Brand Embassy (discontinued) vs. Emplifi

Though the strengths I listed in the prior question are really hopeful, the negatives outweigh the positives so much that at this time I could not in good conscience recommend this product. I really hope those issues improve - if they do, this would be a really strong tool for a customer service-based company like ours. Particularly one with so many people working remotely. For now, I'm honestly thankful I was able to take a different position here in which I never plan to touch NICE again.

- Very well suited to grabbing top-level and more in-depth social performance data, across campaigns and BAU activity. - Not as well suited for moments where you need benchmarking or context of your performance compared with a previous time frame. This can be a bit clunky to go back and forth with as it requires multiple dashboards or consistent manual time-frame changes.

• All information about customers in one place.
• Very transparent and easy to use. It helps us to track our results in a very efficient way, as well as to handle our day to day activities in the best way.
• Amazing client services team.

• Publishing - takes a bit of time, but publishing all content together makes planning and execution much more efective
• Community - really simple one board collecting of all our social messages makes replying simple
• dashboards - widgets and customisation allow for multiple dashboards tracking various campaigns and goals

• Option to rank the comments as positive/neutral/negative could be more uselful
• Some tool to archive selected posts for future references would be useful
• That's probably due to lack of technical skills :-], but we were not able to differentiate between fans and real customers in the app

• Would love more robust search parameters for labels. ex. search for tickets labeled 'Availability' AND 'United States' but excluding any that are only one of those labels
• Ability to break conversations into multiple tickets; so labels can be more accurate if the same person reaches out again after 3 months with a totally different question
• The social account quick view doesn't always load the follower count for people reaching out to us. it makes it slower to manager messages from high level creators

I still use the platform: - its use is customer friendly - improves and speed up customer care on SM - improves speed and quality of internal processes/communication - monitor/measure all valuable metrics

the balance between quality and price si perfectperfect for agency that have many client to manage, because it helps us to save time (we don't have to plan content from every single account, only one click to look at different community and moderate...)it also help the team works: senior can review content direcly from emplifi; labeling DM/comments as done help us to track where a collegue stop and we have to startIt makes the content approval from clients very easy

Since the main use of the Live Advisor is on the website that doesn't have e-commerce capabilities, it has been challenging to attach an specific metric to Emplifi's solutions and their usability in our websites. The Live Advisor is helping us to deliver our unique sale proposition in digital channels, which is great, but it is difficult to assign a higher mark in usability due to the limitation just explained.

It is difficult to describe just how awesome the support guys and gals at Brand Embassy are. Ever-present and eager to help, with kind and helpful attitude and you can really feel they are doing this to help you make results

Every time I've reached out to our account manager or even support in general, they've been there. I love the fact that I can always ask for help. Also, the chat function within the tool is helpful as well. It is something I always look for in a solution because when you're in the middle of working, and there is an issue, you can quickly reach out and get an answer.

The online training was fine but, in the end, the best way to learn any product is by actually using it.

The platform is so easy to understand that no "expensive consulting firm" is necessary to implement it!

Better organized, with more identifiable and easily accessible data, not to mention, these two offer the bare bones of functionality. Sure you can see raw data but you cannot actually do anything with them as a whole - you need to do all the comparison and analysis yourself which can take a long time

Its so much better and more stable and easier to work with their team If you're on Agora you should switch, you wont regret it and you'll probably get a better price. I used to deal with Agora breaking in some odd way every week, and Emplifi Service Cloud hasn't broken in any way in the almost a year we've used it.

• The first year when we started to focus on social care, we received 736 mentions. 4 years later we are dealing with 725, 942 mentions per year without the necessity to hire more people into our social care team. The seven of them are still able to respond to our customers very quickly and with high quality. And we believe that Brand Embassy is the key to our success in social care. Thanks to this tool we can simply manage such a big amount of mentions and questions.

• Volaris was able to improve their positive sentiment by 7% in their user-generated content (UGC).
• The optimization of content management workflows led to them becoming the second-most-popular airline brand in Mexico and the USA in 2022 according to Emplifi.
• By tracking our content performance with Emplifi, we were able to improve our creatives and increase the total shares by 15% vs. previous the year.
