What do you like best about the product?
Birdeye puts reputation management right into our fingertips. Birdeye allows us to monitor our reviews, while automating the process of responding to the reviews and adding a personal touch. The easy capabilities to not only respond to reviews, but to gauge sentiment is incredible. Birdeye makes it easier to manage having a wide variety of properties that range in terms of reputation with their incredible reporting capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had a representative who did not provide and aid us with all of the Birdeye capabilities. On another note, sometimes the reporting was limited and we couldn't pull word sentiment clouds/graphs, which would be really helpful to understand what the reviews are saying about each of our different properties.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Birdeye allows us to better connect and engage with our customers throughout our 70+ properties. Birdeye allows our corporate and on-site employees to better gauge what our residents say about our properties. Because of this, we can better address the problems that may be happening we are not aware on on-site. The automated responses allow us to monitor our reviews and better engage with prospects, residents, or anyone who may be having an issue. Staying on top of our reviews helps maintain our brand and support our residents even further, and in turn even address issues we may have not been aware of. Birdeye helps streamline efficiency on our end by being able to reach all residents who leave a response so they feel valued & heard.

What do you like best about the product?
Birdeye is so simple to use and I love that I can text clients from our computer and everyone on the team can see all incoming and outgoing messages in one platform. Getting reviews is so easy, especially with their automated follow up!! Everyone who calls in that found us online raves about all our five star reviews!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! Every time I encounter an "issue" I can easily chat with a birdeye representative and they either help me through it or create an update just for me! One improvement could be a manager role where I could narrow down texts to/from other people rather than just "assigned to me" or "all" so we know all our customers are being taken care of. Automated texting like when we do not get a response to our last text saying hey, you still interested? or whatever we choose would be great also. all in all, for what birdeye advertises they do, they do it well! I've been very pleased with the app and the online platform, and as I said before- their support team is AWESOME. Shout out to Praveen!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Birdeye has helped us get over 600 FIVE STAR reviews and enables us as a team to chat with clients and see the chat history between other team members and the client. You can even "facetime" which is so helpful when trying to talk to someone who isn't in our industry and be sure you're saying the same thing.

What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Birdeye as a DSO is the ability to centralize and automate our review management without the necessity to overwhelm our busy practices. We were able to set up customized responses to reviews, auto reporting, identify trends and have a better overall picture of our practice experiences. We've had great support from our account managing team and never go without communication. As an added thought, I appreciate the partnership with both our day to day success manager as well as the account manager. They always make sure we know about new features or solutions we can consolidate our vendor relationships. We will hopefully be switching some additional tools to Birdeye which should save several hundred dollars a month across our practices.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great if we could run our own custom reports, if possible, without needing to be built. The data is there and seems like it would be an easy addition. Currently, we only have what reports are built in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralizing review management and auto responses. We've combined the need for multiple vendors for different needs into one by signing on with Birdeye.

What do you like best about the product?
I absolutely love and adore the Birdeye product/platform, as well as every single person I have ever interacted with on their team! They provide an incredibly-robust solution for marketing and customer interactions/social media review maintenance. Their product is highly user-friendly, with an accomplished team of employees ready to assist with anything their customers need. Birdeye continues to consistently innovate and anticipate the needs of the industry and its customers, and any company that utilizes its product will be significantly blessed with increased exposure to its customers, as well as a deepened relationship with and profound insights pertaining to the consumers that contribute to their bottom line and profitability. It is also a joy to follow them on social media (I follow them on Instagram) so I can see their progress and impact on the world as a company. I think they ate doing great things!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when the customer has deleted a comment, it still appears in our feed, and we can get confused... although the next time that the cache is refreshed, the review will be removed - not too much of a big deal at all! They seem to always be on top of this and their account managers and customer service are always communicative and kind about our inquiries.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should definitely talk to them and let them tell you about their services!

One of the ways that we use Birdeye is to track our success with each of our employees as they accomplish our Mission of WOWing customers with remarkable service. Being able to see which of our branches has received the review is a wonderful functionality that allows us to keep an eye on territories that are achieving success, as well as areas of our operation that may need some extra attention on our end. We also respond to positive comments and resolve customer experiences that need extra attention or resolution every single day that our doors are open. We use it to communicate with our customers and ensure that they know our care and authenticity and all of this has had a remarkable impact on our Company..

What do you like best about the product?
Because Birdeye increased our number of reviews 3-4 times, we've seen a big increase in business! The team members are always very helpful and are extremely quick to respond, then follow up afterwards. We are enjoying the new IA response help option and the new report just introduced. If we didn't already have an invoicing software in place or social media scheduling, we'd use that feature as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The AI review response suggestions can be improved by getting rid of 'Greetings' and adding keyword phrases and locations -- all for more 'Google Juice'. The dashboard shows 'Listings' as opposed to 'Locations' - this doesn't make sense to me, so I always have to click around trying to find our list of 11 locations! I don't think Google's Business Profile "Asked for Directions" stats should be shown as this is very far off from reality. I can confirm that with my own business. Not sure where Google gets this stat from as it's higly inaccurate!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The training is well worth the time! Use the reports as they tell a great story, and give you ideas on how to improve or modify things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our GM's and front desk personnel seldom took the time to ask for a review, but since we're paying for this software, the owner is requiring them to use the service! Getting reviews consistently is preparing us for when we are not so busy. From the Admin area, I can see which of our 11 shops are sending out emails, and I can't seem to get them to also ask for the email address because this increases our chance of getting a review. I remind them every month, but only 2 shops ask for email addresses. They say customers don't want constant emails from us although they tell them we won't send them an email except for one time as a reminder if they didn't leave a review for us. Any help would be appreciated.
