Wishpond Software

Pros

It was nice to have a program that could make our contests more interesting. And it was easy to use, once set up

Cons

Some of the features were not straightforward or easy to understand. And customer service seems to take forever

How not to do customer support.

Pros

Their blog is pretty good and informative.

And the idea of what Wishpond could do is nice. There's a lot of features, and it would be fantastic if it was a 'end-all, be-all' kind of software.

Cons

Oh my god everything! Features would frequently not work or are just buggy. Email campaigns would break, or the site would just decide to ignore your submission and make it disappear.

Customer support is incredibly miss. They would ignore questions and have given my clients the runaround. They would blame my clients for being confused, and then apologize that the feature didn't work 'for them even though it works for everyone else'.

Their help docs are a mess. Screen shots don't align with the product. Even live walkthroughs, things would be out of place.

Pros

Easy setup, with good customization options. Plus, great lead-capture download and/or CRM integration. Mobile friendly.

Cons

Not all social engagement/follow options easily integrated. Limited page-layout customization with more basic plan.

Pros

Wishpond is incredibly easy to use. The templates are beautiful and offer endless customization options. I'm not a techie and I figured it out quickly. I opted for the hybrid package where the team assists with the first campaign. They're really great and super responsive. I tried another platform before and it was a lot more expensive and not nearly as good. I'm launching my campaign this week so I will follow up with a review once that's done and be generating some leads.

Overall I highly recommend Wishpond if you're looking to grow your business through outbound marketing.

We were able to conduct a fair contest for a giveaway of our service we wanted to donate to a community non-profit. Additionally, we were able to raise a lot of awareness for our company because each non-profit was able to easily share and ask others to participate.

Pros

I like how easy it was to set up the voting platform and having the real-time visual of the contest as it was in progress. Voters were very active and it was easy for us to share on social media. I like that each contestant had the ability to share a link specifically to their page.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything that wasn't in line with exactly what we wanted to achieve. I have no cons.

I've been able to create great landing pages that have built a sturdy email list, and the contest tools have helped create amazing results for our social media management clients.

Pros

To start with...Everything. I started using Wishpond back when it was essentially just a landing page builder. Now, add in the contests & engagement tools, email marketing automation, and lead tracking tools - It's hard to beat.

Cons

Hard to shake a stick at the platform. I guess I feel that the pricing structure is possibly a bit too steep for smaller brands although not as bad as others. Some of the tools could prove to be a bit much to digest for some business owners.

I have not found any benefits of this software so far

Cons

The Wishpond team has been using the software on my behalf and I'm extremely dissatisfied with results so far. When I've contacted them to complain, days go by before I receive an answer. Also, things I was promised during the sales pitch didn't happen without my having to follow-up. I wish I had never signed up for the service since it is a huge waste of my advertising budget.

Pros

This software was really easy and fun to use. It was nice to have something to spice things up with.

Cons

Some of the features were not straightforward or easy to understand

We were able to get the campaign up and running in just a few hours rather than a few days and the ease of use from the UX side made it easy for our followers to sign up and participate.

Pros

We love how easy it is to implement a campaign and how it organizes the content and the data on the back end to make it easy to manage. We also love how easy it is for the user to take part in our contests now!

Cons

It gets a little pricy as you scale up and this software makes it so easy to sign up for the user that your usage will go up quickly.

MANY! Easy contests, landing pages, pop-ups and many other things! With an HTML code everything is possible to be posted anywhere. Love it!

Pros

I can create different things that help my website look better. What I like the most is that I can actually see stats when I'm running a contest!

Cons

Support can take it's time to respond... I don't like that we have the option to talk to someone "Available" in the window chat they have available on the website when that person actually answers after two hours or a day... I would definitely try to improve that area.

WishPond was a great way to interact with our customers in a fun way while gaining useful information

Pros

I really like the contests we were able to run through WishPond. It made our brand more interactive and gave us great insight into our customer base at the same time. Win-win!

