Launches SourceFirst, a New Internet Candidate Sourcing Tool |
Dallas -
July 27, 2009 - cBizSoft, Inc., a leader in recruiting software
solutions for the staffing industry, today unveiled SourceFirst,
their fully integrated candidate sourcing tool. SourceFirst
enables users to search for qualified candidates across hundreds
of sites, including paid job boards, major search engines, free
boards, niche boards, associations, colleges and social
networks. SourceFirst increases the reach and productivity of
recruiters by providing a simple-to-use interface to scour the
internet for resumes, provide ranked results and import them
with one click. SourceFirst is bundled with the cBizOne Pro and
cBizOne Pro Hosted applications at no additional cost, a first
in our industry.
"Our
confidential partnership with an industry-leader in internet
candidate sourcing technology enabled us to provide a proven,
time-tested sourcing engine to our users. We designed a
completely custom interface to make SourceFirst a seamless part
of our overall recruiting solution. Being able to provide such
a valuable tool at no cost to cBizOne Pro and cBizOne Pro Hosted
users is something we are proud to be able to do," said Bob
Nelson, Director of Marketing for cBizSoft. "With prices
starting at $49 per user per month for cBizOne Pro with
SourceFirst bundled into it, there isn't a competitor in the
market that can compete with us on overall functionality and
value."
SourceFirst gives users the ability to run keyword search,
extended search (State, Salary, Education, etc.), as well as
Boolean search. No other integrated sourcing tool supports
full-Boolean searching, which is commonly used by many
recruiters and sourcers to find very specific results when
searching for qualified candidates. One more unique feature of
SourceFirst is that multiple recruiters in the same company can
concurrently search the same paid site at the same time using
one account.
SourceFirst was designed to be a very intuitive, yet powerful
part of the overall cBizOne Pro recruiting platform.
SourceFirst provides centralized access to candidate sources
that most recruiters and researchers wouldn't have time to
effectively search on a piecemeal basis. By aggregating all of
those sources into cBizOne Pro and the SourceFirst tool,
recruiters and researchers can work more efficiently, increase
productivity and profitability.

24, 2004 - The Fordyce Letter May,2004 - cBizOne
Review |
cBizOne
by cBizSoft by Mark
Berger
Due
to the continuing strong demand from The
Fordyce
Letter
readers for information on recruiter databases, I have been
trying to review an ATS each month. This month I thoroughly
enjoyed the opportunity to review a database I had heard of
but had never seen: cBizOne by cBizSoft. It is one of the most
complete and comprehensive systems I have reviewed to date.
That, combined with speed, ease of use, and a very familiar
"Windows" design make for a solid system.
This
product is a web-enabled client-server application that can be
used either stand-alone or networked. Your database is
also accessible from anywhere using the Internet. cBizOne can
be hosted on your desktop or network or hosted by cBizSoft or
a third-party hosting company. For virtual companies and
remote users, regardless of hosting model, they utilize data
replication to continuously update information back and forth
from your desktop to the server. The beauty in this
configuration is that you always have access to your data,
regardless of whether you have an Internet connection. When
you are connected, your data is synchronized with the server
so it can be shared with others in your office, or, if you run
a solo shop, you can have access from multiple PC's. When you
are not connected, the system if fully functional, and all
your adds and changes are synched up with the server the next
time you are connected.
There
is no main screen, per se. You start the program and get a
two-pane view with all your folders on the left and all the
data in those folders on the right. They have folders for
Companies, Contacts (hiring managers), Candidates,
Requirements, a Calendar and Sent Mails (there is a built in
email client that works hand in hand with your Outlook
program). Once you select the folder you want to look at, all
your data appears on the right in a datasheet view. One very
handy feature is the (patent-pending) Live Search Bar, at the
top of each data page. You simply type in a few letters in the
text box above the field you want to search (Name, State,
Skills, etc.) and you are able to locate almost any contact or
candidate within seconds.
Adding
a new candidate is easy. You can add new records either singly
or batch up many together and by using the GrabIT feature. It
can create new records extracted directly from emails, folders
or web pages. Once you add your new candidate record, all
activity and correspondence with that person is recorded. The
good part about that is that on each candidate record you have
information on all your email correspondence, what
requirements/companies they have been submitted to, all
interview and placement activity, plus all the standard fields
for contact information, job history, skills, education, etc.
The
database is highly customizable. New records can be created
using a set of fields to capture data in a Win-Form, which can
be completely customized by the user to include industry,
company-specific or any other fields of your choosing.
An example might be custom fields for certifications or
licenses. Also, you can create a web form that can reside on
your own website. Candidates can enter their profile/resume
into your web page and the candidate will be automatically
added to the database.
The
Companies folder allows you to link all your clients within a
company and the linking information lets you see all your
Requirements and Submittals for that company. The Requirements
form is very straightforward and similar in functionality to
the Candidates form in that it also captures data via custom
fields or can be entered via your website.
Once
your Candidates, Companies, Contacts and Requirements are in
the database it’s time to do some searching. This is
accomplished in any one of several ways. I have already
mentioned the Search Bar, a great feature to find data fast.
You can also use the Advanced Find (a comprehensive search
against the Candidate records, notes and resumes) and/or the
Document Find (a text search against your hard drive or
server) features. A nice touch is the highlighting of your
keywords in the search results.
Once
the search is complete, time to make some submissions. A few
clicks and you're there. On sending the Candidate to your
Contact, the Candidate is automatically linked to the
Requirement, Contact and Company. They offer a highly
customizable email template, including your logo that really
makes your submissions stand out from the competition.
A copy of the sent email is logged to the software and
your external email client. Tracking the candidate through the
placement is made simpler when the components are linked and
easily accessible.
A
unique feature of cBizOne is its direct integration with
Outlook. Through an Outlook toolbar AddIn called cBizBar, you
can use GrabIt, parse resumes, directly add clients to
cBizOne, link emails to any database entry, etc.
I
could go on but I'll stop here for now. Having said all of the
above, they have the lowest monthly fee for this type of
service that I have seen to date. Their standard, published
fees are $30 per month per user. There are no fees for setup,
support, upgrades, training, or data import. Unheard of up to
this point. Also, there is no minimum contract. Service is
billed month by month. For $10 more per month you can get a
SQL Server based system (as opposed to the Access based
system) if you have a larger office. Hosting and remote
administration services are also available.
They
offer a free 60-day trial of their software that can be
downloaded from www.cbizsoft.com.
My thanks to Bob Nelson, cBizSoft, Inc. Director of Marketing,
for his help with this review. Anyone with any questions or
comments can reach Bob via voice at 972-713-3888 x 24 or via
email at bob@cbizsoft.com.
I would strongly encourage anyone that has any interest in a
solid, versatile, comprehensive ATS should definitely put this
software on your review list. |

