### "Perfect for Brick and Mortar Businesses as well as E-Commerce"

November 22, 2019

5.0

My experience with the software and their staff has been great. I also enjoyed the Growth Hacking academy that they provided when I became a customer.

Pros

What I like the most about this software is that it allows me to create referral campaings that are effective for both online and offline businesses.

Cons

Until recently the one thing that I didn't like was the branding at the bottom of the widgets but they toned it down an also offer eliminating it all together on one of their tier plans.

### "The best and only tool you need to create viral campaigns"

December 21, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's very easy to create a viral social campaign and integrate it with your website. There are templates imitating already successful campaigns that you can use to start.

Cons

While setting up the campaign is fairly easy, it requires some efforts. You also need to be ready with the rewards beforehand.

### "It's a good tool"

April 23, 2024

5.0

The customer support is the best. The only reason I stopped using it is for the price. I only use the referral functionality, so it can be cheaper.

Pros

It makes easy to create a referral program.

Cons

I think it's expensive for the things I use it. It would be nice to have a cheaper plan just to use 1 or 2 features.

### "Quality Viral Referral Marketing Platform"

June 15, 2021

5.0

Pros

I joined Viral Loops a few months ago and I can honestly say I'm extremely impressed on how easy it is to manage referral marketing campaigns. I've researched a few companies and some were cheaper and did the job but Viral Loops differentiated in their hyper specific templates. I'd recommend testing it out for yourself though!

Cons

Honestly, don't have much to recommend at the moment. The system is designed well and meets and overexeeds expectations.

### "Excellent alternative to Viral Marketing campaigns"

December 1, 2020

4.0

Helps us to carry out word of mouth marketing campaigns at an excellent cost / benefit!

Pros

\- Quick campaign creation (on average 5 minutes); - Several templates inspired by successful campaigns available; - Anti fraud; - Possibility to include domain and personalized email.

Cons

Still not much to complain about Viral Lops, but I believe that a mobile application for creating and managing campaigns could be very useful in times of mobility.

### "Viral Marketing Tool"

March 11, 2019

4.0

Pros

A great marketing tool for creating viral campaigns inspired by multi-million companies (Dropbox, Airbnb) Visitors just love to exchange their email address for a chance to win a prize... Easy to create and launch an online competition or a sweepstake.

Cons

These types of campaigns tend to attract the free-seeking users, thus the quality of the generated leads varies.

### "Great for product launches"

December 13, 2019

5.0

We used VL to launch a new product in a new market, it was very convenient and we liked using it. Will use it again.

Pros

\- Easy to collect waitlist for a newly launched product - Fast set up - Convenient integrations - Good documentation & support

Cons

\- Customization ability is quite limited - Some types of follow-ups could be better, I guess the templates are designed only for the main use cases

I am using Viral Loops in my sales funnel and can generate more leads without spending anything on advertising.

Pros

Very powerful for referrals. I am able to increase my leads by 10% without spending anything on adversing.

Cons

It was not very easy to implement because of the multiple widgets and codes. The documentation was not very complete and maybe more technical than I am.

### "Great software and amazing service"

November 28, 2016

5.0

We originally wanted to use this software but needed an extra field in the template we were using. The team went above and beyond to tailor the software to cater for our needs event though their custom builds were yet to be released, meaning we didn't have to use the alternative which frankly wasn't as good (phew). They've been so helpful throughout the implementation of the campaign - if we needed extra tracking or anything, they would help integrate it and troubleshoot anything we needed. Would definitely recommend Viral-Loops to boost your campaign!

Pros

Easy to use Great service Innovatice

Cons

Not really, they are constantly evolving the service and add what you need

### "Great concept - can see it being successful !"

June 30, 2018

4.0

It helps create referrals campaigns quickly and easily. Not perfect, would love a bit more development.

Pros

Great app - particularly for new companies or people launching new projects. Nice process for creating campaigns.

Cons

Some effort needs to be done for referrals . Leads should have access to custom dashboard to see their efforts.

I could build up a huge audience with an awesome user experience.

Pros

You have built-in referral templates that can be used in minutes. Viral Loops also provides awesome examples and case studies.

### "Best In Its Class..."

January 13, 2020

4.0

We wanted a quick and easy way to use the power of viral marketing and word-of-mouth marketing. Viral Loops gives us that ability. Since this happens on the internet, which is highly viral, it's that much better.

Pros

Overall, it does what it is supposed to. The developers are consistently making edits and updates to improve the product.

Cons

It could use a few more campaign options, but their team is adding them.
