    "Easiest Way to Communicate"

    Posted 2022-08-04

    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.

    Cons: At this time during the free trial that I have used I haven't had any cons happen.

    Overall: Overall, if you are wanting a way for your clients, users, or visitors to contact you easily other than just a phone call, Podium is a great product to use.

    "Instant communication with unique features"

    Posted 2021-07-02

    Pros: 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.

    Cons: I'm not too fond of that without running the application, the messages don't arrive, I have to open the application, and it starts to connect to receive the Podium.

    Overall: In the company, we use it to create communication groups and send large files right there. Other platforms do not have the same capacity and quality of sending files or documents. It is highly reliable and keeps the group together, essential for any person who wants a potent communication tool. It has a great scope of social interaction that is reflected in the quality of sending emoticons and files. It works very well, and you will like it to the fullest.

    "Very superior product"

    Posted 2020-11-05

    Pros: This is by far the best review gathering platform for Google around. I think they are actually backed by Google.

    Cons: They are the most expensive option for managing reviews by far.

    Overall: Podium is good at helping get reviews but the overall cost will cost an arm and a leg for a monthly cost.
