“I had been with Yext for about 5 years before switching and what a difference! First the customer support is tremendous at Birdeye, while it is non-existent at Yext. The onboarding process here is one of the best I have ever had with any SAAS. The platform itself is very user friendly, and loaded with valuable features. The extensive CRM integrations are also a huge plus. From listings and reputation management to social media integrations and lead generation tools, this platform has amazing ROI potential for businesses.”
I'd highly recommend this tool and this company. Great overall experience, can't say enough good things about this product and the team at Birdeye.
