Likelihood to Recommend For any company that needs an immediate tool to address Abandonment email campaign needs that are not addressed in their current ESP, Barilliance is the tool for them. Any company seeking a robust, fully data-driven solution that provides personalization or dynamic experiences should look elsewhere. Many ESP's provide their own solutions, but if yours does not, Barilliance is a perfect fit.

If you are not interested in email marketing or you can take care of that in-house, then there may be better choices to handle your reviews. It is rare today to find a company as responsive and easy to work with as TargetBay.
Read full review Pros Barilliance displayed some of the best customer support I've had the pleasure of receiving. Their responses were timely and informative. Barilliance provided us with a month to month contract which allowed us to make the right business decisions at the right time. Their price point was also extremely competitive. While not the most robust solution, Barilliance hit all of the necessary functionality and activity to help us address our need for abandonment campaigns. Read full review TargetBay has amazing chat support. TargetBay has a great onboarding process. TargetBay is very affordable compared to other programs that offer similar solutions. Read full review Cons Barilliance has limited optimization potential. They do the basics of abandonment very well but do not have program growth tools in place. Barilliance has a limited amount of data integrations available. For data-driven companies, some in-house solutions may need to be developed for full customer behavioral data. The Barilliance Portal, while not being poorly designed, takes some getting used to, in addition to providing very little static support. This is addressed by their excellent customer service but can slow the self-help opportunities. Read full review There is always room for improvement, however, I find Target Bay to be cost effective. Read full review Usability TargetBay, while it is a great tool and more than pays for itself, is not the most user-friendly and/or easy to use. Even our very tech-savvy employees have struggled through figuring out some of the work flows. While TargetBay's technical support team on chat is amazing, they are not always available and documentation on "how-to" user and or do XYZ on their platform needs improvement.
Read full review Support Rating If I could rate their chat support separately than their phone support, I would rate their chat support at an 8 or 9. Their chat support team, when online, can usually answer most any questions quickly and clearly. If they can't find the answer right away, they always follow up with an email providing you the help/assistance you need. However, their phone support is another story. I would rate the phone support a 4. Most of the times, while not all of the time, that we've had to talk with someone on the phone, we typically are left with more questions and/or not the answer we were looking for. I think this may be partially due to the language barrier, but either way it has pushed us to want to only use that chat option for support which, unfortunately, is more time-consuming.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Barilliance filled a campaign gap that IBM Watson could not deliver effectively or cost-effectively. We recently moved ESP's and are now provided with a holistic email solution through
Bronto . We are ecstatic to be working with
Bronto , but I have very few negative things to say about our time with Barilliance.
Read full review We have used other customer review services in the past. I did not have the level of involvement with them like I do with Danielle and TargetBay. Email marketing is a major plus. And the PPC ads have been cost-effective. I am pleased with TargetBay and the results we have been getting since working with them.
Read full review Return on Investment Barilliance was able to produce an effective ROI for our company. Their month to month plan allowed us to be agile as we grew. Read full review We have seen a positive ROI with TargetBay. Once we get through Covid-19, it will be even better. I know we are communicating with our customers on a regular basis, keeping Sign Art Etc in their minds as in-person events start happening again. Emails we send are professional and creative. Much better than I would do. PPC with TargetBay is better than what we see with Google Ads. Read full review ScreenShots
