Who it suits You already have systems that work. Applications get tracked. Surveys go out. Training gets assigned and logged. What you do not have is a straight answer when someone asks why the last three hires did not stick, or why one team is pulling away from the rest. That is the gap Compono was built for. It suits organisations across Australia and New Zealand where every people decision is visible, and getting one wrong is expensive. The two risks Your current tools reduce process risk. Faster workflows, cleaner records, better compliance, fewer admin errors. That work is necessary and most platforms do it well. They were never built for the second risk. People insight risk is the risk of making a confident decision on incomplete information. The candidate who cleared every stage and still did not settle. The engagement score you can report but cannot explain. The training that was completed on time and changed nothing. The team that underperforms while every metric looks fine. Compono reduces both. You keep the process efficiency, and you get the insight behind the decision. What you get Hire is an applicant tracking system (ATS) with culture and role fit scoring on every candidate, alongside the screening and interview workflows you already rely on. Engage is culture assessment and engagement measurement that maps the culture your strategy needs, then shows where you actually sit and why. Develop is a learning management system (LMS) that matches development to real capability gaps rather than tracking completion rates. Assure is competency assessment and credentialling for organisations that need to prove people can perform, not just that they attended. Four products, one behavioural profile. The data means the same thing wherever it appears, so hiring can draw on the culture you mapped, and development can draw on what hiring already learnt. The science behind it Compono is built by organisational psychologists on validated psychometric research. The Work Personality™ model maps people against eight work behaviour types, covering natural preferences, strengths, motivators and blind spots. That profile runs through every product, which is what keeps the platform additive rather than another silo. Proof Lyre's used Compono Hire to scale from 4 to 70 people across five continents in two years, holding quality and fit through hypergrowth. The Coffee Club used Compono Hire to deliver consistent hiring across 400 outlets while protecting culture nationwide. Compono Assure powers driver and motorbike licensing across five Australian states and has awarded more than 3 million certifications. Compono is ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certified.

From managing a high volume of applications with ease to tracking a candidate's entire journey, it's got it all. The intuitive design is a standout feature, making sorting and filtering a breeze.When it comes to candidate tracking, the software doesn't miss a beat, covering all stages of the recruitment process while offering an easy-to-navigate interface. The candidate management feature is particularly strong, offering a detailed view of each candidate's history, which is invaluable for roles where work experience and skills matter more than formal qualifications.Finally, the candidate profile and application management sections are equally robust. Profiles are presented in a consistent yet individualised manner, and the application process is smooth and user-friendly. All in all, a highly recommendable platform for any recruitment needs. > > **Cons**: While the platform excels in many areas, there is a minor inconvenience: the necessity to download resumes or cover letters to read them outside the platform. While not a deal-breaker, it's a small aspect that could be improved for an even smoother experience. > > As a small but growing business without a dedicated recruitment team, the Hire platform has been a game-changer for us. It has empowered our operational managers to recruit efficiently and effectively. Most importantly, the candidates we've hired through this system have been excellent cultural fits, aligning perfectly with our goal to get the right people into the right teams. ----- ### "Customer Support is second to none." — 5.0/5 > **Katherine** | *2 February 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The implementation and ongoing support from the Compono team has been exceptional. I've never waited more than an hour or two for a response when I reach out with questions. Support has been comprehensive and very receptive to feedback. Additionally, the functionality of the platform, particularly the Engage module and work personality have been an invaluable tool for management in our company. > > **Cons**: Not a lot not to like. Integrations to other job boards might be easier and helpful - we still find we rely heavily on recruiters, but that isn't necessarily a Compono issue. But having recommended job boards based on the job type or location could be helpful. also, integrations (API) with common HRIS's would be very helpful. > > Overall, it has been fantastic. Ongoing use, engagement with our team, and communication between Compono and us has been second to none. ----- ### "Easy to use and well supported LMS" — 5.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *25 August 2023* | Civic & Social Organisation | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The platform is really easy to use and was adaptable to our complicated model despite its simplicity. Really clean interface which learners and administrators appreciate. The support team is fast and committed in resolving issues, providing focused support where we have unique use cases. We are a charity and use the platform for online learning for thousands of learners across Queensland. > > **Cons**: Some access controls would benefit in being more granular. Feature roadmap would also be appreciated. ----- ### "Internal Culture understanding and External Recruiting value" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *29 August 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our team is heavily based on culture and understanding who is a good fit for our organisation when we hire. It was an amazing tool to identify what key things about our culture our team enjoyed and where we needed to put some work in. Once that was identified we could utilise our culture to identify if a applicant in our recruitment process was a good fit. > > **Cons**: The only 2 things we didn't like were1. Inability to integrate paid linked-in recruitment applicants into the system automatically. 2. Bumpiness of applicants actually filing in the details. Multiple applicants both did not complete the application or partially completed it thinking they were done. > > Overall the team is incredible and so accommodating to our needs, and also went the extra mile to offer some additional help in key areas. It was a great experience with the team and I would highly recommend working with them. Once the bugs are fixed we will work with them again. ----- ### "Online Training Platform" — 4.0/5 > **Craig** | *7 June 2024* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Compono was easy to set up, easy to use, easy to train other's how to manage and makes training our staff a breeze. Support has been fantastic, there has never been an issue that Compono has not been able to resolve in a timely manner. > > **Cons**: The only difficulty with rolling out Compono was the invitation email went to our employees junk folders, which we cannot blame Compono for. > > Compono has been an excellent addition to our organisation. Compono fits our organisational needs perfectly, from our Regulatory requirements to our training requirements, to our Budget needs, Compono is the training solution for us. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/417423/shortlyster?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/417423/shortlyster) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
