Avature reviews

No competition in this space. Avature is in a league of their own!

Opmerkingen: Willingness to work toward solutions to any situation! Flexible technology that is continuing to invest in development to stay a leader in the HR tech space. The fact that this company is privately held and is investing more in development than in SALES, they are focusing on being the BEST IN CLASS rather than selling the most. Refreshing!

Pluspunten:

Flexibility and ease of configuration for each business strategy and situation in any industry. There are literrally NO limitations. Avature will work with any client to enable their vision.

Minpunten:

Challenging for Tech Support to respond quickly, as each client's instance is unique and the support specialist has to "learn" each instance before addressing an issue, in most cases.

Avature Review, from the Perspective of a BI Analyst

Pluspunten:

My role involves creating custom reports and dashboards in Avature. The system’s capabilities are truly impressive! We can map fields from various forms and data sources to develop almost any reporting solution. What I appreciate most about Avature is its ability to be tailored to unique processes, allowing for detailed and specific reporting. I also really appreciate the people who work at Avature.

Minpunten:

What I find most frustrating about Avature is the lengthy process for adding new enhancements, and sometimes, requests are outright denied.

Possibilities are endless

Opmerkingen: Brilliant enterprise level ATS and CRM, with strong customer success and account management.

Pluspunten:

Best configurability of an ATS for enterprise level clients

Minpunten:

Takes considerable knowledge to get the best out of it

ATS - Financial Industry

Opmerkingen: Overall, as long as you have clearly defined requirements and vision of the future-state and have dedicated resources to thoroughly test the application, you might want to give Avature a try. Avature is a powerful engine if you know what you are looking for and if you are able to establish the right way of communicating this to the implementation team.

Pluspunten:

Flexibility to solve for "modern" times problems

Minpunten:

Lack of QA from the Avature implementation team Changes being pushed that are not well managed with users. Assigned Account Managers should make sure clients are aware of the change, when it is coming and how that impacts functionality of the solution. Easter-egg hunting syndrome. We do not know we have certain features (and it only takes them a minute to enable it) until we ask or raise a struggle to Avature. Could be a frustrating experience.

Avature Review

Opmerkingen: It's been good, especially when it comes with connecting to newer coworkers.

Pluspunten:

I enjoy how interactive this platform is.

Minpunten:

It can be a little sticky to use. The interface looks a little outdated, and navigating it can be difficult.

Great Fan of Avature

Opmerkingen: Avature offers a robust platform for talent management and recruitment, providing customizable solutions that enhance user experience. Its intuitive interface and powerful analytics facilitate efficient workflows, making it a valuable tool for organizations aiming to streamline hiring processes and improve candidate engagement.

Pluspunten:

Avature is very reliable and customizable in sense on the workflows

Minpunten:

the feature request will take time to be actioned on

I love Avature

Opmerkingen: my overall expereince with avature is one word. Exceptional. the ease of use, the ability to set the workflows up to suit our company, our account rep [sensitive content hidden] is AMAZING.

Pluspunten:

it puts all the aspects of our recruiting and onboarding in one system

Minpunten:

the only thing i dont like about avature is that we did not find it sooner

Avature Review

Opmerkingen: Overall, it's been a positive experience so far. The certification equips the relevant team member to effectively implement changes in line with business requirements.

Pluspunten:

The system has significantly streamlined our processes, improving overall efficiency and reducing manual workloads. It has enhanced workflow automation, allowing us to complete tasks faster and with fewer errors. This has resulted in smoother operations and better coordination across team.

Minpunten:

- Other tabs do not load content until they are actively opened, which causes delays. It would improve efficiency if the tabs preloaded content to reduce waiting times when switching between them - The dashlet currently opens within the same tab, which can make navigation less efficient. It would be beneficial if the dashlet (list indicator) opened in a new tab to allow users to easily switch between different lists without navigating back and forth within the dashboard.

Impressive, excited for future developments

Opmerkingen: Very positive, able to deliver key business functionality. Would like some more technical features.

Pluspunten:

Avature is highly modular, extensible, and scalable. It's a great mixture of self-service and admin driven features. I'm impressed with how the ongoing enhancements close functionality gaps, and open up new use cases. The Avature team is clearly committed to enhancing the product and solving user pain points.

