Emotive: SMS Marketing
Emotive, a Shopify App for SMS marketing, has received mixed reviews from users. Positive aspects highlighted include easy integration, personalized customer experience, and helpful customer support. Users appreciate the one-on-one assistance provided by Emotive's customer experience managers and the platform's effectiveness in engaging customers and boosting sales. Additionally, the platform is praised for its user-friendly interface and features that help businesses achieve high ROI from SMS campaigns. On the other hand, negative reviews mention issues with the pricing structure, complicated contracts, and difficulties in canceling subscriptions. Some users have expressed dissatisfaction with the billing practices, unreliable reporting, and lack of transparency in fees. Despite these challenges, Emotive is recommended for its hands-on approach to SMS marketing and its ability to drive customer engagement and revenue growth.
The app itself works OK but the pricing structure is very complicated. Plus READ THE CONTRACT CAREFULLY. Parts are misleading and you are committing for a year plus automatic yearly renewals whether you want to or not. It ended up a massive financial mistake as the fees did not justify the ROI. I will never use them again.
Working with Emotive was extremely negative and exhausting. Pricing elements such as carrier fees, taxes, minimum spend requirements is Confusing and poorly disclosed, Reporting is extremely unreliable. I strongly recommend merchants to stay away and seriously consider Better and Cheaper alternative solutions before making the same mistake. AVOID!
I have been trying to cancel my subscription with Emotive for months now and they keep charging me. They were originally responsive but now never respond to any of my emails. The only time they responsded when I requested to cancel was to try and upsell me on their other services. DO NOT sign with them.
The integration was super easy. The best part about the Emotive is the customer experience managers. They are invested in the growth of not only my SMS list but of my brand overall. The one-on-one help is invaluable for small businesses.
As a person new to using SMS marketing I wasn’t sure what to look for. Emotive knows what they are doing to help small businesses, they are a full service provider, organized, helpful with strategy and listen to my requests. I recommend this team.
