> An applicant tracking system is the foundation of strategic talent management. ApplicantStack capably empowers all stakeholders: internal recruiters, hiring managers, administrators and—most importantly—applicants. ApplicantStack was designed by HR professionals for the challenges of real-world hiring. These include managing multiple positions simultaneously, screening hundreds of candidates quickly to find the top performers, and collaborating effectively to make hiring decisions with confidence. The texting feature allows recruiters to engage with applicants using their preferred method of communication, and even text-to-apply. The platform allows companies to post positions to job boards and social media sites without logging into each account separately. Pre-screener questionnaires filter out unqualified candidates before recruiters spend time reading their resumes. The software identifies and isolates a pool of qualified applicants. Then the hiring team can focus solely on candidates that meet the requirements. When an offer is accepted, users can transition the new hire to paperless onboarding that can be completed online. ApplicantStack users customize workflows based on their hiring processes. This allows them to use the features they need and hide the features they don’t need. Over 2500 companies and 20,000 hiring managers use ApplicantStack to attract, engage, screen, qualify, hire, and onboard employees. Over 22 million job seekers have applied using the mobile-friendly platform. Companies in 235 industries have made ApplicantStack their ATS of choice. These include health care (hospitals, clinics, home health, senior care, dental practices), delivery and transportation services, retail (grocery stores, pharmacies, convenience stores), restaurants, professional services (accounting, legal, tech, engineering), manufacturing, hospitality, and social services.

## Reviews

### "User Friendly, Well-Priced, Great Support for this ATS" — 5.0/5

> **Tiffany** | *22 August 2024* | Commercial Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to learn, easy to use, easy to modify and configure. We have lots of processes that work well within the AS recruiting module (issuing disciplinary letters, probation review docs, employment confirmation letters)
> 
> **Cons**: Some limitations with graphics and installing or attaching them
> 
> I find it very user friendly, and we have been clients for over 12 years and we have our entire history of candidature in AS. The cost is very reasonable, IMO.&#10;We only use Recruiting though, so no opinion on the Onboarding module. Support is very responsive and usually has a fix quite quickly for our issues

### "ApplicantStack review" — 4.0/5

> **Dee** | *27 May 2025* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how customizable it is. Its very user friendly. It is direct and to the point. Their reporting is fairly good as well
> 
> **Cons**: Their customer service is not the best. They take awhile to get back to you and there have been times where they do not have a solution.
> 
> It has been good. We have had minimal technical issues, the application is easy to use and make modifications to

### "Review of ApplicantStack from a Recruiter" — 4.0/5

> **Anna** | *27 April 2021* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the on-boarding paperwork feature
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to be able to print a blank form from my library of on-boarding forms if I need to.
> 
> Overall, it has been a good experience.  I like having a one-stop-shop to find applicants from several job boards.

### "Great communicating." — 3.0/5

> **Kimberlee** | *8 January 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Given the program's cost, I do not see any benefits to switching to AppStack. The pro is better communication. Appstack also does a better job of weeding out bad applicants.
> 
> **Cons**: The scheduling process. There is no way to integrate the schedules into our Google calendar accounts or our actual software Axiscare.
> 
> This far, it is better than the last company. We have a person we can call anytime with any problems. We did not have that with the last software.

### "Elizabeth Hakim's 12/12/2024 ApplicantStack Review" — 4.0/5

> **Elizabeth** | *12 December 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really appreciate the program's cost effectiveness and how useful ApplicantStack is for small to mid-sized companies
> 
> **Cons**: I didn't like the fact that ApplicantStack doesn't have a reference check program or a vendor partner (like Harver). It would also be nice if client support contact information was listed on the main screen after login. Finally, I wish we could reset applicants' passwords to the system ourselves.
> 
> In general, ApplicantStack is fairly user friendly and intuitive. Fore the most part, we've been pleased with the amount of programming for the price.
