	Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros The core product did what it promised. iMessage outreach got real replies instead of getting ignored like green-bubble texts. Onboarding was straightforward, and I didn't have many technical problems. I like it because it makes networking so easy, providing my contact information in a simple and eye-catching way. I really like how detailed our onboarding was. So far I've loved all the features it offers to customize it. I love that this device was so easy to set up. Easy to use. Get the "ohh ahh" factor when a prospect/client uses the technology. Your information get's saved into the prospect/client phonebook. The days of your business card getting thrown out are long gone. How easy it is to update my page and contact information. The variety of products that you can use to share your information. The card brings efficiency and ease to my networking. Quick networking is the best kind of networking. This card allows me to share the information I want my connections to have within seconds and allows me to focus on making as many connections as possible. Cons Zero loyalty to existing customers. Linq decided sales outreach isn't the business they want to be in anymore, so they're decommissioning my lines on October 1 and told me on September 24. When I asked for more time, the answer was that the date came from leadership and isn't changing. A week is not a transition plan. It's an eviction notice. I would like to have the option to move the image within the crop space, I wish there were more customization options. Sometimes the card takes a long time to be read. It cost money, but besides that, it's pretty cool. I am struggling to make the integrations work. It could be me but I can Microsoft exchange to work and connect. After having this card for over 3 years, the NFC chip still works great but can be a bit slow to recognize on phones. The QR code included on my card fixes that problem and leaves me with very little time. I also have some slight peeling on the laminate that is on the card around the corners, but nothing to ruin my experience.
