Alpine IQ vs. TrueLoyal

I think Alpine IQ is an excellent platform, especially for the challenging cannabis industry. In my experience, they take the guesswork out of preparing compliant campaigns and give us access to our data in a way that makes it actionable and easy to digest.

We love that the Zinrelo program is one of the many reasons that our customers shop with us repeatedly. It helps to give us an edge, compared to nearby competitors, who might not offer such a program.

• Customizable email and text campaigns make it easy to brand our messaging.
• In my experience, audience segmenting is easy and very robust for precise targeting.
• In my opinion, analytics and reporting are easy to understand.

• Customer service is fantastic.
• They are always asking for feedback, so that they can understand what is working well for us, and what isn't working well.
• They are pro-active and frequently offer suggestions to us, for promotions that they think would be worthwhile, and help us to keep shoppers coming back.

• I wish there was an option to add a-la-carte features to their plans, because the difference in cost between starter plans and the next step up is too much for us to afford.
• More features available to the starter packages would be nice.

• Though perfectly functional, Zinrelo’s interface seems slightly dated and could use a visual update.
• Zinrelo should develop direct integrations with BigCommerce and NetSuite, so all Zinrelo account management can be handled within those platforms.
• Zinrelo should allow for custom reasons for the addition of points. Sometimes the the established reasons do not address the situation, and the flexibility to add custom reasons with reduce or eliminate the need to add notes to transactions.

The only other platform we tried before settling on Zinrelo was Yotpo. We never moved to a paid plan before switching to Zinrelo. Compared to Yotpo, Zinrelo was easier to on-board and more affordable. Though Yotpo’s interface was more engaging, there was nothing missing from Zinrelo that justified the the added expense of Yotpo.

Incentivized

• So far we have seen higher open and conversion rates than previous messaging platforms.
• The way it integrates with our POS makes it much easier on our team to use and to encourage customers to sign up for the loyalty program.

• Increased customer retention.
• Increased average order value.
