5.0

\-Effective process techniques for recruiting, onboarding, growing, and managing our network of partners -Enables our business to scale

Pros

\-The Shortlist software enables us to do our business and be successful -User interface (UI) is intuitive to use -Friendly and personable customer support, they want to help us grow (awesome!) -Open to accommodating and exploring our needs (e.g. updated search functionality based on our needs & feedback) -Shortlist team has the technical capabilities to support our industry-specific needs -Most of our users accept and fill out their profile in <24hrs of us sending the invitation (Indicates this process doesn't take too much of their time and is easy to work through)

Cons

Not much to note here, but I'll get into the weeds so I can provide constructive feedback: The process for adding a partner to multiple groups can take a little more time than I would like. Besides that, setting up a partner profile takes a minimal amount of my time, which I value.

### "Helpful automated workflow tool"

June 21, 2023

5.0

Transparency, automation, consistency in process

Pros

Coming from a decentralized, non-automated process to worksuite has been VERY helpful for our team. The team needs the transparency and automation to be the most productive/efficient.

Cons

There are a few views that feel unnatural and I dont quite know how to navigate or find the same information 2x, but I know that the info is there, but I just need to search sometimes...

### "Super customizable, perfect for our unique business needs."

November 25, 2021

5.0

Obviously the platform itself is great, but if we're being honest - a great product is nothing without a great team. We are lucky enough to have \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] as our Solutions Architect and he is great at listening to what our actual needs are and then instantly and effortlessly piecing together what the strategy and execution would look like. You can literally see his brain working as you explain the different paint points that you are trying to solve for. Side note: I've had the pleasure of dealing with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] as well, he was equally brilliant and on top of things. If you ask me, the Worksuite team is definitely hoarding all of the top talent.

Pros

Worksuite doesn't do the "one-size-fits-all" approach. Nearly every feature is developed in such an easy-to-use, yet highly customizable way that it's kind of mind blowing. At the moment, we utilize their platform for automating a large part of onboarding for each of our independent contractors (think gig economy), and then maintaining compliance. I can see us utilizing more features as our needs increase which is another thing that makes this platform a huge plus. Moving our processes to Worksuite was a strategic move that will make scaling a piece of cake.

Cons

It would be nice if we were able to have a kanban/ board type of view for managing workflows.

### "Working with Worsuite"

July 7, 2023

4.0

My overall experience is great! Its truly helped manage my contractors and all their work.

Pros

Worksuite is easy to use. The features like creating projects and tasks is easy to use. I also know its being used to onboard certain people which is great. It's really easy to approve hours and generate invoices. It has the option to share files, but I don't really use that.

Cons

The features that are missing include formatting in the description box. I would like to be able to add links, have multi layer bullets, numbered bullets. It would be great to paste into the box with included format (right now it paste as plain text, which is annoying to fix). Also, under tasks, where we see all tasks, it would be AMAZING to filter the list by contractor.

### "The perfect tool for handling a lot of people"

November 19, 2020

5.0

As the only content manager at the team I am responsible for around 100 people. I have to hire, onboard new talent, and give out tasks to the already existing team of translators and voice talents and run projects parallel for many languages. Shortlist made this insanely huge and complex task mindblowingly easy. Steps that I had to do 30-50 times per project can now be done with 3 clicks. The site is super easy to use, the contractors had no problem applying, registering or later using the site and its functions.

Pros

Using Shortlist made it so much easier to handle our whole translator and voice talent team. I could move away from emails and have everything in one place from job ads, hiring, actual projects and task management to invoicing. I don't have to search back anymore in endless emails, every person and project has all the information on one site. I also love how many things can be integrated, especially the Slack notifications. We also got outstanding support from the Shortlist team, from setting up our account to monthly check-ins and personalisation.

Cons

A bit more bulk editing options would be great for the tasks, I have to enter and edit info one-by-one now for all.

### "Impressed over and over again"

September 1, 2020

5.0

The Shortlist team has gone above and beyond many times. Most recently I had a few urgent questions that I needed answered and Soobin Kang personally called me outside of typical business hours and made sure I got everything I needed figured out. He continues to check in and make sure that my experience is nothing but the best. The product is amazing, but the customer service is even better. I can't say enough great things about the Shortlist team.

Pros

It is like a dream come true. I needed a product like this for many months and finally decided on Shortlist. Shorltist is everything I needed from a contractor management software. they keep improving and listening to their customers and I am always impressed.

Cons

The cons, not many cons here. The only thing I would say is its so secure that sometimes It can take a little bit to log in if you forgot your password like myself:) But I ultimately look at this as a positive as Shortlist is holding lots of sensitive information. So security is a huge plus.

