"Good tool, but limited support or clarity on limits"

3/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

I appreciate the ability to re-direct links or rename links. To keep branding consistent, we moved away from using individual links for each event and instead use the same link each year for recurring events. All we change is the back end URL so direct to the new landing page for the event each year. This has also been helpful when unexpected errors required us to redirect away from a location we had originally planned to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

I have not received good support when I have questions or concerns. For instance, I could not get clarity on the number of redirects or unique links I could make each month. I was unaware these limits even existed until I needed them and found I had reached that limit. This caused real problems with our marketing and I couldn't get contact with anyone on the bitly team who could help me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main platform we use for hosting events, job postings, etc., creates very long and ugly URLs. These aren't a big concern when they can be embedded into a link, but this obviously doesn't work for printed materials, and also makes it hard to share the link address easily or in a memorable way. In order to print relevant and useful materials, bitly cleans up those links in a way that we can provide a short, easy-to-remember link. Being able to customize the links into a logical acronym or word is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great offering but much higher cost compared to the competition (for my purposes anyway)"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

It's accessible and tough to break! The automated creation from a spreadsheet of short URLs was amazing, and the free trial of the pro version worked brilliantly. The custom URL option was great, and really made my links unique and identified them as my brand. Online portal was easy to navigate, and the Chrome extension made a big difference when just grabbing a link from the web. Being able to remember the URL for my Vcard download and recite it easily was neat, and made me look very professional! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

It's hard to criticise anything about it except for the price. Unfortunately (probably because they were the first) they have a lot of competition standing on their shoulders, and therefore able to do it cheaper. For someone like me with a need for just occasional custom URL shortening, I couldn't justify the price, over the competition which offered the same thing for free (for now, I guess). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bitly:

I think if you're in the market for a URL shortener which you can absolutely rely on, and don't mind paying for that privilege (as well as being universally recognised and respected) then Bitly is the way to go. Whilst I know there are free options, the tease of having the custom URL was too great a perk to miss out on by going back to the free version after the trial (unless I misunderstood the offer). So yes, I'd recommend it, and I didn't even scratch the surface of the tracking and reporting features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to write down important URLs like my vcard, my CRM backend login page, things like that, where otherwise I would have needed to save the link somewhere (and wouldn't dream of typing it out - I'd have made so many typos!). Then once you get bitten by the 'shortening' bug, I started shortening everything. I make online videos, so always need to shorten the delivery URL, but then I thought - why not shorten the Proposal delivery URL, and the invoice URL, etc etc, etc!

"Service of record for short links but limited"

3/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

Bitly is definitely the market leader in short links and link tracking Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

$8 a month minimum cost in Australia here is not worth it for a basic service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bitly:

Bitly free users will quickly find a lot of the easy to remember custom links are already taken so will need to use obscure words or purchase custom domains Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bitly helps to shorten and track links Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool, hits where it hurts the most"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

The ability to see all of the user's links in one place! That may be because we all had a single user ID and a password.

The site was pretty quick while navigating. UI looks simple and easy for basic stuff till you dig deep.

Analytics were beter as compared to other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

Well, no customization is allowed to the Shortlinks/bit links once created! Of course, every tool provides customization to the landing URL/destination URL. And that was all with Bitly.

The automatic link creation as soon as you paste the Long URL was a terrible feature. Before I could make changes to the URL/short link, boom! The bitlink is already created, and I can't change it at all!

The only available QR code export format was .PNG; we had to use 3rd party tools to enhance the QR code for larger scalable billboard prints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bitly:

Talk with them about the features first, accordingly make the decision. Since they offer at much lower prices, you can always start here.

Also, please check the customer support and policies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

We just wanted a tool to shorten SharePoint links to publish them in the workplace and digital media.

QR codes, too, helped reach customers and run promotions.

Light analytics were a bit helpful to gain knowledge on if or not a promo is working in the first 2 days and if it didn't, we would switch the landing URL so that the promo gets going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Nithin, I apologize on behalf of Bitly for link customization limitations, the automatic link creation, and QR code exports available in PNG (we also have SVG file type). We appreciate your feedback and I will pass your comment(s) to our internal team in regards to improving the Bitly experience in the future.

"Decent enough for the free account"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

I like that there is minimal customisation for the shortURL + the ability to see insights like number of clicks, source of clicks (e.g. email, SMS, etc.), and location of clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

Not sure I'm a fan of the UI/UX. It feels awkward for me to use and navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bitly:

If you need a URL shortener, this is a pretty simple one to use that replaces goo.gl after it got discontinued. It's a slight upgrade from goo.gl as it has some bells & whistles like analytics and domain customisation if you get a paid upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helps me to shorten URLs since goo.gl got discontinued. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"URL Management Tool"

3/5

What do you like best about Bitly?

For shortening the URLs, it is simple and quick. One of the best features is that you can customize your URL (basic features) without having a paid account. It has a lot more features than Google URL Shortner and creates links that are short and easy to remember. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

After customizing a URL, it's not possible to change the links which is unfortunate if you make an error or need to update a link. The free account overall is great but I dislike the paid options--they are very expensive without any basic plans available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bitly provides content analytics on how the URLs are being used and allows you to keep track of clicks--which is helpful for tracking email links and click/open rates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
