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 Alternatives considered [Trustpilot](https://www.capterra.com/p/169618/Trustpilot/) Reason for choosing Birdeye Birdeye was more flexible, offered better services to add to our marketing tools at a better price point Switched from [GatherUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/239159/GatherUp/) Needed a more robust system with integrated service Review Source EP Eric P. VP of Sales Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Switched from [Podium](https://www.capterra.com/p/164285/Podium/) 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. Review Source GO Gabriella O.

Cons What i like least about Birdeye is that it can be a bit complex to learn at first and the pricing is quite high for smaller teams. Review Source jR jason R. manger Automotive Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Switched from [Broadly](https://www.capterra.com/p/161326/Broadly-Reviews/) I like the idea it sounded good, but was a mistake Review Source Response from Birdeye November 13, 2025 Hi Jason, We apologize for the experience you have faced. We want to make this right. Please email me at ciera.saldona@birdeye.com so we can identify your account and resolve your concerns as soon as possible. KL Kate L. Sales Machinery Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A Powerful Tool for Managing Online Reputation" August 7, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Birdeye has been positive. It provides a convenient way to manage customer reviews, gather feedback, and monitor online reputation from one centralized platform. The automation features and reporting tools help businesses stay engaged with customers and improve their digital presence. While the pricing and learning curve can be challenging, Birdeye is a valuable solution for businesses looking to strengthen customer relationships and manage their reputation effectively. Pros Birdeye makes it easy to manage customer reviews, monitor online reputation, and collect feedback across multiple platforms. I liked the user-friendly dashboard, automated review requests, and the ability to track customer sentiment and engagement in one place. It helps businesses improve their online presence and maintain stronger relationships with customers. Cons The pricing can be high, especially for smaller businesses, and some advanced features may require additional setup or training. The platform can also feel overwhelming at first due to the number of tools available, and customer support response times may vary. Review Source JC Julie C. Owner Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Switched from [Podium](https://www.capterra.com/p/164285/Podium/) More features for less dollars and better customer service by far.

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. Alternatives considered [GatherUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/239159/GatherUp/) Reason for choosing Birdeye Better pricing and relationship than other companies out there. They have the top product reputation in this industry Switched from [Grade.us](https://www.capterra.com/p/137378/Grade-us/) We needed better features and better support. Our last software doesn't improve their software nearly enough Review Source SV Sammi V. Senior Client Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Switched from [Review Wave](https://www.capterra.com/p/157424/Review-Wave/) I am not sure, I wasn't at the company for that. Review Source BD Bobby D. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Switched from [Grade.us](https://www.capterra.com/p/137378/Grade-us/) Integrations and growth opportunities that Birdeye offered.

The dashboard is helpful for keeping track of overall customer activity. Cons The platform has a lot of features, which can feel overwhelming at first. The setup process could also be a little more straightforward. Review Source DK David K. Brand Manager Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best Review Platform Ever!" 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. Switched from [ReviewBuzz](https://www.capterra.com/p/139132/ReviewBuzz/) We needed something customized to our needs and modern in function. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Manager Veterinary Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Birdeye within the Vet World " 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. Alternatives considered [Hootsuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/121701/HootSuite/) Reason for choosing Birdeye Due to price and trying to have everything in one location. Review Source Response from Birdeye August 2, 2023 Amazing! Thank you for sharing how much you love utilizing Birdeye Social! TS Thad S. Director of Operations Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Grade.us](https://www.capterra.com/p/137378/Grade-us/) Reason for choosing Birdeye Birdeye's integration with our client's patient management systems was a game changer. Switched from [Yext](https://www.capterra.com/p/140176/Yext/)[Grade.us](https://www.capterra.com/p/137378/Grade-us/) Birdeye's integration with our client's patient management systems was a game changer. Review Source Response from Birdeye September 1, 2022 Amazing, thorough feedback, Thad! We are looking into your feedback and our team will be on top of enhancing the features for our customer's continued success. Thank you for the awareness and for being a wonderful Birdeye partner!

