Bewertungen über Checkr

Easiest background checker around!!
Kommentare: Checkr gives me the chance to look at the whole picture of someone I’m hiring giving me the chance to make a sound and safe hiring decision for the company.
Vorteile:
How easy it was to navigate around the site it wasn’t a long drawn out process like other sites!
Nachteile:
The lay out could have been better. Things placed in different areas than they were.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Meets Expectations
Kommentare: Overall it's a good prodcut that meets my expectations. I get the results I need in the time frame that I need them, and that's good enough for me right now.
Vorteile:
I am able to integrate Checkr with our current HRIS and start the process right from an applicants profile. I usually have a quick turnaround and easy to read reports.
Nachteile:
There are so many different packages to choose from, sometimes it's complicated to know exactly what I'm ordering unless I log in directly to Checkr and then sort through the different packages.
High reviews from companies, awful reviews from candidates
Kommentare: I've never had such a terrible onboarding experience before for a background check. I've done background checks and developed vetting before but this company has the worst experience as a candidate. They frequently pause the check to "request information" but the portal does not have a clear explanation of what they need. Questions are responded to with autoreplies, or responses that ignore the question entirely. Example: I emailed them to ask why my employment references were not complete (they had been completed last week). They ignored the question and told me they needed to verify a totally different thing and had been waiting for me to take action. There was no indicator in the portal or anywhere else that they expected action to be taken, so if I hadn't contacted them I would have presumably missed my start date with my company. The ramifications both for my new employer's business and my own ability to make rent would have been huge, and it was barely averted. Employers: look elsewhere, check the reviews on TP or other sites where you'll see candidates regularly mentioning horror stories with this site. I'm shocked they're still in business
Vorteile:
Checkr is meant to automate the process of background checks by having a useful and easy-to-access portal for users to upload their documents and check the progress of their background check.
Nachteile:
Despite the portal looking great, the major flaw with this company is their lack of communication, terrible customer service and reliance on auto-replies which suggests a company that doesn't care about candidates.
Package review
Kommentare: Love it.
Vorteile:
The synchronization with Procare Online.
Nachteile:
When we create a profile from Procare online and select a package, that package is not reported in the Checkr website. I have to select the package again when sending the invitation to the candidates.Also. When an invitation link has expired and a new new invitation link is sent to the candidate from Checkr website, that new link and its report results is not updated on Procare online. Procare still keeps the old expired link where as the candidate has been cleared but we can't see it on procare.
Checkr has been a great asset to our ministry
Vorteile:
Integration with Planning Center, ease of use, ability to track the status of background process or if one is expired.
Nachteile:
I wish we could add context to the initial email so that our volunteers know that it is coming from our organization and to be clear on what information we check and that we are using Checkr for our volunteers not for a job application. This has caused some confusion lately.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Wonderful software solution for a variety of businesses.
Kommentare: We have loved the ability to submit hundreds of background checks and to quickly and easily see their status/results.
Vorteile:
I like that Checkr is an easy-to use and well-supported online solution. We really appreciate the ability to pick and choose what features we want and that Checkr has a pricing solution for any combination of features.
Nachteile:
As with any background check system it can be frustrating when dealing with improper background check information or errors that come up when requesting a background check due to user (applicant) input error.
Vast Improvement Over Sterling
Vorteile:
Much more agile, easy to use, and cheaper than Sterling - a far, far better user experience for both the administrator and candidate.
Nachteile:
Nothing to note! Great customer service and lots of attention in the onboarding.
Great Product to us
Kommentare: Solid
Vorteile:
Easy to use and good communication with customer support.
Nachteile:
Some responses are slow, but not necessarily due to Checkr and various county's are manual and slow to respond.
Fast Effective Background Checks
Vorteile:
Checkr works seamlessly with Planning Center which we use to track all of our people. We can start a background check right from a person's profile and a request is sent to the person who has asked to volunteer and they complete it without us having to be responsible for the safety of any of their personal information. Checkr lets us know when the background check is complete (usually within 24 hours) and we are able to print the report for our files and it automatically updates their status to approved, approved with caution, or red flags it because of a concern brought up by the background check.
Nachteile:
We have been very pleased with this software.

Review for Checkr
Kommentare: I love it and I want to always be using it whenever I have to run a background check.
Vorteile:
The big thing is that Checkr integrates with Greenhouse. It makes running and keeping track of these checks easy without having to hop into another system for tracking.
Nachteile:
I can't think of anything, everything is super great and support has been helpful.
Long process
Kommentare: I’m not satisfied because I need that report for the next step in hiring process
Vorteile:
Motor vehicle report came back pretty fast
Nachteile:
Taking background way too long, my background usually takes 24-48 hours if that. Now it’s been 5 days they stated it would May 2 now they are saying May 13-18
You don't get what you pay for
Vorteile:
I liked that they have an online system that seems obvious.
Nachteile:
I paid for a premium tier background check tier that included employment an education verification services. The employee was in a rush so he clicked skip. He then wanted to come back and answer it. Checkr won't let him do that. He asked me to look into it and I need to pay again. Customer support said their default settings is to allow people to skip questions, charge the company, and then have them pay for it again. They can change this setting, but you have to ask. Working with this company isn't worth your time.
Background checks made easy!
Kommentare: It's been great overall! Definitely easier to use than other companies we've worked with in the past and the system keeps track of when re-checks are needed, which is super helpful and much more clear to us to keep us on track! Billing is straightforward and easy to change if needed. We're on autopay so it's easy peasy each month!
Vorteile:
We switched from a different company last year and started using Checkr. It works SO much easier with our current organization software (Church Community Builder). From setting up an account, to adding users, to requesting background checks and tracking in the CCB system, it's super easy. Background checks are usually super quick to get results from. And the cost is a little cheaper than the company we used before!
Nachteile:
We don't necessarily know all of the features that are available to us. Cost breakdown wasn't easy to find on the account website. Sometimes it's hard to find answers on the help section for what we're looking for. We just usually need general background checks for our volunteers and also employees and that's really it. I see there's more features in Checkr that we need to probably research and make sure we're utilizing things to our fullest so we will do that! For the basic needs we have, Checkr has been easy to use and the customer service is quick to respond and help when we have questions.

