Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I love that my clients get to be anonymous especially because they’re living with HIV/AIDS. It’s allowing me to reach them in a more personalized way that eliminates fear & stigma.
  • Very easy to send text messages and manage the responses. It's so simple that anyone could use it to reach their audience.
  • Community was a great way for us to take advantage of SMS to reach out to our clients whom we previously were only able to connect with over one medium at scale being email.
  • I love Community and use it all the time to communicate with fans of my writing. Recently, I had to contact customer service with an issue that they quickly and efficiently took care of. The follow-up to my inquiry was exceptional and above and beyond.
  • Community.com enables businesses and brands to communicate effectively with their audience on a media that has very high open rate, and enabling compliant opt-outs.

Cons

  • Some features are only available with the upgrade. I wish I could do auto reply for certain group sign ups.
  • I haven't really played with all of the functions, but it seems like pretty simple software.
  • The ONLY thing Community doesn't have is a way for our clients to select which 'tag' they'd like to opt-in for without our direct involvement to make it happen. Ex: we have three markets in which we operate and people that sign up for our texts prefer only a couple of those markets rather than them all. They can send us a text back with what market they prefer, but at that point, there is unneeded friction by having to have myself go back in there to manually input their desired market or 'tag'.
  • I can’t think of any cons either for me or my subscribers!
  • More app features on Community.com could be helpful.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Influitive has been a leader in this space and provides tons of thought leadership and guidance on how to build and manage an effective advocacy and engagement program. Additionally, they deliver webinars and materials to keep administrators "on their game" throughout the year and highlight the successes of their customers. The tool itself is relatively flexible to meet individual needs (can turn features on & off, sign-on feature options, etc.) and has enough pre-baked content to get you going. The Influitive team is also highly responsive, whether to smaller technical questions or larger strategic ones.
  • - Intuitive user interface. - Has saved us so much time trying to identify advocates - Super quick and helpful support (both CSM and support team) - It feels like they really listen to their customers and the feedback they are given. - Overall an incredible and helpful platform.
  • You can really grow an advocacy program with this tool. I like the gamification and automation of rewards. The UX is really nice and you can now do more with branding your hub. Some of the new features are super helpful - like lenses, to be able to see exactly what the hub looks like in the eyes of your customer - this was lacking before.
  • Influitive allows my company to have a customer-driven space for our most active and excited clients to promote our products. Customer service is incredible.
  • Influitive is a great way to organize and empower your organizations top customers, and to keep them happy and engaged. This pool of customers is the best resource for many things from product feedback to references and Influitive helps make it all happen.

Cons

  • Integrations can be difficult to work with, so if that's important to you, get your technical folks involved before making a decision.
  • - There are some minor feature upgrades that we could get faster but working for a software company, I know that product updates can take time.
  • The support has been lacking in the past, however, I have noticed significant improvements in the past year. The account management teams seem more customer-oriented as well. Running 2 hubs from one instance proves challenging - the UI of the admin side of the hub makes managing challenges difficult, visually. The custom reporting is complicated.
  • Influitive is constantly re-evaluating features, putting out beta testing, and growing with feedback.
  • Not much to say for cons - there are little issues that come up, but Influitive is pretty good about listening to customer feedback.
