When you have applicants who must provide a CRC for employment purposes, the last thing that you want to have as a recruiter is a long complicated process. It is both quick on the employer side and candidate side. It is user friendly from both sides as well. There is access 24/7; no time constraints. > > **Cons**: There really isn't anything that I would say is missing. > > When I was hired with TVH, they required everyone to physically go into a police station, wait in line, and then the turn around time is typically anywhere from 3 hours to 3 weeks time to receive a copy of an individual CRC for employment. I had used Crtn previously at another workplace to provide my CRC, and went to corporate HR to discuss whether we could do this instead and have it funded by our company as I was slightly off put by making an employee pay for their own prior to even being employed here. I proposed it to my partner at our North American head office in the U.S. - and the people who helped us still randomly check on us to ensure that we are not encountering difficulties. ----- ### "Revolutionized our background check workflow" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *5 May 2020* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Fully automated process if you set up your workflow properly. > > **Cons**: Their API documentation was a little lacking, although they've made some improvements and emails are quickly answered. > > Relatively easy implementation into our workflow through their API. We were able to eliminate almost all human involvement in our background check process and speed up turnaround times compared to our previous vendor where everything was done manually. ----- ### "Good for International Background Checks" — 3.0/5 > **Cristina** | *12 June 2020* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that we are able to run international background checks, we use Certn for background checks for candidates who are moving from other countries or who have recently moved from another country to the US. > > **Cons**: It takes a very long time for the background checks to be completed, it's not always clear why something takes long or a portion was unable to be completed. I have received information that Certn was unable to verify that I was easily able to verify afterward. And I don't love that we don't know the cost until after the background check is run. > > Overall it works well enough for what we need and though it can take a bit of back and forth, customer service is always nice, helpful and does their best to resolve the problem. However, given that our primary background check service syncs with our HRIS (very important to us), and is a great service in itself we won't be fully switching over anytime soon. ----- ### "Best background check service on the market" — 5.0/5 > **Jodelene** | *5 June 2021* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Canadian company that has excellent customer service. Easy to implement software solution and our customers love the instant reports that helps them with their tenant selection process. > > **Cons**: No complaints\! Other competitors are more costly and use less technology with their service. > > A great service to offer our customers (Landlords and Property Management companies) as well as an ID verification system that we use internally to mitigate fraudulent accounts. ----- ### "Great and affordable system" — 4.0/5 > **Tayjah** | *5 May 2020* | Packaging & Containers | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that this software is easy to use but that it also has a very human element to it. It was a proven good choice when I received feedback from a CANDIDATE, who was going into detail about how helpful the system was when it was running the employment verification checks. > > **Cons**: The SoftCheck could be improved. In this case, users need to choose what they want: affordability or reliability. Certn's SoftCheck is affordable, but I don't think it does a better job than me taking a quick look through the candidate's social media pages. You might as well save that cost and do it yourself or pay big bucks to have a private investigator do the online work for you. > > We have mostly enjoyed our experience with Certn, and when we didn't, their customer service team did their best to rectify it within a very reasonable time. I would recommend Certn to any business. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ie/software/133591/certn?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ie/software/133591/certn) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
