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

  • TextUs is easy to use and we get a good response to our messages. Support is quick to respond to issues. Our account manager is wonderful - helpful and provides proactive communication.

Cons

  • We have had some unforeseen issues that took a while to resolve. Better communication from leadership needed at times.
