User Testimonials
	GrowSurf	ReferralCandy
Likelihood to Recommend	GrowSurf We were launching an incentive and loyalty program for a client and they had so many questions. GrowSurf and their system basically gave us a script to follow and the setup, trainings, and tracking provided by their software made the project successful. At the end of the day, we use this and our clients use this to get started in loyalty and incentive programs from here on out. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ReferralCandy ReferralCandy is overall a great tool that saves me time and money. Creating a referral program on your own is incredibly difficult and this tool allows for an automated system to send us an option to opt into the referral program. Their customer success team is very helpful and they're quick to get back to us when we have a question. We also love the ban feature when a customer abuses the referral program.

Cons	GrowSurf A team dashboard will be a great feature to have with more levels of access. Filter and parameters can be added into dashboard. Template UI customization can be enhanced. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ReferralCandy I would love to see a multi-tiered referral or reward system so that we can offer certain customer groups unique offers. I would love a feature where you can issue a reward to a customer without them "qualifying for it". Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	GrowSurf No answers on this topic	ReferralCandy ReferralCandy went above and beyond when it came to the initial integration of their app with our e-commerce store. They walked us through, step by step, how to install it, and then spent time helping track down a display bug that had popped up, giving us a couple free months for our trouble even!

Alternatives Considered	GrowSurf GrowSurf was recommended to us by a friend and we were impressed after the free trial so we decided to go with it. The price was right and it offered what we needed so we didn't feel the need to try out other programs before deciding to go with GrowSurf.

Return on Investment	GrowSurf Around 30% growth in new user onboarding. Less cost of marketing then ad programs. Less time consuming and requires less team size Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ReferralCandy ReferralCandy has been positive because it allows customers to refer new customers to discover our brand. We'd love to know more about how this affects our customer acquisition cost. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
