### Most mentioned pros

- I use clicksend with mgr, my gadget repair software to update customers on their jobs, it's good value per text
- I mostly used it for SMS campaigns, and the platform made it simple to schedule and send messages without a lot of technical setup. Plus, Zapier integration is a great bonus!
- It makes official messaging easier especially when you are the type with very busy schedule, it reminds you always when it's time for that text.

### Most mentioned cons

- Still have a weird glitch in the send part of mass sms if I only have 1-3 mobile numbers they group as one number. But, it's minor compared to the benefits.
- The attribute I like the least is how the price goes down depending on your number of contacts, which is not helpful with a small business like mine.
- The free trial credits aren't enough for full experience of a new to product user

### The best software for SMS and other marketing needs out there

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Bhabishya B.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Entertainment
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2022
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

I was using ClickSend to send SMS to me and my customers every time a customer places an order on my WooCommerce store. And it helped me a lot to know about the orders faster and to inform the customers about their order faster.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like everything about ClickSend. They have lots of features and my favourite is SMS. It's the only feature for which I joined their platform, but after joining their platform I found lots of other services they provide. I'm yet to use their every service. But their SMS is the best and they have integration with Zapier which makes it even amazing.

#### Cons

What I like the least about this software is the pricing and payment method. Their pricing is higher compared to few platforms I have came across and their minimum top-up is $20 and it's fixed and top of that they only have card as payment option. And this is what I like the least about ClickSend.

#### Reasons for switching to ClickSend

It was easier to get started with Twilio and easier to use. And on top of that ClickSend had exactly what I needed.

### My 100% Honest Review on ClickSend!

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Brandon G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Entertainment
- Company size: Self-Employed
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

My overall experience with ClickSend has been very positive. I would say that it is a very good company that tailors a lot of products and features to its customers.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I like most about ClickSend is the functionality and the features and the companies willing to keep advancing their products. I like that the company tailors to many different types of businesses and how useful and user friendly the platform and functions are. This company helps me run my business on the daily and keep in constant contact with customers.

#### Cons

ClickSend to me seems a little too expensive as I’ve seen many other companies in the same business focused model that are relatively cheaper. This issue is primarily towards their SMS Service. Often, us customers of their product pay as we go, or do things in bulk sending, but that gets heavy if you’re large scale and then there are some issues for me I would say where SMS to customers isn’t always reliable.

### It's great when it works

- Overall rating: 2/5
- Reviewer: Daava M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Consumer Goods
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: August 2022
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

Overall, it works great - WHEN IT WORKS. It allows people to respond to messages. But we are disappointed right now because no one will return our request for help, or even send a list of things to look at. This stopped working during a critical time in communication with our staff, and left us scrambling for a different way to reach out to them. We've not been able to use this for 4 weeks (or so) now, and our funds are stuck there with no response.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

We found it easy to upload our teams' numbers and track how many text messages went out. Easy to track billing. After doing a trial with no set phone number, we decided to invest in one specific phone number. Most of our employees do not work at a computer, so it made broadcasting messages simple, quick and effective.

#### Cons

Recently, texts started failing. We can't figure out why. We have reached out to Customer Service twice to resolve the issue. While we aren't a big user on their platform, the fact is the failed text messages are costing us. We can't trouble shoot effectively this way. No one is reaching back out to us.

#### Vendor response

Hi Daava, I'm sorry to hear that you have concerns about message delivery in the ClickSend platform. While global messaging can be complex, our Support Team should be able to assist, and I am both surprised and concerned that they were not able to solve your problem. I'd love to hear more about the issue so that we can improve our service and product. Please feel free to email me directly, or you can get in touch with our Support Team 24/7 via Online Chat, or at support@clicksend.com.

#### Cons

Creating SMS templates is confusing. It would be nice to have the ability to create workflows in Zoho CRM using ClickSend. Adding the option to schedule the messages would be a big plus!

#### Reasons for choosing ClickSend

Cost and ease of use.

#### Cons

I personally didn't like their user interface as it felt too complex and cluttered, apart from that their pricing for email credits are also a tad bit higher than the industry standard.

#### Vendor response

Hi Ankit, Thank you for your review its very interesting to get your feedback. We are constantly developing the product and we have a really exciting roadmap so watch this space for developments! One of the things we are focussing on specifically is the user interface experience and making it very clean and super easy to use so I hope that as we roll that out your experience is improved. We're constantly reviewing pricing globally and working to get the best value for our customers. We'll have a look at email specifically.
