ATS evaluation
ATS or spreadsheet: what does your team need?
Compare a flexible hiring tracker with a shared application workflow, using the work your team does every day.
When a spreadsheet can be enough
A spreadsheet can work for a small, clearly owned hiring process. It is flexible and lets a team start with familiar tools. Agree on what each status means, who updates it and where candidate documents and communication are stored. Review access whenever the team changes.
When connected records become useful
An ATS becomes more valuable when the work includes several reviewers, repeated handoffs or multiple applications from the same person. Draft connects job applications, candidate profiles, CVs and notes so those parts of the process can be reviewed together.
Before moving, identify duplicate records and decide which information remains useful. Test a small import and review the result before transferring a larger set. The decision should follow your workflow, not a claim that every spreadsheet is inadequate.
