AVID Technical Resources needed to replace its first customer relationship management (CRM) application and applicant tracking system (ATS), which was inefficient for recruiters and the sales force because it did not:
- Combine CRM and ATS capabilities into one intelligent and intuitive workflow
- Integrate with email, calendars, instant messaging, reporting tools and other front-office applications that help employees collaborate and communicate quickly with each other, clients and candidates
- Automate core staffing and recruiting activities, including sourcing, job posting and mass mailing
AVID Technical Resources implemented Bullhorn as its comprehensive CRM, ATS and collaboration solution, enabling the company to:
- Replace its legacy applications quickly, easily and inexpensively via the Bullhorn software-as-a-service (SaaS) delivery model
- Boost productivity by combining essential IT staffing and recruiting functions into a an intuitive design for users that streamlines operations into a highly efficient workflow

- Let employees work any time and from anywhere with support for instant messaging and mobile devices such as smartphones, the iPad, laptops and netbooks.
