Best decision

Very happy with the account management team and their attention to my business.

PROS

The right size for my business at the right price.

CONS

Some of the manual feeds to our website for display purposes.

Reason for choosing Annex Cloud Loyalty Experience Platform

I didn't need a product with every bell and whistle. I needed something I could afford for the volume of users I have, but had room to expand as my business did.

Pros and cons

Overall experience has been a positive one.

PROS

This software is very easy to use for the most part. My customers are able to post their questions with ease and review posted answers clearly and easily as well. It has definitely filled a need on our website as we find more and more folks wish to interact online.

CONS

I did with that we were able to place hyperlinks into the answers for customers to just click on. This did seem a bit problematic.

A great partner and Loyalty expert

I have definitely had a positive experience with Annex Cloud overall. I led the discovery and vendor selection phases of the development process as well as the implementation and Annex was straightforward and accurate at each phase of the process.

PROS

Annex Cloud has been extremely flexible and responsive to our Loyalty Software needs. As we've implemented complex and customized programs globally, we have developed strong partnerships with our Annex Representatives and they have been amazing to work with. They have vastly exceeded expectations as we've shifted to meet changing needs during the Covid-19 pandemic and the success of our programs have reflected their hard work and professionalism. We went through an extensive vendor selection process and went with Annex because of their robust feature offering and strong underlying technology stack. We have not been disappointed. As a younger company there are some minor areas, mostly around country specific rules, that they are still working to close the gaps on but they have been very open to roadmap input and communicate well on when specific features will be available. I've loved working with Annex Cloud and would recommend evaluating them to any colleague in need of a Loyalty Partner.

CONS

We have identified several gaps that are necessary for our business that respond to specific regulations in the global markets. Our reps [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] have been very responsive and reasonable in balancing those requests with our other requirements and working with us to create delivery plans that work for both sides.

Reason for choosing Annex Cloud Loyalty Experience Platform

Annex had the best feature offering at competitive pricing for our industry and most closely matched out technology requirements with cloud based and flexible software.

We're Fans of Ratings & Reviews + Visual Commerce!

PROS

Annex Cloud offered us a much more robust way of educating users about our products though Ratings & Reviews. We had previously used Magento's default functionality and found it limiting. With Annex Cloud, we were able to add user submitted photos to our reviews and ask customers if they would recommend the product to someone else, which has been impactful with building social proof on our website and improving conversion. The consumer-friendly interface and seamless integration with our website template feels and looks cohesive and has helped generate more product reviews than ever before. Not only are we benefitting from user submitted photos in our product reviews, but also now through Visual Commerce, we've been able to integrate with Instagram for sourcing customer photos and displaying them on our website. We were previously challenged by having so much great UGC out there with no way of showcasing it on our site, which we've found to also be great for social proof and improving conversion. Additionally, it has helped us foster community with our most devoted fans and give them a chance to be featured on our website and other marketing channels.

CONS

In the beginning of our relationship there were integration related challenges that needed to be worked through, specifically for Visual Commerce to function properly. We had unique requirements for tagging UGC with items from our product catalog so that they would both appear in our gallery and on any relevant product display pages. It took some time to get it where we needed to be, but the Annex Cloud team remained committed and vigilant with their support. In the end they helped us get where we needed to be.

Elevate Your Marketing With Annex Cloud

PROS

Even if all things were equal from a feature and functionality standpoint between Annex Cloud and other loyalty companies (which they're not, but hypothetically speaking), I think what separates them from other providers is the service you receive from actual human beings. From a support perspective and a development perspective, they really go the extra mile to help you succeed and bring ideas to fruition.

CONS

The folks at Annex Cloud are reasonable and easy to work with. They go the extra mile to earn and keep your business. I know if/I call or email I'm going to speak with someone who knows and cares about our business, our program, and is in-tune with how to keep our customers engaged and coming back for more.

Great Support!

A+ on the ongoing support we have been receiving

PROS

The ongoing support we have received from the Annex Cloud team has been great. We are continually rolling out new regions and new features with the help from annex and their experience around best practices and strategy that have worked for their other clients.

