Birdeye vs. Dixa vs. Signpost

For businesses that have customers or clients or patients with several different locations, Birdeye is essential to help with the reviews and messages received through Google and other platforms. For businesses with only 1 single location, Birdeye could still be useful but wouldn't be as essential as it would be for other businesses.

Dixa may be a more cost-effective cash flow program than other programs used in our organization. Dixa does not require us to change our phone number when using the application because it is adaptable to our current number; the Dixa team handles the interface by quickly adding our phone number to their system. Despite the significant additions and updates to Dixa, our company is very pleased with the results obtained so far.

I would NEVER recommend Signposts! Signpost's fee is very expensive for a small company like ours, so I had to cancel the service - or at least TRY to. I contacted them the day after they billed our card for another $2,000, and I was told that we were automatically on the hook for another year, with no exceptions and no recourse. Very greedy and desperate; this doesn't seem like the way to keep happy clients.

• Their customer service is always very helpful and ready to give you the personal attention that you require.
• They connect many different sources and funnel them straight to you so you can easily capitalize on multiple platforms and information streams.
• They are constantly innovating and improving their systems with real-time feedback from their customers.

• The text recording of calls has made our life in the office easier since we often miss some requests, which with this feature we can attend to.
• The pre-recorded greeting is a good way to keep the customer waiting to be answered.
• The chatbot feature is perfect for customers with simpler problems to be solved.

• The best feature that I like the most and have been using for some time is their marketing tool. Signpost makes marketing an easy task. It has enhanced our productivity.
• As I did things manually in the past but now Signpost has made this very much easier for me to just trust their marketing tool to do marketing according to the algorithm.
• It helps me to have more organic views on the platform and more positive reviews on the newsletter.
• The automated system asks for reviews from the customer which makes it even more helpful in changing and advancing new things.
• It also changes our approach to the work and with the automated extremely functional setup it increases our positive reviews which is good for the organization.

• The sentiment feature is just okay. It requires custom adjustments and time to understand where it is working well and where it is not in order to get the most out of it, while other features require very little user input.
• Social listening needs work. I often receive notifications for unrelated terms because of their similarity in spelling to my organization's name, so I don't use this feature.
• Birdeye could have more built-in features to create digital content from the reviews.
• Birdeye could also have additional reputation tools to strengthen GMB listings and to combat negative press. Review listings and rich snippets in search are great, but having a tool that measures and helps to improve overall brand health/search results would be amazing. My CEO isn’t looking at what is going right. He looks at what is going wrong. We may have thousands of positive reviews on Google, but the bad article with false information is still showing up on page one of search results. That makes for an unhappy CEO.

• I wish it had the option of call transcription so that you don't just have access to the recording.
• We have had some problems when receiving calls, as they are forwarded instantly without allowing us to answer them.
• We have also had problems integrating with social networks, we have not yet been able to integrate them.

Incentivized

• Provide user a way to cancel their service.
• Get rid of the very aggressive sales staff.
• Refund money for unused moths. Do not be so shady!

I think it is a good tool overall, there are some hiccups but what program doesn't have them. I think we should be notified of more things, specifically broken integrations. There have been instances where I don't notice for MONTHS a client it's having requests sent out because they are organically still getting reviews.

I think it is very easy to figure out very quickly by just playing around in the dashboard. If you have a question you can reach out to our contacts and they do a very good job of figuring out if or what is the problem and getting back to us fast.

Support is really responsive for the most part. I don't feel like they explain it the best for people who aren't as tech-savvy. I have recently had trouble with a more difficult integration and it is hard to pinpoint who I need to reach out to.

Let Birdeye do what they do

Our choice of reputation management platform came down to two contenders, Birdeye and Listen360. Ultimately we chose Birdeye because of their ethical review gathering process. Listen360 had review-gating built in as part of their process, which is against Google's terms of service. We wanted to be very careful to gather reviews in an ethical way, and Birdeye was better for our needs.

Value proposition was by far and away the best. Any other system that had the features was much more expensive. The ease of programming made start up cost almost non existent. You have the ability to modify programming easily and do any special projects that invariable need to be accomplished by customer care.

• They responded very professionally, listen[ed] to each and every problem related to the work, and doing hindrance to the flow of work with the full-fledged solution to the problem.
• This makes me more confident in using the platform more in depth.
