Key Takeaways

Generated from the text of customer reviews

Pinpoint provides applicant tracking for talent acquisition teams hiring for different roles and locations. Recruiters and hiring managers at mid-market and larger organizations most widely use the platform. Users praise interface and candidate experience while some find advanced workflows difficult to configure. Its August 2026 release added AI usage visibility, candidate consent for AI Notetaker, and workflow updates.

Our Verdict

Pinpoint is a good option for established talent acquisition teams that hire regularly across departments and locations. Users generally find the platform easy to use. Its value is more apparent for organizations with enough hiring activity to justify a dedicated ATS. Pricing is quote-based and falls within the mid-market range and may make less sense for businesses with occasional hiring needs. We recommend Pinpoint for growing and larger organizations that need an ATS for ongoing recruitment.

Pinpoint ATS Features

Recruitment Reporting And Analytics

Pinpoint ATS features recruitment reports that give talent teams a view of hiring activity for different roles and departments. Recruiters and managers can use them to check recruitment progress and see where candidates are getting held up. This gives teams more detail than relying on individual recruiter updates.

See How It Works
Recruitment Agency Portal

Pinpoint's recruitment agency portal gives external recruiters a place to submit candidates for approved vacancies. Internal teams can control the jobs and candidates each agency can access. They can also track what happens to agency candidates after they are submitted.

See How It Works
Application Forms

Application forms can be adjusted for different vacancies, so recruiters can collect information relevant to each role. Candidates provide these details as part of the application. Hiring teams can then review the information before deciding which applicants should move into the screening process.

See How It Works
Background Checks

Background checks can be started within the recruitment process as a candidate moves toward employment. The results stay connected to the candidate's record rather than sitting in a separate system. This gives recruiters one place to follow pre-employment screening.

See How It Works
One-Way Video Interviews

One-way video interviews allow candidates to record their answers without arranging a live interview. Recruiters and hiring managers can watch the responses later as part of their assessment. This can help teams review a larger group of applicants before scheduling live interviews.

“flexible hiring hub that delivers real value”

Pros

We're big fans of Pinpoint. The platform has given our teams, managers and potential hires a brilliant hub to work from. It's super flexible so we can tweak settings to suit our processes and roll with changes as they happen. It also surfaces data we didn't have before which lets us plan recruitment more strategically. The automated tools cut down on manual admin and free the team to focus on candidates. The Pinpoint support crew are quick to respond and helpful when we suggest changes. Overall it's genuinely brought a lot of value to our organisation.

Cons

Nothing major comes to mind right now. There are a handful of features that could use some tweaks but we're confident they'll arrive thanks to our ongoing feedback and the work we do with the team.

“Should stop with frequent updates”

Pros

Connecting to job boards was effortless so posting roles and going through candidate CVs was easy.

Cons

It was updated a lot which made maintaining a steady workflow hard. When we used it there weren't the AI tools other vendors offered. Also the account manager seemed absent, not sure we had one though support did act fast when problems came up.
