### "Great for driving reviews!"

October 25, 2022

4.0

Overall very good. They are responsive to problems when I have one and (try to) work with my business software management program on integration glitches.

Pros

The ease it provides the customer to leave us a good review - and the way it "redirects" an occasional negative experience so that we can address it.

Cons

The delivery of the website "chat bot" messages, the website "Contact Us" form or email via the website, and "text messages" that come from I dont know where - all coming in via the Broadly app.

### "Broadly Review Services"

October 25, 2022

5.0

Our experience with Broadly has been very well. We've obtained so many reviews to our business' that are positive. We're been able to have more direct communication with our clients via text.

Pros

I like that this software can automatically send out the review requests and catch negative experiences, so they can be handled behind the scenes. I like most that we can use the software to text with out clients, and have multiple ways of communicating. I like that we can get google leads with the broadly app, so people can message us directly and help gain business.

Cons

We chose to turn the live chat off of our website, for it slowed down our website speed. Also, when clients send pictures back to us in the text message they turn out very very blurry I wish they would come back clear. I wish we were able to hold templates in the app to just add onto chats, for we will use the service to remind clients about appointments, or hearings, etc. It would be easier to be able to save templates.

### "They will not cancel my account"

May 17, 2025

1.0

Horrible experience. I ask them to call me - no call- finally after I have tried cancelling for the 10th time they call me.. I tell her PLEASE Cancel my account then they tried taking money out again today.

Pros

They would never call me back about my account just kept trying to take money on my credit card.

Cons

I finally cancelled for them to CONTINUE trying to charge my card again as of today.

### "The best thing you could ever do for your business"

October 31, 2022

5.0

Pros

The Broadly software makes customer experience management and review generation surprisingly easy. I challenge every new employee on their first day at my company to try and leave us a review and more than 80% of my employees simply can't do it without help. Broadly has made leaving a review incredibly easy while also creating a 1 stop shop for managing all of our interactive social media platforms.

Cons

Using the software for multiple entities can be a bit frustrating at first, but Broadly has improved their app leaps and bounds already, and I know there is even more ease of use to come!

### "Great Product and Service"

November 1, 2022

5.0

Pros

We have been using Broadly and we love the way we get our office reviews. It is simple, clear and is well set up. Our patients get the requests and a few reminders (the perfect amount not to few and not to many) and we gain insight into how we are doing. I also love the fact that we can get reviews on several platforms.

Cons

What we like least is the fact that it is only for reviews. It is not a reminder system for the patients that they have upcoming appointments. It also would be nice if it would integrate to Eaglesoft and let the patient schedule their appointments on our open spaces.

### "Great product to help you get noticed locally!"

November 3, 2022

5.0

Great platform to help increase reviews and answer reviews on multiple platforms.

Pros

Easy to use and most of your social platforms are all in one place so you don’t have to give an internal employees/marketing company access to multiple platforms.

Cons

Yelp is pointless IMO to have in the platform because you can’t ask customers for reviews. Yelp will eventually take down all reviews that have come from Broadly because it goes against their rules.

### "Broadly has removed "Dealing with Bad Reviews" from my Task List"

October 25, 2022

5.0

In the pet industry, reputation management is crucial. Getting the wagging tails on record is important, and with Broadly--it's easy!

Pros

Broadly easily integrated with our other platforms, allowing for a seamless request of reviews from ALL customers. The happy customers far outweigh the sad, so now our reviews have a more accurate representation of our customer experience.

Cons

We weren't sure if it was going to work well at the beginning!

### "Best Tool for Reputation and Review Management "

March 19, 2023

5.0

Love it. I recommend it all the time for companies that need score improvements.

Pros

I love that it gives the opportunity to ask the customer how was their experience and based on their answers if it is favorable it will request a Google review. It has been a huge difference maker for our Google scores

Cons

….I don’t have any dislikes ……,,,,I don’t use all the features but will look into more

### "Easy google-based platform to request, and respond to reviews"

March 31, 2023

5.0

Great. It has really helped us engage with our customers and improve our online reputation.

Pros

So easy that new team members don't need significant training to jump right on board and begin using and providing value.

Cons

The only issue I have is not even with Broadly itself, the structure of our business makes automated review requests difficult because we often times don't collect on invoices for months after the job is complete (We work in an industry where insurance pays the bill).

