Hear why your peers love JobAdder
As a customer, despite JobAdder’s growth over the last 11 years, in terms of both size and customer base, one thing that remains true is that we feel like we’re listened to. It’s hard when you’re working with a growing business to still have that sense of connectedness with that business, which I’m really pleased to say that we do with JobAdder.
If JobAdder were a restaurant I think that the service we got was absolutely exemplary right from the initial outset and the way that we were sat at the table and then the dish that we got served was exemplary.
It has been valuable to have our metrics readily available to dive into and report on. It’s drastically reduced our time to collate reports and provide more in-depth analysis than we’ve previously been able to do.
Aussie Locums made the switch to JobAdder over two years ago and we have not looked back. JobAdder is easy to use, great for reporting and the apps and add ons are exceptional too. Their support team is fast to respond and very friendly.
We looked at three recruitment database options and chose JobAdder. We were sold on their simplicity, job board integration and local support.
Being able to easily measure things like time to hire, cost of hiring and volume of activity has enabled us to make better decisions.
JobAdder came out on top in all the key areas, from the cost of integration and setup to training for staff and then functionality and utility. I think the beauty of JobAdder is it runs in an agile, modern software environment that gives you regular updates to features that matter to users. It doesn’t matter how big or small you are, it scales with you and your business, which is perfect.
We are saving a lot of time each day using workflows and staying on the home screen. Personally, I have found that I’m saving an amazing amount of time on a daily basis. The team is getting the hang of it and have been very positive about their experiences.
JobAdder has really changed the way that we work, as well as the access through Analytics that we’ve now got to manipulate and interrogate data as well.
