All Broadly Reviews

1-25 of 336 Reviews

Sort by

Reviews are by default sorted by Recommended to software buyers, driven by our proprietary algorithm reflecting the depth and quality of the review, recency of experience, and other factors. As a neutral reviews platform, the star rating of the review is not considered in the "Recommended" ranking, and there is currently no voting mechanism that would allow site visitors to influence the ranking.

Simple Web Chat And Review Platform

You cannot build advanced conversation bots using their web chat, it's just a simple response and then manual follow up.

Product Changed

We will be switching to a platform that has access to more review options. More user friendly for the customer.

PROS

Hoenstly, I have most enjoyed our rep, [sensitive content hidden].

CONS

The product I was sold is no longer the product that is being used. It now only focuses on google. When we joined Broadly the reviews were supposed to toggle to whatever platform the customer used most often.Also, it's not possible to delete past employees from reports.

We have only had broadly for a month or so but so far we love it and cannot wait to see how it progresses our business.

PROS

We love that all of our communications between Facebook and Instagram are centralized.

CONS

The marketing campaigns are lacking and just because you respond on the broadly does not clear the notifications on the other platforms.

Reason for choosing Broadly

Mainly for the review services and that it integrates with gingr.

Good service for less than the other Big Box Brands

Cost effective and performs just as good as the other more expensive review services we used to use 4 years ago.

PROS

Notifies us immediately upon a review posting on social media platforms or google. We are able to respond effectively and mitigate any damage to our reputation or publicly thank our customers.

CONS

The customers have the option to ONLY give us a thumbs up. Professionally speaking, customers breeze by this when looking for a contractor, and only read full reviews of our services.

Reason for choosing Broadly

Less expensive, wanted the same service

Avoid Broadly

I widely promoted this software with peers and consulting clients in the service industry until this experience, which is so frustrating. I'm leaving the service disappointed with their support of clients during the Covid crisis, I was hoping to continue using it now that business is resuming and it's so disappointing to find businesses not do their part in supporting the small business community trying to stay afloat during this challenging time. It's ironic that a company based on soliciting quality reviews is so bad at customer service.

PROS

Overall Broadly was easy to use for my staff and a friendly interface for our clients to use.

CONS

I just had a 2 week battle with Broadly over their billing during the COVID crisis. I terminated services by phone in March of 2020 when everything took a plunge and re-started services this month. When I re-started services, they back dated my payment for the months of April-August when I had suspended services and wasn't using them. They charged me $2000 for months I didn't use the service and refused to issue a refund. There was no usage history during the months in question, so I wasn't attempting to run a scam or anything of the sort, I just wanted to reduce operating costs when business was non-existent. I told them if they refused to refund me for the months that I didn't use their service I would be disputing the charge with Visa and terminating service. They offered me a $500 refund instead of apply the payment for months I was changed when I didn't use the service to future months to keep me as a client. I just canceled my subscription with the service as it's not included with my software fees.

Great for driving reviews!

Overall very good. They are responsive to problems when I have one and (try to) work with my business software management program on integration glitches.

PROS

The ease it provides the customer to leave us a good review - and the way it "redirects" an occasional negative experience so that we can address it.

CONS

The delivery of the website "chat bot" messages, the website "Contact Us" form or email via the website, and "text messages" that come from I dont know where - all coming in via the Broadly app.

Easy Review Building

PROS

I use Broadly primarily to prompt clients to complete reviews and for the texting feature. It integrates easily with our CRM program so customers are automatically asked if they would recommend our business and if so to write a review. Our rating has increased dramatically, as well as our team's morale. If you don't want to send a request to an individual, there is an option to opt out as well. The texting feature allows us to text customers for easy convenience.

CONS

It is confusing how it's determined what sites the reviews are posted to.

Amazing Experience with Broadly

Overall, it's been fantastic. It's a service I gladly pay for and would never stop using.

PROS

Broadly has honestly been a game changer for our business. We have so many positive reviews that people can easily read because of Broadly. The way it seamlessly integrated with our software with critical, and also the fact that we can use it to message with our customers is just an added bonus that at first I didn't even realize would be so useful.

CONS

I really can't think of any. I guess if I had to say, the fact that I can't "pause" it in our winter months when we aren't operating, but really that's not a concern.

Amazing Results

Very good. We love it

PROS

We struggled for years to get online reviews from our happy customers. Once we started using Broadly it has been nothing short of amazing! We now have lots of online reviews. It is so encouraging to read the customer comments and hear how pleased they have been with our work. Our employees love reading the reviews as well - they love hearing the complements after they've worked so hard to provide a great service to them.

CONS

At first, I had some difficulty finding my way around the dashboard site, how to respond to reviews. But after some trial and error and time it became easy.

Reason for choosing Broadly

The recommendation of others.

Big positive impact on our reviews

This has led to increased customer confidence due to a large pool of reviews.

PROS

Review requests are quite effective. I went from having one or two reviews post per month to several reviews every week. It has changed how our business looks online.

CONS

I feel like the price is high because it automatically includes many services. However, I only use review requests, and in rare cases, payment processing. If review requests were available a la carte for less money, I would have selected that. With that said, the value is good, even with my limited use of the product.

Extremely thankful for Broadly. Super easy to generate online reviews. Their staff is world-class!!!

Strong online presence, brand new website, customer engagement, search engine optimization, loyal customers, etc.

PROS

As a fellow, local business here in Oakland, I'm extremely thankful for the Broadly service! The Broadly company really understands the struggles small business owners go through online, and they offer several solutions to help us non-tech savvy people out. Broadly re-designed my entire website in a couple days and they've helped me generate over 90 total reviews across Google, Yelp and Facebook, whereas I had nothing before. Their Sales & Customer Success team have been absolutely wonderful.... They're very approachable and are always willing to help me anytime I have any questions. Can't say enough great things about the company! If you're a small business owner and need to boost your online presence, give them a call.

Thank you Andy. We're really happy that you've found the Broadly reviews platform useful, and that your new Broadly website is working out well.

Broadly has proven to be a good partner with us for obtaining a higher volume of online customer reviews.

PROS

The software is easy to use and gives us a way to quickly respond to feedback, whether it is positive or negative. It has allowed us to collect more reviews.

CONS

As a multi-location user, one improvement we could benefit by is to have the feedback emails identified by location, as well as the service writer or sales person who helped the customer. This would save us time in being able to respond more quickly.
