    Bird (formerly MessageBird)
    MessageBird seems to me a very useful tool for the times we are living [in] and the paradigm shift in corporate communications in all industries. It is very good at exchanging information and plain text. It works with some difficulty for sending images and other functionalities that the real WhatsApp application has, but the client on the other side does not know about this and sometimes sends information such as location that it is not possible to obtain.

    It is a great tool for everyone who has a lot of contacts to manage and is not good at keeping contacts. It has the capacity to hold a massive number of contacts and it arranges them so one can effortlessly find any of their contacts without wasting time.

    Alternatives Considered
    Bird (formerly MessageBird)
    Regarding WhatsApp Business, it is a very useful tool because templates can be programmed for the entire organization and clients can also be referred to other users in order to decongest an agent who can become quite busy. Otherwise there would be no way to serve you through two agents and you could have a bad end user or customer experience.

    Pobuca Ltd
    BizConnect’s customer service was not good and was a bit slow in searching contacts. But Pobuca is the best choice in this regard--from customer service to the ease with which we can add contact into it is amazing. Its flexibility is another major factor in choosing Pobuca. Finding any contact through this software is very simple, but its scanning feature is a bit slow and takes time.

    Return on Investment
    Bird (formerly MessageBird)
    • Easy video calling for scheduled appointments has meant customer retention as they don't need specific software etc to have a call.
    • Negative impact whilst our internet has been slow as I've been unable to use the product well as dial in to the call using a phone option.
    • Emails reminders has meant more clients turning up for the calls leading to retained income and happier customers.
