Kustomer vs. MyMedLeads

I would say the greatest strength of Kustomer is its flexibility. In the hands of a skilled admin, it can be adapted to tons and tons of different use cases. I've been able to make custom displays for different groups of agents, produce complex cross sections of users, draw interesting data relationships combining marketing contacts and customer-initiated contacts. For example, there's really no other data source in our company which could tell you which users received a specific promo code and checked out with it, received their delivery within 14 days and then can related that to the number of times they contacted us about using our product. At the intersection of communication, marketing, data, and relationship-management, Kustomer shines at the center. I would say it falls short when you are trying to coordinate multiple "side conversations" with multiple sources to resolve an issue. This is a tough task for any type of platform, but if you're maintaining 3 different email chains with a 3PL partner, the customer, and a separate internal conversation, it would be confusing anyway!

Even though at this stage I have been using MyMedLeads for several years, I honestly couldn't recommend it for any use case. We have actively been looking for a new CRM to replace it and should be moving away from MML in the near future. You can find a better CRM solution, even if you are using Nextech as your EMR

• All customer data (past orders, communication with customer service, rewards account data) is in one place. This helps agents avoid confusion and reduces the number of tabs they need to open.
• The Knowledge Base (or K Base) is very helpful. Any time we roll out a new policy or have a limited-time promotion, we can add all the relevant information and worksheets there for the convenience of the agents. That way they can stay in a chat while looking up the answer to a question.
• We can seamlessly move from chat into email if the customer leaves or the queue times are too long. All the interactions will stay on the customer profile page, so they are kept up to date.

• Ability to create a patient record within Nextech directly from MyMedLeads
• HIPPA-Compliant
• Good support team

Incentivized

• Small chat window--maybe the ability to chat in real-time with the person who received your ticket would help.
• Different teams could have differently colored notes.
• The notification bell could be a bit bigger. It's hard to keep track sometimes, when a lot of notes pile on.

Incentivized

• In my opinion, horribly underdeveloped platform and feature set
• Bare-Bones CRM Functions
• I believe it is broken, untrustworthy reporting
• SMS marketing features recently shut down due to carrier issues
• I think it is difficult to use, inefficient UI
• No customization options
• Lead source not mapped to Nextech when converting leads
• I believe it is cumbersome, low-quality solutions for VOIP and Live Chat Integration
• Closed API

I believe at this time, Kustomer is doing a good job. I really love its functionality at the moment.

There is a learning curve, but it is more than worth it, especially to have a dedicated resource pointed at Kustomer and any other software it interacts with. The basic implementation is useful, and powerful - certainly a MASSIVE upgrade over taking care of your customers in an email inbox or shuffling between multiple windows and applications! It is also set up really well to grow and reconfigure with your business. I'm a big fan.

I think it is cumbersome, underdeveloped and outdated user interface with zero customization options.

I gave it a 10 rating because it is very helpful and the availability is there when needed. I have never had issues with application errors or unplanned outages so far.

Kustomer Performances need improvement. The pages do load very slowly but that might be because of the information they carry. If Kustomer integrates with other software or systems it does slow the performance. They need to find a solution to this.

I did not reach out to Kustomer support when we had an issue. Still, whenever we provide feedback to our manager regarding what can improve based on our experience using Kustomer, our manager always comments that Kustomer support always replies with some positive feedback based on our suggestions.

Good support from their team.

Because they are very hands-on in training us and very approachable

The best training I did was online. Videos teach as well as explain how everything works and what Kustomer's functions are.

Nothing really because it is easy to use. After an hour of using it, we're already getting the hang of it.

Apps like Intercom, Zendesk, and Gorgios all treat customer inquiries as tickets, just tracking that one issue or interaction with a customer. Kustomer treats each customer as an individual, which allows us to provide top-notch customer service. Customers love that we're able to be more conversational and informal, while still solving their issues quickly. It also helps us build relationships with customers and increases repeat orders.

Incentivized

Because customer is flexible and scalable

• We’re getting so much positive feedback — which is not something you traditionally associate with a customer care team — because we’re making it effortless for customers to deliver both positive and negative feedback, and we can now resolve the bad feedback really really quickly.
• Primarily from our increased efficiency with Kustomer, we’ve seen a significant reduction of $3 to $4 for every cost per contact.

Incentivized

• Lack of integrations with our other systems and closed API makes for a cumbersome and fragmented tech-stack at out practice
• Able to track ROAS of basic campaigns (Google Ads, Meta Ads)
• Barebones CRM features helps to support the staff
• I think it is barebones Marketing Automation helps with lead nurturing
• SMS Marketing was useful until it was shut down
