Web-Based or Client-Server Recruitment System—which is right for my business?
There are two main types of recruitment systems in the market today: the ones that are Web-based recruitment software systems and those who have chosen a client-server architecture.
Web-Based Recruitment Systems versus Client-Server Recruitment Systems:
Choosing between these two systems is not a personal preference, but a critical decision in creating an efficient and successful recruitment system for your company. Understanding the major differences between the two is essential.
Client-server software:
Typically needs to be installed, maintained and managed by your own computer hardware
Whereas web-based, on demand SaaS recruitment software:
The vendor hosts the system for you, looking after both hardware and software in their own data centre
The service is delivered in real-time over the internet
When it comes to configuration and flexibility, Web-based systems have a serious advantage, as all changes can be deployed online without the need for installation patches and change management tasks at your end.
What do the Clients Say?
“TurboRecruit is one of the most innovative and easy to use web based products we’ve come across. What’s important to us apart from ease of use is the people support behind the product and this has been second to none. Turbo welcome feedback and are quick to act no matter how great or small the challenge. The TurboRecruit workflow has the dynamic flavor the Recruitment industry cries out for. Structured but flexible where it counts.”
