"Great tool for link shortening"
What do you like best about Bitly?

Bitly is easy to use. We make a link for each of our events, uploads, and documents so we can track how popular or how often things are accessed. We've also gone one step further and began utilizing their new pages feature which allows us to create event pages for our events that run like an app! It's convenient to know what people care about based on the number of downloads. This has streamlined a lot of events and programs for our nonprofit Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

Limits of QR code downloads could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simply the Easiest and Best Way to Shorten Websites"
What do you like best about Bitly?

I love the ease of using Bitly! It couldn't be easier to use! Bitly helps me when I am sending emails to my coworkers about everything I do. I also love using Bitly to help my coworkers if they need to send out a long link to parents/each other. Using Bitly helps the people they are sending the long links understand what they are clicking on and makes it easier to understand. I use it almost weekly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

I don't like that I can't change the website once it is shortened unless I have a pro account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bitly is Good for Business"
What do you like best about Bitly?

I like that it allows me to track clicks and provides attribution across many different channels to provide data on the exact sources and specific campaigns. The platform is also very easy to implement, integrate and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitly?

The only things I dislike is the link management costs and the dependency on a third party platform. But these are by no means deal breakers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
