I'm a recruiter and I am really enjoying the Sense app. Easy to use and 'the beach ball' shows up on all the right websites including bullhorn (recruiting database) and linkedin. It also syncs to my phone.
In terms of features/functionality, sense definitely has some features it still needs to work on, like I can't just type in the name of a contact I've been chatting with. I'll type John Doe and it'll show conversations I've had with Jane, Robin, and Alex but not John Doe. That's ok though because I mostly search candidates on bullhorn and linkedin and it can pull names from the website and even auto-import the phone number for me. If I need to text multiple peopel simultaneously, it can even automatically import a list of names and numbers I have pulled up for me. The features I'd like to see are wants, not needs. The core app is solid and easy to use.
Sense has also been highly responsive on feedback/feature requests and in the past 3 years I've watched the app improve tremendously. This easily bumped me from 4/5 star review for a nearly complete product to 5/5 stars. :)
