    TargetBay
    If you want to use email to market to your customer base and you don't want to handle the weekly chore of creating and sending the emails, then TargetBay and in particular, Danielle is the way to go. If you are not interested in email marketing or you can take care of that in-house, then there may be better choices to handle your reviews. It is rare today to find a company as responsive and easy to work with as TargetBay.

    Usability
    Lucidworks
    It is incredibly intuitive and so easy to use that business people can now complete functions that used to be limited to software developers only.

    TargetBay, while it is a great tool and more than pays for itself, is not the most user-friendly and/or easy to use. Even our very tech-savvy employees have struggled through figuring out some of the work flows. While TargetBay's technical support team on chat is amazing, they are not always available and documentation on "how-to" user and or do XYZ on their platform needs improvement.

    If I could rate their chat support separately than their phone support, I would rate their chat support at an 8 or 9. Their chat support team, when online, can usually answer most any questions quickly and clearly. If they can't find the answer right away, they always follow up with an email providing you the help/assistance you need. However, their phone support is another story. I would rate the phone support a 4. Most of the times, while not all of the time, that we've had to talk with someone on the phone, we typically are left with more questions and/or not the answer we were looking for. I think this may be partially due to the language barrier, but either way it has pushed us to want to only use that chat option for support which, unfortunately, is more time-consuming.

    IDOL seems to be a blackbox solution. Fusion is much more flexible with more features and options for developers to choose from.

    We have used other customer review services in the past. I did not have the level of involvement with them like I do with Danielle and TargetBay. Email marketing is a major plus. And the PPC ads have been cost-effective. I am pleased with TargetBay and the results we have been getting since working with them.

    Return on Investment
    Lucidworks
    • Allowed us to move software developers from enterprise search to other customer focused applications due to built in signals processing and related popularity boosting out of the box.
    • Enabled business experts to work directly with Fusion to influence search results and not be so dependent on developers.

    • We have seen a positive ROI with TargetBay. Once we get through Covid-19, it will be even better.
    • I know we are communicating with our customers on a regular basis, keeping Sign Art Etc in their minds as in-person events start happening again.
    • Emails we send are professional and creative. Much better than I would do.
    • PPC with TargetBay is better than what we see with Google Ads.
