What do you like best about Pinpoint?

As part of the recruitment team, we use Pinpoint daily and I find it an incredibly useful tool to manage day to day recruitment.

I particularly like the fact you can add comments to both jobs and candidates and you can create sub talent pipelines. Pinpoint also has a good level of customer support with a designated liaision whereby we can book time if required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

When a role is filled, you are no longer able to change the team that can view the role.

Anonymous CV sifitng is too restrcited or not restricted enough - not flexible enough Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pinpoint is allowing us to track and communicate with candidates in one place with ability to leave comments which is highly beneficial when there is more than 1 person in the team as they can see what communications have been had.

It is also allowing us to diversify recruitment by using the anonomising candidates function Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

Pinpoint is a fantastic system that is being improved on frequently. Pinpoint is highly customisable, which is very important for my team. Processes such as requisitions and getting roles approved are seamless and easy to monitor. I also love the candidate view, especially during interviews, it makes it easy to view CVs, collect interview notes and check candidate information easily.

The ability to create the website is also outstanding as well as the onboarding platform.

Pinpoint worked extremly hard to support with integration to our HR system - this was not an easy process for us but this was absolutely not due to Pinpoint.

The support provided is outstanding, i've never waited longer than 24 hours for response to an issue, the team go above and beyond to help and even seek support from the dev team which is very impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

There's nothing that i particularly dislike about the system although there are room for improvements which the teams are working on such as:

Insight hub - small but for reporting it would be useful to select things like YTD.

Candidate surveys - This little customisation here, it would be great to send out fuller candidate surveys to collect more data. As well as sending out different surveys depending on the stage which the candidate reached. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prior to Pinpoint our process was extremly manual, Pinpoint is helping us to turn that around resulting in more of our time being spent direct sourcing. Equally the system is supporting with candidate attraction, through the engaging website, job adverts and comms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

I chose to implement Pinpoint when I started my new role because software has been built with a lot of thought behind it. It has clearly been informed by people who have had their struggles with systems that are unintuitively built, frustrating to use, and require multiple clicks to achieve a single action. Everything from creating job descriptions to having sharing links on the same job page make it super easy to find whatever you need within Pinpoint. One of the best features is the automatic creation of calendar events in the interviewer's diary, confidentially i.e. no publicly visible names/details, with a link to the candidate's Pinpoint profile when a candidate books a timeslot. This is automatically done by the candidate who has direct access to the interviewer's integrated calendar, and then the candidate also automatically receives an invitation with the video call link. This is the most seamless interview arranging process I've ever experienced. You are able to move multiple candidates between stages and communicate with multiple candidates as a time all with a couple of clicks. Finally, you can request references with one click because Pinpoint integrates directly with our referencing sotware. I cannot speak highly enough about Pinpoint and the amazing CS team - I use the tool everyday and would not use anything different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

There is no ability to format text when submitting comments about candidates. This makes it challenging to read any lengthy notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

Our hiring managers have given excellent feedback on the platform, and like how intuitive and centralised everything is.

We love the platform as it is, and we're already looking at what else we can do with the additional features Pinpoint offers, that we haven't yet explored.

The implementation and integration process has been incredibly smooth, with any blockers being on our side, and Rachel Larkin is a star, having been a fantastic source of knowledge and support throughout the whole project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

We are only a month into our go-live, but as of yet, there is nothing that we have come across that has been a downside without a workaround. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

PinpointPinpoint has transformed manual processes into automated and streamlined workflows, meaning we as a Talent team can focus on doing what we do best without being bogged down in admin-heavy tasks, and hiring managers have a self-serve approach to updates, information and data.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

-Key integrations - Job postings, LinkedIn Recruiter RSC, Docusign (multiple signatories)

-Excellent self-scheduling tools for managing volume screening/interviews

-Editable recruitment pipelines, interview kits, knock-out questions

-Excellent after-market support - immediate responses to tech queries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

-Like most ATS platforms, clear candidate progression metrics depend on creating the correct interview templates at the front end - i.e, differentiating between a Screening call, 1st or 2nd stage interview. This can be done easily though and the implementation team provide excellent support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pinpoint is allowing a transparent recruitment process with high number of stakeholder users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

It's an empowering ATS that enables TA professionals to drive candidate and hiring manager experience as well as use data to drive change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

I have honestly found that there's nothing I dislike. Any tweaks/frustrations that we had always appear to have a solution whether that's through educating us further or product development.

If pushed to name something, I would say we have a number of templates in play and we'd like to be able to archive those Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

First and foremost, the reduction in our admin was immediately visible. This allowed us to work more effectively on the candidate experience and educating the hiring managers in the use of the system. Our time and effort was used in the right way.

The fact we can implement so much on the system is a real benefit. We don't have to raise tickets, do anything by committee; we really can make the system suit what we need. It's agile, innovative and always improving Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emily Newton-Smith of Pinpoint

Thank you so much for the review, Sam. We're so happy that you love Pinpoint! We've passed on your feedback about the templates to your Customer Success Manager—thank you for sharing.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

Pinpoint allows a equitable approach to our recruitment process that helps reduce bias that can occur. As I have begun to learn Pinpoint, I have utilized their Customer Support and Services. I had a question in regards to a feature that did not seem to be working. Over the course of 36 hours, I had 4 people reviewing and communicating with me about the problem, progress, and notification of my messages and questions. They communicated as a team and were able to handle my inquiry with knowledge. It showed they collaborated as a team to accomplish one customer's inquiry with knowledge, expertise, and consistent communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

Some minor features are limited with the use of redaction of name and contact information, but it is still highly functional beyond these minor inconveniences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

Oneway I would like to track applicants from the last time I logged in is the tab that mentions the amount of applicants since my last log in. When I clicked on it, depsite the number saying "15," there were no applicants to be shown. When I brought this to their attention, they immediately responded, sent it to IT and came back with a response within 12 hours. Great to work with and communication was robust Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emily Newton-Smith of Pinpoint

Thank you so much for the review, Melanie. We're so happy that you love Pinpoint and our brilliant customer service and support team members. Thank you for your kind feedback, we've shared it with the team.

What do you like best about Pinpoint?

I recently had the pleasure of using pinpoint and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. As someone who has come from an outdated and clunky system, for me, this platform stands out for its efficiency, user-friendliness, and overall effectiveness.

My favourite thing about pinpoint is their innovation, they really do think of everything and if they haven't just yet, you can guarantee it will be on their radar. They are always happy to take on board feedback, and their chat function gives us quick response times within minutes to various queries.

The implementation was quick, easy and thought out as well as being tailored to our needs for a small TA team.

On a final note, their reporting is fantastic. Really in-depth stuff at a click of a button! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pinpoint?

My only 2 improvements, would be their HR system integrations as we didn't find a solution that would work with our current provider (this is something we discussed at the demo) as well as their option for automated referencing to new starters, this was via bolt on rather than in the system itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pinpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Candidate management - this brought more automation, where there is a volume piece of recruitment this was a big help for us.

2. Reporting - Our business did not have a clear oversight on our reporting, Pinpoint helped us combat this.

3. User friendly system for candidates and users alike - this has helped with buy in for the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
