    We used Synergy two years ago for a one-off text campaign for our EOY Fund, but it was managed by our direct mail partner at the time. We prefer working with TEA because we can import and export the information ourselves and the pricing is affordable.

    Text-Em-All was the first and only choice. Prior to coming on board we were using a messaging system that was geared towards educational systems and it did not work nearly as efficiently has Text-Em-All has worked. The ease of use made it the decision to move to Text-Em-All easy.

    Text-Em-All allows us to add and subtract folks from our contact list easily, where Textedly only has the option of static contact lists where once someone is removed from the list they cannot be put back onto the list without jumping through hoops.

    We have only used Text-Em-All, but have liked it so much we have stayed with it. We have another program that could potentially be used in this way, but Text-Em-All is more cost-effective, allowing you to add funds as needed instead of monthly charges.

    Text-em-all was a recommendation from a mutual customer. The integration with CRM can be better (writeback capabilities) that automatically enter in notes within our CRM system. This is a glaring issue that will be a major win.

    We have found them to be very good for immediate communication of a brief message to a large number of people at once. Thus, it works perfectly for a neighborhood association. It may not be suitable for longer messages or situations with excessive notifications.

    Pros
    Text-Em-All
    • Scheduled delivery: works as it should every time and is SUPER convenient.
    • Mass contact upload: I was able to pull a report to excel and it loaded PERFECTLY to ‘Contacts’
    • Feedback: if anyone doesn’t get the message, I will know almost immediately.

    Cons
    Text-Em-All
    • My initial concern was regarding the "opt out" feature. I work with the senior population, and many of whom are not that tech-savvy. I have a couple of residents who had unintentionally opted out of messages thinking it was an individual message they were skipping. I would suggest that there be a clarifying question when a user chooses to opt out; it should default to opting out of a single message and survey the user to see if they would like to opt out of receiving additional messages. My residents were wondering why they were missing information and why I hadn't informed them of important dates and events.

    Text-Em-All is a great way to get messages to our associates versus posting on a memo board and hoping they see it. Very efficient. I would recommend this great tool to companies big or small as a form of business related communications. The only thing I would change is the ability to use more characters in the messages. And it would be a plus if you can translate to different languages in the app.

    Usability
    Text-Em-All
    It's fantastic. In general, it's a 10. But I give it a 7 because of the way I know it can improve. I save my workers' names in lists...and I have only the first and last name fields to classify them. I grade my workers based on their experiences and based on their jobs; so I use the last name field to group them. This could be easier by you adding another field.

    Return on Investment
    Text-Em-All
    • We definitely have a higher response rate when we contact applicants via text message; it seems to be the thing people check more often than email now.
    • It saves us a lot of time wasted before with "phone tag" when employees are unable to immediately to take a call.
