Performance of iSmartRecruit Across Market Features

iSmartRecruit Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most about iSmartRecruit is how much time it saves. Features like resume parsing, automated emails, and candidate tracking reduce a lot of manual tasks, allowing us to focus more on engaging with candidates rather than juggling spreadsheets.

Like

It is very simple to use, most people can learn how to use it intuitively.

Like

The ability to monitor where applicants are at in the process is so simple and efficient. The dashboard makes it easy to track. It is also customizable and because we have unique onboarding requirements, this has been very helpful compared to other products we have used in the past. We also like the ability to implement assessments or questionnaires that can help better sift through applicants to ensure we have the right people.

Dislike

The one thing I dislike most about iSmartRecruit is the mobile experience. While the system works on mobile devices it isn't as smooth as the desktop version.

Dislike

Some of the things I dislike include the weak reporting capabilities and data collection compared to others, the interface seems outdated, and it can be very slow sometimes.

Dislike

Honestly, there is sometimes too much data that a small HR team doesn't have time to sort through. Some of the reports can be complicated and we need more support to understand how we can better use the information. We'd like to see more improvements to AI features. The nature of our business is very human centered, so there is an element missing when evaluating candidates and using processes driven by AI.

    Efficient Applicant Tracking Enhances Hiring Process for Small HR Teams

    5.0
    Aug 19, 2025
    iSmartRecruit has helped to significantly improve the applicant experience. We have a small HR team responsible for hiring a lot of entry-level positions. A day or even a few hours can make all the difference when working with candidates so an easy, efficient user process is a must. The company is also very responsive and willing to address issues or make small changes to suit our needs.
