How do you manage recruiting in your companies?

Question

To prepare for the launch of my product, RecruitPage ( https://www.producthunt.com/products/recruit-page ), I carried out a market analysis on the mechanisms used by companies to manage applications for their job offers and what I found was this, on a sample of about 100 companies from 3 to 50 employees, Italian and German:

1) Generally speaking, there is a lot of disorganisation in the management and filing of candidates' CVs.
2) It is often difficult for HR staff to keep track of the status of recruitment, especially as information on candidates is often fragmented across several platforms
3) companies with fewer employees (and consequently smaller turnovers) often do not use application management software because it is considered too expensive
4) Many companies use the contact forms on their websites to request CVs from candidates, but often emails are lost because the contact forms do not work. Apparently webmasters often forget to configure the email sending correctly :)

I would be curious to compare this slice of information that I obtained on my reference sample with what happens within your companies. You who work with digital on a daily basis (otherwise you would not be here), how do you deal with this issue in your companies?

Huge corps usually do recruitments in many rounds. Still, for startups, it is more "personal" and I have experience with these starting companies – they typically reach out to somebody from their initiative because they previously have seen the good work of that person. So I would also differentiate the stage of the company.
