### "Overall Experience with Zipwhip (WE MISS YOU)"

October 11, 2024

5.0

Our overall experience with Zipwhip was great. We were with Zipwhip for several years, and were very sad when we heard they were no longer going to be in business, we looked for a companies with similarities to zipwhips for months.

Pros

ZipWhip was very easy to use, setup was very easy as well. It was very easy to train new employee on how to use the software. Very cost effective. It was very difficult to find a similar software with everything Zipwhip offered at the same price or even close to the same price. We miss Zipwhip very much.

Cons

I would say what we least liked about Zipwhip it was they didn't particularly didn't have focus on insurance agencies.

4.0

Overall, Zipwhip was good while it lasted.

Pros

While it was still around Zipwhip was easy. It had excellent search functions and nice scrolling to keep on top of messages coming in.

Cons

It did not have in the default program signatures, or timed messages, or the ability to see who had last answered.

### "Past Zipwhip User"

October 11, 2023

3.0

Over all a good experience with Zipwhip. Would have continued to use if it wasn't for the new 10 DLC policy. Which was not implemented by the company.

Pros

When we first started using Zipwhip it was wonderful. Very user friendly and reliable.

Cons

The largest problem we had was when the 10 DLC was required. It was nearly impossible to get support to help with this issue.

### "Great software that went away for no reason."

June 6, 2023

5.0

Pretty good. Easy to use.

Pros

What separated Zipwhip from most of their competitors is that you did not need a new SMS number. Instead, you could make your main landline text enabled. The service worked well and was not expensive.

Cons

For some reason Twilio decided to buy Zipwhip and shut it down. Zipwhip is going away as a service at the end of the year. I have switched to one of their competitors but the interface is terrible.

Alternatives considered

[Text Request](https://www.capterra.com/p/167015/Text-Request/)

Reason for choosing Zipwhip

Because the interface was much better.

### "Best Price for a Fair Platform"

April 12, 2022

5.0

ZipWhip introduced our business to many features that elevated our standard for client communication at an amazing price point.

Pros

Prior to the acquisition, ZipWhip had by far the best price point for the features offered.

Cons

After being purchased, they divested their customer service to support the new platform offerings.

### "Easy option for SMS communication"

November 10, 2019

5.0

We use Zipwhip as our primary tool for SMS communication with our customers.

Pros

I'm a fan of Zipwhip. It's the cheapest SMS automation service out there, but they don't skimp on the functionality. We use it to automate messages to customers and to provide SMS "chat" service. It's simple, straight forward, and so user friendly that we've not had to train anyone on its use yet. Been using it for years at this point and have no desire to look elsewhere.

Cons

I do wish that messages could be sent to larger numbers of people. I get why this functionality is limited- spam and all- but I've got a large number of legitimate contacts to make and it would save a lot of time to not have to batch them.

### "Favorite Texting App"

July 3, 2023

5.0

Pros

Zipwhip is so user friendly. Allowed us to send group messages, which is big for our communication with our brides. Love the ability to see each text conversation separately (just like on a phone). Easy usability of use of app.

Cons

That they are closing. Everything else about Zipwhip was great for our company.

### "Zipwhip for healthcare"

April 4, 2024

4.0

My overall experience was good! I used Zipwhip for 2 years but our company used it for much longer.

Pros

The ease of use is great and bulk messaging was a lifesaver for winter storms etc. when all of our patients had to be contacted at once.

Cons

I know we stopped using Zipwhip since they went out of business but I am not sure what the decision for the switch was.

### "Communication at our Fingertips"

May 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how simple it is to send and receive text messages to the store using this software. It is so much faster to respond to customer queries by typing than by going through the motions and social cues of a telephone conversation. It is also really, really helpful to be able to access the full history of conversation with various contacts, so that no matter how much time has passed, we can easily see what was discussed in prior conversations. It also allows us to communicate quickly between colleagues and with the boss, as we can quickly fire off a note about needing change or arriving to work late without tying up the phone lines.

Cons

Most people's mobile phones no longer have difficulties dealing with long messages. Restricting the number of characters in a message is aggravating, as sometimes what we need to communicate can't be summed up in 250 characters, and I would like to see the software grow to reflect the current state of communication.

I thoroughly enjoyed using ZipWhip, I just wish they had a few more features. Such as searching by keyword through texts. Aside from that, it was very user friendly and fit our needs.

December 18, 2023

Pros

It was very easy to use and straight forward.

Cons

Did not like the fact that phone numbers would be entered automatically by the software, autocorrect, instead of what I was typing in.

### "Great option for getting texts at a work line"

April 21, 2022

4.0

Pros

I was shocked at how many people were texting an "office phone". I started receiving texts the day I turned this on, so I shutter to think of how many I missed prior.

Cons

This only does texting. I feel like current software options allow for texting/VOIP/etc all as one purchased service.

### "Great for individual communication on a companywide basis"

December 23, 2019

4.0

Zipwhip allows us to document as well as communicate. If there is a disciplinary problem, often it has played out via text messages. We use just one number so all of the texts from our caregivers come to the same place and can be dealt with by anyone in the office.

Pros

Zipwhip helps us get in touch with our caregivers individually and in groups when needed. We can also communicate without speaking to caregivers which might interrupt their day with a client.

Cons

Sometimes the messages do not refresh and I miss urgent messages. I'm not sure why this happens on my computer as I have noticed that it doesn't happen to my coworkers' desktops.

### "Zipwhip Review"

August 21, 2019

5.0

Zipwhip has been a key component to our success in selling tickets for FSU athletics. We are able to reach customers on a better level and open up a line of communication that we never had before. It is hard to imagine succeeding in the sports sales market today without a product like Zipwhip.

Pros

Zipwhip has a very easy interface to use and is very user friendly. All of our sales and service reps use it on a daily basis to get in touch with clients and offers us another avenue/ channel to reach them on a consistent basis. We have found that with the way technology has shaped our every day lives, it was vital for us to keep up with the times and find us a texting service that connects with our land lines in our office.

Cons

With us being on the East coast, it can sometimes be tough to contact someone if we have problems early on in the morning.
