OneSignal empowers over 2M users at mobile-first companies of all sizes to drive retention and revenue growth through a modern omnichannel customer engagement platform.
I like the ease-of-use of the platform, and they put on an awesome conference. Good product for smaller marketing teams.
The customer support is hard to find once you are in the site, which is insane.
Friendly, efficient, effective and accessible customer service when i have a question. Ease of use/ user friendly.
We were never notified of the issue, only later receiving a sizeable bill in which we were charged per contact that exceeded our contract.
Love how you can send Mass emails. Emma has a great customizable features so you can design what you want your email to look like.
Miss the live chat customer service,, but, in that "keeping it human" and getting to folks who actually know what they're doing.
The templates are creative so you can create memorable mail and there is a great resource library to improve your overall approach and skills to have effective email campaigns.
It is drag and drop, to a point. You can use links, but you can't put documents in your emails.
It helps to engage more users and they are helping us growing our audience. They provide a very easy way to communicate to our users and provide them updates and up sell products.
I've have some concern about how the data used by my instance are used by the company. The template miss the possibility to inject value, this can be a big problem to use it.
The best thing that i love about one signal is their dashboard and tools, They provide flexibility for implementation of apis and reach users while they are navigating into our apps.
In a rare situation of migrating to a new domain name or App, you cannot carry the subscribers along which makes them useless.
Even if you're not, there are probably videos you can find that'll guide you through doing whatever you might want to achieve with it. Thank this to the awesome community build around it.
I can not get ANY subscribed users to actually receive any notifications. I have tried ALL troubleshooting options to no avail.
Push notifications that work really great on web and mobile devices, clean interface with a bunch of features that easy the way we develop and they have a great support.
OneSignal 503s quite often sometimes push notifications fail, although these issues have happened less and less over time.
Jordan B.: Hi, I'm Jordan, vice president. And I give Emma a three out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. We were using Constant Contact before for our email client management and for marketing efforts, and then we switched over to Emma at that point. We chose Emma because it was referred to us by a marketing company that we were tied in with. And they had had some success with utilizing Emma in the past. And there were a couple of features that they recommended us utilize that Constant Contact just didn't have. Getting started with Emma was okay. It was a simple-ish process. You really need to have a little bit more advanced knowledge of how to work in the email marketing space, as well as maybe some coding background for just implementing it off the ground. I think the best piece of advice I'd give somebody just getting started with Emma is just make sure you know if you're an advanced user or not. If you're just trying to do some simple marketing messages, you may want to go with one of the other programs, like Constant Contact, out of the marketplace. Otherwise, if you need to be able to do a little bit more with your marketing messaging and get in the nuts and bolts of it, then you can retool and do everything you need to do with Emma.
Tomas P.: Hey, I'm Tomas. I'm a software developer, and I work for a software developing company that has 20 people. I rate OneSignal four out of five. Before using OneSignal, I was using Firebase push notification system, but it didn't work that well because we couldn't actually track any of the journeys or anything that we were trying to fix in terms of the opening of the push notifications because we didn't have a dedicated panel for us to actually see how those messages were performing. So that's why we find out in OneSignal solution we needed to actually implement for push notification [inaudible 00:00:40]. We started using OneSignal first because it's free at the beginning, and you can right away start using it. And because of the very well documented SDK implementation they have for every single platform that we actually used. So we use hybrid mobile applications, and they actually had an SDK for every single one of the implementations we had. And as well, they actually included email and web push notifications as well. So it was supernatural for us to actually use it in our project right away, right out of the box. And it didn't cost us anything until we actually needed to have a expanded amount of push notifications being sent and reports of the performance we were getting from the push notifications. So right at the bat it was free, so there was no harm for actually trying it out, and that's why we started using it. When we started using OneSignal, it was actually pretty easy to start it with because I actually created a proof of concept so I could show it to my teammates and people in the project management branch because we were trying to use a new implementation and a new technology for the push notifications so we were getting different options. So OneSignal was really easy to actually get to work first for web, because we were using a web platform, and then seeing what it will take to actually make it work in a mobile application. It was like a no-brainer for us to actually start using it. If anyone is thinking about using OneSignal, I'll probably just point out the fact that they don't have WhatsApp integration. So for example, if you're aiming for a Latin American kind of market where people usually use WhatsApp as the way of the communication or the communication channel, you're probably going to want to have another option like Twilio or anything like that. But anything else you can actually use OneSignal for, you can actually use it for email journeys or campaigns to actually see open rates and everything in a single dashboard. So using OneSignal give you the opportunity to use, no matter what language you're using, no matter what platform you're actually developing for, there is going to be an option for you to actually be able to use it in a very easy way. They have a really good documentation, so if you are thinking on using OneSignal, that's going to be like a breeze for you to actually get started with it.
