    The reporting feature is not as detailed as we require for our documentation, so we have to organize the results into charts and graphs. For every other component of our social media and digital marketing, emfluence checks all of the boxes.

    What I have found to be the most critical for my business as a customer of Thryv is the ability to provide an invoice and accept payment with direct linking to my bank account. This has had a dramatic positive impact on my cash flow.

    Cons
    emfluence Digital Marketing
    • I do have issues sometimes when making a website popup. I specify certain measurements of my popup yet when it shows up on my website, the graphic doesn't adjust and I have a bunch of white space. But that could also be my website.
    • When adding a new contact into the contact section, once you hit save, the contact information stays on the screen instead of an empty contact profile so you can immediately add the next person.
    • Sometimes when I update a template, The unsubscribe link will link to my email address instead of the person the email is being sent to.

    • Offer an automated rewards program for my customer based on their spending and their referrals.
    • Since I use Shopify and they host me it would be nice to get a financial break for not using that part of the package.
    • Maybe providing apps.

    It is very easy to use and the features are great for the ones we utilize. If you have any issues at all, customer service or our sales rep is great to work with and fixes what issues I have. They are always willing to help out and to follow up to make sure you don't have any more issues.

    Although getting through to the right person may take a while, they have the ability to take over your screen and always assist with whatever you need.

    They were the only company that could solve our specific problems. When we looked at larger companies like Constant Contact, they weren't as capable at handling our specific needs for a reasonable price. Some companies need to charge us programming hours. Bigger companies couldn't help our issue. emfluence is more flexible.

    Let's say use this software because it gives a lot of benefits to the company and we no other software use do not.
