## Reviews

### "Great Add on to any business\!" — 5.0/5

> **Monica** | *19 March 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is a convenient and simple way to communicate with my clients as they're able, instead of interrupting them with a call. It is quick and easy
> 
> **Cons**: the limit of letters is a bit rough, but doable. It would be nice if there were a few more available to us to send.
> 
> This has been quite the upgrade to our service for our clients. In todays technology, the ability to send a test to a client in a text centered communication world is great \!

### "Text Review" — 4.0/5

> **Roy** | *4 December 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to set up and use.  I like that I could choose the display name
> 
> **Cons**: that i could not keep the view I wanted.  If I went to a message then went back it was at a different screen.  Also I only got an alert if the tab was opened.
> 
> Overall it works good. I would have liked to get the notifications if the tab was minimized

### "Try Text Request\!" — 4.0/5

> **Heidy** | *19 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The system is practical and very easy to use. We do only use it for text messages, maybe in the future we could use the other features.
> 
> **Cons**: I think it needs an updated interface. Something that is more interactive or just a different style would be super nice\!

> So far, there have been minimal updates, which isn't bad, but there could still be room for improvement.
