IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY. Springbot is the worst company I have had the displeasure of dealing with in a very long time. On every level this company was inept. It took them months to onboard us because the sales rep had zero understanding of their tech and her ego was too big to connect me to their product department. When she finally did, the problem was solved in less than 5 mins. 6 weeks of her not listening to me and that's all it took. After which, it's been nearly 2 months and they still haven't imported our existing list of contacts...
The biggest failure of this company is its email designers. In 3 months we were not able to get out a single email through their service either because of account problems like not importing our contacts or because they don't follow any instructions. Our first email we sent a detailed description of what needed to be included. They didn't follow a single line. They designed an email that was beautiful but had all the wrong links, none of the copy we wrote, and followed zero of our brand strategy. FAIL. The one next one they couldn't get ready on time. The third and final, was a newsletter and they literally copied the text into a blank white email and put my logo on it and called it finished. It didn't have any of our brand's colors. Instead, it had non-branded colors, broken images and guess what... they still hadn't imported our contacts so even if it was correct design it wouldn't have mattered. Three months of paying for this service and I sent 5 emails through Mailchimp instead.
They still have refused to refund us for services they never rendered. It's a scam. They mean well, or do they? They sell you on customer service. What they mean is aggressive sales tactics and no follow-through. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY.

Likelihood to Recommend
I wouldn't use this company at all. There are soo many competitors at less expensive prices who deliver. Springbot doesn't have SMS and their dashboard is far less complex than they sell. They didn't really give any segmentation advice. It was all talk and no follow-through.
