> **Kerri** | *23 March 2021* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The system interfaces with our payroll and ATS systems, so we can easily complete the hiring process without delay.  You can create customized packages - or use a standard one - depending on your hiring needs.  The results come back quickly and accurately.
> 
> **Cons**: There are no concerns with this product.  The interface is easy to use and the results are easy to find.
> 
> We send employees into client's homes, so we wanted to ensure that we are only hiring the best people.  Having a clear background check provides reassurance for our clients and other employees.

> 
> **Cons**: Different levels of background checks cost more. would prefer on level
>

-----

### "Very Unhappy with HireRight" — 1.0/5

> **John** | *30 April 2025* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: aligned with UKG so this makes them a ready partner.
> 
> **Cons**: So many things.  Horrible service and their inability to effectively meet our needs.
> 
> Very poor.  Their captive arrangement with UKG is frustrating because they are not motivated to do a good job to keep your business.

### "One-stop shopping with accuracy" — 5.0/5

> **Meg** | *6 January 2022* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of integration into our current ATS/People management software. It was an easy process and the account rep guided us though and was available for questions. It is extremely thorough with details we need.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be a bit clunky to use if you need other things but there is a live chat that can help you through most things.
> 
> We chose Hire Right because ideally we wanted a source to do our criminal backgrounds, MVR, and drug screening, along with driver monitoring services.  They were able to make that happen.  We had to go through credentialing and the person who came to inspect us was thorough and friendly, and assisted us to be sure we knew what we needed to do.  Our account representative was amazing and they made it easy to select and use them.  I had used once before with another employer but was not involved in the set up or selection.  They went the extra mile for us. It is nice to have one stop shopping\!

> 
> **Pros**: HireRight integrates with our HRIS (Ceridian-Dayforce) making background checks a simple part of our onboarding process.
> 
> **Cons**: If I have to go into the system to manually update something, its a little bit of learning curve to figure out where to go.
> 
> This has been an easy to set up, solid, reliable system for over a year.
