Likelihood to Recommend This is such an easy platform to set up and connect to the different social media channels that you would want to use for an upcoming giveaway. It makes it simple for your participants to join and is an easy way for you to increase your engagement in the contests.
Read full review It's a great platform if you're looking for something to run contests that provide leads and drive user engagement, but if they also incorporated social media management and scheduling, Wishpond would be a 10 by far. It's definitely worth looking into specifically for running contests throughout the year, for a wide variety of companies and industries.
Read full review Pros Rafflecopter helps to connect our business with our clients outside of clinic. Rafflecopter allows the ability for our clients to spread the word about our clinic through our social media efforts. Rafflecopter truly lets us see how successful we are with our clients, especially because if our patients were not truly satisfied with our services, then they would not want to take part in the giveaways and promotions that we run through Rafflecopter. Read full review Very small learning curve, thanks to wonderful real-time tutorials and help, and drag-and-drop editors. Easy to navigate - there are only 3 main sections of the site (content, lists, and emails). Excellent customer service. I've always gotten prompt answers to any questions I've had. Read full review Cons Does not have an API. A knowledge base article saying they are considering one has was last updated 8 years ago. The list of integrated email service providers has not been updated in a very long time. Must login to download payment receipts--no emailed receipt. Read full review They added keywords to campaigns we'd specifically said not to. They should tweak campaigns with a 0.06 ROAS. They should provide the services that are promised. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I think not that the problem was with Rafflecopter, but rather our company and it's approach to Social Media. Being a conservative B2B company in the manufacturing / safety industry doesn't, at this time, offer us many "social" connections that leads to sale/brand awareness. I think we might be better served on a different social network, say LinkedIn. On a personal note, it was a pleasure using Rafflecopter. Easy, fast, cheap and I can see how it can be hugely effective to a social media campaign for those that are in a different industry than the one I work in. I will certainly be recommending the product to my friends and other businesses that are more appropriately served by Rafflecopter.
Read full review Support Rating There is no support at Wishpond. I contacted my project manager's manager over a week ago without a reply. When I responded to the automated 'How is your experience' email saying how awful it was there was no follow-up. When I had trouble and had to escalate things it resulted in some new procedures being put in place that changed nothing and they never checked in to see if things were fixed.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Rafflecopter is widely used and people have usually heard of it before. The other way we coordinate giveaways is to have a. spreadsheet with all the entries. Then use Google's random number generator which correlates to one of the rows in the spreadsheet which would be our winner
Read full review We choose Wishpond as our first option since we were a startup e-commerce.
Klaviyo was a little bit expensive for us and Wishpond really suits pretty well in our budget. Besides, if you don't have so many clients, at a first glance, there are a lot of features that would not be taken advantage of. That is why Wishpond was a better option when we started.
Read full review Return on Investment Rafflecopter helped the brands I was working on start implementing a social media strategy because of the consistent results I saw. The widget helped increase engagement on Twitter by using the customized tweet forum. Read full review Negative google ROI. A few conversions in September on paid social then none - negative ROI. Between ad spend and Wishpond fees every month is negative ROI. Can’t wait until I can get out of this contract. Emails don’t perform as well as my own for open rates or clicks.
