We have been using Zoho Recruit again after a few years of using another ATS. It currently works for our needs as we can easily work collaboratively with our clients due to the guest setup and client portals.

“Good managment features, but lacks customization to follow the companies image”

Intergrations went without a hitch. Interface is fast and non-IT colleagues can use it effectively. A letdown is the bare bones level of customization for the look and feel of the external facing components like the Job board. A custom CSS would be simple and effective, but there is nothing of the type.

“Offer a range of functionalities at an affordable cost, targeted primarily at small businesses.”

I recently started using this software, and overall, it's been a positive experience. The software offers a wide range of functionalities that cover almost all the modules a small business might need, making it quite versatile. Despite being affordable, it does not compromise on the quality of features, which is impressive. However, the support system is a bit of a drawback. The process of emailing for support and waiting for a callback can be time-consuming, especially when immediate assistance is needed. Additionally, the lack of detailed guides means users have to explore the software on their own or rely on video tutorials, which can be cumbersome. The integration of the various modules isn't very clear, which could pose challenges for users.