Great service with simple API setup
Kommentare: The easy-to-use API and webhooks enable our organization to process hundreds of background checks automatically. We would not be able to run at the scale we are without this ability.
Vorteile:
Being able to configure webhooks directly in the dashboard makes it a snap to connect Checkr to external Applicant Tracking Systems. This makes implementation possible even in low- or no-code organizations.
Nachteile:
Some of the reports and background check results can be difficult to interpret. Thankfully customer service walked us through all of it.
Saved me so much time when I was hiring contractors!
Kommentare: Using Checkr I was able to focus my time and energy on running my marketing business, rather than chasing down personal information and gathering forms around town from contractors for weeks. Checkr sped up my hiring process by several weeks because I was able to get background check results online within days.
Vorteile:
I loved the fact that Checkr handled the whole background check process for me completely online. I saved so much time when I was hiring contractors to service the online leads I was getting. All I had to do was input some basic information about my contractors like their e-mail address, and Checkr started doing the rest for me right away. They send an e-mail to your potential contractors or employees. After clicking the link in the e-mail your contractors can fill in all of their personal information on their own time. This is great for privacy reasons too and it helps your contractors feel more at ease knowing their information is being handled through a secure system. The entire process is very quick and you don't have to worry about anything except monitoring the background check results as they come in online.
Nachteile:
If I had to find a negative, I would say that the platform seemed very new and it offered very basic features, services, and a very simple design. The platform is being updated all the time though and I was able to perform a variety of different types of background checks efficiently.
Customer Service Improvement
Kommentare: Recently we had some staffing changes and in order to get our invoices I had to go in to the portal several times until the right person at Checkr could update our email contact for invoice and payment receipts. It took a couple of months to finally get the change made even though customer service said it was changed.
Vorteile:
The software works great and depending on the response of the people we are requesting the check on, it usually pretty quick.
Nachteile:
Other than the customer service concern I mention below (overall experience) I cannot think of anything negative at this time.
Easily Integrated
Kommentare: We run many background checks each month on volunteers looking to work with children and vulnerable populations. I have great confidence in Checkr's ability to get me a quick report and link the information to profiles on our database.
Vorteile:
The best feature was the ability to integrate this into our church's database software, Planning Center Online. We were easily able to set-up accounts, connect the two, and manage who is able to view the background checks from a platform we use regularly.
Nachteile:
The only thing I haven't liked is that the branding/website seems outdated.
Field Management
Kommentare: Sometimes hard to find candidates in the search. Have to put them in many areas to pull them up.
Vorteile:
Usually fast response, easy to use. 24 hour access.
Nachteile:
Would like to be able to put in a specific job, and pull all applicants with that information. Example-Floor experience-Pull all floor experience within all candidates that are applying to all jobs in the area.

Always Engaged With Our Company's Goals
Kommentare: Always engaged with us and our goals. Great communication!
Vorteile:
Integration makes it all super easy! I really appreciate the hands on help our reps provide.
Nachteile:
Customization needs for us aren't quite met at this point.
Best background check available
Kommentare: Checkr does a great job providing fast and complete results in their background checks. I am confident my students are safe when I use Checkr to background check a potential instructor. It's fast, transparent and makes the candidate comfortable with the process.
Vorteile:

Nachteile:
I don't have any negative experience to share.
Due diligence to any contracting firm please utilize ethical practices and use another company
Kommentare: Not very pleasant ,considering this is a business of ethical practices and hold high importance with sensitive information and with good candidates at stake, we will not be recommending their services.
Vorteile:
Its not the software that is the problem it's the decision making on someone who has no background being made to wait for no reason.
Nachteile:
The company is not thorough in their candidate background processing, things that are not relelvant are made relevant and when it brought to their attention it takes them 10 days or more to correct the problem.

Great Software!
Kommentare: Overall, my experience has been great! I've relied on it heavily for background checks and employment verifucations.
Vorteile:
Checkr is easy to use, integrates well with my HR and Talent stack, and provides quick and reliable results!
Nachteile:
I don't have any cons at this point for this software.
Checkr Review by Hazel Ann Nolos
Kommentare: Very good. I like the updated Checkr now. To be specific, a product like Driver Pro takes shorter time than before. That's why we get to help a lot of drivers now.
Vorteile:
It works in a detailed manner and it has the reports needed for every background check.
Nachteile:
Some products depending on the region of the driver takes longer time than the usual.
Seamless and Accurate
Kommentare: This was such an easy transition for us to begin Checkr and integrate into our current database!
Vorteile:
The ease of use and integration with our current church database (Planning Center) has made this tool our go to for all volunteer background checks. Knowing the accuracy and promptness of Checkr gives us and our parents ease of mind that we have done our due diligence in protecting our children.
Nachteile:
There are some rare occasions where we have needed a volunteer to fill a Sunday morning role and the background check may not be returned instantly on late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, but that is such a rare moment.
A great tool with great integrations.
Kommentare: Amazing. Really a great tool to vet candidates and get people hired!
Vorteile:
Extremely easy to use. The integration with Greenhouse allows us, and the rest of the recruiting team, to easy select the type of background check required for the specific role and send to the prospective new employee. The speed and follow-ups are really five steps above competetors.
Nachteile:
For our purposes, the software is great.