### "Highly recommended"

September 7, 2018

5.0

We managed to bring our APAC freelance team onboard (over 400 individuals) within a three month period. This enabled us to align all documentation, share resources, identify gaps, distribute work in a much more efficient and organized manner. The whole experience with the Customer Success team was a huge positive! Solution focused, responsive and overall an incredibly nice team to work with.

Pros

User friendly, great customer support, provides innovative business solutions. Being able to see our freelance talent's portfolio in one easy-to-use platform was such an advantage for our teams to ensure the right talent was engaged.

Cons

I would love to see more reporting functionality - but I know it's on the way - once that is in place this is a brilliant software for any company to bring on-board to manage freelance talent

### "Great Team, Product, and Process! "

April 15, 2020

5.0

The overall experience with shortlist was excellent! \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] were great communicators and was very responsive to my requests. The team was a joy to work with. I had requested a calendar feature as part of my POC, and the team spoke to their product team to make it happen.

Pros

The onboarding feature was the most impactful. At our company, we used Shortlist for vendor onboarding and the team helped us developed our first proof of concept. The feature helped streamline our onboarding process for new vendors in a very user-friendly way. This feature received great feedback from various teams in the organization.

Cons

Shortlist had many great features that we requested for. If I have to name a con, I wish there's more flexibility in customization.

Reason for choosing Worksuite

It was our cheapest option for pilot testing. Going with Shortlist also has benefits in these areas: easy maintenance, great local team in SF, semi-customizable front-end, has a lot of a-la-carte features we needed for POC. Our only concern was if the platform will be around 5-10 years from now, but Shortlist seems to have some great traction with over 70,000 users and clients like L'oreal and Microsoft.

5.0

The team have been excellent and really accommodating to our requirements. Using Shortlist will allow us to better manage and engage with our Partners but it will also impact our internal teams giving them the visibility needed and helping them to deliver for our customers.

Pros

Firstly it's so simple to use. I also love the fact that unlike a lot of systems, it's so customisable which will be important to a lot of companies.

Cons

Still in implementation so nothing so far

Pros

Meets our business needs. Gives us a good database to store out contract workforce and makes hiring from that database easier. Allows us to automate payroll management, contracting, and onboarding.

### "Too expensive. clunky. contractor's complained"

September 7, 2021

1.0

We tried it. and let it go. It was too frustrating/expensive and we realized we could make our CRM do all the most important features of project management and not spend any more money on it.

Pros

the best thing was contractors always knew how much they'd get paid at any give time for any given project.

Cons

It was expensive. $3/contractor - even if you were only paying $30.00 - Also, there were huge delays between submitting payroll and contractors receiving their money.

Reason for choosing Worksuite

We originally tried it from a recommendation from a colleague, but after many months we realized it wasn't working for us.

Shortlist is a great way to manage all aspects of the freelance and vendor management process. From screening and on-boarding through to sending a project (and all the communication in between) and payment. It will save time on the administrating the sourcing process and make sure no good partners slip through the cracks.

### "Good from the freelancer side - hard from the other side."

January 28, 2019

3.0

I love it for the project management side, but until the software simplifies the payment system I likely won't be able to use it much more.

Pros

I love how, as a freelancer, I can write messages to my employer and provide them with files that I upload. Plus, the Shortlist system sends notifications everytime I make an update. This means I don't have to remind my employer that I'm done with a project.

Cons

We couldn't get the payments to work. As a result, we only used Shortlist as a project management system and not a full-service payment system.

### "Exceptional Customer Service/Great company"

August 25, 2018

5.0

When our previous payment provider was acquired, we searched for a new company that could provide both payment processing and an onboarding/management system for our outside contractors. Working with Shortlist has exceeded our expectations in every way. The Shortlist leadership team from the top down is passionate about their product and has gone above and beyond to make sure our customer experience has been positive and successful. Working in finance over 20 years, I have never experienced a system implementation/integration with the continued level of support and attention that Shortlist has given our company. I highly recommend Shortlist!

Pros

Ease of use and ability to integrate with our internal platform Demonstrated ease of onboarding and payment tracking for our outside contractors Reporting features

Cons

Have not had any difficulties navigating thus far

### "The stuff Marketers' Dreams are made of...."

May 13, 2016

5.0

Shortlist has finally solved the age old issue of how you allow Marketers to focus on being creative and driving sales whilst providing both CMO's and CPO's confidence that the supply chain is as efficient as possible.

Pros

The team behind Shortlist.co clearly just get "it", from concept through execution to client services they have taken a very smart and considered approach

Cons

Like I said in the subject title, it's the stuff Marketers' dreams are made of. No cons!
