Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ease of scaling is one of BrassRing's biggest strengths, making it a trusted choice for large companies.""It is extremely user friendly. It is very flexible in managing recruitment, especially when you have thousands of applicants as we did. We easily had over 20,000 applicants within a year for some of our positions, so it made it very easy to manage a large application pool. It was very easy to customize by recruiter preference. When you open up someone's profile to see their experience, education, or other things, you can customize that for yourself. It was flexible in that, and each recruiter could set up their preferences. It didn't have to be set up so that everyone had to have the same landing platform, which was very helpful. As someone who trained other HR people on how to use the system, it was very easy to pick up and learn.""IBM Kenexa is fairly stable. We don't have any downtime.""The most valuable features are that we can upload documents and download them on demand."

"The Performance Manager, Recruitment manager, and the Payroll and HR core functionalities are the most valuable aspects of this solution."

More Sapience [EOL] Pros →

Cons
"It needs to update its reporting and analytics tools.""I would like to have a better and more user-friendly interface.""The reporting tool is helpful, but it is not the easiest to train on or is not as understandable for other HR pros. Their Workbench site, which is the administrator site that you use to update your website, is not user-friendly. When updates are required, it is not that easy to manage because Workbench is not user friendly. It required more work from the admins. They have Workbench training, which actually was very unhelpful. It took eight hours to complete, and it was not very helpful. Their customer service when it comes specifically to their Workbench site is not helpful.""I would not recommend IBM Kenexa to others."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Kenexa was fairly priced. However, in 2019, before I left my previous organization, they significantly increased their pricing. It can be affordable, but their pricing is going up. It is not just licensing; it is how many applicants you have in your system on the database side."
