Pros

We've been glad for the ability to have an SMS feature that can be shared across multiple sales people in our call center. It's been a good value, priced well.
Just a great Hubspot integration with an amazing customer service team. Definitely know what they are doing and they are excellent in helping you reach your goals.
It's super easy to navigate around. The software itself is very responsive and fast to work with.

Pros

The customer support provided is excellent. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and effectively.
One of the things I appreciate most about this software is the ease of use and the ability to quickly and efficiently engaged users.
Text Request gives us another quick, easy way to connect to our clients and gives them the ability to reach out to us any time of day. Their customer service is amazing.

Cons

The system is slow and the app does not work that well.
It is very hard to carry on a conversation via the app. Being tied down to a computer to respond to customers is not ideal for the mobile business we are.
I find the schedule later feature a bit confusing. I'm always thrown by having to select today, tomorrow, etc. I end up programming a date anyway, but I'm nervous it won't go on time.

Cons

We contacted customer service about this problem but they were not able to provide any assistance.
The biggest problem we have is that the mobile app loads very slowly.
It can also be challenging knowing if our texts are coming across as spam due to the acronym of our name and using a link (things that alert spam).

It lets me text customers and keep track of all text threads separate from my personal phone number. This is great!

Ability to tag, opt out and manage text messages.

Cons

The system is slow and the app does not work that well. It is very hard to carry on a conversation via the app. Being tied down to a computer to respond to customers is not ideal for the mobile business we are. It would be nice to receive a text while I am out of office and be able to respond right away opposed to waiting to get to a computer to respond.

Hi Matthew, we do have a mobile app for Android and iPhone so you can text on the go. Just download the mobile app and this will solve your problem.

Easy to Use

Reviewed 3 years ago

It's far easier for me to text if they are busy at work themselves, it's less intrusive than a phone call.

Pros

I use salesmsg for texting back and forth with our clients. It's gives me their contact info at a glance, and is easy to use.

Cons

Very rarely there is a bit of a lag, and I'll get a response later, but it happens very rarely.

Superb Text message Platform, a new channel for reaching your customers and getting results

Reviewed 6 years ago

I've worked with Salesmsg (Sales Message) for awhile and am part of the team building out the product, so I want to make that clear before you read my review. I've found that the two way text messaging platform is easy to use and would recommend this to any business looking more than a sales text messaging service. This platform is great for sales, marketing, customer support and internal team use. It really has applications for almost any business need where you're trying to reach customers. Text messaging gets such a higher response rate than any other channel (much higher than email) it would be a great option for any small to enterprise level business looking to dive into a text message based solution to reach their customers.

Pros

Great product and innovative team, the ease of use and expanding functionality of the product.

Cons

Can't find anything that I didn't like, the platform is easy to use and the interface is easy to understand.

Although some areas, such as pricing and reporting capabilities, could be improved, many users appreciate Salesmsg's excellent customer support and training resources. Overall, businesses can benefit from using Salesmsg to enhance their text messaging capabilities.

Pros

Salesmsg software is highly regarded for its ease of use, automation features, real-time notifications, personalized templates, and smooth integration with other tools. i also appreciate the software's exceptional customer support and access to helpful training resources.

Salesmsg Integrates Well - Business Text-Messaging Made Simple

Reviewed 2 years ago

Allows me to not have my personal cell # floating out there, when I can use my SalesMsg #.

Pros

Seamlessly integrates into HubSpot so I can use the app on my phone when I'm on the go, or use it right inside HS when at my desk and don't have to download other apps or open more browser tabs to communicate with prospects and clients.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lag between when I click on the number I want to text and when I'm able to begin composing a message. Happens rarely, but enough that it's annoying.

Perfect for sales, but not for broadcasts

Reviewed 6 years ago

It was really easy to setup and the customer support has always answered my questions quickly. I ask a LOT of questions of support teams and they have done a great job at helping even when they couldn't directly solve my problems.

Pros

We've seen a big improvement in our appointment attend rate from connecting Salesmsg to Zapier to automate SMS reminders and start an instant conversation. Just being able to simply text back and forth has really helped our sales process.

Cons

The mobile app is difficult to use. It struggles to load messages so we find ourselves using the desktop app 99% of the time.

Pros

Technology is not my strong suit -- but this is as straightforward and easy to use as they come -- and makes it so much easier to be able to text from a computer rather than a cell phone -- easier to integrate with our CRM as well.

Cons

If there is a way to schedule texts for a later time I haven't found it -- but it would be helpful! I'm on the East Coast and sometimes want to reach people on the West Coast....but not at 6 am their time!

Perfect ActiveCampaign Companion

Pros

Super easy ActiveCampaign integration. Works amazingly well with automations, app is clean, messages go through without a problem and all messages are recorded in my active campaign contact notes. I’ve used a few other services and this is by far the best for 2 way automated text campaigns and automation.

They have been great about communication and helping us get everything up and running! Portia rocks!

Pros

I love that it works with our CRM system and our VOIP phone numbers. So I can track all activities that my sales team is doing and it's easier for them to track their activities. I can't imagine trying to track individual text messages back and forth with prospects on our CRM without it.

Cons

We are still getting use to it so I don't have any complaints yet. I would say if there was a way for us to click in our CRM prospect file to open up SalesMsg directly, that would be a game changer!

Perfect for What I Use it for

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

I offer my Math/Physics students text support between sessions. They LOVE that I do this, as it helps them if they have a crucial assignment due, or are studying for a test and 'get stuck'. Having a separate number from my personal line maintains my privacy, and I can easier set my hours for notifications. I also love that I can use it from my computer, not just my phone!

Cons

I REALLY would love to be able to send pdfs from my phone, not just from the computer. Please add that feature!

Vendor response

Good news! You can add attachments via texting with Salesmsg. Just upload the PDF and attach it to your text message. Grateful, you're loving Salesmsg :)
