“I received less than 10 reviews through Birdeye in the 5 months I was under contract, their system did not communicate with my booking system correctly which meant we had multiple missed opportunities, I then had clients who received review requests multiple times - even if they had already left a review.“

### "A Robust Tool Set for Reputation and Online Management"

May 5, 2026

5.0

Birdeye has helped our company grow customer reviews substantially, integration with our management software has aided in making sure no one is missed. Their listings management and Ai search management tools are industry best and provide valauable insight along with action items to improve.

Pros

Birdeye has a robust platform covering everything from customer sentiment to managing Ai search results. They have continued to grow and improve the platform with new innovative tools

Cons

I have no complaints about the service, it has been easy to set up and manage, providing excellent ROI

### "Long Term Customer + Fan!"

August 29, 2025

5.0

We moved to Birdeye from a similar platform. They were able to import all information from our prior platform to theirs, which was a huge plus. Onboarding team was on top of things. Our account rep has always been friendly, helpful and available. We have dug deeper into the features over time, as there are many and that can be overwhelming when tackling them all at once. Overall, it has been a very positive experience.

Pros

I like the fact that they are continually trying to innovate. The core product does exactly what we need to help us capture more online reviews, communicate virtual and capture actionable insights. As we've been a customer longer, we see them leaning deeper into AI components that can produce more robust data and insights. The rep that handles our account is also very responsive and helpful when we do have issues. We can track how many leads go from Birdeye to converted sales and it shows the true value for the money we get with our investment every monthly.

Cons

When signing on with Birdeye, setup was well handled. However, we tried to work on some custom features that took much longer than expected. It did eventually come to fruition but much later than anticipated. Rely on the core product as your gage for your decision and you will save some of the hassle we experienced.

We had run into some performance issues that we did not feel were addressed in a timely manner. Our initial account rep was great, but all the others we were passed around by afterwards did not match up to our initial experience.

### "Not what it seems "

June 11, 2025

1.0

In my opinion, there's several other services out there far more beneficial the experience I had it was very overpriced for what I was paying for. I'm sure it'll do somebody some good but my experience as a small business. No, I would not do it again and I would not recommend it to a friend or colleage.

Pros

The social media platforms, I really wanted this to work out. I gave it a shot. I gave them more than a year just not working out. I'm not satisfied at all.

Cons

The lack of customer service it seemed like you couldn't get a word and all they did was talk never really nothing listen I had several conversations about changing some plans. It seems like they were so money driven and impossible to cancel.

### "Boost Reviews & Communication with Birdeye"

September 1, 2025

5.0

Many of my clients have been using Birdeye for several years and have grown to love the easy communication with customers via the platform. We appreciate the auto-review request setup which allows us to resolve potential issues when customers have complaints offline. We have received excellent support from our Customer Success Managers and appreciate the transparent reporting. Overall, we have seen our reviews skyrocket and rating improve. Much credit goes to correcting problems before they turn into one star reviews.

Pros

The pros of using Birdeye include automated review and survey requests. We appreciate the way the request is formatted with "Green" for a review for positive experiences sent to Google or Facebook and the "Red" for less than satisfied customers that comes in as direct feedback. I also appreciate the auto-responses to reviews. A the store level, the sales team appreciate being able to text and send quotes via the platform. We also love that all messages, emails, webchats, etc. come into one inbox.

Cons

Integration issues with our CRM has been an on-going trial, but the blame falls on our CRM rather than Birdeye. Mass texting campaigns are a separate cost and are kind of expensive.

### "Strong Partner Opportunity with Birdeye for Agencies"

May 21, 2025

5.0

Overall, our agency is pleased and we have increased sales and interest in our offering because of their product. We had a much simpler software before and now we have new features like listings, insights, more AI features, referrals, Webchat etc

Pros

The breadth of features and are account management and personal care as a business partner would be the top two features. We finally have a world class product that is easier to sell and compete with other software providers.

Cons

They have a huge sales team so we often have to compete with them head to head for the biggest and best leads. This competition during our partnership has been a point of contention and it makes things awkward and confusing.

### "Great service for getting quality reviews!"

May 20, 2025

5.0

Overall I have had a great experience with Birdeye. My clients find a ton of success from integration and bulk importing client lists. We have been able to obtain quality reviews at a much higher rate than before. It's also nice to be able to handle everything in one place including making qr codes, responding to reviews, track reviews, etc.

Pros

The ease of asking for reviews for my clients, the AI feature for responding to reviews, the QR code generator for printing and using physical copies for my clients

Cons

Occasionally can't integrate for some clients, but this doesn't happen very often. Other than that I don't have any complaints. Support is very helpful if any issues arise.

### "Agency growth with Birdeye"

May 27, 2025

5.0

My experience with Birdeye has been great over the years and I have grown my business significantly because of the partnership with Birdeye that I have had.

Pros

I have always liked the Integrations, and ease of use of the platform. My clients all have different EMR's and the Birdeye team has always gone out of their way to make sure that the integrations and automations were running smoothly.

Cons

Support can be clunky or move slowly sometimes. I know it can be very complicated with a lot of tickets coming in but the communication and time to correct issues is a little tough sometimes.

May 20, 2025

5.0

Birdeye is filled with features that are beneficial for any business and essential for ours! We get all of our website and social communications in one inbox!

Pros

Ease of use! This product makes consolidating your communication a breeze. It takes all of your inner office communications to the next level as well!