Industry Vendors Combine Free Trial Offerings To Give
Customers A Technology & Revenue Boost |
Staffing
software vendor cBizSoft has expanded their partnership with
Staffing Exchange provider Subcontract.com. The two companies
have connected their products electronically with a zero cost
entry point for new customers.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) March 23,
2004 – Staffing, recruiting and consulting firms of all
sizes are seizing the opportunity to try a combined solution
which includes cBizOne, a staffing software and application
tracking system and Subcontract.com, the leading staffing
exchange for subcontract and split placements.
For the next 60 days, all
Subcontract.com customers are able to try out a
state-of-the-art applicant tracking system, cBizOne, recently
dubbed “…the prototype of things to come”, by The
Electronic Recruiting News and all cBizOne customers will be
able to try Subcontract.com, which was recently cited by The
Wall Street Journal as “the leading medium for subcontract
staffing”.
As an added bonus, cBizOne
has implemented Subcontract.com’s API called exchangePORTAL.
This move makes using both products more convenient by
automating most Subcontract.com tasks from within cBizOne. For
example, blinding and posting candidate inventory and posting
jobs to Subcontract.com can now be done with a single click
right from cBizOne.
Interested customers can
register to try cBizOne for a 60 day trial and a receive a
limited access account on Subcontract.com by registering at

16, 2004 - cBizSoft Featured in Electronic Recruiting News |
Small
Is Beautiful by John
Sumser
(March 16, 2004) - We
had an interesting conversation with the folks at cBizSoft.
At $30/month, they appear to be carrying the low end of the
pricing spectrum in the ATS market. Licensed software with
embedded update functionality, the product evolved from the
company's early history as an IT contracting shop.
With 1400 users (and growing
fast), cBizSoft 2.0 is
not enterprise class software and doesn't try to be. It's a
multifunctional tool for seasoned recruiters. While the tool
has strong individual based marketing and CRM capabilities,
you'd never use it in a Fortune 50 setting with high demands
for collaboration. Their market is staffing firms and
operations with four or five recruiters. It would be a great
launch tool for a new search firm.
We're moving quickly into an
era where XML driven, web services based tools are custom
assembled to meet the functionality needs of a given client.
One look at Peoplesoft's
declining license
revenues suggests that big box computing has reached the
limits of the market. Mass customization of software and
associated services is an idea that is emerging quickly.
That process will begin with
the rapid spread of small, lightweight, low maintenance tools
in the small to medium business sector. The basic idea of
XML/web service is the deconstruction of large packages into
small bits of useful functionality, so we're expecting a rash
of micro vendors, built along the lines of cBizSoft, who
integrate customer service and updates into an online feed.
The interesting possibility
in all of this is the evolution of new consulting companies
that serve as the 'outfitters'. With broad
ranges of choice and
incremental value developed from the assembly of small tools,
someone is going to have to keep track of who's who and what's
what. The implication for large enterprise houses is a fairly
rapid shift into service delivery as a prime contractor with
lots of minor pieces from small shops.
It would be useful to get to
know cBizSoft. Sleek (in terms of cost and organizational
structure), they are the prototype of things to come. |
