“The "Give Credit" system for giving credit to techs who don't automatically end up attached to their reviews (or those where multiple techs were on a single job) is a bit clunky - esp. in that it reloads to the first page of results each time a review is updated.“

### "Simple to Use, But Could Use Improvement in Small Areas"

September 22, 2021

4.0

Overall positive, and, again, a HUGE part of this is how quickly support staff responds to any issues we have.

Pros

The general ease of use and the attentiveness of support to any issues.

Cons

The social reviews features are still in beta, but in many ways for us these are the most important features (reviews left on PulseM directly are great for addressing negative experiences, but it's most important for us to get reviews elsewhere - esp. Google - up and to monitor these and give credit to the techs there who get positive ones, because these help bring in more leads). The "Give Credit" system for giving credit to techs who don't automatically end up attached to their reviews (or those where multiple techs were on a single job) is a bit clunky - esp. in that it reloads to the first page of results each time a review is updated.

### "Avoid them"

May 6, 2026

1.0

Terrible. Waste of time and money. They did not appear to make any attempt to address any issues that I had. I was unable to get questions answered or even find someone on the phone

Pros

They helped streamline communication with customers and asked for reviews. While we used them we got more google reviews than before we started

Cons

due to their intration, often our communications went to the wrong perople They didn't appear to make any attempt to fix any of my issues, and continued billing me after I cancelled. Now i'm getting letters from collections agencies

### "Pulse M Review"

September 17, 2021

5.0

Overall I would recommend this product to anyone looking to increase their Google and social media reviews.

Pros

It takes over review capture where we do not need to rely on only our technicians. Also, when you get an upset customer you are able to address their concerns before they take to social media.

Cons

We do not use the text feature much anymore. This is more because of regulations than the software itself.

Alternatives considered

[Podium](https://www.capterra.com/p/164285/Podium/)

Reason for choosing pulseM

PulseM was clear and upfront about what it can and will do. Podium was high pressure sales and vague on how it would do what it claimed. It was hard to get a straight answer.

### "Great software for reputation and review management. "

September 27, 2021

5.0

The experience has been great. Helpful team, great product, get's the job done.

Pros

The ability to increase platform reviews.

Cons

I wish there were more options for sending technician bio videos via text. Also, need to further the collaboration and integration with Service Titan.

### "Poor Service "

November 28, 2023

1.0

Very poor would not recommend to anyone. They have charged us $530 a month for over a year and promised to cancel our service since they did not meet the expectations they promised. And they still invoice us. One lined item being $100 charge for a feature they have never provided and refused to reimburse us. They take advantage of small company's. I am looking to sue, please look into other company's.

Pros

I do not recommend this company at all they are a scam.

Cons

Nobody at PulseM has a solution. It is a SCAM beware!

September 17, 2021

4.0

Overall, it's been good! I appreciate them.

Pros

Ease for customers and easy access when bad reviews come in.

Cons

Sometimes it is difficult to make sure PulseChecks aren't being sent to the right people or the amount of times they get the text/email.

September 17, 2021

4.0

Pulse M has been great so far just wish someone helped monitor to see if there is anything else we can do better.

Pros

I like it because it's user friendly and the ream was great helping me set it up.

Cons

I would like more features without having to pay for every add on. Or a plan that covers certain size company instead of per user.

### "Favorite Vendor"

September 29, 2021

5.0

Their entire team is always extremely timely to answer any questions. They are truly one of our favorite vendors to work with.

Pros

I must say that pulseM has been a true game changer for us in getting reviews from our clients. The automated text messages that go out to our clients at the completion of each job have been very effective in helping us to get participation in reviews. It is also great because we typically get real time results as clients are much more likely to respond to a text than an email, and we are able to address any less than perfect reviews immediately.

Cons

Honestly we have not utilized the software to it's full potential as far as using the dashboard to create contests for our teams but will be doing this in the future. It is a great feature.