Minpunten:

There are some bugs with things like lists and table fields in records. I would also like to see more enhancements to the custom report builder functionality. One example would be a custom color palette for visuals. Another would be some additional functions (mean), and the ability to nest aggregate functions which proves to be a limit for advanced analytics. I also think there's an opportunity for natural language processing (NLP) driven analytic and list capabilities.

Highly Customizable Platform

Opmerkingen: My overall experience with Avature has been positive. I have used it for the last 8 years and have found it to be user-friendly and effective in managing our recruitment and employee data. It has provided us with the flexibility to meet our specific needs and has empowered us to be more self-sufficient through its robust certification and training programs.

Pluspunten:

What I like most about Avature is its flexibility and customizability. It’s not a “box solution,” but rather a highly adaptable platform that allows us to tailor it to our unique processes. Additionally, the ability to get certified and become self-sufficient in the system makes it easy to manage and maximize its value internally.

Minpunten:

Because Avature is so customizable, it can create a steeper learning curve for new users who aren’t familiar with its extensive configuration options. This can be challenging when onboarding new team members, as they often need additional support to understand the system’s capabilities.

Avature Review

Opmerkingen: I have used Avature for about 3 years now and I am still learning new techniques and features that make my everyday life a lot simpler and more efficient

Pluspunten:

Easy to use and there are so many features

Minpunten:

The only thing I have for a con is I wish there was a way to be able to send a translated email, (English to Spanish specifically), individually and not in mass actions. Like an as need basis.

Avature Review

Opmerkingen: I work as a candidate engagement PM that also doubles as an Avature Admin. We use Avature primarily as a CRM. Due to business needs I was unable to attend all certification courses, but needed to operate in my capacity. I found Avature highly capable & effective of managing what I needed, but was often taking a majority of my time researching to find answers to my troubleshooting needs.

Pluspunten:

It is a powerful tool to build robust ATS/CRM platform/s for your business. One user can manage vast amounts of capabilities to ensure top quality candidate engagement and data management.

Minpunten:

It can be difficult to navigate all of the capabilities and time consuming to find assistance. When building digital processes or solutions, I need to be able to find my answers quickly. I found the Avature training library difficult to navigate when seeking solutions, and don't always have time to wait for responses to customer service requests. Access to a technical or process manual would be a nice feature.

Powerful, mature, and flexible system

Opmerkingen: Overall, I am very content with our Avature platform. It's helped us create many automations and efficiencies.

Pluspunten:

The incredible amount of flexibility. There's many different challenges you can throw at Avature, and almost all of them can be solved. It's really powerful and mature.

Minpunten:

Because there's so much you can do, the learning curve is quite step. Also, features have extended capabilities, but it does happen every now and then that you are stuck with a trade-off, as every workaround you find has at least some limitation. Albeit often limited, it's often a shame that you can get close to perfection, but then something obvious could be missing. This happens especially with new functionality, where the first release is very limited.

One step to be the best!

Opmerkingen: I like it the way it serve as an advancement of candidate data storage, and platform to co-work on mandate with recruiter globally.
But it feels like there is a lot potential on candidate engagement, and integration with other platform to be unleashed. In another word, good job to Avature that we're relying more on Avature than other applications, and hope Avature could incorporate other configurations soon.

Pluspunten:

Its configuration design is very relevant to recruiter - how we split pipeline/company/ people and etc, and therefore it's easy to understand and use.

Minpunten:

It doesn't seem to connect with other platform (LinkedIn, Workday in China) well, which leads to a lot of manual works importing and exporting data.

Great customisation and Functionality

Opmerkingen: Very good, as the system lead, I'll be advising my business to stick with Avature for the long run

Pluspunten:

Incredibly configurable, when you ask if something is possible the answer is almost yes. It also allows the system leads (like me) to self-service a lot of changes. The Admin UI is very intuitive and there's heaps of learning content and support.

Minpunten:

At times we hit pinch points with centralised teams on projects and changes. We only need to engage with these teams for certain large projects and integrations.

Avature is almost unlimited in realizing processes

Pluspunten:

The modern technology and flexibility in it´s configuration allows users to dream and design big.

Minpunten:

The process for activating new modules could be improved.

Avature ATS/CRM are top notch!

Opmerkingen: Overall, our company is very satisfied with Avature. We have very positive end user experiences for all types of users which was our goal. Like any software, there are challenges but the positives outweigh the negatives twofold.

