    Chose EZ Texting
    Trumpia is expensive, clunky and complicated. EZ Texting is not, it's a breath of fresh air and how a platform should work.

    For what we use EZ Texting for (Emergency contact system), it does what we need and is very easy to manage and keep up to date. The team always reaches out to see if there is anything more we need, which is kind as well. I can't speak to its features as a whole, however, as its use is very narrow in scope in our business.

    Trumpia is very good for a small to mid-size company that sends out texts 1 to 2 times a month. If you are large organization, have a lot of email records and/or send out texts very frequently throughout the month Trumpia may not be the most cost effective option. In that case it might be better to explore whether or not your CRM has text message functionality and see how that compares to Trumpia

    Cons
    CallFire
    • Drafts don't save well, seemed like I kept having to redo the same text because a draft wouldn't save.
    • I want to be able to click and update users quickly, but there were too many steps to add/remove people from lists.
    • The app didn't work if I used google SSO - i couldn't ever get signed in.

    • They could do a better job of bridging the gap between their platform and client's CRMs to ensure that information is shared in both places.

    We're excited about EZ Texting and what it does for us. We want to get more into automation with campaigns dealing directly with web sales so a more robust solution will likely leave EZ Texting as our event activation partner and only be used during select times of the year.

    Usability
    CallFire
    I think it is straightforward to use. UX is always challenging, and the platform does an excellent job of making it easy enough to use. However, it's not 100% intuitive and takes just a bit of figuring out, so I gave it an 8 / 10. It's easy enough as is, but of course, it could always be better.

    EZ Texting "gets it"! When I have had something I needed customer service to help me with, they returned my emails and calls promptly. I have a smaller business and they came through as if I was a huge corporate entity. They really care about all sizes of customers!

    Implementation Rating

    The most important aspect of implementation was selecting a valuable keyword. When we first started using EZ Texting, we were able to grab a simple, easy word to use to connect people to our texts. That proved invaluable in our marketing and selling people on using the service. If we didn't have a good word, I would imagine it wouldn't have been as successful.

    EZ Texting has a much better user interface and better support. At first I wanted to "pay as you go" so switched from EZ Texting to BulkSMS. BIG MISTAKE. After 2 hours of banging my head against the wall, I went straight back to EZ Texting and paid the little extra monthly and it was like light from Heaven shined down upon me

    We have only used Trumpia since we began sending out promotional text messages back in 2016. We have been very happy with Trumpia therefore we have not had to explore any other providers. The only other option that we may explore in the future is sending out promotional texts messages directly through our CRM and see how that works

    • Upselling items has improved considerably due to our ability to notify customers of new products and specials that we are offering in the store.
