Text Request
Text Request is appropriate for all kinds of scenarios! I really have NOT found a situation where Text Request was not suitable to use to try and reach a patient. We have used TR to contact a patient that we have received a referral from their Primary Doctor and we need to schedule an evaluation, we have used TR for insurance and Billing, we have used TR for contacting patients that missed a visit and to reschedule.

If you are facing issues of agents not being able to respond to queries, which is usually faced with our tools, Zoho SalesIQ is probably the best choice as the default notification is very loud and clear hence makes sure that no chat query is left unattended. The desktop application of Zoho SalesIQ for Windows, Linux, and MAC OS is a superb feature not offered by many other chat applications. The geographical locations of website visitors are sometimes not very accurate hence it is advised not to always rely on it and better reconfirm it from the lead.

Cons
Text Request
  • I think so far the only improvement I could suggest would be to be able to "un-send" a text within like 30 secs in case you send something out incorrectly.
  • Maybe adding more emojis
  • When sending a file make the size of the pic they see bigger

  • Overall it's a very simple tool that doesn't offer a lot of complexity or expanded tools
  • Even though it's all in the Zoho family, it doesn't work seemlessly with CRM or other Zoho products
  • Not always the best at identifying similar users across different browsers, devices, etc

Usability

Text Request is very user friendly. I started using the Text Request platform on Day 1 without any specific instructions and I was able to figure it out very easily!

I use Hatch for my service businesses because they integrate with our CRM tool and Text Request does not. I am NOT a fan - their support is not even half as good as TR but they fill a need that our company has. I like the technology, customer service and ease of use that Text Request gives to us - I just want them to integrate with my CRM! If so, I'd leave Hatch in a heartbeat!

Tawk to was nice but it was missing a lot of features that Zoho SalesIQ has. And a massively important advantage that SalesIQ had was that it integrated with other Zoho apps that we already used. The pricing of Zoho SalesIQ was also very attractive, we felt that it offered a great bang for our buck.

Return on Investment
Text Request
  • That is not something we see from an office standpoint. This is something that our Headquarters would keep track of.
  • What I can say is that the amount of patients being scheduled after implementing TR has been in an upward trend.
  • Also patients that missed their appointments are more likely to reschedule when being able to do so with just a text message

  • We interact with about 50 visitors a month and it's great when we can see the full picture, to see and interact based on whether they are a new contact or a long-time customer.
  • Capturing new website visitors at the time that they have a question about your product is important.
  • Missing chats can be frustrating.
