    Chatmeter
    I am responsible for responding to all reviews that are submitted for our company. We have over 200 locations and it would be time consuming to have to check each of these GMB profiles individually. Chatmeter provides a one-stop solution for quickly and efficiently managing our online reputation.

    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.

    • 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.

    Cons
    Chatmeter
    • The AI response tool is helpful, but should not be used without tweaks.
    • Some review platforms do not allow responding from within Chatmeter.
    • The social dashboards are not up-to-date with relevant metrics. Some posts show zero engagement when in reality, it has over 100 likes and 30 shares.

    • Get rid of the very aggressive sales staff.
    • Refund money for unused moths. Do not be so shady!

    It's great overall. There's a few areas where improvements could be made. I've been pleased with the updates we've seen since we started using Chatmeter several years ago.

    Chatmeter
    Before we decided to go with Chatmeter, we looked strongly at Reputation.com. This was several years ago, so I am not as familiar with how they compare now, but at the time we felt that we could get the functionality we wanted and needed from Chatmeter at a better price than Reputation.com.

    • The support team is very professional. I had problems while using Signpost in the past and I contacted their support on that matter.
    • 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.
