“Text Request had made my first office job easy to accommodate to as communication is what keeps a facility moving forward, and text request has done nothing but give us the ability to move forward stronger.”

Cons

“It keeps the records and threads you don't need anymore, making it easy to choose the wrong number for the same person if you were not paying attention.”
SK

Sisi K.

“I didn't like that I couldn't send long form video or that sometimes on wifi, I couldn't get great reception.”

“You can not use your regular phone number and it is very clunky.”
BD

Blake D.

Trades specialist

Cons

“The bad thing is that it does not refresh automatically when making a change and sometimes it freezes when I use copy and paste on several open pages.”

“I normally tell students to text me when they need help, but with TextRequests notification issues, I have had to resort to having them call me, which makes juggling multiple conversations very difficult.”
JC

Jacob C.

Instructor

“I am also not a fan of the incoming message notification chime ( it does sound off until you open the platform, which is a good thing), it does not always sound and there have been many occasions that I missed or was too late responding to messages because I received no notification.”
