### "A good tool for handling SMS "

June 16, 2023

3.0

Overall, Whispir is a good platform form handling SMS

Pros

I like most in Whispir I can easily check if the SMS are delivered or not but we encountered a lot of times that the status is delivered but our customer didnt receive the SMS. They also have good customer service.

Cons

The only cons is troubleshooting technical details that requires telco cannot be done. We have instance that we have to reach out to the actual telco to do end to end troubleshooting. This should be part of service recovery from Whispir and not from the customers

Rich messaging, rapid stakeholder communications.

Pros

ServiceNow plugin allowing automated alerts on high priority events and incidents.

Cons

Limitations on Alias Manager for reply messages. UX is not always intuitive and takes much trial and error to unravel. The support team has been very good on this point.

### "An Effective Messaging Solution"

January 13, 2021

4.0

We have used Whispir as our messaging solution for a number of years now. It's not the cheapest on the market, but it gives us a good mix of services for messaging, in a relatively easy-to-use interface. Plus additional savings can be attained when sending at higher volumes. The API is robust and has served us well in our high-frequency implementation. The Whispir platform continues to improve, as with the addition of new integrations into WhatsApp, although we have not used those yet. And we see many areas, like Incident Management and Operations, where the Whispir solution can be used effectively to keep teams informed. I hope they will continue to develop a better UI, and more intuitive menus and navigation in the portal. The Whispir team have been very supportive and responsive, and we're very happy to have them as a messaging partner for our business.

Pros

Whispir features web-based configuration and the ability to segregate projects and teams into Workspaces. This allows us to access our Whispir account from anywhere and build specific work environments for our various products and teams. Whispir provides a unified portal for both SMS and email messaging, which gives us centralized control of our templates and distribution. Pretty much everything we need the Whispir platform to do, can be achieved out of the box. And the support is great!

Cons

While the Whispir portal is relatively simple, it takes a little time to navigate effectively and to figure out where, and what, all the various settings and controls are. For instance, some settings might be global whereas others might only be Workspace-related. Also, it would be great to have more visibility of the status of messages, especially mission-critical SMS. Fortunately, we can always rely on Whispir support to provide us with the information we need, but it would be great to be able to get at it ourselves.

### "Versatile communications platform"

May 8, 2023

5.0

Overall, Whispir is a great communications platform to meet anyone's needs. There is work underway to make the experience more modern, and hopefully reporting will be improved, but the current experience for sending messages works as expected and meets my needs and my service consumers.

Pros

Ability to manage the Whispir platform as a service for our Customers is great - we can cost recover to lower our expenditure and don't have to pay everyone's message fees. The ability to send bulk messages via a spreadsheet is also great as well as complex message options through the API.

Cons

Reporting is always a hassle - you have to manually create each report and then manipulate the data in excel before visualizing any trends for insights.

Reason for choosing Whispir

Whispir has all the bells and whistles you would want as well as the ability to manage communications as a service for service consumers.

### "Easy to deploy. Easy to use. "

June 1, 2023

4.0

Pros

Whispr is a very easy off the shelf product when it comes to mass texting or even email marketing. It's freedom to customize the email template gives it a personal touch to customers.

Cons

The errors when an SMS was failed to send is very generic. The templates prepared are very rigid and cannot be customized to our country's standard information (eg. phone number code).

### "Feedback on Whispir service"

December 19, 2022

3.0

Overall, working with Whispir is good, the account managers are helpful. Sometimes, what I experience though when working with technical support staffs is that some of them is not that strong in terms of their domain knowledge of the functionalities and capabilities of Whispir and how it interacts with external system, like communicating with Telco's SMS services. This is based on my experience working on some issues in the past where technical support is not very helpful.

Pros

The template management and SMS messaging are the most impactful features for us. We are heavily SMS sending to our customers hundreds if not thousands of messages to our customers. On most cases, SMS are sent almost instantly.

Cons

I have not used or tried some of the features, though what I sometimes find a bit confusing is the status of SMS sending. We need to know if a particular SMS is sent and received successfully by our customers. It may not be very clear if the current status clearly states that the customer device has received the SMS or the Telco only sent it.

### "Review for Whispir"

June 1, 2023

5.0

A very comprehensive program with a lot of features. Whispir staff was professional with their help and assistance throughout the journey from the start till the final UAT of the program and now, the after-sales support.

Pros

The "flexibility" of the program allowed us to "customize" the message contents, the arrangement of the contacts according to our evolving organization requirements.

Cons

A lot of fantastic features that are additional "add-ons".

March 14, 2023

4.0

Overall, Whispir platform is an efficient communication solution. Consider exploring Whispir for your specific communication needs.

Pros

The user-friendly interface is one of the things I enjoy using Whispir. It's easy to navigate, even for those who are not tech-savvy. The platform also offers a range of customizable templates that I could use to create engaging template for consumers.Another standout feature of Whispir is creating automated workflows that trigger messages based on campaigns. This helped to streamline the processes and save resources.

Cons

As the cost is complex, it could be challenging to estimate and compared the cost with other communication platforms in the market.

April 17, 2023

4.0

Very good. Support is outstanding and very quick to respond.

Pros

Whispir support team is exceptional. Some functionality could be improved, not intuitive. Overall though a very easy and effective platform to use.

Cons

Can not remove those who have unsubscribed from your list/user view completely. Don't like that they are still visible. These should be automatically removed from the list or at least to have the users placed somewhere other than on the left hand side.

### "Informational email campaigns to CareFirst members"

December 16, 2020

4.0

We run email campaigns related to members' medical insurance. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, we are especially pleased to be able to send members timely information and measure the member engagement using Whispir.

Pros

We send ~1 million emails weekly using the Whispir API. With Whispir's help, we developed an automated process to run our campaigns via the API. We've encountered numerous issues over the last 3 years and have learned a fair amount about running successful email campaigns, specifically, the need to continuously add to our library of mitigation plans. Our account team, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] have provided outstanding support, invaluable guidance and were able to draw on the larger Whispir Support team, as well as their Executive team to suggest solutions to issues encountered. In the process, we have been able to add robustness to our workflow, and significantly augment our campaign success measures.

Cons

The user interface, although intuitive and user friendly, is not always able to handle reporting for the larger email campaigns.

Pros

### "Whispir as a communication platform"

June 21, 2023

3.0

It is great for mass communication and it work fine once setup.

Pros

We find Whispir to be a easy to use platform when sending out mass communication to our staff. The ability to create an adhoc message and send to all at once is great. The delivery report is also useful to know whether the message was delivered or not. We have built an integration with Azure AD so that our staff contact information is pushed from AD to Whispir using API exposed by Whispir. Support is great as well.

Cons

It is a bit pricy as compared to other SMS gateways. Use and creation of templates is not trivial.
