I recently tried Attentive, and it’s been a great tool for connecting with my customers directly through SMS. The app makes it easy to send out personalized messages and promotions that really catch my customers’ attention. Since using it, I’ve seen more engagement and even a boost in sales!

I've used Attentive SMS and MMS messaging the last four years and love the platform and customer service. Whenever I run into an issue, I'm able to communicate with my CSM or White Glove Service, making it a seamless process that's not frustrating. Attentive is constantly making new updates to the platform, making it a great experience for customers to receive updates and offers in a timely manner. I like being able to update journeys and with the press of a button, turn on a journey that I can tailor with specific copy and brand voice. Overall, I love how user-friendly the interface is and how it has strong integration capabilities with e-commerce platforms such as Shopify, making it a go-to with any company I work at. I definitely recommend!

BEWARE: My repeated requests for cancellation have gone either challenged or ignored for almost a year. Now, after my third request, I “haven’t given proper notice”. The thoughtless response is very frustrating. It appears that either no effort was put forth to look into my repeated requests to cancel my account OR their practices are predatory and shady. Either way, it’s unacceptable and I highly encourage you to choose Klaviyo, PostScripts or any other company that doesn’t require a contract or a meeting for every simple request.

I have worked with Attentive for several years across different direct to consumer businesses. They have consistently been a great partner to scale the SMS channel. From onboarding to ongoing strategy calls - they have provided 10/10 service to see the most revenue and ROI from SMS.

Attentive has been a great partner and really helped elevate our SMS channel. The support we've received has been hugely beneficial in not only helping with setup and onboarding but ongoing, keeping our program fresh and evolving over time.

We love Attentive - we've now worked with them for 3 different countries. The set up and integration are really easy to navigate and the reps are friendly and knowledgeable. The only real obstacle we've come across is a lack of integrations with Shopify Markets - for example, we have the US and CA on one Shopify account and although they're two separate Attentive accounts, we are limited to how many journeys linked to Shopify events we can do for Canada. Overall though, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a robust, easy to navigate and successful SMS program.

Their comprehensive platform, featuring prewritten campaign templates and expert playbooks, has made it easy for us to craft effective campaigns and scale our strategy seamlessly.

What sets Attentive apart is their exceptional customer support. The team consistently surrounds us with experts who offer valuable insights and help drive positive KPI results. Their dedication to our success is evident, and it's why we've not only entrusted them with our SMS marketing but have also migrated our email marketing efforts to their platform.

"I was promised white glove service when I signed up and pitched that there would be some hand holding by a dedicated team member to get me going on their platform, with regular follow-ups during my use of the app. That never happened. I went from someone contacting me non-stop to get me to sign-up to being ghosted by customer support staff with no follow-up and no training. I am not happy and would not recommend using this app because of this." Same thing happened to me. Noone is ever in the same position . Employees keep leaving. I was also was told to sign 3 years and I neber sign more than one and I was promised by Christine that if I had any issues she would let me out of the contract. Also they suggest the texts to help you and when I did that my bill was $2500 a month when my bill was supposed to be under $500. Shame because th app is easy to use. BUT ZERO customer service and they dont provide what they offer

Attentive as a partner has been wonderful. I have to say the level of support and timely responses/guidance is unparalleled - their team is always friendly, supportive and will dive into the tactical with our rather small team - that support is so appreciated. They also are always innovating and adding new features and possibilities so I'm excited to see what else they come up with.

They deal terribly when you decide to go. They didn't release our list on time and porting the number takes weeks (unnecessarily). Their prices are higher than everyone else with almost no advantage (we didn't see any increase in numbers, etc). We've tried Emotive and Postscript as well, and I'd rate Attentive as the worst.

Billing transparency is equal 0. For some weird reason one can not see detailed billing or find exact cost for anything in the account home. Billing invoices are emailed from another system, instead of being visible in the account, no billing history ... nothing. When I think better that must be intentional. Of course, prices might be somewhere in the contract, but who looks at the contracts. Also revenue contributed to the app is incorrect, overestimated. We have lot of revenue from new customers, and of course new customers subscribe to SMS ... attentive attributes every new purchase to the attentive generated revenue.

I can't say enough good things about Attentive. They have been our favorite platform for years. Not only do they offer an incredible product with a seamless shopify integration, but they are second to none when it comes to customer service. the In-app white glove service is awesome, and having a dedicated CSM that is very hands-on is absolutely amazing. I recommend Attentive to everyone!!!!

We've been with Attentive for over a couple of years now and we've had a great experience working with the platform & our account managers. The platform is easy to navigate, they have plenty of resources available on how to optimize your sms/mms marketing strategy, and the campaigns/journeys/signup units are easy to set up! We've definitely seen an increase in ROI since we've made the switch. Not to mention, their White Glove Service is extremely helpful in answering our questions and concerns.
