Hi Alison, I am glad you found the review useful. I have not used either tool for a year or two. Our company simply did not re-up either one. I think that had to do with the economy changing and us tightening our belts in terms of tools combined with the fact that we found Infogist less and less useful as time went on. I'll explain.

One of the things that I liked best about Talenthook was that I could run a query at the time when I wanted to run a query and it didn't take me forever to do so. When we went to Infogist, I found the app to be very finicky. It would run extremely long query cycles and when you'd cancel you didn't always get the résumé results you expected.

I have had some follow up chances to view Talenthook and they've done some very nice things with the interface. If they maintained the functionality that made them successful, then they'd get my thumbs up vote for sure.

Actually, TalentHook Sphere was released in January and some of the major enhancements included:

* The addition of hundreds of more resources (now over 1850 resources, more than any US competitor)

* Detailed and Extended search criteria matching all major pay resume sites

* Shared candidate tracking among users

We also feature a variety of price structures to fit any budget. User feedback has been positive and we've got more features coming in 2009.

Talenthook was built on a spidering engine developed almost a decade ago; how or why they claim cutting edge is beyond me.

The new version released about a month ago is simply an update to the interface while the rest of the program is largely left intact.

So you get a slightly prettier interface (that is forced on users and still beta and buggy) while paying a 40% increase in subscription rates for a "new version".
