Background
The Panel are a recruitment agency in Dublin, sourcing and placing talent in Ireland and overseas, and specialising in the areas of Accountancy, Financial Services, IT & Business Change and Legal & HR.
When The Panel were looking to replace RDB with a cloud-based solution that would provide opportunities for automation, and ultimately future-proof their business, they opted for Bullhorn. Kyloe were there to facilitate a smooth transition with minimal disruption.
Challenges
As with many companies, The Panel were nervous that moving 20 years’ worth of data could cause a huge disruption to their business. Paul McArdle (Managing Partner) told us that “going ahead and making the move from a system we’d been using for over 20 years was taking a step into the great unknown – we were anticipating lots of things that could go wrong!”.
There were a few functionalities from RDB that were integrated into their business processes, namely scheduling interviews and sending confirmations, that The Panel didn’t want to lose as part of the migration.
User adoption was a big thing too – when one system has been in place for so long, it can be challenging to get users to adopt new ways of doing things.
