Great Platform, with very responsive support team

PROS

Textrequest has continued to evolve since we started using it. They are very invested in improving the service and adding more features to make the user experience better. They are also very responsive to user requests and feedback and consistently respond to suggestions and issues

CONS

I am waiting on an iPad version that works in landscape mode, as i regularly use my iPad with a keyboard for these types of uses.

Vendor Response

Jason, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a nice review. I have let the product team know about you wanting an iPad App that allows landscape.

Not a bad service

It is ok. Still getting use to it. There are a lot of great features the previous product we used did not have and vise versa. Still getting used to the new product.

PROS

You can filter the way you see texts. What has been completed and what has not been worked yet.

CONS

You have to send a text with an attachment. You cannot send an attachment by itself.

Reasons for switching to Text Request

Unsure. It was the owners decision. I believe the previous text program we used went out of business or something like that.

Vendor Response

Bianca, thank you for leaving us a review.

PROS

It is very easy to use, and there is no lag in the messaging process.

CONS

I think there should be an option to default the setting to Newest first and not Unresolved first. I also dislike that there is not an option to click on the phone number to call them.

Reason for choosing Text Request

It was recommended to us by Zipwhip. They said you could transfer our contacts and conversations.

Reasons for switching to Text Request

Zipwhip was being discontinued, so they recommended this.

Vendor Response

Andrea, thank you for leaving us a review.

A Great Service to start with!

We use Text Request in our day to day operations and it overall serves us well.

PROS

It is easy to set up, is well organized and allows you to stay organized even when sharing the service with a number of team members. (Clear differentiation between which users are/have responded).

CONS

Customer support is sometimes slow responding to requests for assistance.

Reasons for switching to Text Request

The previous service had more functionalities than we needed (we only needed text messaging and chat service) and was not organized well for use with multiple users and profiles.

Vendor Response

Glad to hear that you have met your needs since switching to us from Dial Pad.