Pluspunten:

The ability to customize to meet our specific business needs. You would think with a SaaS you would be limited, but that has not been our experience with Avature. The ability to make updates to fields, workflows, views, portals, forms, templates, etc. is very easy and does not require a technical expert to make the changes.

Minpunten:

One of the challenges we face is keeping up with the enhancements and fully understanding how to use the enhancement in our instance. Some are very self explanatory and the explanations provided by Avature are easy to understand. Others, may require some additional training to determine if the enhancement is truly something you want to apply to your instance.

New to Avature! It's Dynamic!

Opmerkingen: Overall, it has been very positive! While we are still in the implementation stage we have been impressed with option to customize just about everything we need to be specific to our use case. We are excited for how this change to Avature will impact our team immediately and in the long term!

Pluspunten:

Automation, ability to customize to your business need and configure processes in multiple ways. All of the features and functionality to help you work smarter and not harder.

Minpunten:

We cannot rename certain fields/sections or even folder/records to be a name that works for us. For instance, ideally we would have called a record/folder 'Restaurant' but were not able to do that. Access to certain system permissions without completing a certification class.

Avature is very powerful, on the right path

Pluspunten:

Avature is incredibly customizable. We selected Avature because we wanted to build in specific checkpoints and capture specific data points in our recruiting process and no other system could support our requirements like Avature can.

Minpunten:

The company is very siloed and it's extremely challenging to get the right help and customer service. You have to just get lucky that the person you are connected with happens to know how to solve your exact problem, otherwise you essentially don't get help.

Natural Feel - easy to adopt by the every day user.

Pluspunten:

The Avature UI is very sleek and clean; it feels natural. The usability is built for simplicity while offering customization for the user. The roadmap since I have been using it has been set up to deliver more features to users and non-developers which has been great to delivery agile results with little implementation timeline and resources.

Minpunten:

The platform is very customizable, but we tend to hit our record limits with lists, reports and dashboards that requires more developing of smaller chunks of data to get the values to generate versus creating a single large level widget for admins or senior leaders to review.

The most customizable tool in the market

Pluspunten:

Most of Avature's features and product solutions have the ability to customize for customers to get the most out of the tool. Processes can easily be improved as the tool can mold to the customer's needs. It has the ability to be agile in a would of constant change.

Minpunten:

The reporting features of a tool are typically difficult to understand and Avature is no different but they have many support options to get customers up to speed on how to navigate the reporting functionality.

Avature ATS, CRM, Onboarding

Opmerkingen: Avature is outstanding. You can use it for really any Recruiting, Onboarding and even Off-Boarding use case there is. Great tool and great support.

Pluspunten:

Customer service and flexibility of the product

Minpunten:

There isn't much - it's been an outstanding tool and the backbone of our department.

Great product but can be difficult to complete work

Pluspunten:

The incredibly flexible workflows and data models make it easy to facilitate our processes, which can be complex at times.

Minpunten:

Until our recent certification we needed Avature to update many things within our instance (application, career site, etc). After certification this has improved greatly! However, we still can find it difficult to understand what features are available or coming soon and if we have them enabled in our portals. With a good account manager relationship this can be helped.

The best ATS/CRM in the market

Opmerkingen: Avature has helped us bring all of Talent Acquisition into one product, in one instance. We have achieved our goal of 'One Team, One System' in Avature. We now have the ability to expand an enhance our reporting and dashboard capabilities, streamline our sourcing and screening of candidates utilizing AI, and create a cohesive, top-notch candidate and hiring team experience.

Pluspunten:

Avature's ATS and CRM functionalities are incredibly configurable and can accommodate a very diverse set of business capabilities. This has allowed us to create an instance that offers optionality, while keeping the various business processes in the same Product. This has been a game changer for our Talent Acquisition group!

Minpunten:

Avature's interviewing scheduling is quite manual - infusing this process with some AI, if possible, to make it a bit more user-friendly and automated would be helpful for us.

Flexible and mature product

Pluspunten:

The flexibility which can cater to almost any use case imagineable. The building blocks (datamodel, datasets, forms, workflows, etc.) of the platform make sense, and allow for highly customised and unique processes.

Minpunten:

It's difficult to understand and set up everything at first, as there is so much that can be done. Also, you have to request additional permissions to gain more power. But they tend to only give these permissions when you request them, however you can't request what you don't know. So this is best to discuss with your account manager, and then they are happy to walk through it together.
