It was fun and exciting to be able to send bulk text messages to customers all at one time. I got really good responses

Pros

The convenience of not having to send manual texts

Cons

The options that were Available. It didn’t allow me to make certain changes and filter which ones I didn’t want to send out

### "One of the best sms texting and marketing services"

February 13, 2019

5.0

We’ve had an excellent experience with textedly and have come to trust them over the years we’ve used them for our important group communications.

Pros

I love how reliable and easy to use Textedly’s web dashboard is. Things are well though out and easy to find. The feature set has everything we need including the ability to bulk import, schedule messages, and even attach photos. It doesn’t require any of our end users to instal anything like WhatsApp and requires no special training for those receiving messages. We use it for group messaging large numbers of volunteers. The pricing is super fair and the customer service is excellent. I’ve compared textedly with a lot of other services in its range and by far I prefer and trust it for needs.

Cons

In order to bulk import textedly has to approve your account and it’s best you sign up with a domain email if you want to import via csv a list of contacts. However they do this in order to reduce the likelihood of getting their short code flagged as spam and this helps to ensure the reliability of sms messages getting delivered reliably. So in truth this is a positive thing. Just requires some manual verification to get approved for it. But customer service is fast to get it done. I’d suggest that maybe they could have someone available via email on the weekends who could enable this feature in case a user signs up late in the week and needs to enable the feature asap. But not a huge deal.

### "Optimize the procedures involved in developing and launching SMS marketing campaigns."

April 20, 2023

5.0

Textedly has allowed us to scale up our SMS marketing efforts with ease, providing us with user-friendly tools and insightful reports to optimize our strategies.

Pros

Textedly provides a comprehensive set of features and tools to develop effective SMS marketing campaigns. It has no restrictions on the number of customers on the target list, making it easy to reach both small and large customer groups. Customizable templates and drag-and-drop capabilities simplify campaign creation, while segmentation options allow for categorizing customers by interests. Textedly also enables customers to easily unsubscribe from SMS. Its integration with other systems and automation features link to customer records and personalize greetings on special occasions. The reporting features provide valuable insights into open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, demographic data, and engagement trends, making it easy to assess campaign success and identify areas for improvement in future campaigns.

Cons

Textedly has no negative aspects to its use, as it is challenging to identify any features that are unhelpful or spammy. Although there was some confusion initially with the updated hashing features, it turned out to be more beneficial than anticipated after comprehension.

### "Difficult to work with, and unfriendly support representatives"

January 26, 2022

2.0

I had a poor experience with their customer support, which was unable to assist me with a basic issue and flaw with their platform. Rather than accommodate our needs, they were short and condescending with me over chat support. Due to their unwillingness and inability to fulfill our needs, they came up with poor excuses for why they couldn't help us.

Pros

Somewhat affordable. Two way messaging is nice.

Cons

They try to scare you into keeping a subscription with them in case your texts are audited and you need records to avoid massive fines! Credits do not roll over. Month to month or annual only. No credit plans. Software is clunky and difficult to use. Help documentation is not robust. Can lead to confusion. Chat support was rude, and condescending. Contact list upload patching is not documented well. Can't re-enable internally un-subscribed contacts. If you cancel your plan, they will close your account immediately (you don't keep access through paid period)

### "The most important feature doesn't work"

April 24, 2017

3.0

Pros

When I purchase something (demo or otherwise) for possible consideration, I simply want it to work, even in demo mode. Went through the process of signing on and spent most of the evening trying to figure out how to upload a simple contact(s) list. No button to do that anywhere. I would like to purchase a sms marketing plan that allows me to upload an already established list and simply will not start from scratch. EXtexting, (not happy with them, but at least they allow you to upload a list. Bottom line, when I want something online I want it to work with ease and no headaches. My search continues fro a company that I can do business with

### "Unusable, Even After Paying $456"

January 15, 2024

1.0

After researching many bulk texting services, Textedly appeared to be the best fit and value for our company to send a text "blasts" to all 60 employees at one time. I signed up, chose the "bronze" plan, paid for an annual subscription, verified my identity by both text and email, and was excited to get started. I went to add contacts, but found bulk upload was not authorized without approval from Textedly. I sent the request via the AI chat bot as directed and got no reply. I then decided to manually enter my 60 employees' info. After 10 contacts I was halted by a "maximum 10 manual entries allowed" message. I had to search on-line to find a support phone number, and when I called I was basically told at some point they would get around to approving my access to bulk upload contacts. It's irritating because had I known the service was going to be useless until whenever they decide to approve my access, I would have chosen a competitor. I have time today to spend on this, but probably will not tomorrow or following days.

Pros

It's unusable at this point, so no way to know.