March 17, 2023

Anytime we have had to contact Broadly support we have had only good experience.

Pros

Allowing clients to contact us outside of business hours, sending photos, and asking for reviews are features we use 24/7/365.

Cons

I wish the auto reply message could be customized with our info.

Reason for choosing Broadly

### "No business should be without Broadly"

November 7, 2022

5.0

Broadly allows you to capture tons of reviews without having to add any manpower.

Pros

Broadly makes capturing reviews a simple and painless process. It is just the right customer contact without being overburdensome. As a business, being notified immediately of a negative review could be imperative to salvaging a client relationship and Broadly enables us to do that. The dashboard is easy to navigate and the reviews are captured by the system in the background without us (the user) having to do anything extra.

Cons

I cannot think of anything about the software functionality that I would change.

It has helped us grow our presence and acquire new customers at a rate we never knew possible.

Pros

Broadly has been a vital part of our marketing mix and has garnished us feedback that others can use in their search for a provider.

Cons

I wish I had more time to utilize all of the features.

Reason for choosing Broadly

The rep that gave our seminar, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] conveyed the proper message and helped us understand its impact.

### "Increase your online visibility!! "

October 25, 2022

The main benefits for our company have been increased five star reviews and being able to chat with potential new customers!

Pros

Broadly offers an opportunity for you to seamlessly chat with new or existing customers. Additionally, the number of reviews and five star reviews have tripled thanks to the use of Broadly.

Cons

Getting my staff to use Broadly has been difficult. It would be nice to have the Broadly team assign an administrator to work with other mangers to instill confidence in their usage.

Has really helped us get more reviews.

Pros

Texting in real time with clients is really helpful and being able to easily send a request for a review when they agree to do a review helps to actually get the reviews.

Cons

It's kind of pricey. More that double the text only product I used in the past.

### "Avoid Broadly"

September 21, 2020

5.0

I widely promoted this software with peers and consulting clients in the service industry until this experience, which is so frustrating. I'm leaving the service disappointed with their support of clients during the Covid crisis, I was hoping to continue using it now that business is resuming and it's so disappointing to find businesses not do their part in supporting the small business community trying to stay afloat during this challenging time. It's ironic that a company based on soliciting quality reviews is so bad at customer service.

Pros

Overall Broadly was easy to use for my staff and a friendly interface for our clients to use.

Cons

I just had a 2 week battle with Broadly over their billing during the COVID crisis. I terminated services by phone in March of 2020 when everything took a plunge and re-started services this month. When I re-started services, they back dated my payment for the months of April-August when I had suspended services and wasn't using them. They charged me $2000 for months I didn't use the service and refused to issue a refund. There was no usage history during the months in question, so I wasn't attempting to run a scam or anything of the sort, I just wanted to reduce operating costs when business was non-existent. I told them if they refused to refund me for the months that I didn't use their service I would be disputing the charge with Visa and terminating service. They offered me a $500 refund instead of apply the payment for months I was changed when I didn't use the service to future months to keep me as a client. I just canceled my subscription with the service as it's not included with my software fees.

### "Easy Review Building "

November 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

I use Broadly primarily to prompt clients to complete reviews and for the texting feature. It integrates easily with our CRM program so customers are automatically asked if they would recommend our business and if so to write a review. Our rating has increased dramatically, as well as our team's morale. If you don't want to send a request to an individual, there is an option to opt out as well. The texting feature allows us to text customers for easy convenience.

Cons

It is confusing how it's determined what sites the reviews are posted to.

I love you guys and what you have done to help us grow our reviews

Pros

I like using Broadly for our reputation managment , it keeps us in the loop and keeps us in front of our clients tell we get the review, It has also helped us to be more on top of our unhappy campers to resovle issues before they get out of hand... I would tell you that with Brodly we have doubeled or even trippeled our reviews...

### "Not practical for all law practices "

November 1, 2022

4.0

costs too much for the limited features we use it for.

Pros

Our law firm does not have access to all of the broadly features, yet we pay the same price. It would be better if we could send out mass emails from different lists each time and if we could delay text messages (to be sent to our clients at an appropriate time based on their time zone).

Cons

Poor customer service. We would request help and not hear back for a long time (or until we followed up). We were not able to use the payment function. The bulk emails were not useful to us either, because you could only use your current contacts and not change the people who are to receive the emails base don different lists.
