We noticed there weren’t a lot of reviews of this company while researching for background screening services. Our Check People review explain show this provider works and outlines some of the pluses and minuses of using their services.
Searches a Wealth of Sources
Check People searches a myriad of social media sites as well as official public records. This proved to us that they explore innumerable venues to provide users with the information they need.
Stellar Security
The site checks for security by asking users to do captcha confirmation and agree to not misuse the information they get. We are sure using their system doesn’t entail the risk of data-mining bots. You can search by phone number or name. Once you’ve completed your search, you’ll get a list of the results showing the location, age, and relatives of your potential matches. This abundance of information helps you choose the right person from the list. Often, there will be multiple entries because many people are likely to have the same name as your target.
Ease of Use
The intuitive menu at the top of the page lets you switch between different categories, including related people, past addresses, personal data, and marriage and divorce records. Of course, there’s also a tab for criminal history. The people search function appears to be the same as the background check one.
Exclusively Verifiable Data Sources
Check People can find any public-record criminal history data. Corporations, state agencies, and social networks are among their verifiable data sources. The search engine sifts through hundreds of millions of arrest and personal records that are publicly available. It can find information about names, addresses, liens, civil judgments, lawsuits, and bankruptcies, as well as warrants and sex offender details. The tool also finds occupational data, business connections, property ownership, property assets, and financial records. Users can get information about a search target’s education or even military history.
Pros
The company offers one free search with very accurate results. It also searches the Deep Web and accesses hard to find details, including social media profiles, links, websites, or blog postsrelated to the subject of your query.
The site is visually appealing with legible font and an elegant, tasteful color scheme. You don’t need to navigate to a specific page to get information about someone. There is an easy to use search bar at the top of the page.
Simple Report Layout
In order to retrieve relevant results, Check People’s search tool sifts through a seemingly endless number of data points with ease. Their concise yet comprehensive reports come in neat pdf format.
Informative Content
This background screening company discusses its tools’ use cases on the website. It’s refreshing to see a business admit its technology’s shortcomings and provide smart workarounds.
Cons
Users have complained about a cumbersome cancellation process. You need to cancel your free trial within five days unless you want to be upgraded to a paid membership automatically. We found they could have done a better job of clarifying their pricing.