Cons

The mass texting feature and surveys. They are clunky and a bit difficult to navigate, but Birdeye’s willingness to adapt makes this a small problem.

### "Good for managing online reputation"

April 11, 2026

5.0

Pros

The integrated review management and social media posting is pretty solid. We've seen a noticeable uptick in engagement since we started using it consistently for responding to customers and sharing updates.

Cons

Honestly, the mobile app could be a bit more intuitive. Sometimes navigating between different sections feels a bit clunky, and I find myself wishing it was faster to access certain features when I'm out of the office.

April 1, 2026

5.0

Pros

It’s honestly super to the point and easy to use! We stopped using BirdEye for a second and went back within months. We truly could see the difference without the platform.

Cons

It’s hard to say. The reason we left was because of the price and a new marketing company we switched to. But it wasn’t worth leaving BirdEye.

### "Highly Recommend!"

June 3, 2024

5.0

I have loved using Birdeye. They take the time to understand our business needs and understand our brand positioning. They offer applicable information, high quality tools, and an ever-changing range of product offerings. We have used them for 3 years now and don't have plans of stopping. We have done our due diligence in comparing this product to other similar tools, and Birdeye proves it belongs on top.

Pros

As an agency, this is a great additional revenue driver for not only the agency, but for our clients as well. Generating and fostering positive reviews and having the ability to manage negative ones is a great benefit to clients of all sectors. The approach Birdye takes is high quality and very fair for businesses and consumers alike. It even has applications for overall PR strategy for clients as well. There are a handful of competitiors to Birdeye that look like they generally "do the same thing", but if you want the job done right and done well, Birdeye is the unequivocal choice.

Cons

The only con from the agency perspective is that most businesses have a range of CRM's that their staff and leadership teams work in. Adoption to the tool for clients takes time and training. The Birdeye support team and tools are very helpful when getting over this roadblock.

Love how you can set it and forget it and it will do its job month after month, year after year, reliably.

Pros

June 21, 2023

4.0

Overall experience with Birdeye is great. They are very helpful and informative. They help as soon as we ask for it and go above and beyond when it comes to showing us what we can do and use.

Pros

I love the customizable social feature. We have multiple clinics that all have different logos and colors. This helps make it very easy to post to all clinics at once. We also love the Reporting software. Its very easy to use and gives us all the basics that we need. Or if we would like to go in depth we can.

Cons

Survey integration has been our least favored item. It seems like we will need to change the way the front desk checks customers in, in order to use this correctly and this could get very messy. I loved how easy it is to use and customize but when it comes down to the front desk remembering to change the way they work on a day to day it will be difficult to incorporate and implement.

### "Good product, but flawed"

August 24, 2022

4.0

The support team really wants to do a good job and can make up for the product's shortcomings. Issues pop up, naturally, as we come across unique instances, etc., and our Account Manager is great about working with us on finding resolutions.

Pros

Birdeye's ability to integrate with a wide variety of patient management systems (PMS) for review generation is exceptional and sets this product apart from anything else we can find. Our clients use a wide variety of PMSs, and Birdeye integrates with nearly all of them. If they don't they'll work on finding a solution to bring automation to the system.

Cons

We have a large number of clients that use this system and during the sales process we were told that all we needed to do was provide a CSV of their names & locations, and the onboarding team would handle it. Unfortunately, that was not the case. We had to manually configure a profile for each of our clients. Also, the continually cross market to existing clients. For example, we have a client that has multiple locations. Most of the locations are managed through our Birdeye account, while one location has it's own Birdeye account not tied to us. The manager of that one location continues to receive messages from Birdeye saying that they really should bring the other locations onboard and also says that nothing is being done with the locations we manage. Every time they send a message we request that Birdeye flag that the other locations are in our account - for some reason they won't. It's been a major issue for some of our larger clients with multiple locations spread across different Birdeye accounts.

November 19, 2021

3.0

I lost money by using BirdEye and they still wont fix the issues!

Pros

The ability to get more reviews on google

Cons

Lots of issues with integrations and billing but most of all I purchased Yext through them and was given Synup! I was lied to and when I called them out on it they said oh we will give you Yext now, I asked for a refund and they said they were working on it, I found this out at the end of July or beginning of August then I told them I would not be renewing my 25 locations, they then said they would send me a new contract, tried to get me to sign a 3-year contract, I refused and said I wanted to drop down to 10 locations, they then sent me a new contract for one year, I didn't sign, then they auto renewed, I'm reporting them to the state attorney! Also everyone I dealt with was fired or left!

### "Birdeye has helped No Time for Social grow our business and remain ahead of our competition"

April 6, 2023

5.0

We've been with them for several years, and the value you receive is top-notch for this type of service. We have reviewed at least 10 of them over the years and have stayed with Birdeye since they provide great support.

Pros

One of the best things about Birdeye is the customer service. Our agency rep \[sensitive content hidden\] has been spot on answering our questions and getting resolutions to any issues we have. He has also been very supportive, providing assets to help us grow.Our clients would most likely not have a review system in place without us bringing a solution to the table, and Birdeye has allowed us to provide this comprehensive solution to help build our client pages on social platforms.

Cons

There are some small glitches with the connections, but that seems like an issue with a lot of platforms that are using API connections. You have to monitor your connections to make sure everything is still running smoothly. The monthly recap is a great way to identify missing connections but you still need to make sure things are connected properly.
