Pros

It is so easy to implement. I can set up a new instance of SmileBack in less than an hour. I also love the integrations it offers. We integrated it into Teams so we could get real time feedback and see when clients leave us positive reviews.

Cons

It didn't have the ability to send surveys on projects, it had to be tied to a project ticket so we ended up having to have a special ticket status and use only on one ticket in the work plan.

The reviews our users provide via SmileBack is gathered in a dashboard that is simple to view online. We also gather the overall metrics in gauges through integration with BrightGauge. To address any negative or neutral reviews, we utilize integration with Connectwise, so that if non-positive feedback is received, our Service Manager is alerted for resolution and coaching opportunities.

Pros

SmileBack makes it incredibly easy for our clients to provide feedback on the service they have received. All that is required of them is to click an emoticon in an email, and then they can add a comment if they'd like. The information is gathered in a dashboard that is simple to view online and through integration with BrightGauge. We also utilize integration with Connectwise, so that if a negative or neutral review is received, our Service Manager is alerted for resolution and coaching opportunities.

Cons

I have not yet found anything about the software that I dislike. It is simple, easy to use, and provides the information our team needs to gauge how our support is being delivered and received.