Reason for choosing pulseM

We chose pulseM largely due to the fact that they are a preferred vendor for Success Group International members. We were able to meet their team at SGI Expos and found them to be very great people who show extreme concern with having happy clients and providing a to notch service!

### "Quick & Easy"

September 23, 2021

4.0

We see the value to having PulseM and have been with them now for a couple of years. Also, really like the value of having it integrated on our website making it an eye catching feature that entices potential customers to check out what previous customers have to say about their experience with our company.

Pros

The Pulse tool is very easy for our customers to write a review for us and takes away the excuse of it just takes too much time.

Cons

It is fairly expensive but obviously we do feel that we are getting the benefits to justify the extra expense compared to other products.

### "Great Software to generate Social Media Reviews"

October 1, 2021

5.0

Pros

Prior to using PulseM it took us 8 years to get 20 reviews on Google. After 3 years of using PulseM we are over 250 Google reviews. We use PulseM to let customers know we are coming out for a scheduled appointment. This notification system has saved us wasting time of driving to a customer's home and the customer is not home.

Cons

I would like the product to be a flat fee. As a company grows and adds people, the price keeps going up.

### "Automatic Reviews"

September 17, 2021

5.0

I like that Bio's are automatically sent to customers when technician is on his way to their home, and then a follow-up is sent for a review.

Pros

That PulseM is integrated with SW21 and is automatic so we don't have to send reviews out manually

Cons

I wish PulseM also did post card mailing that was integrated with SW21

Reason for choosing pulseM

It's integrated with SW21 software

### "Customer Contact & reviews made super simple. Period."

September 21, 2021

5.0

From sign up to onboarding to questions to integration, it has been simple & easy

Pros

This software allows us the ability to set parameters & forget it if we want. Or change it. It notifies our customers as a reminder of their scheduled appointment. It asks for the review & makes it super simple for the customer. Then we have all of the information that's been gathered to improve our customer service.

Cons

I would like the ability to turn off the notification manually for each customer instead of the way it is now that if we have a phone number listed, they will get notified

September 22, 2021

5.0

Overall, we have had a great experience with PulseM. If we have ever had any issues, they were prompt to help and respond. We love the charts that they provide for our teams so they can see their rankings.

Pros

We love that our customers can have real time notifications. Our teams love to see their ratings. The whole program makes it easy to manage positive and negative reviews.

Cons

I wish that it was integrated with our dispatching software and provided a tracking so the customer could watch our techs arrive to their home.

Reason for choosing pulseM

Price point and more options

### "PulseM"

September 17, 2021

4.0

We get more reviews and it helps boost our google rating. We are happy with it overall.

Pros

We use the bios and pulse checks daily - they're easy to use, but our users find themselves clicking around to find the page to send them to customers. We always go to dispatching first because it makes the most sense, but it's under operations. I like the weekly summation reports. I have notifications set up so I only get the negative feedback, which is fine.

Cons

We use the bios and pulse checks daily - they're easy to use, but our users find themselves clicking around to find the page to send them to customers. We always go to dispatching first because it makes the most sense, but it's under operations. I would like to be able to post the reviews that have no comments to our google account, but that isn't possible at this time.

Reason for choosing pulseM

We are members of the Success Group International. They have a vendor/partner night and we saw PulseM there. There was no shopping around or consideration of other products. We bought it on the spot

### "PulseM - Single Best Tool for Review Managment "

September 27, 2021

5.0

Pros

The features of the review management is worth its weight in gold for service companies like that use a great base of review to help generate more business as well as retain current customers. The ability to curtail negative reviews and the ability to make corrective action if a customer was not pleased with our service has been of the single greatest tools in my arsenal as an operations manager to help with client retention.

Cons

None or hardly any cons to speak of. Has been nothing but a positive experience for us since our launch.

Reason for choosing pulseM

Seemed to have the best value, and reviews from current users.
