### "Sinch: Messaging at its finest"

December 4, 2025

5.0

Overall there were a lot if good things we appreciate about Sinch messaging — multi channel, 2 way conversational, and automation were a few reasons why we liked it

Pros

Two‑way, conversational messaging — It’s not just one‑way blasts: you can have real conversations over text, support customers, respond to inquiries, and keep the history in a shared inbox — which is great for engagement and support

Cons

For us, operating at scale or across regions, Sinch offers weak compliance, unsecure routing, — which matters if you’re sending sensitive or critical communications, wish it was better

December 8, 2025

Hi Nicholas Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are glad to hear that our two way conversational messaging, multichannel options, and automation are supporting your customer engagement work. We also appreciate you calling out where the experience has not met your needs. Your points on compliance and secure routing across regions are important, and we are actively working on improvements in these areas. If you would like to discuss your use case in more detail, we are here to help and make sure you get the reliability you need at scale. Sinch Team

### "Happy Client"

August 10, 2025

5.0

As an Arrears Officer, Sinch MessageMedia has been an invaluable tool in streamlining our arrears management process. The platform’s ease of use and reliable SMS delivery have allowed me to communicate with Lot owners quickly and effectively, reducing delays in payment follow-ups and improving overall response rates. One of the standout benefits is the ability to automate reminders and personalize messages, which helps maintain a professional yet approachable tone. This has led to more timely payments and fewer escalations. The reporting and analytics features also provide clear visibility into message delivery and engagement, allowing us to track performance and refine our communication strategies. Sinch MessageMedia has significantly enhanced our operational efficiency, reduced manual workload, and supported better outcomes in arrears recovery. We highly recommend it to any property management team looking to improve their communication and arrears processes.

Pros

What I like most about Sinch MessageMedia is its user-friendly interface and the reliability of its messaging platform. It makes communicating with clients fast and efficient, and the automation features helped streamline our workflows. The support team is also responsive and helpful whenever we needed assistance.

Cons

The template system setup in the SMS Messaging function as we still have to prepare the templates ahead of sending them and proof prepare them ahead of sending the messages

### "Bad technical support"

April 22, 2026

1.0

Pros

At first glance, the integration seems solid and ambitious. The interface is user-friendly, and \[sensitive content hidden\], our account manager, is also very pleasant to work with.

Cons

Very disappointing experience with this service on Zoho CRM. For several weeks, we encountered a critical issue that resulted in duplicate SMS messages being sent, causing significant and unnecessary costs on our side. Despite opening multiple support tickets and clearly explaining the situation, we did not receive any meaningful help or resolution from their team. There was no proactive investigation, no clear communication, and no accountability. In the end, we had to investigate the issue ourselves and identified that it was caused by an automatically generated workflow (created by their integration in Zoho CRM) that was incorrectly configured and resending messages even when they had already been successfully delivered. This is a fundamental flaw that should have been caught and resolved by their support team. To make matters worse, after updating the app, we lost access to the workflow history, meaning we no longer have formal proof—something their team should have helped us secure earlier given the ongoing issue. This situation has caused us financial damage amounting to several thousand euros. As of today, we are still waiting for a proper response, a refund for the duplicated messages, and accountability from their side. Overall, this reflects a serious lack of support, reliability, and professionalism. I cannot recommend this service.

### "Sinch is a Sinch!"

October 2, 2025

4.0

Love it - makes my day-to-day management so much easier and very organised and consistent. It is especially helpful when phone calls are just not possible especially with eh use of google translate embedded into the message system

Pros

Is easy to use - quite intuitive Helps me contact many people at once streamlines my communication on busy days I can be organised and schedule future messages

Cons

I often think I have return messages when I don't' because the red notification dot stays on most of the day after receiving one reply. Also occasionally if I click into another tab when I'm halfway through a message the message I'm working on gets deleted - perhaps there coudl be a text box "are you sure you want to delete this message/leave this page" - before its actually deleted

### "Sinch Message Media, Great Product, Amazing Support Staff."

September 2, 2025

5.0

Happy with the value for money, amazing support staff, willingness to go above and beyond to troubleshoot and remediate any issues at hand.

Pros

The support models is good, support techs know the product are responsive, helpful and always concise with the outcomes.

Cons

Initially can be challenging for non-technical people to learn the different options and ways in which to use the platform and get a Roi, in saying that there are a lot of 'how to' articles that are helpful.

### "Some pros and some cons. "

August 12, 2025

3.0

Overall, it's adequate - it has the basics and when it works, it works well. Support is responsive (overnight), but can take a few days to actually get things resolved.

Pros

Clean interface, simple and it works. The customer support responds overnight and eventually gets the job done.

Cons

One of the sub-accounts wasn't showing delivery status until we opened a support ticket, and asked for it to be escalated. It took a few days to get resolved. Not as many API/interface options as competitors.

