Chose BombBomb
The office has been using BombBomb for a long time and has a lot of templates built. It would take a significant amount of time to convert over for our mass emailing purposes. On an individual level, we enjoy the video messaging option as that is not offered in all mass …
Chose BombBomb
I believe my customer service director looked into a couple of other companies before deciding on BombBomb and I know the Outlook integration was a big deal. I think they really liked how easy the program is to use too.
Chose BombBomb
I primarily compared BombBomb vs these platforms. I ultimately decided to go with a very stripped down version of YesWare as it's tracking provided a few aspects BombBomb did not, but BombBomb's platform was the best versus the other main providers. I think it cost a little bit …
Chose BombBomb
BombBomb is unique. They have perfected the art of video email and saved me hours upon hours of trying to use a similar technique to send the appearance of a video email. Before BombBomb, the process was so technical I did not even try to show other real estate agents. The …
Chose BombBomb
I think a lot of these are similar in many ways. BombBomb stood out because of the moving GIF feature among other things, but the overall idea of using video to cut through the clutter is where the value prop has been for our business so far. Other options have better video …
Chose BombBomb
Our primary focus was finding an email service that would enhance our engagement and allow us to successfully execute our campaign.
Chose BombBomb
I have not used any other products like BombBomb. I have used video recording and tried to add it to email and send it out. It is much easier to just use BombBomb. They have done all the hard work. All I have to do is record, talk, and send.
vidIQ
Chose vidIQ

Cons
  • We've found it's better with existing relationships than as an outbound campaign.
  • Deliverability - We serve markets that might be a little more strict with regards to deliverability.
  • Chrome extension - it was awful and took up so much of the inbox that we've uninstalled it completely.

  • Sometimes it stuck while using it and there should be more adjustments and custom reports when it comes to reporting the results
  • Chrome extension is not somehow working properly. happened to me twice and then it was resolved. Annoying when you have to wait

Usability
As said before, the usability is very straightforward and the customization options are good enough to get the job done. There is a mobile app to help with real-time engagement so that is useful too.

Performance
Overall it's very easy to use and the video emails stand out. Everything loads quickly and they make it easy to set up. It features CRM-like functionality to view opens, clicks, time watched, etc., but it doesn't port that info over to your existing CRM which is where some of the friction occurs. Still, it's amazing for what it does. I recommend giving it a try for our outreach.

Support Rating
A few times over the years I have asked for features to be added to BombBomb and I am amazed at how fast they can implement. Zapier integration is a perfect example. They implemented the connection to Zapier within 30 days of my feature request. It took a much larger company, Keller Williams Realty over 10 years to implement the same request.

Return on Investment
  • Overall, I think BombBomb has given us a positive ROI on our email marketing efforts. I don't have numbers to support that claim, but it's more affordable and better positioned for what we needed to do than many other tools out in the marketplace. If you need to differentiate your email, the video component is a great way to go.