Cons

WishPond was a bit limiting at times. We weren't able to do some of the things we were hoping with our contests but it is still a great software overall. Perhaps one day they'll make necessary improvements.

Pros

Easy to use and with the user-friendly interface. I was able to create 20 pop-ups in just a few minutes. E-mail automation is something that I was looking for the most. I have more than 30 e-mails and have been able to set up e-mail flow and create smart lead lists in just an hour. That was great!

Cons

Sometimes I have a problem with HTML e-mail format in Google Chrome, so I have to work in Firefox. This gives me a headache because I am a Chrome user.

Really easy to send emails with, beginner friendly and has helped me find leads. Easy to sort out lists and design emails.

Wishpond is a very handy marketing tool. It has helped me a lot during the business. It helped our products to get in more demand. Social promotion options like popups, click, scrolling, pop up msgs, forms help us gather e mail from our active viewers. We can easily share them on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, iGoogle, LinkedIn, and Ning. Wishpond brings all our product information to the visitors in such a way that makes them visible, accessible and convenient to purchase, no matter how they shop. The interface is very easy to use and ideal. Drag-and-drop feature makes it much easier no need to learn to code. Great software!

Pros

14-day free trial.
Friendly 24/7 Support.
Embed on our Website.
Multi-user support.
Drag & Drop.
Real-time Stats.

Cons

Editor for pages is not so sound.
Customer support is not upto the mark.
They still have lots of bugs which are yet to be improved.
Needs time in learning and getting handy in it.

I decided not to use Wishpond because it has a terrible page editor, is full of bugs and does not allow embedding of videos. If you use a Macbook Pro Retina 13", forget about it. There is a bug that makes the editor jump around, which will drive you crazy. Two weeks after I reported the bug it's still not fixed.

Pros

All in one solution, similar to Hubspot

Cons

A bad editor for pages, bad customer support and lots of bugs.

My client wanted a landing page for his website.
I downloaded a different plug in but couldn't figure it out. This one gave me more individualization and, with support, I could create my own.

Pros

Lots of customer support even for my baseline questions. Liked the videos.

Cons

Because I am so basic there are still items I don't understand. I believe these could be cleared up in a phone call. I would like to see that option.

I found out about Wishpond through the Youtube channel, where they share tips and educate their clients on how to use the platform and what they can achieve with it. Currently, at Lion Development we are using Wishpond plugging to run our Landing pages, as well as creating landing pages for other clients. It has made the work much easier and gives us the tools we needed to perfectly engage our clients. Any question we had regarding the platform was answered within minutes. Part of my job as a Digital Marketing Consultant is to provide and suggest tools for my clients to use, I will be suggesting wishpond to a lot of my clients!

Pros

The platform has a lot of different tools that you can use.They have a pluggin for wordpress that is completely FREE, of course if you need to run certain features like an A/B test then you will have a fee to pay.

It also shows you the analytics for the page you have created. After creating a Landing page we ran it on Google Analytics and the results were excellent 80/100 page speed and 100/100 on user experience.

Cons

It has a lot of tools and ways in which they can be used, so users might get overwhelm, but all the youtube videos based on customer education of the product will help the user understand each step and each tool.

Perfect for any start up Boot Strapping their business. Plus a lot of cool features and great customer service! I will be upgrading my account soon.

Well, I was just looking for a landing page builder and found a ocean of well crafted tools,
rich academy with well designed video lesson, a very patient on line service (guy named Fabrizio)
and it's all for FREE !!!
I'm going to tell everyone about it.

I have been using Wishpond lightly for a month now and I can say the service has been great. I am not a paid subscriber yet and I haven't been treated as if I wasn't paid client either. I love all the tutorials where I can learn at my own pace. I'm still getting used this method of marketing, Wishpond has made it less intimidating.

Pros

I really appreciated the one on one appointment I had with Kevin. It was made when I was available to give my full attention and now I am excited to try other Wishpond products.

Cons

I don't have any cons, my experience has been consistently great!
