What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an educational organization, we are trying to find new and innovative ways to reach both current and prospective students. Today's students aren't checking their email; however, they will read a text message. Using Text Em All, we can send messages directly to our students with all the action steps they need to get enrolled or stay on track with their college education.
"Compliance and Customer Service"
What do you like best about Text-Em-All?
My favorite part about Call-Em-All is the excellent attention to detail when it comes to compliance. It is so important to be on the "up and up" when it comes to making robocalls, and their diligence in making sure we are all in compliance is priceless. Also, the ability to see who has opted out of calls so we can update our own records is a helpful addition.
What do you dislike about Text-Em-All?
There is a slight learning curve in the upload and processing of calls. Newcomers need training, so we have decided to have delegates within each area to ensure calls go out successfully.
What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
We save time and money by sending out robocalls rather than having individuals make personalized calls as the first point of contact. This is also an excellent way to send out quick surveys or information in a timely manner to our students.
"Efficient, streamlined, and easy to use system for communicating with a wide audience."

"I use Call-em-all to fill my classroom with new students"
What do you like best about Text-Em-All?
I need to acquire 10 students to convene a class at the community college. I have successfully used Call-em-All for 7 years to call and remind prospective students when a new class is beginning each month. The ability to record a message and blast it out to all of the students in message form is great. I like the fact that they can replay the phone message and write down my directions to the college.
What do you dislike about Text-Em-All?
I dislike that I cannot see more of my recorded messages in the audio library. I like to use the good voice recordings when in a hurry to get a message out there. it took so long to craft a good message and I would love to save time by reusing the old message.
Recommendations to others considering Text-Em-All:
Use it. Whoever uses the most technology makes the most money.

Being able to create a call from scratch and have it delivered the same day.
What do you dislike about Text-Em-All?
There really are not any downsides to the product - we have really enjoyed having it.
Recommendations to others considering Text-Em-All:
Learn how to manipulate the speed that the calls are delivered (frequency) and make sure that any call you send out is done at a time when staff is in the office to receive return calls.
What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Call-Em-All to tackle the tremendous number of students who need to be reminded to make payment on their account prior to being dropped from their courses. We absolutely do not have the manpower on staff to reach out to all of these students manually.
"Cost effective, efficient, and effective way to communicate"
What do you like best about Text-Em-All?
Easy to pull in a list of specific contacts to communicate a message to. Easy to record the message. Easy interface. It just works. Great reporting feature also. Easily changed, quickly. Nice to be able to look at previous messaging campaigns to pull for future use.
What do you dislike about Text-Em-All?
Nothing I can think of. I wish we could use the text messaging function, but we are having internal discussins about legality of use based on our current internal systems.
Recommendations to others considering Text-Em-All:
Try out the free tests and test it exactly how you would like to use it. Keep message very specific to JUST one thing, to-the-point. Imagine how you would like to receive the message/reminder. Use someone with a nice speaking voice.
What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reminding our student population about important dates, deadlines, and reminders about payments, registration, and other important reminders to them. It's another way to grab their attention.

I love how easy it is to track communication! When I have a parent conference or meeting with an administrator, it is so simple to pull up call logs and message history!

What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was told by my supervisors I needed to contact parents for all student tardies, behavior issues and grade issues. I also want to contact parents for positive things. With 211 students, this is impossible to make that many phone calls. Through call-em-all, it's easy!
"Great way to get information out efficiently!"
What do you like best about Text-Em-All?
It is a huge time saver for us when we need to contact a large group of students. The functionality is also really simple to use.
What do you dislike about Text-Em-All?
We just have to be careful about the kinds of information we put in the messages due to privacy regulations. We deal with finances, but we can't put specifics in a voicemail or text message, so we have to keep those messages more general.
What problems is Text-Em-All solving and how is that benefiting you?
The texting has been a great tool to get in touch with students who otherwise ignore emails or phone calls from us. Especially for younger students. Again, it also saves a ton of time when we need to contact a larger group.
