Easy to use, top tier customer service!

PROS

The level of service our team gets from Kangaroo is out of this world. From setup to ongoing support, they've answered our questions with patience and ease. [sensitive content hidden] has been of the top examples of best customer service I've seen across all of our vendors.

CONS

Nothing yet! Some features were "wishlist" and they've already delivered on some and are looking into implementing others.

Reasons for switching to Kangaroo

Kangaroo offeres more advanced loyalty programs. SlickText only had SMS campaigns where Kangaroo offers Push & Email as well.

Best option for Lightspeed

PROS

The biggest advantage is that it is fully integrated with Lightspeed POS and E-comm. So, it helps us to create a seamless customer experience. The basic features, such as tracking customer purchase history in analytics and being able to send offers to all of the customers, works at least as well as other loyalty programs.

CONS

A lot of the additional features promised, such as being able to do targeted campaigns based on purchase history and promotions based on category, don't work as promised. The software doesn't capture the information necessary to do targeted campaigns. And, when you try to do a promotion based on a category, you can't select the category from Lightspeed. You have to tag all of the products, which is a lot of extra work.

Reasons for switching to Kangaroo

Five Stars is not integrated with our POS system or really any iPad based systems. And, it doesn't allow customers to earn and spend points on the website.

Vendor Response

PROS

There was nothing that stood out about this software

CONS

not user friendly. Did not work as promised. Did not get the customer service I needed

Vendor Response

Hello Brenda, Thank you for taking the time to review our loyalty solution. We are disappointed to hear that Kangaroo was not a good fit for your needs. Kangaroo's platform performs best in traditional retail, service, restaurant or wholesaler environments. While our platform can be used for non-traditional retail models, it requires a higher level of preparedness. We thank you for allowing our support team to work with you and we sincerely hope that you find the right solution for your business. Best Regards, Team Kangaroo

Exceptional Customer Support and Rewarding Loyalty Program

What impresses me the most is the speed and efficiency of their customer service. Issues are resolved quickly, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure customer needs are met. Kangaroo Rewards has set a new standard for loyalty programs and customer service, making it a valuable asset for businesses looking to elevate their customer engagement strategy.

PROS

My experience with Kangaroo Rewards has been outstanding, particularly due to their exceptional customer support and innovative rewards program system. From the very beginning, the support team, especially a representative named Nadim, provided prompt and helpful service that exceeded my expectations. Their commitment to customer satisfaction is truly remarkable, demonstrating a clear dedication to 100% customer retention.

CONS

The rewards program system itself is intuitive, user-friendly, and highly effective in fostering customer loyalty. It offers personalized incentives that enhance the overall customer experience, making it not just a tool for transactions but a platform for meaningful engagement. The ease of earning and redeeming rewards adds significant value, setting Kangaroo Rewards apart in the market.

A Rewards System that Grows with Your Business

Customer retention is very vital to several businesses. Many people hate how cell phone service companies always try to market to get new customers into contracts while neglecting their long time customers and not providing the best service/deals/etc. I see the majority of my sales from 80% as returning customers. So it's important to me to keep reminding them that I should be a destination for their shopping. The rewards does a great deal to keep bringing people back to me while I utilize social media to attract new customers.

PROS

I love how Kangaroo Rewards integrates with my Lightspeed POS system. It is very straightforward and easy to use. I can customize how my customers receive points/rewards/bonuses and more! It feature automatic campaigns that reach out to my at-risk customers that reminds them that I still should be part of their shopping experience/reminders. I like the support the company gives to the users. They are always willing to improve the rewards system and also willing to listen to make changes that I find not useful/difficult/confusing. We are part of the top 5 users of Kangaroo Rewards in the franchise that I am in and it's been a great experience so far!

CONS

My major complaint to the company was the layout on the administrator's website. I find it very difficult to navigate and find exactly what I need. Some of the self-service FAQ's have been down for a bit but they are finally back up. At a conference I attended, Kangaroo Rewards assured to me that there is an update coming and will be available soon that addresses all my concerns! So it's exciting to see that they are listening to user feedback.

Reasons for switching to Kangaroo

I was using the rewards from QuickBooks POS and they weren't really that customizable. They had a generic rewards where they granted some set dollars/points to customers when they hit a spending limit. It didn't make it fun or enjoyable for my customers or for me to promote loyalty to my brand when they can be buying elsewhere.

Vendor Response

Hello Andre, Thank you for the glowing review! It was a pleasure meeting you at the conference and we're thrilled that our software is helping to contribute to the success of your business! Thank you for your ongoing support and fidelity, we appreciate your business. Warm Regards, Team Kangaroo
