447 Xref Reviews
We needed to set up new templates for specific roles. Reaching out to Xref for help on this was simple; they replied instantly and spent quite some time helping us set up the new templates in our recruitment system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing comes to mind, Xref is a great product and team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the simplicity of the Xref functionality, not only for the requestor but for the applicants and referees. I love that you can view the activity on each request in real time to see who has accessed the request, where it's at in the process, how many follow-ups etc. It's fantastic to have the ability to add multiple templates so you can easily tailor requests depending on the job and what you require.

I would love to see notifications being sent by SMS as well as e-mail. It's more likely that people will check their phone and respond to SMS rather than e-mail, especially when following up on outstanding requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Email updates when a candidate has submitted a reference or has failed to submit a reference Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
XRef does not inform the recruiter when an email address is unobtainable. As well, there should be an option for the referee to upload a verification document (business card, LinkedIn profile) if they are using a personal email address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Xref automates the reference checking process which saves me a significant amount of time on follow up with referees and provides me with a comprehensive report. Because it's automated, I am also able to obtain references from referees on the otherside of the world when I am asleep! Its great.
I also love that it integrates with my Electronic Recruitment System (JobAdder) and with the click of a button, everything is automated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really dont have anything to dislike about the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Xref is very straightforward to use and is designed very well. As the system is so easy to navigate, it has been effortless to teach new team members how to use and navigate the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be better if we could edit our Reference Check templates (and create new ones) through the platform directly, rather than having to speak to our account manager to do this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What i love most about X-Ref is how quick the turn-around time is for a reference check to be completed, compared to back in the day when we had to complete them over the phone and take around 30mins for each reference to be completed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing I dislike about X-Ref as it is working well for our organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The integration with our ATS is great. I also like how how the system sends you real time updates and you can track where all of your references are in the lifecycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I cant think of anything that i think could improve. The design is great and it's very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it is the simplest reference checker, you have all the forms you might need to use, you just need to provide a link to your prospect and they do the rest, you then just have to make sure all references are as complete as you wish to have them, at no point you need to interact with those giving out the reference, which is really important when your are time-limited. the time is really attentive, they provide the training and help you down your learning curve when you are implementing for the first time or when there are major improvements, they adjust to your schedule as much as they can so you do not have to be joining a webinar at five in the morning or really late at night.

even though it is easy to use I think the interface could be a lot more friendly, like the layout, but the one they have works great, so it is not a deal breaker for me. The platform is very complete and it adjust to our needs, other users could have different experiences with them, ours is like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
-I love that Xref is very easy/simple to use. Once set up with templates etc, you can send a referee request in only a few short clicks!
-Xref sends reminders to both the candidate and referees so that you as the recruiter don't have to spend time chasing them up!
-Xref will alert you if there are any issues with a reference.
-The customer service team is great! Cecelia one of the Customer Success Managers is fantastic, she always responds to my questions/issues within a few hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Overall I like Xref. It will be even better in future, when candidates will be sent text messages in addition to emails to alert them to provide details of their referees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
