Attentive: AI‑led Email &SMS

March 13, 2026

We launched SMS with Attentive in June 2022 and have enjoyed growing our SMS offering as the platform has also developed and improved over the years. The CSM team are very supportive and have helped us optimise and grow our programme. Their support team, Whiteglove is also amazing, they reply promptly and with great technical understanding! Overall, a great platform to use!

The platform is intuitive and easy to navigate. We’ve received excellent support and performance has been great. Our account manager Maya has been particularly helpful- she provides great recommendations, is highly reliable, and is knowledgeable. Overall, it has been a very positive experience so far!

We migrated from Klaviyo for our emails in Aug 25 (been sending SMS since start of 2025) and we find the platform to be super intuitive and easy to use. Great to have both sms and email in the same place. We've had a couple of small issues in the past which were resolved by the attentive team with relative speed. It's great to have a managed service to provide recommendations on both campaign and journey strategies. Overall happy with the move.

We’ve had a really positive experience with Attentive. The platform is intuitive and easy to use, which makes building and managing SMS campaigns simple. It integrates well with the rest of our tech stack, allowing everything to run smoothly alongside our other marketing channels. The Attentive team has also been incredibly helpful – always responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive when it comes to support and optimisation.

Nearly 6 months into using Attentive and really happy with the service so far, it's not been without a few hiccups, but the team have been incredibly helpful and quick to rectify! Already seeing a huge improvement from our previous SMS provider, so very excited to see how we grow with them.

We migrated from Klaviyo to Attentive at the back end of 2025. The process has been seamless. Performance has increased massively using the full suite of Attentive SMS and email software. We're really happy with our account management, Sam actively optimises accounts and suggests improvements, even when we're too snowed under to give the channel the attention it deserves. Can't recommend Attentive enough.

We switched to Attentive in October last year and have really been enjoying the platform ever since. The team has been incredibly helpful in supporting us as we optimise our SMS programme and the analytics/ reporting tools are both excellent and very easy to use. The support from the White Glove team has been fantastic, especially through the live chat feature whenever we’ve needed assistance. Overall, it’s been a great experience so far.

We made the move to Attentive expecting an initial guided walkthrough and hands on support, but that hasn’t been my experience so far. I was billed for 21,000 messages that I did not send, and despite reaching out multiple times, I haven’t been given a clear explanation of where those messages came from. I keep getting transferred between teams and sent help articles that don’t actually answer my questions. I’m simply looking for clarity and direction. What was promised for billing has not aligned with what I’m seeing. I understand transitions can be confusing, but this has been more difficult than expected. Much of what I thought would be supported, including setting up flows and getting email and SMS working properly, has ended up being something I’ve had to figure out on my own. I’m still confused. If you have the time to research, troubleshoot, and figure things out independently, this may be a great app for you. However, if you’re like me and made the move based on the promise of hands on support, I would approach with caution.

Attentive’s platform itself is fine, but the contract structure and enforcement approach are extremely restrictive and disappointing. The agreement includes strict SMS exclusivity with long-term lock-in, limited flexibility, and significant financial penalties (more than reasonable costs) if you need to adapt your tech stack. Even more frustrating, the Attentive team has taken an overly aggressive interpretation of the contract—suggesting that even discussing or planning with other providers would be a breach, despite that not being clearly supported by the language. For a fast-growing e-commerce business, this makes it very difficult to evolve, evaluate alternatives, or integrate with tools Attentive doesn’t support. When integration gaps arise, the exclusivity still applies, leaving you stuck paying for services that no longer meet your needs. If you value flexibility, vendor interoperability, or the ability to plan ahead without pressure tactics, read the contract very carefully before signing.

We have used Attentive for many years and have been happy with every aspect. The features and UI are solid, they are always pushing on product development, and are proactive with compliance. I can't speak highly enough about their white glove support and dedicated CSMs. Chelsee is top tier and has felt like an extension of our internal team.

Using Attentive has been super easy and helpful for our marketing efforts. Creating and monitoring campaigns is user friendly and easy to stay organized. They offer various analytic reports to help monitor performances. AI Grow is also a useful addition to offer more sign-up units and grow our audience. The support team is super responsive and everyone I've interacted with has been very friendly and helpful.

Extremely happy with the performance of Attentive over the last several years. Constantly improving the U/I and different rollouts that fit client needs. Definitely a core function for our business!

We really love Attentive as our email and SMS solution! It's so user- friendly, easy to integrate with our other tools and all of the reporting and dashboards are easy to digest and analyze.

We have used Attentive for about 5 years now for our SMS program. They have been so great to work with, the software works great and is easy to use to setup messaging, campaigns and automations. They were so great, that we moved our email management over to them as well about 3 years ago. Having the all in one soltuon for email and SMS makes automations great to keep messaging consistent. Also, in the world of tricky SMS litigation they are great about staying on top of it and helping to keep you complaint. Highly recommend.

Attentive has been a strong partner for our SMS marketing for several years. The platform makes it easy to launch campaigns, manage automations and quickly create segments for strategic targeting. Their support team is super responsive and knowledgeable, which has been a huge plus whenever we need quick guidance. The reporting tools provide solid insights into performance, though there's some room for improvement in customization and deeper data visibility. Overall, Attentive has helped us grow our email & SMS lists, increase engagement, and drive measurable revenue.

We’ve been with Attentive for some years now, I’ve had experience with other SMS providers but no one has cared as much as Attentive has. It’s not only one team or one person that cares about helping you but their whole brand, they’re very responsive and always willing to help. The new tools they come out with are also quite useful and innovative and I’m excited to see how the brand grows with such dedicated people in the team.

Oct. 8, 2025

We’ve been using Attentive to manage both email and SMS, and it’s been seamless combining our email and mobile strategies. Their extensive library of “journey” templates has made automating much of our program simple, and they continue to roll out new features that make the platform even more powerful. Attentive has truly become a key partner in driving our retention and lifecycle marketing efforts.

(4.6 stars - still early days to the platform) We switched to Attentive about two months ago from Yotpo SMSBump and have really enjoyed the change. Yotpo had a lot of extra features that felt unnecessary for what we needed, while Attentive is simple, effective, and easy to use. The AI tools and smart recommendations are a great bonus and make campaign planning feel effortless. Our team has easy access to everything they need, and we have had no issues with the Shopify integration. We also appreciate the white glove support, which makes the entire experience smooth and reliable. Overall, it has been a good transition, and we are excited to see how the platform continues to grow.

Oct. 8, 2025

We’ve been with Attentive for several years now and it continues to be a great decision we’ve made for our business. The platform is incredibly easy to use, reliable, and syncs seamlessly with our Shopify store. Their customer service team is always responsive and helpful. Our SMS marketing continues to perform exceptionally well thanks to this great platform! Highly recommend.
