Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I loved how easy to use the software is. It's simple, friendly to look at, and effective. Also, the user interface is very easy to navigate. The responding on texts is easy to use, and great that it comes with Mobile App.
  • SMS marketing is a way of marketing that never gets old. Using Simple texting I reach customers and leads directly on their uncrowded inbox. It works pretty great for regular marketing. You can also send transaction or promotional messages.
  • Simple Texting is a well-known SMS marketing platform. - It gives the best auto personalized SMS. (Custom field option) - The auto-responder SMS is my favorite. - User interest tracking using its analytics.
  • SimpleTexting gives you a traditional but effective way to reach customers with your business marketing campaign or for promotional. The setup was hassle-free. I liked its ability to send personalized texts without writing each time. The insights are decent.
  • I liked its integration with Hubspot, to send SMS with integrated manageable CRM. Bulk SMS marketing can be possible on SmartTexting platform. Also helpful in helpdesk to give a regular update on their tickets.

Cons

  • I really wish that this had some analytics, where I could see what campaigns got the most frequent and rapid responses.
  • No cons. In my moderate usage Simple texting does well.
  • Not at all. I'm impressed with this tool, never experienced problems.
  • In my campaign usage, it gives me a good response.
  • No cons, it does SMS marketing job excellently.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Being able to text keeps conversations. Transferred from Zipwhip easily. Price is competitive. Add new features at times/
  • Easy to use, great support staff, fairly priced, and highly productive We did a demo and got all our answers. Plus they didn't even try to get me in a contract, their product and service are their contract. How refreshing...
  • I like that it's easy to text multiple numbers at one time. I also like the ability to compose a template and use that template multiple times to multiple numbers. I work closely with HR and I help with our hiring process. Many of our applicants' voice mails on their cell phones are either not set up, or their voice mailbox is full. Many applicants screen their calls and just don't answer. But everyone checks their text messages and is more likely to respond to a text message rather than answer a call. It's easy to keep track of things.
  • I like that different profiles can be set so that in the office we can see who has responded to whom.

Cons

  • We are Zipwhip customers so a big drop off. Adding attachments is really poor compared to Zipwhip. And not being able to text to a group as little as 2 or 3 is ridiculous.
  • not many cons, they do exactly what they said, and I love that.
  • I don't like that you can't delete messages. They just fill up the page. That's the first thing I see when I open Text Request, a long list of old messages that I have already read and responded to. A lot of my messages are "no thank you". I would like to be able to quickly see useful messages. A lot of the messages are junk and I would like to be able to delete them and not archive them. I feel it's wasted space and time to have to keep scrolling through old and useless messages.
  • I don't like that when you search for a particular person, the options don't narrow down automatically (ie, without having to press enter on the search)
