We use it for sending various messages to clients, some completely unique and others are standard text which we save as "signatures" in our email program so we can easily insert them in our messages and then personalize them as needed. It saves us a lot of time on the phone, and we get replies more quickly, and it's easy to learn to use. The staff and clients both like it.

Pros

It's easy to use, simple & straightforward. We love that we can tell our clients to simply text our main business landline number. Many clients would rather text than call or email. And since our texts aren't coming from a short-code (like the prior service we used), clients trust it. We typically get quicker replies to texts than to voicemail or email messages. Does anyone even listen to their voicemails any more?

Cons

Emojis don't necessarily come through, but we can't really complain about that. The only Con I can think of it that we originally couldn't receive photos, but TextBetter made that possible & now we can! I think there's a small fee for that, which we're happy to pay. So move that Con to the Pro column.

Switched from

[EZ Texting](https://www.capterra.com/p/145848/Ez-Texting/)

With EZTexting, we had to use a keyword (and have clients use it) otherwise we wouldn't always get their replies. And many clients block texts from short-code phone numbers, and we wouldn't know our messages weren't reaching them. It met a need, but TextBetter meets it so much better!

As the owner of my own food delivery service I needed something easy and reliable to communicate with my clients. TextBetter saved my business! The program was easy to set up, affordable and improved the customer experience of my small business. I am now able to receive orders and give my clients real time updates via text. Thank you TextBetter!

Pros

This software is easy to use and reliable!

Cons

None - I had no problems setting up or using the software.

Pros

Really appreciate that it is a generic platform, so can be used across multiple industries or departments. It works well in both our sales and service operations! It was very easy to train our employees and the reporting is straight forward. Pricing per user is reasonable. The contact I work with is extremely responsive to any request I have.

Cons

Initially there were some features I recommended and the company took those and integrated them into the product. There is no downside that I can think of at this time.

Pros

Easy to use. Right to email we are already looking at. Saves time not having to talk on phone. Employees can answer when they have time, rather than get interrupted. Great customer service \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] if you do have an issue they are on it right away. Great service for the money.

Cons

Wish did not have to put a character to end the message out.

We have found the service to be affordable, reliable and the customer service to be to-notch! Adding the text feature through Text Better has been one of the best business decisions we have made!

Pros

It allows us to contact our clients, from our business phone, through an avenue that elicits a quick response.

Cons

The character limits. Although, that seems to be a carrier restriction and not a text better restriction. We, for longer messages, send emails first and then follow with a quick text to alert the client to check their email.

Reasons for choosing TextBetter

Pricing and responsiveness of customer service to answer questions and explain the service features.

It is great. It helps you centralize your communication with your clients. No more hunting for missed voicemails on work and cell phones and no more trying to find texts on your cell phone and converting it to emails.

Pros

You never know how many important texts you may have missed until you get this software. I was blown away. We not only received important information from the text, but have also gained new clients through it.

Cons

We are completely satisfied with the service.
