### "Textellent Is One Of My Favorite Tools"

February 26, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like using Textellent because it allows my clients to easily schedule appointments and it integrates with my tax software so it automatically follows up with my tax clients based on the status of their tax returns. My favorite feature is probably the "Happy Birthday" texts because the clients love receiving them.

Cons

I wish that the software had the ability to have clients pay for certain types of appointments at the time of scheduling. That feature would eliminate the additional step for the client.

Very good, my clients love the birthday and holiday texts and keeps year round communication. Great value for the firm

### "This Company Is a Hot Mess"

December 6, 2019

2.0

Mediocre at best. Could live with the other short falls but now I cant do the job I'm paid for because I cant sign into any accounts that has this number! The owner doesn't seem to care less.

Pros

I like being able to text my clients for request of information as they respond quicker. Also some of the campaigns such as Birthday greetings and the Referral request that we use to notify clients that the clients tax return has been completed taxes with a ask for referrals.

Cons

The customer support has been horrible. I had issues that were never resolved and I was trying to get a conversation with the owner but I would have a better chance of making an appointment with God...as its not happening. I use this to get codes so I can sign on to my tax accounts but it has stopped working. No one can give me a explanation and they will look into it. The problem is now I have to re register and change all my account phone numbers because I cant get the code, Soooooo mad and a waste of my time. You know things are bad when even a employee says there is a lot going on things going on and things aren't good and they feel my pain!

The client informed us of a technical issue on evening of Thu 12/5/2019. Our client support team needed to flag the issue to technical support who researched it the next day. The client was notified to clear the browser cache and the issue was resolved by morning of Monday 12/9. We feel sorry that the client had to deal with this. Thank you so much for your support and trust. We are standing by Mon-Sat to provide live customer support.

### "Your office needs this app! "

February 21, 2026

5.0

Textellent has been a game changer in our office! Life is so fast paced anymore and this is the most convenient way for people to communicate.

Pros

Our clients and our entire office love Textellent. It's so convenient, easy to use to share information and documents, even our elderly clients use it! Our clients rely on their reminder texts which also helps us plan our busy days as they can easily cancel or inform us if they're running late. Textellent customer service is top notch, easy to reach and helpful and friendly. It is totally worth the money!!

Cons

We have had issues with deceased clients getting Happy Birthday texts, so unfortunately, we've disabled the function, which is a shame because our clients liked getting them.

### "Great Texting App for Clients"

February 19, 2026

5.0

Good experience. I am happy with their customer support. It took a little while, but it all worked out beautifully.

Pros

Textellent is an easier way to manage and send mass texts to my clients. Instead of caling every clients before the season kicks off, I can send a mass text.

Cons

The learning curve is a little awkward, but manageable. I had some difficulty because of my setup, but Textellent was able to work with me.

Pros

We have been using Textellent for over 10 years. All of our clients LOVE Textellent because they receive important information quickly and can send updates quickly to us. An easy and fast way to pass information.

Cons

Over the past 10 + years we have not found any negative issues with Textellent.

Reason for choosing Textellent

### "Interactive texting for tax professionals & accountant d"

January 20, 2022

5.0

My office saves 15-20 hrs a week since we don’t have call to remind clients of their appointments anymore; also we save time in that clients can book their own appointments via the bookmeatime feature.

Pros

I like that textellent integrates with my tax software & automatically notifies clients when Irs/state returns are acknowledged and when bank product returns are funded. I also like I can go into textellent from inside my tax prep software to send clients messages or questions.

Cons

Honestly, only thing I disliked was responding client text coming in after hours, BUT Textellent has implemented this year a way to stop this with the “After-Hours Responder”

Reason for choosing Textellent

None applicable

December 6, 2022

5.0

Textellent system works great. I love the CRM functions. But, most important is their customer service that is here to help you every step of the way. Thank you Alvin!

Pros

The automation is the best feature of the software. I don't have to hire additional staff to response to clients. Therefore, keeping more money in my pocket.

Cons

I really did not have any con's about the software at this time. Textellent is ahead of the game.

Reason for choosing Textellent

easy to use. User friendly.

### "Every Tax Practice Needs This Product!"

August 17, 2021

5.0

In the early days of the pandemic, the IRS and SBA issued guidance almost daily. In order to prevent a phone system overload (and angry clients!), we sent updates to the entire client population every time the government announced a change to unemployment, EIDL grants and PPP loans. Clients thanked us for the timely, relevant, actionable advice.

Pros

The software delivers its promise; we can easily text the entire client base in minutes.

Cons

There were no downsides to using this product.

### "Communications made easy. "

January 21, 2022

5.0

Pros

Ability to mass text as well as text clients individually.

Cons

Calendar needs more flexibility to schedule provider availability on a daily/weekly basis rather than having set work schedule. It would be great to go in and schedule changes for next few months for each provider rather than having to go in each week to make a change.