Cons

Even after paying for an annual subscription, it's impossible to use. There is an approval process that takes an unspecified length of time before you can bulk upload contacts and can only manually add ten contacts.

### "Textedly is reliable, easy, and a good value"

April 25, 2019

5.0

Except for one sign in glitch, earlier this year, their tech support has been fabulous. They have a personalized business approach to their customers. I don't feel like I'm interfacing with some outsourced tech support halfway around the world.

Pros

It allows me to send out 400 plus texts to our sports league in a matter of seconds. It's reliable. It's easy to add new participants, without a long barrier of entry for the new participants. It is a substantially lower cost than its competition.

Cons

Once entered as a contact, a participant can't change a phone number without you having to delete the entire contact and re-entering from scratch. I would like to see some edit capability in the phone number field, if all the other information stays constant.

### "All in one place..."

September 7, 2023

5.0

I'm trying to solve the problem of texting customers without seeming spammy. Sometimes people think it's spammy, sometimes they don't. If more people knew about the service I think I would get less declines/opt outs from customers.

Pros

The benefit of textedly is that everything you need to text customers is in one place, and that they also provide a cell phone number (essentially a virtual number) so that you're not texting from your own phone.

Cons

They have a free trial function but you can only text yourself. It's okay to not have a free trial, but it seems a little bat and switch-ish.

### "A great interface with a user centered functionality"

May 12, 2018

5.0

Recommended!! if you are looking for an effective an on-time solution for you message marketing campaigns.

Pros

We are always on the move so we need something which can be easily accessible and flexible. Textedly suits best for instant messaging. It gives us feasibility to send a proper format message so that our customer/clients gets the whole knowledge in a single message, thanks to Textedly. Along with mass messaging, we can schedule it as well for later days. Apart from all other functionality, Textedly has a great customer support, which adds more value to customer experience.

Cons

Satisfied with all the aspects, and so simple to operate, for the cons, there is nothing much but they can always bring something new, which solves the pain issues of email marketing, can have more options in "Filter". Other than that, Great Work Textedly Team!

### "Textedly is incredibly helpful in my industry."

February 10, 2023

5.0

One of Textedly's best features is its affordability, which is ideal for small businesses looking for an inexpensive marketing strategy. The customer support/client success manager! She's incredibly helpful and amiable. We love how practical a marketing tool it is that also has a good UI and is simple to use. We appreciate how straightforward this solution is and how simple it is to communicate with multiple clients with a single message. It's incredibly helpful!!

Pros

Its ability to mass text to multiple clients is one of my favorites cause most CRMs don't do that so it's really helpful to have a third-party platform that can do that.

Cons

None so far. But probably the feature that we would want to have is to ability to create a smartlist and be able to group the contacts accordingly. Although tags do that too, but smartlist can be great as well.

### "Buyer beware read the terms and conditions. "

October 18, 2021

1.0

Pros

Company lacks integrity and willingness to communicate.

Cons

Buyer beware in the instance that you or Textedly terminate the relationship. Textedly will deliberately block your business from accessing their client list. Also Textedly TERMS AND CONDITIONS SAY they will SELL YOUR CLIENT LIST.

### "Growth Pains"

March 28, 2019

2.0

Pros

Ease of use simple to keep subscribers apprised but technical foundation of the platform and accompanying customer support is suspect

Cons

Upon contacting customer support to discuss why messages were stuck in the quu and not being delivered , the company proesse there were no technical issues on their side. After requesting a constructive escalating I was told I that due to issue severity that by rule I would be contacted within the hour ( BTW asked for a method to contact a tech support manager directly and I was refused). It is now 1 hr and 40 min later and the support magt did not reach out because they were overwhelmed by other delivery escalations - meaning there actually was in fact a a platform issue that was being swept under the rug. As a long time customer support professional and a platform user I find this deplorable.

### "Missing Key Analytics"

February 15, 2023

4.0

Even though I didn't continue using this platform after my free trial, I still think it's a great option, especially for small businesses. The customer service is excellent. Their reps are friendly, fast, and effective communicators.

Pros

It's very easy to get started with Textedly. You can quickly figure out how to import contacts, draft/schedule/send texts, etc within a matter of minutes. I found the dashboards of competitors like SimpleTexting and EZTexting to be a bit visually overwhelming compared to Textedly.

Cons

The biggest con for me is that they do not offer link tracking within their platform. You can work around this by using UTM codes to track the links in Google Analytics, but that's kind of inconvenient when you consider that other platforms do track the number of clicks on your links. I asked a customer service rep about this and they told me that Textedly previously DID track links, but they no longer do. I wonder why they did away with that feature.

