Staffing Software Leaders Announce New Product Releases to Help US Recruiters Build Sustainable Growth

Bond International Software – www.bondinternationalsoftware.com – worldwide provider of staffing and recruitment software, today releases AdaptSuite v.4.0 to include back office workflow improvements for increased flexibility along with an updated interface to match AdaptUX, now also available in the U.S. for direct hire recruiters.

With the AdaptSuite 4.0 release, commercial staffing agencies are now able to complete everyday tasks through reduced clicks in maximum screen space. Benefiting from the well received AdaptUX user interface, menus and taskbars have been optimized to streamline the navigation process.

Simultaneously AdaptUX, Bond’s industry leading technology, that is widely adopted across the UK and Europe, is being launched in the U.S. to provide faster ways to find and place permanent talent and contractors. AdaptUX v.2.5 is designed to cater for the needs of both direct-hire and professional firms in the US, integrating a robust recruitment CRM for effective management of relationships with leads and prospects, and an ATS powered by HP IDOL technology for immediate and accurate candidate sourcing.

The powerful contextual search functionality understands meaning and sentence structure held within text such as job specifications or resumes, and delivers a far more intelligent way of searching to produce reliable results. All prospect, client and candidate interactions are recorded within the advanced recruitment CRM to allow recruitment teams to effectively search and report on this information. Real-time configurable dashboards ensure data is easily accessible and opportunities are never missed.

Roderick Smyth, Group Chief Strategy and Product Officer, Bond, comments, “This is  the first time that we have aligned product releases to be on the same Adapt engine for both EMEA and the US as we become a more globalized organization, and underlining our long-term investment in AdaptSuite. Staffing companies across the U.S. can be confident that Bond’s software built with over 40 years’ industry expertise and clients’ insights will offer them unrivalled competitive advantage.”

To coincide with AdaptSuite’s new interface and launch of AdaptUX to US direct hire agencies, a newly reskinned Bond US website – www.bond-us.com – goes live today incorporating a fresh, modern aesthetic to the web presence. The new website has a minimalist, clean design and features screenshots of each product within electronic devices for a more realistic view of the software.

Reconfigured web navigation helps guide visitors to the staffing technology solution best suited for their business needs. While AdaptSuite offers a front and back office solution for temporary staffing operations, AdaptUX helps recruiters excel at making direct placements, with both systems offering cutting-edge features within the staffing technology space:

• Enhanced screen design: the latest research of how user’s eyes actually move around software screens and absorb information underpins the software design. Key items, including menus and reminders, are located for optimum user experience.
• More intuitive system navigation: Menu and task-bar navigation optimized to deliver information much earlier within recruitment cycle processes; reducing navigation time and increasing recruiter efficiency.
• Sliding menu sidebar: Expandable and collapsible side-bar enables maximum screen space for users, making navigation quicker and easier and refining user skill and dexterity.
• Enhanced record views with active previews: screens are designed to provide users with the most relevant information ‘at a glance’.
• New reminders/tasks/appointment views: Visual alerts and smart drop-down views enable users to quickly and easily identify which activities are scheduled each day or overdue; ensuring opportunities are never missed.
• Integrated task and calendar management system: Updated in real-time, the fully integrated task and calendar management system ensures established appointments are accurate throughout recruitment organizations and enables one-click scheduling.

Smyth continues, “It’s an exciting day for Bond as we announce two significant product releases: AdaptSuite v4 and AdaptUX 2.5. For the first time in Bond’s history, the US and EMEA versions of Adapt are on the same engine and release schedule, which is an exciting milestone as we begin to truly leverage our global footprint and resource. Plus our refreshed US website looks far slicker detailing our new products and the value our software delivers to the staffing industry.”

Bond International Software and TempBuddy, award-winning contingent workforce management innovator, were selected for acquisition in 2016 by Symphony Technology Group (STG), who have a significant portfolio of organizations across the human capital space.  In June 2017, TempBuddy and Bond announced their merger with Erecruit, the leading innovator in enterprise staffing software, VMS and onboarding solutions for large staffing firms, creating the industry’s most complete end-to-end staffing platform.
