### "Great Product - Horrendous Customer Support"

September 6, 2019

3.0

Salespeople are very pushy and though I like the product the inability to cancel your account make it something I can't recommend to others and why I am writing this review.

Pros

The ease of use and simplicity of getting your company line the ability to text.

Cons

I wanted to try the software and after talking with the company they try and force you into a year contract. This should have been my first sign. After talking them into a month-to-month contract I talked with our phone provider who said they provide the same service for free. I am now going through the process of trying to cancel with Zipwhip and their customer support is horrible. I should have never signed up with them and would recommend to others really hesitating signing up with them unless a. you want to be with them for more than a year and b. never want to cancel after trying out the service because they make it almost impossible. Right now I am paying them and not even using the product.

Mark, we want to apologize for any negativity you experienced working with our team. We strive to provide friendly, prompt and helpful customer service and it sounds like we took longer than usual to respond to your requests. We have a 30-day cancelation policy and have confirmed that we processed your cancelation within that window and you should not be receiving additional invoices, but if you have any further issues please reach back out to our billing team at billing@zipwhip.com. Thank you for trying Zipwhip and for your patience.

### "Works great when it works"

January 26, 2019

4.0

Zipwhip is actively causing me business problems due to the fact they cannot support their product outside of regular business hours in the pacific time zone. They are an extremely risky solution provider if you intend to run the majority of your customer contact through SMS. And the ability to run the majority of your customer contact through SMS seems to be what Zipwhip’s “value proposition” is, so basically, don’t bother with these guys.

Pros

Easy to use, multi user single inbox for a “reception desk” type system.

Cons

Their customer service is nonexistent. If you have a problem outside of their normal business hours, too bad for you. Which is a fairly bitter pill when you have an established customer base accustomed to texting you, only to have some unknown error occur and be told by Zipwhip that someone will get back to you on Monday. Every software has bugs, but one should chose a partner based on how well they support you, and it appears support is a foreign concept to these people. It’s also the most expensive solution for this out there, and i have tried a few. I’ve switched to something 1/10th the price that does exactly the same thing, and i can get help with it on the weekend if so needed.

### "ZipWhip"

December 3, 2019

5.0

It's been a great experience for us. The people we've worked with at ZipWhip have been great.

Pros

ZipWhip is easy to use and provides and affordable solution for two way texting with our listeners. Listeners are able to text to our 800 number, the number that they are familiar with and use for calling. Having texting is especially important for our station that is geared to the younger listener. They are much more likely to engage through texting.

Cons

Can't think of anything that we don't like. The recent upgrade to the software has made group texting easier which is a plus too.

March 7, 2024

Great experience. We did not have to do the extra stuff like similar programs.

Pros

We really enjoyed the simplicity of Zipwhip really no strings attached. We would continue to use it if it was still in service.

Cons

The cons are that the system is no longer in service. If i was still in service we would still be using it.

### "Increases efficiency, customer satisfaction, and Employee satisfaction"

June 4, 2020

5.0

ZipWhip has helped us reduce the number of after hours calls by 90%, both with clients, leads, and employees. We have also seen a reduction in telephone time during office hours, as texts tend to be much quicker to handle than phone conversations. This is an effective tool for scheduling changes, new client meetings, and other operations communications. It also provides a paper trail that is not available with a telephone conversation.

Pros

Emailing has taken a back seat to texting in our organization, both with customers and employees. With ZipWhip, all office personnel can observe communications and everyone can see the response that was given. This internal communication transparency is cumbersome with a telephone or email.

Cons

It is not yet perfected with voice recognition on an iPhone. Spellcheck is still being perfected.

Reason for choosing Zipwhip

Cost and buyer experience.

### "Good product does what it says"

July 30, 2018

5.0

Ability to send and receive texts without owning a mobile device

Pros

I wont use a cell, so having people text me and then ask why I had not responded got pretty irritating to explain. My business number is all over the web and people assume you will respond to a text, so this is a must have for me.

Cons

The messages are restricted to 250 characters, not only is this a nuisance while sending but often incoming messages appear in sections and often in the wrong order. No support for short code texts, so I cant verify my number to sign up with online banking or zelle transfers, very annoying!

### "GREAT Messaging Tool, When It Works"

March 10, 2020

4.0

Pros

ZipWhip syncs with our CRM and records all text messages within our software, which is very helpful for maintaining relationships with our valued clients. It allows you to store pre-populated text messages for those common messages, and allows you to schedule future text messages, ensuring our customers get the right message at the right time.

Cons

ZipWhip seems to malfunction frequently. We've experienced times where text messages did not go through for long periods, or their site will be down for long periods. This makes it hard to rely on when we use it for our daily communication.

### "Great Choice!"

February 16, 2021

5.0

Texting is expected when doing business these days. This product allows me to meet that expectation and it's seamless to the client.

Pros

Uses your current phone#, landline or otherwise. So when you text someone they can call you back on that same number you texted from. Very similar to using a cellular phone. Nice integration!!!

Cons

Cannot send videos. Seems like a big deal, but honestly it's not. Also, on the computer app you can only send 250 characters, but on the phone app you can send 600. Kind of odd, would like to see that increased on the computer size. Or done away with all-together.

### "Great connectivity and enhanced customer experience with Zipwhip"

August 14, 2020

5.0

We have better touch with customers. Our quality control has been automated through Zipwhip and now requires minimal monitoring.

Pros

We've been using Zipwhip for 4 years now and love the product. We thought it was amazing when we started, but the features just keep getting better and better. Our customers love the reminders and updates they receive and we are able to check in with staff regarding their schedules.

Cons

There isn't anything that our team doesn't like. It lets us do so much now that the text has been expanded and we can attach photos, etc.
