EZ Texting vs. MoEngage

EZ Texting would be well suited for a small business that doesn't have the man power to be able to contact all of the leads they have coming in or who struggles to maintain communication with current clients at times. It would not be appropriate for a business who is looking to send phishing texts out to a large group of people.

MoEngage is well suited for all tech-enabled businesses, as then one can integrate all the possible events or relevant metrics, push them on MoEngage, and then make meaningful insights out of that, and--most importantly--use those for improving their customer engagement. It's probably not suited for offline-only businesses, stores, etc.

• Drafts don't save well, seemed like I kept having to redo the same text because a draft wouldn't save.
• I want to be able to click and update users quickly, but there were too many steps to add/remove people from lists.
• The app didn't work if I used google SSO - i couldn't ever get signed in.

• Attribution
• Onboarding could be faster

We're excited about EZ Texting and what it does for us. We want to get more into automation with campaigns dealing directly with web sales so a more robust solution will likely leave EZ Texting as our event activation partner and only be used during select times of the year.

Considering the inability to scale and the bad service level provided by MoEngage not sure if the organization will continue with the renew

EZ Text was very easy to set up and very intuitive. It does not take long at all to add your contact lists or to set up templates. It takes a second to get used to when it comes to sending mass group texts, but all in all, it does what we need to do and was easy to implement. We were able to do it ourselves.

We have never needed to use the system and it be unavailable. They seem to schedule their server maintenance perfectly (at least for us!).

It works pretty well but sometimes things don't work the way you would assume, IE marking messages as read is not as intuitive

EZ Texting "gets it"! When I have had something I needed customer service to help me with, they returned my emails and calls promptly. I have a smaller business and they came through as if I was a huge corporate entity. They really care about all sizes of customers!

It's good and mostly on-time support. But they have a lot of demand, hence at times, they take some time to get back to us. Overall, they know their game and most of the people we spoke with knew their domain very well.

The most important aspect of implementation was selecting a valuable keyword. When we first started using EZ Texting, we were able to grab a simple, easy word to use to connect people to our texts. That proved invaluable in our marketing and selling people on using the service. If we didn't have a good word, I would imagine it wouldn't have been as successful.

We chose EZ Texting over enterprise solutions because of it's ease of set up, ease of use, and low barrier to entry. We had discussions with other companies, and it seemed very complicated and would require a lot of set up on our end. We don't have a dedicated IT or marketing team. We are a small business. So those barriers were just too complicated and we decided to go with an easier solution.

Haven't evaluated other tools because back then there is urgent need and expected that they could provide on of the best quality service but in fact when being pushed for the scale for the growth of the company, it seems that MoEngage team is not able to cope up with the speed.

We have been grandfathered into our old package, but I wish there were better package options offered now.

We haven't really utilized it for this purpose but it does seem like there are a lot of great options you can utilize.
