Avochato vs. Kumulos

Well suited: Problem resolution, timely response, 1-many communicaiton, event triggered automation, allows reservationists to text multiple people at one time, and puts all the relevant decision making information in a link. Also allows us to have a written record of the conversation. Less Appropriate: Still cannot replace the Southern hospitality of a phone call. Sometimes texting reaches a point, where a phone call can solve fix, or figure it out quicker

[The] platform fits great with distributed teams. It has some really great features around workflow approval, where you can set authors and approvers for work and then track and audit trail the approval. It's a great fit for anyone looking for an enterprise solution to deliver automated personalization at scale. I think it's less well suited to small start-ups. The platform is easy to use, but there's a lot in it, some of which won't be that attractive to a simple app that's just starting out.

• It was a bit clunky to figure out the scheduling function in the beginning, this could be improved
• Removing notifications for messages that are sent out and already managed.
• The system keeps all communication in one location, it would be helpful if the outbound messages were in one organized area and the incoming messages in a separate.

• Would like to see more channels, not just push and in app, SMS for example

Kumulos is doing everything we need and more. The cost is also very reasonable. It has cut down our need for SMS and has lowered our OPEX because of this. We also love the analytics that it provides and it gives us insight into the usage and engagement of our app.

Kumulos is just much easier to install, configure, and set up. Ongoing running costs are much much lower, especially because we don't need the constant support of a developer to complete day-to-day tasks. Other systems required a lot of technical support, not just in the setup but also in the ongoing operation.

• Great communication platform that has allowed us to speed up and communicate more effectively

• 81% increase in customer retention
• 27% increase in daily active users