### "Textedly has an easy to use format, friendly tools, and incredible support GREAT for you too..."

July 31, 2018

5.0

Daily, weekly monthly updates. KEEP up the great job!

Pros

The fast and easy to use web interface makes short work of sending 100's of text messages. Managing the users is simple, quick, and intuitive. Each text can be unique or use the self created auto messages to send quick to the point instructions. We have used Textedly to announce our down systems, system maintenance, special HR programs events, and those time pertinent reminders. With no minimum to use and no max, you pay for what you need and what you use. Change plans when ever and how often you need. Simply put there is not a more reliable and more friendly tool on the market to send SMS messages, freeing you up to focus on the more important things like your product, people or customers. We have only had to use Support one time, the response time was super fast, the agent was friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable. The actual issue had nothing to do with Textedly, it was a CO issue, but I still got updates and information as the issue progressed and was resolved.

Cons

Nobody is perfect, and no company is perfect, but I honestly do not have anything to list as a con for Textedly.

### "Marketing por SMS"

February 28, 2023

5.0

Es una plataforma excelente para hacer campañas de marketing y para enviar mensajes de texto a usuarios.

Pros

El precio es bastante económico y hay la posibilidad de obtener descuentos si pagas la suscripción anual. Los mensajes de texto llegan muy rápidos, después de un tiempo usándolo no hemos encontrado problemas en el envio.

Cons

Funcionalmente no hemos encontrado ningún punto negativo en la plataforma. Lo que se echa en falta es poder usarlo desde España

### "Vanguard in Texting Functionality, Lots of Other Options Now"

October 26, 2019

3.0

We used it initially and really enjoyed it. However, now we find that there are other alternatives that are more valuable for e-commerce companies like ours.

Pros

You have the ability to import phone numbers and collect phone number leads relatively easily. Once you have a list of phone numbers, you have the ability to text message them.

Cons

You dont have the ability to text from a number that looks like an “actual” 10-digit phone number. Rather, you are assigned a number like “xx-xxx”. In doing so, the individuals who you text get the feeling that this is a corporate service.

### "Great for churches! The possibilities are endless!"

August 21, 2018

5.0

This is opening up new possibilities for our church. People are better able to access information and we can communicate more effectively with Textedly. There are many opportunities we haven't even explored yet utilizing this new way of communicating.

Pros

The ability to reach people in the fastest easiest way. EVERYBODY at least glances at a text message if not read it completely. You can't say that about voicemails, emails, physical mail, etc...

Cons

The software itself is awesome. Took a little while to figure out how to use it. There were not useful videos or articles to help me with what I wanted. I use Textedly for two purposes. 1. For ongoing communication. People subscribe to a keyword (an all church keyword, or youth ministry keyword) and I can periodically send messages to inform, advertise, or communicate information. 2. I use a keyword for single use, or special uses. (To register for an event online, they text the keyword to get a link to online registration. Or to interact with the Sunday sermon, text a keyword to get a link to an article referenced, or for a survey, or poll.) There were no articles that explained I needed to delete subscribers if I wanted them to receive the automated predetermined message again. If they aren't removed and they text the same keyword again, they get a message saying they are already subscribed rather than getting the message I made. Also, you CAN change an existing keyword to a different keyword (the help articles don't say this). But you have to delete everyone that has subscribed to that first keyword before you can change it.

### "Great for mass texting"

October 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

It is very easy to use. I thought it would be difficult to learn how to send mass texts, but the tools are simple and there isn't much of a learning curve.

Cons

I wish the texts would send faster. I'm not sure if this is standard, but it seems like the messages can take a while to get to our clients.

November 27, 2019

We are using this tool mainly for SMS marketing services. This tool have worked really well for us.

Pros

Pay only for what you send, incoming is always free. I see this is one of the really good feature as my customers can send how much messages to me. Seamless integration with Slack Customer support is really good.

Cons

It would be really nice if textedly had more 3rd party integrations. I am actually looking for Google Apps Integration.

It’s easy and convenient to create mass text campaigns through Textedly with only a few steps!

Pros

It’s easy upload and manage contacts. And there are only few steps to set up a text messaging campaign for hundred or thousands of contacts at once.

### "If you work in the US, do not hire virtual assistants outside"

May 3, 2019

3.0

I can not understand how a website for communicating with people, ban other countries IP. I receive like 5 phone calls and messages from people in india. If you call customer support of ANY big or small company you will be talking with somebody outside the US. How can they possibly think on forbid the access to this website from a country like Mexico! I am pretty sure we all have a foreign assistant for marketing. Not this way textedly, not this way.

Pros

Easy to use, works very good. Good prices

Cons

It is incredible that they banned Mexico IP and who know how many more. You cant have external users to help you because of this ban.
