SlickText vs. Textedly

Very well suited for those getting started with SMS campaigns. It was easy for everyone on our team to pick up and get going without a lot of training. If you have mobile number lists in the hundreds of thousands I can see how it would be tough to manage with the lists, keywords, etc. I could be wrong as we are not in that space but that would be my assumption.

In my opinion, this program would be well suited for any business that wants to keep its employees engaged. It gives almost a personal touch to let them know about alerts, company activities, office closures, etc.

• User friendly interface
• A good resource for making sure we maintain compliance with all the privacy policies
• The text-to-join feature looks awesome. That is the one we are hoping to get started soon.

• Real time updates.
• Piece meal subscriptions.
• Distribution of information.

• Easy to find resources for short codes
• The current automation is nice for beginners but it's not terribly sophisticated for experienced users
• Minimal integrations to this point but I'm sure more are on the way

• When I delete someone from the system because they have left the company, I'd like to see them actually DELETED from textedly.

From my experience, their customer service has been disappointing. They have not been willing to work with me and my needs. When pricing was significantly increased, I was not informed of this in advance. It simply increased and I discovered it by accident while reviewing my subscription.

Very easy to use. Intuitive website that our entire team has been able to quickly pick up. In my opinion it is the most user friendly interface of all the software we did demos with.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm just overlooking something because it's so easy to use. It literally took no time to be up and running with this program.

When I ask questions to customer service, the questions are not all answered. They do not come back with alternative suggestions for me and my subscription. They are not rude but only provide standard "answers" that it appears they have been coached to give

We felt SlickText was the most user friendly, budget friendly, and we liked the fact that they didn't balk at the fact we wanted to go month to month to start so we didn't end up in a long term commitment right out of the gate.

• We are receiving a click through rate anywhere between 12-20% on our renewal reminder texts
• Those people who click have a conversion rate of around 50% which is the best of any of the campaigns we run
• One negative could be if we start to use the tool for promotional texts then there may be a negative impact on the member experience. Need to use it in moderation

• Textedly has freed up a lot of my time previously sending out individual messages to different contacts. With the built-in client database and the ability to quickly send off mass messages, I now have more time to focus on the areas of my business I'd been neglecting.
