If you’re in the market for a new recruiting software, you may be wondering how PCRecruiter compares to Loxo. After all, both companies have a substantial market presence, and both products offer similar capabilities for recruiting professionals.
Where you’ll see significant differences is in the cost of those capabilities, the depth and flexibility of the features, and the way each company supports its customers.
PCRecruiter is intensely customer-focused. No company is perfect in every interaction, but PCRecruiter customers — from the smallest to the largest — experience that energy throughout their relationships with the company and the technology, and at far lower costs. In fact, reviewers on G2 ranked PCR the Best Estimated ROI for recruiting agencies with 1-50 employees.
If you stack up Loxo’s paid add-ons to build a feature set comparable to what’s available with PCRecruiter — automations, email sync, API, third-party integrations, account support, reporting, etc. — Loxo becomes the significantly costlier option. Some former Loxo users reported a 50% cost savings by switching to PCR.
We asked our consulting team what they hear from former Loxo users who are switching to PCR about why they decided to switch. Here are the three most common reasons cited:
PCRecruiter supports a wide variety of workflows, custom fields, and custom forms, all configurable by the user. This extends to configuring your own searches and filters.
PCRecruiter offers the ability to create multiple pipeline configurations for different types of roles and to create your own fields and forms to suit your unique process.
With the PCRecruiter Sequencing tool, the recruiter’s day can be broken down into a series of easily followed manual and automated tasks, including emails, calls, and other interactions.
PCR even offers compliance tools for GDPR and alternate currencies and languages.
PCRecruiter’s API (free for basic use) facilitates a wide range of integrations, including our highly popular and easy to use integrations with Outlook, Gmail, and RingCentral for SMS and automatic call tracking.
Users also love PCR Capture, the free browser extension for importing and updating data. While Loxo offers a similar extension, their user agreement suggests that data from it may be used by Loxo’s indexing system. With PCR Capture (and PCR in general), your data goes into your database and nowhere else.
PCR also integrates with popular sourcing and contact lookup tools like Interseller, HireEZ and ZoomInfo. We focus on helping you build your own private database, not building our own.
No matter how great a system is, it is nothing without customer service and support. Our award-winning in-house support team knows the software and, more importantly, knows you and your company, so that you get the answers you need.
PCRecruiter users consistently rave in their feedback and reviews how easy it is to get in touch with the support team, how friendly the staff is, and how quickly their questions or issues are resolved.
PCRecruiter offers support via the web chat, phone, and email, always with a knowledgeable human at the other end, no matter the size of your organization.
We think PCRecruiter is the best, but we’re admittedly a bit biased! If you want an independent opinion, we have the reviews from actual recruiters from sites like Capterra and G2 to back us up.
