Credit Check on Potential Tenant

How do you do a credit check on a potential tenant you are trying to screen? Where do you go? And can you do it for cheap or free?

I personally love using Zillow rental manager. Basically everything through Zillow Rental Management. You can get credit report, national background check, tailor a lease application, and even collect rent through it. 

It's beneficial to tenants/applicants too because they pay a 1 time fee of like $30-$40 and can apply to many properties as opposed to ~$30-$50 per application.