CONS

We weren't able to implement using the cartridge which required a lot of customization on our side. I would imagine using the cartridge would make things much easier. There have been some limitations around functionality we have wanted, but the Annex team has been great in helping us get to where we want to be.

Annex Cloud turns users into loyal customers

All in a software that helps me give personalized rewards to my potential clients, we will soon incorporate memberships to make our loyalty program more complete.

PROS

increases the life span of customers thanks to its functions to gain loyalty, the best thing is that we can reward users for the actions they perform and at the same time help to win more customers (recommendation marketing) and more confidence with company

CONS

Cheers to Annex Cloud for helping us acheive our implementation timelines

Our goal using Annex Cloud was to drive customers to our e-commerce channel. It's still too early to determine the lift, however we had more e-commerce sign-ups during this timeframe then this same timeframe last year. I'll report back soon to share the ongoing lift.

PROS

The Annex Cloud implementation team supporting us was available and adjusted to our needs as best as they could. Their solution is "out-of-the-box", however they made accommodations along the way to support our connections and data requirements, especially around our SSO security requirements.

CONS

Annex Cloud dashboard is iFrame based, which is a pro and con. We had to provide our scheme to their development team to display on our site, therefore we loose immediate control change needs, however the Annex Cloud team is responsive and provides "in-the-box" changes quickly. In addition, Annex Cloud's iFrame was a positive for our situation by reducing internal development lead time.

Reason for choosing Annex Cloud Loyalty Experience Platform

Annex Cloud was the best choice for us to meet our implementation timeline and implementation cost. In addition, their customer support and implantation team was flexible with us as we realized our business requirements and process needs were dynamic as we got closer to our Go-Live date. They were very supportive and available throughout the implementation process and ensured their development team were "all hands on deck" right before launch and after launch to ensure a successful launch and user experience.

A Great Partner

Annex Cloud was has been a great partner. I haven't had any surprises and love that I have confidence in them.

PROS

We use Annex Cloud to administrate the points awarded from our loyalty reward program. We designed the program and the front end but Annex Cloud has supported the administration of our tiers and rewards. Annex Cloud has been nothing but professional, prompt and committed. They have completed all development on time and launches have gone well despite lots of change requests on timelines on our end. They always help when requested and seem to have a "client first" mentality.

CONS

I would like to see improved flexibility of points promotions and easier access to data dashboards.

Reason for choosing Annex Cloud Loyalty Experience Platform

Worked with others in our industry and had capability to support our referral program needs as well as loyalty program needs.

Leader in Loyalty

Our site with Annex Cloud and our Loyalty Program; the insights shared by the AC team ahead of launch along with the program itself, set our team and site up for success at the start.

PROS

From day-one the product preformed how we expected. Seamless integration and ease of use for our customers made Annex Cloud the best decision when launching our site.

CONS

Analytics has come along way since we launched; ease of reporting and data could have been better at the start but the AC team prioritized this and adjusted our dashboard.

Great business partner

We launched our first ever loyalty program that had requirements that were unique to our program versus how other retailers do loyalty, specifically points based tiers with different benefits for each tier. Annex Cloud was excited to take on the challenge and we launched the program exactly as we envisioned it and results have been fabulous. They are easy to work with, very customer responsive, and an excellent business partner.

Annex Cloud Review

Overall the implementation of a loyalty program has been successful and adds a more dynamic and interactive experience for our customers. This program has given us many future opportunities for promotions we can offer, and ways we can entice our customers purchase more frequently.

PROS

The thing I like most about this software is the support that comes with it. I think Keara is doing a great job of keeping us informed and following up on questions and requests, and she is very quick to respond.

CONS

We are still having inconsistencies and odd occurrences from time to time. Once we have the kinks worked out I think we can utilize and enjoy the software more. There are many unique scenarios that we are sorting through on both ends that detract from the overall experience of using the software. I am confident we will work through them.
