Harrison L.

Product Marketing Analyst

Pros

“We liked the flexibility to customise points, rewards, and customer tiers, and the dashboard is simple to use for tracking customer activity.”
NE

Nour E.

Owner manager

“We just started using Kangaroo and I love that it automatically applies points to customers accounts and does not rely on our sales people to manually enter them.”
JM

Jenny M.

Owner

“There are other small things that could be improved as well, such as (1) adding the option to clear customer points after a certain timeframe, e.g. a year after they acquired said points, (2) showing US zip codes in customer addresses, and (3) the ability to re-order active offers.”
EG

Erin G.

Marketing Specialist

Cons

“This adds a level of complexity to getting the updates pushed out to the sales teams. ”
LK

Lisa K.

Global Reference Program Manager

“Due to our complex attribute structure, we were not able to exploit all directly. ”
BC

Barbara C.

Global Reference Lead

“A bit clunky to navigate”
KW

Karie W.

Sr Director, Customer Marketing

Cons

“Sometimes the syncing between in-store and online customers is slow, which can create duplicate accounts or delays in points showing up.”
NE

Nour E.

Owner manager

“Not being able to adjust or change tiers without starting the customers back to 0.I wish it was easier to make changes without it effecting the customers points.”
RG

Rudy G.

“Additionally, sometimes, when logging into our account through Kangaroo, we have to wait for a second, reload the site, and log in again for it to pull up.”
