Why Traditional Background Screening Companies are Slow:

  1. Middlemen and multiple companies: Large background screening companies often go through multiple intermediaries before reaching the actual court researchers, which causes unnecessary delays. When you try to inquire about the reasons for these delays, their customer service is usually unresponsive or unhelpful.

  2. Inefficient processes: Traditional background screening companies often rely on outdated methods and technologies, which contribute to their slow turnaround times.

  3. Poor customer service: As seen in the reviews on Google, Trustpilot, and G2.com, these companies have a track record of subpar customer service, with ratings often below 3 stars.
