Get your questions answered in MINUTES! Best Customer Service EVER!

Aside from everything I've already said ViralSweeps has helped us grow our email list and social channels exponentially! It has allowed us to reward our customers and collaborate with other companies in a fun and easy way. Worth every penny.

PROS

I love how user-friendly ViralSweeps is. It's easy to navigate and integrate with applications we already use. My favorite part though is they answer my questions soooooo quick! That's actually what made me sign up when I first started using them a couple of years ago. I was comparing platforms and sent ViralSweep and a competitor an email asking questions about their platform and ViralSweep answered me back within minutes. I was able to go back and forth with them for about an hour and by the end, I didn't care to hear back from the other company. This incredible service continues. If I ask a question through "chat" within normal business hours I will have a response almost immediatly (sometimes even after hours!). They are incredible; better and cheaper than Gleam...

CONS

This is minor... but I wish when requesting to know someone's birthday for a sweepstakes entry you could just request month and year, not the date too.

Reason for choosing ViralSweep

ViralSweeps was sooooo quick to answer all of my questions/concerns. I was comparing platforms and sent ViralSweep and a competitor an email asking questions about their platform and ViralSweep answered me back within minutes. I was able to go back and forth with them for about an hour and by the end, I didn't care to hear back from the other company.

The featureset is so vast, we use Viralsweep for dozens of applications

It's simply the best for tracking and excluding fraudulent users who typically game promotional giveaways.

PROS

There isn't a software package out there that lets you quickly create collaborative campaigns as easily as viralsweep. We've been using this software for 2+ years and across 40+ projects. Support is the absolute best.

CONS

Depending on the campaign type, the overall user interface is a bit rigid, but it's optimized for that campaigns particular goal and it just works.

Reason for choosing ViralSweep

Flexibility, brand/promotional network, price & payment gateway via stripe features.

Reasons for switching to ViralSweep

Fraudulent entries are the biggest issue with promotional giveaways. It's not until you start engaging with your entrants via email that you realize, a good system to ensure your entrant's integrity is a must. Using viralsweep, you'll never have to worry about that problem.

Great product for launching quick sweeps, doesn't seem to work in all cases

PROS

I like how easy it is to have a WYSIWYG interface to create a sweepstakes. But this simplicity can also lead to some pitfalls with regard to sweepstakes regulation. It's "too easy" to create a sweepstakes, and that could lead to some employees making mistakes with regard to compliance.

CONS

The webhooks did not work for us. They are well-tested, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

When Growth is the Strategy

ViralSweep allows me the opportunity to help my clients grow their subscriber list substantially through different marketing channels. It also drives website traffic to specific pages and helps create engagement. Other benefits I receive from using ViralSweep include ease of use, variety, customizable, works great with WordPress and Facebook, and the service is impeccable -- I have received immediate responses from Giancarlo, who is always kind and willing to help.

PROS

The thing I like most about ViralSweep --- it generates excellent results. I have tried many others, including Wishpond and Woobox, and ViralSweep stands head and shoulders above those competitors.

CONS

I wish there were more flexibility in creating a custom landing page with graphics and other copy. I would also like if it created a white-labeled report with the ability to customize pages of the report and add graphics.

Reason for choosing ViralSweep

Easy of use, functionality, proven results with my very first sweepstakes --- grew my clients' new startup business subscriber list by 3,144%!

Reasons for switching to ViralSweep

ViralSweep is just powerful and easy to use for both the user and the entrant.
