Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • The best part of this software is that you can handle all of it from your phone as if you were just texting someone. If someone hops on your website and has any questions or concerns a notification comes up on the bottom corner of the page providing a way for the visitor to contact the company. These messages do go straight to the phone of the the individual over the website, which makes the communication personable and quick.
  • Podium has an excellent interface; it has a high quality in sending files, I can send images or audios without losing quality. Besides that, I use it to create more effective communication and with guaranteed security conditions. Podium cloud is incredible for storing information.
  • This is by far the best review gathering platform for Google around. I think they are actually backed by Google.
  • To get all your reviews from different platforms makes it easier and saves time in the process. A very user friendly app which is easy to set up.
  • It makes interactions easy. Using only one platform we can reply to each and every messages. Google, Facebook, Instagram we can easily connect with our customer on any platform using this software. Responses very quickly. Simple and easy to use. Also we can check the history of any customers interaction.
  • Easy to use for both admins & users Efficient Review tracking Great dashboard for comprehensive view Integration with many platforms like Google, Facebook Automated Review invites feature Responsive customer service
  • The interface for both the administrator and customer is very simple and attractive. I can easily send someone a review invite in within few seconds that goes directly to the customer's phone. It's very effective and quick.
  • Clients can leave Google locals and Facebook review with some clicks. Which makes your business get recognized. Attractive and clean overall user interface. Easy to respond on negative feedback.
  • We've used this with a lot of our clients and it's a great way to send out sms reviews on the go and live chat on your website.
  • Easy to use and very simplistic. Encompasses everything you'd need to set up reviews to gather from customers.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • One of the things we love about ReputationStacker is how easy it is to roll out to new locations. As soon as a store opens, we're already collecting reviews. That early momentum helps our locations build trust faster and gives us an edge over competitors that are still trying to build their online reputation (or aren't doing anything at all).
  • What I like most about ReputationStacker is how easy it is to use. We just connected it to our CRM on day 1 and it gets us reviews automatically for all of our locations.
  • ReputationStacker is makes reputation management easy across all of our tutoring locations. It automates review requests and keeps everything organized. We get a lot of reviews using ReputationStacker and the dashboard makes it easy to track performance.
  • Reputation stacker was really easy to set up and connect to our CRM. Now whenever we close a case it automatically follows up with the client and asks for a Google review.

Cons

  • There is no part of it that I don't like because it is well designed and always works.
  • There's nothing bad about it so there's nothing that I don't like about it.
  • I like pretty much all of it. It works perfectly for managing our reputation.
  • It took a minute to figure out that it can't push the first party customer feedback directly to Google, but once I figured out how it asks our clients for a Google review directly then it all made sense.
