The platform is incredibly easy to navigate and use. It gives us a great window into how someone will perform in their interviews and shifting to live coding interviews has been game changing. > > **Cons**: In the interviews the video aspect isn't great and could potentially be smoother if it ran through Google Meet instead. > > Hugely positive. The team are great and very responsive, they are as invested as we are to innovate and overcome challenges and this makes for a fantastic partnership. Working with them has allowed us to run new processes, have reliable data to back up changes and trust in what we are trying to build - together. Excellent value for money, helping us to save vast amounts whilst not faltering on quality. ----- ### "Hackerank Review" — 4.0/5 > **Andy** | *1 July 2026* | Gambling & Casinos | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use - so easy to setup a new test, even without development expertise. The ATS integration is also very handy. The Interview or pair programming tests offer a great insight into a candidates technical ability and also how they take onboard technical direction. The customer service is also good - always happy to help and talk through any issues/blockers. > > **Cons**: Whilst the ATS integration is good it would be better if it include the setup of Interviews rather than just take home tests. > > Really positive, the platform is super easy to use. I have gathered feedback from across the business which is also very positive. ----- ### "Great product, super customer service" — 5.0/5 > **Matthew** | *30 January 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Amazing customer service helping us maximise the value we get. Candidates enjoy the interview structure as it allows more creativity and the huge range of questions is helpful. Hackerrank's ability to be deployed at scale is also unmatched > > **Cons**: There are some limitations when it comes to anti-cheating but it is quickly taking steps to fix them ----- ### "A Powerful Platform for Technical Hiring" — 5.0/5 > **Breejesh** | *5 March 2026* | Security & Investigations | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about HackerRank is its comprehensive coding environment and large library of programming challenges that help developers practice and improve their skills. The platform makes it easy to create and customize coding tests for different roles, which is very useful for technical hiring. The live coding interview feature is also smooth and interactive, allowing candidates and interviewers to collaborate in real time. Overall, it provides a structured and practical way to evaluate programming ability across multiple technologies. > > **Cons**: One drawback of HackerRank is that the pricing for advanced recruiting features can be relatively high for small teams or startups. There could also be more flexibility in the bundles of test takers allowed, which would make the platform more accessible for organizations with varying hiring needs. Additionally, customer support response times could be improved in some cases to provide quicker assistance when issues arise. > > Overall, my experience with HackerRank has been positive. It is a powerful platform for coding practice, technical assessments, and developer skill evaluation. The platform’s problem library and live coding interview tools make it valuable for both learners and organizations conducting technical hiring. While the interface and pricing could be improved, it remains one of the most reliable platforms for coding challenges and developer assessments. ----- ### "Hackerrank review" — 5.0/5 > **Rajul** | *18 June 2026* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: \* Scalable technical assessments that allow evaluation of large candidate pools efficiently. \* Objective and standardized evaluation, helping reduce bias in the screening process. \* Wide library of role-based questions across coding, SQL, AI/ML, security, and other technical domain > > **Cons**: Extremely hard DSA \* Competitive programming questions \* Questions that feel unrelated to the actual role > > Overall, our experience with HackerRank has been positive. The platform has enabled us to efficiently assess technical talent at scale through standardized and objective evaluations. Its extensive question library, assessment customization options, and integrity features have helped improve the quality of candidate screening while reducing manual effort ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/143549/hackerrank?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/143549/hackerrank) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
