Developed by a Recruitment business for a Recruitment business
Written originally in 1988 for a UK Recruitment Company, it was re-written in 1999 and has evolved over the years. The same Recruitment business has been associated with the product and is still used today. For many years, it has been the intention to provide the system to external organisations and by using the Cloud solution, this can make it possible.
It is owned and operated by TowerPoint Co Limited in the UK and can be made available in the Cloud as the most practical way of using the software as it uses several Servers with failover to provide a virtual continuous service. The system is very large with many facilities; most been developed by Recruitment Companies using the software. The practical solution from an operational viewpoint is to have the system provided online so that it can be updated from a single location.
All data is the ownership of the Licensee of the software and can be exported to a set of files if deciding to move elsewhere. Backup of the data is automatically provided, including copies off site.
The system is divided into 2 major parts: Candidates and Clients, providing a CRM system with people’s information. There are numerous ways of searching both Candidates and Clients.
