EZ Texting vs. Workvivo

It is great to reach people who have given you their phone numbers. You can connect with leads and customers, strengthening rapport and staying in touch with them. They work well with Facebook ads through the Zapier connection, allowing you to follow up with prospects. However, if a business cannot access its leads' phone numbers, the tool will not be of much use. I know of a senior care company that was in business for years but relied strongly on email marketing. They did not ask for their leads' phone numbers and, therefore, did not find EZ Texting useful. That is expected from a company that does not ask prospects for their phone numbers.

WorkVivo works really well for us as we have colleagues all across the country. These colleagues don't use pc's in their working day so it was proving more and more challenging to reach them. With the diversity of people now using social platforms, the adoption of WorkVivo by all members of our team was really easy!

• Easy to use web interface.
• The ability to set up our main business phone to receive texts is fantastic.
• There are an abundance of features we haven't even explored yet but look forward to doing so!
• The mobile app is great alternative when a desktop or laptop isn't available.

Incentivized

• Aligning activity to Company Culture and Activities.
• DIrectly engaging with employees in real time.
• The Workvivo app is very advanced and offers a great experience, as does the desktop version.
• The bi-lingual capabilities (English/Arabic) have been a great advantage, something we couldn't find in any of the other tools on the market.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Comment's visibility under a post: before, you saw all the comments, but now it displays only one, making you lose the others (you have to open the post to read them)
• Possibility to change your job title manually: from the app, it is not possible to change your job title (mine remained on stage)
• Like's visibility: before I saw them much better

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.

To my best friend Workvivo, I would like to give 10/10. Everything is running smoothly. I feel glad when people at my workplace from other departments and also from other shifts recognise me with my name. That gives me inner peace. I am feeling blissful. I am on the moon.

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.

Super user friendly, I've not once wondered how to access, find do anything. As soon as I log in I am confident I can find whatever I need and whatever I am looking for and I it is very easy to engage with coworkers and colleagues all over the world.

We have never needed to use the system and it be unavailable. They seem to schedule their server maintenance perfectly (at least for us!).

It works pretty well but sometimes things don't work the way you would assume, IE marking messages as read is not as intuitive

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!

Would like the features to be continued & hence supporting it.

The trainer was effectively delivering the training, but there were some points the trainer himself was not clear with. This impacted doubt clearing.

All the things were explained in an effective way. Easy to understand the tools, features, their use, implementation. Monitoring & support wherever required. Feedback was recorded & improvements were done wherever required to improve the coaching experience. Knowledge checks were taken to understand understanding levels. Overall experience was very well with the training.

allow plenty of time for integration - time is definitely a factor. We had to wait about a week before the product was completely usable. Customer support was very helpful. though. Very much worth the wait, I think. Allow plenty of time for integration. Lots and lots of time needed.

Everything is running smoothly. I love this application.

We have never considered or looked into any other system. We were very much just trying to fix a gap in our internal system as quickly and easily as possible. EZ Text was one of the first options that came up. We did a free trial, and it seemed easy (EZ) enough to use and fair in price, so we moved forward.

The interface is more simple and meant for the purpose of communication. Though the product misses on the aspect of one on one chat, the main purpose of communicating to group all together is handled well through the software. Employees are more engaging when they see achievement of their colleagues on it. For leaders it’s become one place to any something to private or public groups as per their needs

Incentivized

We haven't really utilized it for this purpose but it does seem like there are a lot of great options you can utilize.

• Customers, as well as potential customers, do not seem to have any issue, providing their phone numbers for text messages as opposed to receiving countless emails.
• Upselling items has improved considerably due to our ability to notify customers of new products and specials that we are offering in the store.

Incentivized

• I work remotely so maintaining interaction with your colleagues is more difficult. With Workvivo, I can stay tuned to what my colleagues are doing (in more fun, personal way) so I get to know them and break that distance barrier.
• Workvivo helps to share work-related information and it is also a way to connect to the community all around the world that shares the same values and interests. Workvivo is fun and easy to use which is very helpful to the user.
• It solves the problem of learning the organizational chart, which changes frequently. It helps me quickly find a co-worker's profile with contact info and helps me learn their interests, which I value as a remote employee.
