    I have used Textedly for several years. But recently, in my opinion their commitment to customers and customer service has dramatically declined. They made recent updates to their platform and dramatically increased prices without contacting existing customers. The price of my existing plan increased a significant amount. I have requested that the messages I have purchased be made available to my business and they will not release them until a certain date. When I contacted customer support and ask for resolution, the staff do not answer my questions or offer alternative solutions. I have requested that my account be closed and a refund of the 11 months that I have not used. They will not work with me and only offer that I pay for a higher priced plan or purchase additional messages at a very, very high rate. Please do not use this company. They are no longer considering the needs of customers that have been with them for several years.

    It's great for high-volume use and one-on-one communication. It is a great way for us to reach people who can't speak on the phone or who are in a rush. It is also a great tool for following up with candidates who have become unresponsive.

    • Seamlessly connected with our hubspot.
    • I see all the past records of the contact ie. what we had sent them earlier, offers we shared with them etc within hubspot.
    • Back then our HR team also used it, to reach out to candidates who are potentially fit for a job.
    • It's real time ie. the contacts that we reach out to on TextUs, are already synced with our hubspot which is great.

    • It would be nice to have a labeling feature outside of the "tags".
    • Needs a sorting/filtering option.

    From my experience, their customer service has been disappointing. They have not been willing to work with me and my needs. When pricing was significantly increased, I was not informed of this in advance. It simply increased and I discovered it by accident while reviewing my subscription.

    Sometimes I wonder if I'm just overlooking something because it's so easy to use. It literally took no time to be up and running with this program.

    The UI is not cluttered, it just hits the right nodes and doesn't ask you to do many things at once, also it's easy to do stuff if you know what I mean

    When I ask questions to customer service, the questions are not all answered. They do not come back with alternative suggestions for me and my subscription. They are not rude but only provide standard "answers" that it appears they have been coached to give
