Overall Satisfaction with Podium

We use Podium to ask for a review from current and new customers in both sales an customer service. Podium solves the ability to solicit a review, provide the platform for a customer to submit the review and the immediacy of a review on social media.
  • Creating an admin user [to be] able to create reports based on locations, users, etc
  • Multiple locations are separate but [with] limited ability to combine them under one user
  • Master user with ability to combine all locations
  • Combined reporting for multiple locations
  • Ability to add reviews to multiple social media platform
  • 300 total reviews from 2009 to 2017. From August to present day we have more than doubled.
  • Podium has allowed us to target reviews on different platforms like Google, Facebook, etc.
  • Targeting does get skewed because it is the customer's choice on which social media to submit a review.
This is the first of its kind we have used for reviews.
Great to generate a lot of reviews. May not be the best option if your processes are not in place or your product is not ready. You would want mostly positive reviews but there will be negative reviews in the mix (90% positive or more). If you get 30% or more bad reviews, Podium will negatively impact your business. The negative side of reviews allows you truthfully get feedback on what you need to improve.
