Chose ReputationStacker
Swell was too expensive. ReputationStacker does the same things (and more), costs less, and as far as I can tell from the Swell demo we did, a lot easier to use.
Chose ReputationStacker
ReputationStacker is all about on reviews and customer experience. It's not trying to be more than that and add a bunch of other features that we either wouldn't use or are already part of the other tools that we use.
Chose ReputationStacker
We did our research before choosing ReputationStacker. Comparing it to other reputation management software it quickly became obvious that ReputationStacker is the best mix of review generation features, review responses, reporting, affordability, etc, especially for …
Chose ReputationStacker
Podium is great if you use all of its features. But it takes a long time to learn and if you don't use ALL of its features then it's very expensive for what it is. We really just wanted a dedicated focused reputation/review management system, so when our Podium contract ended …
Chose ReputationStacker
We did demos with all of them. BirdEye and Podium seem to handle reviews well, but they also have a lot of other features we'd never use. We chose ReputationStacker because of its dedicated focus on reviews (getting them, monitoring them, responding to them). That's all we …
SOCi
Chose SOCi
I used the basic Hootsuite subscription to schedule organic social media posts. However, it fell short in assisting franchises or businesses with multiple locations because it lacks the ability to localize content. So, you would essentially have to create 50 posts for 50 …
Chose SOCi
Soci is a lot better. It’s more user friendly and it makes better for one platform to have all my accounts on
Chose SOCi
We have been using Brandify in order to increase our sales volume and potential customers on the basis of localization offering products and services to a greater number of customers paying a considerable and convenient cost for the service. I am a satisfied user of Brandify …
Chose SOCi
We haven't used a comparable platform for public review management. We use NPS Promoter for NPS analytics, and in comparison, Brandify's analytics do not stack up well. They're a younger platform and seem eager to add new analytics over time, but to date, they do not have the …

Likelihood to Recommend
It's amazing for getting new Google reviews, responding to reviews, and tracking reviews. It also makes it easy for us to follow up with our clients, helping us manage expectations and resolve issues. It's not a full customer support system (and it doesn't try to be).

In my opinion, I think that Brandify is a great software for managing large databases and allowing multiple users to access and edit data at the same time. For medium to large companies that have a strong emphasis on viewing and replying to all their customer reviews. Brandify can save a considerable amount of time and energy by getting everything together in one place.

  • Brandify has made the work so much easier as it avoids spending time looking for better options.
  • It is very helpful platform for the growth of a company.
  • Its analysis helps us in foreseeing situations that can be either good or bad and ensure that we think of a possible solution.

Cons
  • Adding additional locations of our business wasn't obvious at first, but when I figured out how to do it it was easy after that.

  • Some things can be hard to find at first glance in the dashboard
  • Lacks the ability to pull organic social stats from content that is natively posted
  • Facebook ads lack some of the advanced features that Facebook offers

Usability
It takes a few minutes to set up and then it is automatic. It literally takes care of everything you need it to do on its own. You can also work with it a little more if you want to assign reviews to other users to follow up with patients (for example), but overall it is extremely easy to use.

There are some aspects of the scheduling of posts that could be more user friendly for the less tech-savvy users.

Support Rating
I had a question about how to add new locations and the support team got back to me immediately and showed me how to do it.

We have not had to contact support so there is nothing to say in response to this question. We are sure that if we needed to contact them we would be able to get any issues resolved quickly

Podium is great if you use all of its features. But it takes a long time to learn and if you don't use ALL of its features then it's very expensive for what it is. We really just wanted a dedicated focused reputation/review management system, so when our Podium contract ended we switched over to ReputationStacker and it's perfect for what we need.

I used the basic Hootsuite subscription to schedule organic social media posts. However, it fell short in assisting franchises or businesses with multiple locations because it lacks the ability to localize content. So, you would essentially have to create 50 posts for 50 business locations if you wanted to include a unique phone number. SOCi lets you do that with one post. It also lacked a rolled up reporting feature. SOCi can show me what's going on at a high level as well as at the location level or group level.

Return on Investment
  • We have an average of over 30% more clicks on our Google Business Profiles since we started using ReputationStacker (because we now show a lot higher in Google's local search pack).

  • We're still new to the platform and determining this information.
  • We know that some time is saved by the information being gathered together in one place, but we've also spent a lot of time discussing concerns/questions with their care team and getting fully set up.

ReputationStacker Screenshots

Screenshot of ReputationStacker's review management interface, which helps businesses of all sizes get more reviews, respond to them, share them on social media & their own websites, and manage their entire online reputation from a single dashboard.Screenshot of ReputationStacker's review monitoring dashboard. It monitors reviews from over 100 review sites, from Google to industry-specific review sites (like Avvo for lawyers and Healthgrades for doctors).

The user can respond to reviews directly from the ReputationStacker dashboard, and assign reviews to teammates for follow-up, share reviews as posts on social media pages, and share reviews on a company's website via the Review Feed widget.Screenshot of ReputationStacker's reports. These help to turn the qualitative feedback from online reviews and customer feedback into quantified data.

ReputationStacker works for single-location SMBs, but for multi-location online reputation management, the system is not only designed for automatic review generation, but also to run apples-to-apples comparisons of a business's locations to discover what customers really care about, including what's being done right, to where improvements can be made.Screenshot of ReputationStacker’s automated review generation, which requires no manual follow-up. Users can choose their ideal moment to request a review. Review request templates in ReputationStacker are also customizable to (for example) sound more casual or more formal. ReputationStacker's review request forms are on-brand and customizable so you can collect more customer feedback on the frontend, or streamline things and send customers directly to the review sites that are most important (Google, of course, but also niche and industry specific review sites).Screenshot of an example of ReputationStacker's AI review responses. Their prompting allows users to dial-in the brand voice so responses sound like they're coming from a person, and not an automated responder. The system can also be trained for improvement, and thresholds can be set so responses are only sent under certain conditions (e.g. five-star reviews only).Screenshot of ReputationStacker's review widgets can showcase reviews on a company website. The widget can be customized with a few clicks. Copy the embed code and paste it on a website wherever the review should appear. Multiple review widgets can be added.