### "Awesome Easy to Use Platform for Reaching Customers Quickly and Efficiently"

June 30, 2025

5.0

Overall we have been extremely happy using Since MessageMedia. It has saved us a considerable amount of time and repetitive work to send out text messages. We have set up ongoing message campaigns that has helped us generate more repeat clients. It is very user friendly and we are very happy with the service.

Pros

It's so easy to use to reach out to our clients as part of our marketing strategy. Very clear desktop layout and helps us cut office admin time significantly by reaching multiple clients in targeted campaigns.

Cons

There is nothing we think needs to be improved with the platform. Sometimes we have to log out with error messages saying "failed to load" but this is likely due to internet access not issues with the platform itself.

Hi Colleen, Thanks for the great feedback - we’re thrilled to hear the platform is making it easier to reach clients, run targeted campaigns, and save time on admin work. It’s great to know our automations and scheduling tools are helping you generate more repeat business. We appreciate you noting the occasional “failed to load” message and are glad it’s not impacting your overall experience. If it ever becomes more frequent, our support team would be happy to help investigate. We’re so pleased to have you with us and look forward to supporting your continued success. Sinch Team

### "Helpful support"

October 30, 2025

5.0

We use Sinch Message Media every day and it is an invaluable service for our charity. My concern is that as it has become a bigger company the customer support has become more remote and less personal.

Pros

Ease of use - it is a user friendly service and over the years we have been using Message Media it has developed and has been responsive to our needs

Cons

The Chatbot isn't that helpful and just sends a list of FAQs which is frustrating and impersonal especially as none of the FAQs were relevant to my request

Hi Cherry, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you find our service user-friendly and valuable to your charity. We apologize for your frustrating experience with our chatbot and are working to make it more helpful and personal. We're also taking your feedback about customer support seriously and are reviewing our processes to provide a more personal experience. Sinch team

### "A handy, worthwhile service"

October 1, 2025

5.0

Excellent. A handy tool and quick way to SMS. It has become a key tool in communicating with clients, especially the sometimes hard to engage younger people.

Pros

The function to schedule appointment reminders. Especially helpful when only working part-time in the role.

Cons

That I need to remember to leave the window open to check for messages. I’m not alerted to them like a mobile phone.

Thanks for the fantastic feedback! We're glad the appointment reminders are helpful and that you're finding it an effective way to communicate with clients.

We're happy our platform has become a key tool for you we truly appreciate you sharing your feedback with us. Sinch team!

### "Generally positive"

May 7, 2026

4.0

Generally positive, however the pricing model is not as flexible or attractive for smaller businesses. Aimed at larger markets.

Pros

Large scale business with global reach and deep resources both within product and support network. Focus on Text messaging which is required.

Cons

Because it is a global business it doesn't feel like SME customers and the local touch is a priority or focus.

Hi Mark, thank you for your review! We’re glad you value our global reach and deep resources in text messaging. We also genuinely appreciate your honest feedback regarding our pricing model and SME support. Businesses of all sizes are incredibly important to us, and we are sorry if you felt a lack of that "local touch." We take your comments seriously and will share your insights with our team as we continually work on ways to better serve our smaller business customers. Thank you again for helping us improve!

Pros

October 2, 2023

5.0

I just wanted to thank Grant, Justin, Francisco and Jeremy for all of their help. They all had a solution to everyone of my questions I was throwing at them. The end result has made a huge impact on our company on how we interact with our current clients and new potential customers. Overall experience was and continues to be Awesome!!!

Pros

The bulk texting solved a big need we had to notify our customers when things were due. The Sinch hub made it so simple to just copy and paste the number type your msg and send. The results were immediate! We also love the Zoho integration!

Cons

How long it took to text enable our existing 800 number the carrier took forever! Sometimes the dashboard will not load the recent inbound msg and you always have to click the try again button to get them to load.

May 25, 2022

3.0

It is okay, sometimes still very slow and shows crashes from time to time, but it is useful

Pros

I like the opportunity to view tickets from a offline perspective and also being able to read chats of other agents without the need of re-assign

Cons

i don't like how chats add up, one after the other horizontally. If at times lots of chats come in at the same time, they are not visible and just disappear once at the scrolling element of the browser page. Maybe changing the way they enter or the location of the list would help

Pros

The Messenger Communication Platform is really easy to use and has transformed our customer service offering. Not only are we now able to provide answers to user questions 24/7 through the automated response system, but we are also able to offer personalised communications with our support team with the live chat function, all using WhatsApp. So far the feedback has been amazing.

Cons

The analytics could be a lot better. We are currently having to do a lot of manual work gathering meaningful metrics. The pros far outweigh the cons though.

Increased show rates.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to create and share templates, easy to create user accounts, detailed reporting, easy to configure user setting except time zone.

Cons

When I keep a session open for a while and come back to do something it gives me error. Another issue we're having is messages are being sent from random numbers but ideally it'd be great to send it from the same area code to avoid any confusion on receiver's end. Currently, I'm working with MM Support to apply the solution that has been suggested. It's so confusing to set time zone based on city or state.
