We use Emitrr to communicate with our associates. From the beginning of the application/ inquiry process, to following up to make sure they show up on site. Easy as a Text message!
Emitrr is as easy to use as text messaging.
I think it's pretty expensive. Considering that text messaging is free from any cell phone carrier, and that I don't really use any other features, $85+ a month is pretty high.

Customer service, technical capability, uptime and client satisfaction are all off the charts with this piece of kit. Always getting better, and with a determination to become the very best alternative product in the market, Emitrr is the kind of business we should all be proud to run, and prouder to partner with to make our businesses better.
Emitrr offers the kind of campaign automation and overall channel optimization that you expect to see from Podium and others of the sort but at a fraction of the price. For the return on investment that you receive, this service is unparalleled and is ever-evolving based upon direct feedback from the users, something we've never experienced before in decades of business operations.
Emitrr is an ever-changing product. It will never be finished because it's always finding new and better ways to do things. There are technical challenges from time to time, but every time this team of superheroes comes up against a limitation, they just break straight through it and make the product better!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Andrew. Feedback like yours helps us to keep improving and providing our customers with the best! Its been a pleasure working with you.

We used Zipwhip until it shut down, and I have to say that after over 30 demos from other companies we finally ended up trying Emitrr. I was mortified to switch from Zipwhip, it was so simple and easy to use. Most of the demos I tried for other companies were either way more complicated than we needed, wickedly overpriced for a small business, did not have a cell phone app extension (crucial for...
The transition to Emitrr from Zipwhip was so seamless that it was unbelievable, including our custom templates. They do all the prep work for the transition behind the scenes so there was--in our case--zero down time when we switched. I cannot stress this enough. The user interface is very similar. Customer service is exceptional, absolutely exceptional. There are customizable "folders" you can...
Emitrr needs to work on a few things. If you print a conversation for a medical record for instance, it is not currently possible to select just the current conversation, it will pull up all of a client's previous interactions with you. There are work arounds if you are good with .pdf's but it is time consuming. Also when these are printed, currently the photos are not included. The button labeled "send" should say "compose or write", this has confused a few employees until you get used to it. Finally, it is quite a bit more expensive than what we had in the budget for texting but at least we are extremely pleased with the service and see how we can use it more fully in the future.

From our first interaction Emitrr has been helpful and friendly.
Emittr seamlessly migrated our entire chat history over from a no longer supported system. They did it perfectly, trained a huge team of volunteers and their support could not be any better, always quick, accurate and friendly.
It seems lame to say nothing but the cost is so so reasonable and it does absolutely everything we were looking for.

I became aware of a Emitrr through the staffing company that I’m involved with and I’ve just recently converted my electric bike shop to them as well. For nearly equal functionality, I’m saving more than $100 per month and the service has been extraordinary. Can reach someone nearly immediately, and would highly recommend to anybody else searching for this type of product.
It is a feature-filled product, comparable with everything else in the industry, but with a high level of service and customization at a great price.
Nothing to provide here. My experience has been stellar.

When we began our abandoned call texting pilot, our objective was to understand how much opportunity was being lost because we couldn’t answer the phones. I’ve been able to see an 8% lift in appointments booked (33% from new patients) because of the tool. After seeing the data, we’ve discovered the need to automate and send texts for pre-auth and lab delivery notifications which will eliminate 5-10% of my non-value add calls. We are also looking at texting solutions to write-back into the EMR when patients want to cancel, confirm, ask for directions, pay a bill, etc. So the idea is that it will reduce labor in the call center.
Emitrr is very accommodating and willing to create automation tools outside the traditional scope of just providing abandoned call texting solutions.
Would like to see more written presentation of capabilities.
Thank you so much for your feedback Leslie. It's been a pleasure working with you and the team.

Small glitches but Support is super fast ant taking care of the issue and explaining what happened.

Platform is very easy to use without glitches compared to other SMS platforms I've used. Customer service is quick and efficient! Pricing is great!
I can't think of any cons at this point for the product.

Our transition has been extremely smooth. The Emitrr team went overboard helping us to get situated and function as normal on their platform. They also helped us to understand all of the additional capabilities that Emitrr has to offer. We have just begun to scratch the surface with their product.
We shifted from ZipWhip to Emitrr. They did a fantastic job of knocking off the basic features and functionality of the software and service we had been using for the last 6 years.
Not much. They are still working through some small bugs and are very responsive.

Love the customer service
Broadcast messaging, standard pricing, closed features
Some of the Zipwhip features weren't available when we onboarded.

We have seen the same results with Emitrr if not better for mass text campaigns at a much better price than the last platform we were using. The support team at Emitrr is very eager to listen to any feedback and has implemented changes that help us very quickly. They make us feel like we are their only customers with the quick response rate!
The website is easy to navigate. It is nice having options for one on one messaging as well as text campaigns on one platform. Being able to move all phone numbers from our organization is great.
Emitrr has been working to add all features that we have asked that were lacking.

Emitrr was super easy to set up and use. We have not had any issues with Emitrr after we switched. The low price made it an easy decision to use Emitrr and we are very happy with our choice.
We only use the SMS functionality. It would be good if we could customize the settings and dashboard to eliminate all the other settings that we are not using to eliminate confusion with our employees.

I can’t say enough good things about Emitrr. In a short time it has had a noticeable impact on our business.
So very easy to use and to train our teams. Tons of features for the price. Tremendous value!
Can feel like a work in progress but when I reach out to them they are so quick to respond and start working on new features.

The program is fantasic but the customer service is where they shine. The suppoert staff is always available and clarifies every concern.
I've tried quite a few SMS and email marketing platforms and Emitrr is by far the least expensive and very user friendly.
The email portion could be expanded to store templates.

User friendly platform, cost, options, customer service, ability to improve and add new features, reliability, mobile app, unlimited texting with attachments and HIPPA compliance
None actually. Whenever I have feedback, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is very quickly to address it
Thank you so much Dr. Mina. Its been great working with you.

Very good, we switched from another Platform and the transition was mostly smooth and with few issues.
The ease of use and price are reasonable.
We would like more robust reports that include aggregated data from all sites and response times between when a message is posted and they receive a reply during working hours
