Textedly Reviews & Product Details

I like the additional features of Textedly such as automated responses that can be scheduled during certain times, along with drip campaigns that allow for automated journeys. I also look forward to trying conversation triggers to automatically respond to top customer FAQs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a bit of a process to get an account set up, mainly because it takes a few days to coordinate the custom phone number. This is mainly due to the reality of waiting on a third party to approve the number. A status notification on the dashboard could help alleviate any doubts about account setup.

Everything is put together well to make it easier to text your employees. It's all step-by-step. And I like that there is no guessing. Then we can check to see if folks GOT the text. The follow-through is crucial to me. It lets me know that the message is received and we can at least know they were reminded even if they fail to show up for their training. Our employees depend on getting their texts for company information and training events. I really didn't think they would! So it's a big win for us all the way around.

When employees leave our company, we cannot delete them from the database. If they come back, we can't re-activate them. They have to join on their own and that is just not a priority for them until they miss something important. I'd like to be able to delete their information when they quit, then re-enter it when they return to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's incredibly easy to use and implement! I love the reporting capabilities, the messaging, the AI assistance with writing a message. What isn't there to love about the platform. It's a massive upgrade from our previous service! The customer support is outstanding and incredibly responsive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is only 1 "downfall" we have come across and that's the ease of our customers knowing how to opt back in to messages. When someone opts out while it does inform them of the "1st step" in opting back in (sending a message of unstop or start), it does not instruct them on the 2nd part of the process (sending a 2nd text of the company keyword). We need to reach out to customer outside of textedly to instruct them of this. I wish we could customize the opt out reply so that it could include that additional step.

I really appreciate the ease of use that Textedly provides. It allows me to send flyers and pictures effectively, which is incredibly helpful. I also like that we can create different groups, like 'all staff' and 'field staff', and choose individual recipients for our communication. It's a fast, low-effort way to reach out to our staff quickly, especially since not everyone has email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike, although I would like to be able to send short videos in the texts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Textedly is easy to use because I can access it from my computer, phone, and iPad, which cuts my workload down considerably. It saves me a bunch of time since it allows me to send a text to my entire list of 2,000 customers with just one message. I also appreciate that it's less expensive and works well with my seasonal business, allowing me to adjust the service level according to the season. Once everything was set up initially, it made managing communications so much faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was an actual app that I could open up on my phone or my tablet. As it is now, I do have to go access the website to answer any text coming from my customers and also to send out a text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like using Textedly for customer marketing and staying in touch with my customers. It allows me to send texts to many customers while making it feel like it's coming directly from me, which is more effective than email for marketing and maintaining connections. It has helped grow my business. I appreciate the seamless and easy-to-use interface of Textedly. I also value the customer service; they responded promptly to my request for tax information and provided all the needed details right away. Their support is active and professional, and they make working with the platform straightforward. The initial setup was very easy, especially since my account was rolled over from another service. Textedly's team guided me through the ins and outs of the platform, making it a smooth transition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, there are target groups of people that I add that overlap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to sign on in one place and handle everything by computer. The easy computer access and fairly simple interface allow us to quickly create and send group messages. I also appreciate the ease of using Excel lists to set up our texting group, which is great because our patient list is on Excel. We didn't see any advantages from other texting services that would make us switch from Textedly. The initial setup was easy too, with help from a representative who walked us through.

The ability to have multiple users is sometimes an issue. Although there are 'teammates', it is not the same as having another user when the main person is out for one reason or another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Textedly's very easy-to-understand interface once I got used to it. This simplicity helps my nonprofit organization efficiently manage communication with around 1,200 members of our faith-based community. It allows us to contact our council members quickly, facilitating sign-ups through platforms like Sign Up Genius, and effectively distributing posters, event details, and emergency information. Additionally, the setup process was quite straightforward, as we were able to transfer a list of names and numbers from our database, although some hurdles were present due to home phone numbers not working for texting. The customer service was commendable, providing helpful assistance throughout the setup process. Overall, we've been using Textedly for three to four years and have been very happy with it, giving it a high satisfaction rating of about nine, indicating I would likely recommend it to others.

Also, having an app to use on the phone or desktop would be very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the convenience of being able to text our volunteers as opposed to having to call or e-mail. I get a much more immediate response when texting. My volunteers also love the convenience of being able to text as well. Customer support is very easy with the chat option as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It seems to be very easy for my volunteers to accidently subscribe and we have to walk them through resubscribing. I also experience glitches and end up sending the same message multiple times. I will also kick me out sometimes and I have to log back in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tech-support is top notch, and they are always quick to respond. Also, I love that you can design text messages that include images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My organization holds multiple events throughout the year, and I would like to be able to update phone numbers in bulk batches with new tags, so I can send messages to the appropriate groups. However, Textedly does not let you do that and unless you are going to go one by one on each account, you must upload the individual again with a new tag. So, I have some numbers in there 4 or 5 times because they are a part of 4 or 5 groups.

A bulk update feature like Mailchimp has would be very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
