Centralized management of all recruiting activity -- managing multiple job sites is a huge pain and it's nice to have all prospect information centrally available. Previously I was storing all resumes in a shared folder that was hard to search and almost impossible to classify properly. Building your own careers page is just another software asset to maintain and buying third party software is yet another thing to manage. It's nice to offload a piece of non-core business technology and focus on the stuff that matters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's hard to type a forty character version of 'nothing'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Alongside is very user-friendly. It is easy for someone who is mildly tech-savvy to hop on and understand where to go to find the information they need. It is wonderful for teams to be able to all review candidates and leaves notes in order to proceed to the next step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not a dislike but it would be great to be able to customize what information is pulled on the candidate screen. For example to see highlights instead of last job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The help docs were excellent in helping me think about and plan out how I would go about the hiring process. The email reminders and updates about applications were helpful i staying on top of processing incoming candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't remember anything that I didn't like. I didn't encounter any bugs or confusions. Great user interface. Setup was easy and painless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how simple Alongside makes the process of creating a job posting, generating application questions and posting it on job boards! This makes any HR experts life a lot easier by having one simple platform to control all your hiring needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that there is limited job board to post on and that there are no coding question templates available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We love that we can get an understanding of our full pipeline of candidates in one, transparent place. No matter what platform we post our jobs ads on, we have the ability to use this as a decision-making tool at all levels of the business, and easily have different department managers make selections and suggestions right in Alongside. It has been extremely helpful in streamlining our hiring process, especially as a startup where we didn't always have an HR manager at hand to organize candidates themselves!

The only reason I wouldn't recommend this is if a startup didn't have any initial cash-flow to purchase this and were only in need of one-off type hiring posts. There definitely needs to be a bit of volume you are dealing with to use the tool to its full potential. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like the most is being able to see all my applicants at a glance and having the whole hiring process more or less in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to opt in and out I have found difficult at times. Being a startup who's hiring process has severe ebbs and flows at times so being able to put a subscription on pause being easier would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
All applicants are in the same place. Easy to search for applicants. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The new dashboard doesn't provide me with information that I need. I just have to click more to get to the info I want. Also, dislike that the "create job" button is a small + sign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to post and publish my JDs. Love the ability to have you post on multiple portals on our behalf. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hard to navigate between multiple prospects. As cheezy as it sounds, I'd like a more tinder-like experience where I can shortlist people before diving deeper into them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
