Carlos R.

Front Desk Manager

“They sell you message credits and, one assumes that the credits will count toward a fair value toward each client you message.”

William C.

owner

Victor M.

Pros

“What I like best about Text Request is that as an agency, we can plan ahead and send mass text messages in order to create engagement with our customers.”

Anette D.

Customer Service Rep

“The ability to send bulk messages, schedule texts, and set up automated campaigns has significantly improved how I interact with clients.”

Monisha R.

“The ability to quickly and effectively reach associates, streamlines communication, ensuring messages are delivered and received in real-time.”

Erica R.

Recruiter

Cons

“These credits are like 'airline miles'. If your message are not kept exceedingly short or if you add a pic; they will whack you so hard it will hurt.”

William C.

owner

“Also, the subscribers feature is confusing and very time consuming to add users/numbers to the software.”

Crystal H.

Executive Business Growth Strategist

“I paid for a years worth of messages but they doled them out to me one month at a time. When I asked to use my remaining credits all at once, they refused.”

William C.

owner

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.”

AGENT SALES

“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.”

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.”

Mellissa C.

Instructor
