**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2022

The thing which needs improvement is the quality and pace of the support provided by SweetIQ. The time to bring in the changes is frustrating. SweetIQ needs to bring it's house in order to get acceptance.

  ### 6. SweetIQ Experience

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matthew I. | Social Media Specialist/Athletic Trainer , Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 08, 2022

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

SweetIQ had a really great dashboard with charts and graphs of social media performance and analytics, but was limited in monitoring and comparing performance of competitors.

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

SweetIQ was very user-friendly, but I wish that it had more data on competitors' performance and the ability to respond to reviews on Google, Facebook, etc. all from the platform.

**Recommendations to others considering SweetIQ:**

Compare prices and features of their product with competitors.

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SweetIQ was solving our problem of managing our location listings, providing data on social media performance, and posting to all of our clinic's social media and Facebook profiles.

  ### 8. SweetIQ for Listings + Reputation Management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 13, 2021

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

I like that there is a comprehensive dashboard where you can do everything in one place. The platform itself is easy enough to use, though some of the language used isn't as clear as I'd like and has caused some confusion. There were times I needed to access the FAQ section to figure out what to even call the task I was trying to accomplish. Otherwise, updates and review responses/Q&As are completed in real-time which is nice, as we have a retail arm of our business and changes need to happen quickly sometimes.

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

This may be entirely due to the package we have with SweetIQ/Uberall, but I feel that there isn't as much functionality as I'd like and Yelp is not integrated for our agreement. That has caused some frustration because all Yelp changes for our retail locations have to be made piecemeal and manually.

**Recommendations to others considering SweetIQ:**

To get the full range of functionality, I believe you'd need to up your package with them to max level. That said, we have had an amazing customer success rep who has made learning the platform and navigating it much easier. She is lovely to work with and always so responsive!

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are responding real-time to our customer reviews on Google (and we get a LOT of them). It's been a really helpful platform for reputation management and ensuring that customer reviews and questions are addressed in a timely and professional manner. We also had a lot of closings last year - some due to COVID, some more random (weather-related, etc.). We used SweetIQ/Uberall to make changes to our listings in those scenarios.

  ### 9. Best in class LLM software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark G. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2019

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

Honestly, beyond the tool itself, the customer service we receive as a reseller is second to none. I truly appreciate the effort this team makes to keep our clients in check and support our efforts to build our business. 

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

There's not much not to like. I've been working with this platform for over two years and the experience has been tremendous. If there's one thing we'd like to see happen soon, it's Waze integration. 

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Simply being able to offer my clients a best-in-class solution and explain why using SWIQ is beneficial to their business has allowed our business to grow significantly. The platform is also an excellent, low-cost way to bring in new clients, gain trust and offer other services.

  ### 10. SweetIQ Review

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dana  D. | GMB Account Manager , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2019

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

What I like best about SweetIQ is the format and funnel analysis, I like the way they built our dashboard for our clients. I also appreciate how my clients can keep track of all of their listings throughout all of the different directories.  

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

What I dislike most about SweetIQ is their customer support or lack thereof. It takes days to get a response and when I get a response, it's usually not very helpful. I think SweetIQ would be a much better platform if they had a better customer support team.

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SweetIQ Analytics help businesses see their progress on Google, which helps businesses thrive and grow.

  ### 11. Waste of Time

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2019

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

The idea behind SweetIq is great, being able to see the analytics for a business in one place is a really nice idea. Unfortunately SweetIQ seriously lacks in execution and even more so in their support. 

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

SweetIQ has many issues. Being able to see customer insights for a business tend to be unreliable when it come to IF they will show up. Support does not resolve issues in a timely manner (if ever) often issues can go on for months with no update. Features of their dashboard do not work as they should and often stop working. 

**Recommendations to others considering SweetIQ:**

Research other options out there. The lack of quality support is a major downfall. Things go wrong often and often the support staff is unable to fix the issue and unable to give an estimate of how long it will take to fix issues. SweetIQ is very unreliable when it comes to their own product.

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted a way to see insights from Google for multiple business locations that we manage. Unfortunately the insights are not always available through the SweetIQ platform. If it worked reliably, this would be a huge benefit to our company.  It worked fine for the first few months but eventually began to crumble apart. 

  ### 12. Never ever again...turn back now or face your doom

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2019

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

Nothing. This product rarely works, if at all. Support is noted as "24 hour support" but good luck reaching anyone to help you during the holiday season because the entire office is closed for weeks at a time. When you do hear back from support they tell you that you should see insights within 7 days, when the 7 days ends and you still do not see insights they send you another email saying that they will appear within a certain timeframe and so on and so forth. It's not uncommon for multiple issues to go unresolved for months at a time.

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

I'm sure I could write a small novel about all of the frustrations my company has had working with this company. Probably the worst part of working with this company was the ton of additional work that was added onto my workload because of having to correct the multiple errors they left on all of my clients listings, documenting all of those errors, recovering angry clients that were unhappy with their dashboard and also losing the clients that we could not recover. I spent more time putting out fires because of SweetIQ than being able to focus on my own assigned duties. Complete waste of time that neither myself or my colleagues can get back. Then after all of this, they offered to clean up the mess, that they made, for an additional cost. Ridiculous. 

**Recommendations to others considering SweetIQ:**

Don't do it. Use Yext.

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SweetIQ only added to our problems. Consequently, we have lost countless hours and lost multiple clients because of their negligence.

  ### 13. Platform is Functional, but the Service is Poor

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2018

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

The tool does a good job of managing locations and local rankings, as well as reviews. It has a lot of reporting data on local keywords and coverage. The review solicitation capabilities are standard and definitely more than what you could do on your own. The aggregator relationships and directory coverage helps.  

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

Our experience has been poor with the account managers. It takes a while to get a hold of one and the process for changes can take some time. We have had challenges getting information from representatives and having our issues addressed. 

**Recommendations to others considering SweetIQ:**

If you don't plan on contacting anyone, the tool is very productive. Learn to take things into your own hands when dealing with account managers. 

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have implemented a review strategy using SweetIQ and have gained local coverage on directories to 99%. The platform and tool works very well.

  ### 14. Sweet IQ is the best!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2018

**What do you like best about SweetIQ?**

Customer support, ease of use, consolidates reviews and flags out of date info

**What do you dislike about SweetIQ?**

The spreadsheet it compiles does not always include the full review - there is a max length which omits critical data/comments

**What problems is SweetIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SweetIQ makes it easy to manage your listings and keep them up to date.
