## Reviews

### "Great Testing Software" — 5.0/5

> **Brandon** | *September 4, 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to create custom tests with various question types was worth the money spent. The list of skill assessments is impressive.
> 
> **Cons**: The duration of the Microsoft test was shorter than what we are used to. Additionally, it would be beneficial to have the option to assign more than one mark per question in the system, rather than having each question default to just one mark.
> 
> Overall, it has been a great experience, a very friendly team and very user-friendly software. Great security features to protect our account.

-----

### "CRITERIA IS THE BEST" — 5.0/5

> **Morielle** | *August 24, 2026* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Criteria is an excellent tool that we use during the interview process for both new hires and promotions. It is highly user-friendly, efficient, and makes candidate evaluation and tabulation seamless for interviewers. The tool helps ensure a structured, consistent, and fair assessment process while saving valuable time. I would highly recommend Criteria to any team involved in hiring or promotion decisions. You can also update it with whatever customary questions you need so it will be aligned with our company values.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not have anything in mind as this was really a great tool and my expectations are met\! Anyone who doesnt have training to handle it will have a likely easy time to navigate it as the features are user friendly\!
> 
> Criteria is user friendly and made tabulation easy for us who is doing interviews. This is a100% recommended tool.

### "User-Friendly Platform" — 4.0/5

> **Erika** | *August 31, 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked that Criteria was easy to use and didn’t take much time to learn. The features are straightforward, and it makes the candidate assessment process simple and organized.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing I’d say is that it would be nice to have more options to customize the assessments for specific roles. More flexibility with the questions would make it easier to fit the assessment to the position.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Criteria has been good. It’s easy to use and helps keep the candidate assessment process organized. I feel like it’s secure and provides good value for the features it offers. I haven’t really used the payroll management features, so I can’t speak much about that.

### "Criteria- Talent Hunt" — 5.0/5

> **Muhammad Zohaib** | *August 20, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Criteria Software offers a user-friendly experience with a manageable learning curve and strong security for HR data. It provides good value for money with comprehensive features, customization options, and efficient candidate interview management. Its payroll management capabilities also help automate processes, reduce manual work, and improve accuracy.
> 
> **Cons**: Criteria Software have advanced features, and some customizations can require additional technical support. Cost will increase with additional users or features, while certain advanced HR, interview, and payroll requirements may need extra configuration.
> 
> My overall experience remains very good with it. As I am a Talent Acquisition officer and also working on payroll as well, it is making my work easy.

### "Recruiter Experience and Hiring Team's Value from CCAT" — 2.0/5

> **Tiffany** | *September 1, 2026* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the integration between GreenHouse. It is super easy to use and very intuitive for folks that are sending out the CCAT to candidates through our ATS system.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't think it provides a whole lot of information to the Hiring Manager that isn't something we can find from a normal interview process. It's been difficult getting Hiring Teams to read through the results and use the data provided and most of them feel they don't think it provides any additional information that would be necessary to make a hiring decision. I also don't like that you can't send a second criteria corp link through our GH integration and instead we have to go on Criteria Corp's website to find the candidate and send it via the web browser.
> 
> My overall experience with Criteria has been okay. I think overall the product did a great job with integration with the ATS system but to be honest I don't 100% see the value in the product itself coming from the recruiting side or the hiring team size.
