My overall experience using Zoho Recruit has been really positive. I found the tool to be easy to use, intuitive and feature-rich. The jobs board feature has allowed me to post and manage various jobs simultaneously. The ATS has made my job very easy and my database is now nice and clean.

I have been familiar with Zoho Recruit for quite some time. Many of my colleagues and other business partners use big branded and highly promoted alternatives, where I really can't understand why? I find that none of the others that I have used are any match to Zoho Recruit, not only in terms of functionality but also pricing, Zoho Recruit is incredibly affordable. Furthermore, their support team are very responsive to answer any questions or provide suggestions on how you can maximise the efficiency of the program.