" 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! Alternatives considered [Swell](https://www.capterra.com/p/172802/Swell/)[Podium](https://www.capterra.com/p/164285/Podium/) Reason for choosing Birdeye They bait and switched said I could bring back all the old clients that I originally brought to BirdEye back to my agency and then once the contract was signed said I couldn't! Review Source CM Chris M. Director of Customer Success & Analytics Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for Dentists" August 24, 2022 4.0 Biggest benefit has been a significant increase in reviews for our practices that have integrated with the software. They start to see immediate results that continue in the long-term as well. Pros Best thing for us about Birdeye is the integrations with multiple dental patient management systems. Most offices don't want to take the time to learn a new platform so integration is key and Birdeye has the most options. Cons Support is all about closing tickets and not really about fixing problems.

I've watched Birdeye grow over the years and I'm confident they will continue to grow and use AI tools to their advantage Pros I really like the attention to detail and the strong customer service. All requests are handled within 24 hours. I have several clients using Birdeye and they have been for many years now. It's really the best review management software out there. Cons I would love to be able to have my clients who have multiple locations be able to manage all of their Google Maps business locations within one Birdeye account rather than having to switch the Google Business accounts every few months to a different location.

August 29, 2025 5.0 From the beginning, our agents listened to our needs and the solutions we were looking for. I feel like a valued customer and that this product is a worthy investment. Pros Birdeye's platofrm is user friendly and their customer service is second to none! Implementation was easy, efficient, and timely. Cons So far, nothing to note!

The customer support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and very helpful! Pros I like how Birdeye includes features that make the reputation management campaign process seamless for creation and integration. Cons There's nothing I like least about Birdeye but there is always room to improve such as adding new customizable reports and integrating more AI features! Review Source SB Sammy B.

May 30, 2025 5.0 Pros The ease of use and the ability to manage multiple clients in one easy spot has made my job a lot easier! Cons Sometimes the integration process is a bit taxing and I wish there were more platforms that can be integrated. Review Source CB Christoph B. COO Hospitality Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Easy to adopt solution to gain visibility and manage reviews" October 10, 2025 5.0 Easy to use and adopt - team was quickly onboarded and could take action both in setting up the reportings and gaining visibility but also to start responding and managing Pros Comprehensive tool to manage publicly available reviews, evaluations, display and findability of brand and business / stores / locations; nicely combines analytics with capabilities to manage and respond to create a positive public image. Cons Some of the functionality is heavily focused on social media in the original sense but not fully integrated into displaying and managing reviews or descriptions on booking platforms.

March 7, 2025 4.0 Overall a positive experience, and well organized company. Pros The ease of being able to send messages to our customers, and stay in contact with them. Especially with reviews.

CMO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent consumer facing experience. " June 14, 2023 5.0 Overall, we are very happy with what Birdeye offers. Pros We use Birdeye to collect and manage Google and Facebook reviews of our product. We are impressed with the consumer-facing side of Birdeye. The automation of texting and emailing customers to request reviews is great. What we like the best is the way that the emails and text messages look when a customer receives them. The buttons are large and clear. The interface is easy to for the customer to use, and the process of writing a Facebook or Google review is really seamless and fast. Birdeye has helped us gather lots of reviews for Strong Cell. The best part of Birdeye is how the customer-facing interface handles negative feedback. When Birdeye presents the review request to the consumer, the button for Facebook and the button for Google are in blue, then at the bottom of the screen is a red button that requests negative feedback. When a customer clicks the red button, they are able to send our customer service team a message directly, giving us the opportunity to address their complaint, make it right, and provide a quality customer service experience. Meanwhile, arbitrating the potential negative review. This is fantastic. Cons The Shopify integration is not native. It is facilitated through Zapier. I prefer a native integration. Additionally, we feel limited in the widget options for displaying reviews on our site. Reason for choosing Birdeye The customer-facing experience and the review request automation is very robust. Review Source Response from Birdeye August 2, 2023 Thanks for taking the time to leave us thorough feedback. We appreciate you choosing Birdeye! Bill C.

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.
