"Great lead generation tool with a lot packed in..."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Drift?

Drift was our first time using a live chat tool, and so far has delivered on all fronts. Our reps love using it and being able to interact with prospects in real time, and we've been able to generate a significant amount of leads and pipeline through a combination of the chat bot & and our reps managing conversations. The interface is easy to use and provides a lot of information to help with determining who a prospect is, the account they belong to, and any previous conversations we've had with them.

The customization options are great, and we have been able to continually modify the playbook and chat routing to optimize for both customer experience and also speed-to-lead process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drift?

I wish that Drift had a simple solution for offline chats, similar to a ticketing system where prospects could fill out a form and ask to be contacted at a later date. However, our Drift CSM team has been very helpful and worked with us on numerous solutions that could solve for offline chats and how to make sure they are surfaced quickly to the reps who manage Drift.

"Overall Very Convenient"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Drift?

I love the visibility into site visitors, even if they don't interact with the chat bot. It gives you some great leads that are actively engaging with your company. It's very easy to use and I find myself actively checking the app throughout the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drift?

For our team personally, the lead routing is a bit off. We are sometimes looped into chats that have nothing to do with our territories. The support we've been given from drift however has been useful and they're working to fix these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Drift is a Top Lead Revenue Driver for Us"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Drift?

Drift has been a top lead source for us since we implemented it over a year and half ago. We are easily seeing the ROI on the platform, and its been a force for our business. We love that we are able to connect with our prospects live on the website, schedule meetings and we see that a lot of these prospects are ready to purchase.

Overall, its been a fantastic product for us! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drift?

It can be hard to set up at first with your chats. However with our CSM team, we found that being able to rely on them to build playbooks helped us to get up and running quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Drift removes the element of proximity from you and your customers"
5/5
What do you like best about Drift?

Until we started using Drift, I had typically seen website chat bots as an annoyance. What I quickly realized was that the drift functionality allows you to directly interface with customers seeking out your products or solutions that you might not already have. Not only are you able to responsively engage with individuals at the exact time that they are thinking about your solutions versus after the fact, but you also gain valuable insights akin to primary market research. Additionally, I had no idea how comfortable a prospective customer was in talking with what they believed to be a robot versus a human being. From an operational perspective, there are few companies that provide the level of support we enjoy from the Drift Team both with implementation and integration to building the playbook of automated responses. We wish that we had built in the functionality when we were first launching hour new site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drift?

It isn't so much what I dislike about drift but, rather, the lack of understanding of our business that it exposed. (A good thing.) Prior to implementation, we had no idea how much we had under-resourced the project. We had no idea exactly how much pent up demand there was amongst prospective patients and customers looking to directly engage with the company. The solution has since paid for itself multiple times over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sarah Haberman of Drift

So much detail here, thank you for your thoughtful and thorough review! 🙌 Sounds like your team is doing an incredible job with Drift, keep it up!

"Amazing software for helping prospects engage in live chats/book meetings on their own time"
5/5
What do you like best about Drift?

Drift has helped me engage with prospects live, providing a more authentic touch than a general AI bot. If I'm away from my computer, it'll allow the prospect to schedule directly through my calendar link, instead of having to go through another contact in our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drift?

Nothing! The software has been easy to use and learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
