    The transition to Google has been painful - key contacts are no longer available.

    If you are buying online, Honey may be able to save you money. By using it as a Chrome extension, this can happen automatically. In recent months some new coupon searching services have arrived (Capital One), but to me, Honey is the "gold standard" by which others are compared.

    • It is always there on the Chrome bar, which makes sure I use it even if i don't think about it
    • It does the searching for discount codes for me, which can save time and stress when digging through emails or trying to google for codes.

    • I have trouble turning it off - its too automatic
    • Sometimes the competitor's product (Capital One) finds other discounts
    • Could offer to find discounts on more online purchases.

    Our initial contract with Wildfire Whitelabel was for $30,000/year, as we progressed we found several alternatives for significantly less. We used this to our advantage to lower the second year to $17,000 with the limitation in the level of support (they call this their "core" subscription). Support has been quite bad.

    During our contract, we also asked for quotes on some custom work, but never managed to get an answer (or actual quote). Now two years into our contract, the limitations and lack of development are enough for us to find a different solution. Newcomers to the market like Rafflecopter, WooBox and PunchTab are delivering much better results for a fraction of the price

    Gave me a thorough rundown on everything the software does. Sometimes it is difficult to run through it all over the phone/internet, but I was able to figure it out myself.

    Wildfire was a merely an adequate social media tool when it existed as a standalone, but it just couldn't compete against other players like Sprout, Falcon, and Sprinklr.
