VITAY review
A reference-checking platform built for measurable recruiter workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
VITAY is reference-checking software for recruiters, staffing agencies, employers, and HR teams. It manages reference requests through email and SMS, supports customizable question sets, and sends automated reminders when responses are late. References can respond through a web- and mobile-friendly application without logging in. The product is particularly suited to recruiting teams that need operational visibility alongside reference collection.
Workflow and reporting depth are central to VITAY. Teams can synchronize ATS data, connect with Bullhorn, Erecruit, and Salesforce, upload candidates in bulk, and use API documentation to integrate reference workflows with other systems. Analytics cover turnaround time, completion rate, and recruiter productivity, while reference results can be exported as PDF or Excel reports. Client branding on reports adds a presentation option for teams sharing results externally.
VITAY also adds controls intended to support reference integrity, including multi-point fraud detection using IP and device signals. Pricing is handled through a sales conversation rather than published plan tiers, so the buying process is oriented toward organizations evaluating fit with their recruiting workflow. Choose VITAY if mixed-channel reminders, ATS connectivity, fraud signals, and operational reporting are important. A simpler reference-checking tool may be a better fit for teams that only need questionnaires and response collection without analytics or integrations.
