Sounds great, but I have questions

Why do customers typically pick Datapeople over working within Microsoft Office?

Datapeople is built for modern recruiting teams. Our platform integrates closely with all major ATSes, and makes talent acquisition teams more efficient and effective by embracing standards, inclusivity, and ensuring compliance. To learn more, we encourage you to read our G2 reviews.

What if I have Microsoft Office and Datapeople?

Datapeople’s platform is built to optimize your job content, regardless of where that content was originally drafted. Whether it comes from a hiring manager, Word, or CoPilot, our platform will help you institutionalize standards, address complex regulations and requirements, infuse inclusion, and flexibly align with your hiring systems and processes.

Why may a customer choose Microsoft Office over Datapeople?

Large recruiting teams that have robust and well maintained folders and processes may find the change to a single location and platform for job content unnecessary.

How long does Datapeople take to implement?

You can start using Datapeople almost immediately. A basic setup can be completed in a matter of minutes and a full ATS integration can take up to a few days even for large enterprises.
