Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The cost and feature set on the box were the only things that attracted us to it. It was meant to perform a lot of functions
  • It offers a platform to interact with the customer using SMS, live chat, and WhatsApp. It also offers insight and reporting on interactions. Gives great customer support for business.

Cons

  • Super buggy, useless support. Both email and sms went to spam
  • It worked great for me. Nothing to share about the con.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It used to be a good service a few years ago - it was a CLX Communication brand in the past. After the acquisitions, it got only worse.
  • They appeared to have all the functions I needed in their API but unfortunately, because of their horrendous support, we never got up and running with them.

Cons

  • They claim SMSes have been delivered and charge you even if the SMSes do not reach the destination—that is totally unacceptable. After some communication ping-pong, the service recommends resetting the headset! The problem persists for a few months now.
  • As mentioned above, we never got "launched" with Sinch, and it was completely on them that we didn't.
