It was good, but then the price jumped up we started looking at other companies and found better options.
Pros
I loved how you could see who unsubscribed from your texting service and that also the stop was included within the text but not charged to you as credits.
Cons
The price jumped up on us and was just too expensive to use. Also it was difficult to put forms in and it didn't have the google shortner option so when you put a link in it ate up much of your character limits.

Good Platform for Small Company

Pros
Easy to send ad hoc messages. Really good platform for a small company.
Cons
Can't scale for bigger companies. Back-end system is not able to communicate/pull data efficiently.

Good Tool for Politics
Reviewed on 2022/03/16
Pros
I think the interface and overall ease of use is Tatango's best attribute. It's easy to teach and learn. Also, the segmentation and testing is easy to figure out.
Cons
It is hard to navigate from one campaign to another if they are not owned or hosted by the same administrator/organization (you'll have to set up multiple usernames & then log out/log in to go between groups if working on more than one org.)

Pros
Tatango is fairly easy to use and has all the features most users will ever need. I also really liek the blog the provide - lots of helpful tips.
Cons
This can get a little pricey, especially for a small business. Also, even though it is very easy to use, you still need a level of sophistication to fully take advantage of Tatango.

We needed a better way to reach our customers to drive revenue. Email is dead and paid social can get expensive. Yes we had to do the work to acquire phone numbers in addition to emails but seeing great success with adding this form of communication and letting our customers choose how they receive our promotions, product updates etc.
Pros
So easy to use. Didn't need hours of on-boarding, was up and running, sending messages and pulling reports on the first day. Also love that Tatango focuses on SMS and is REALLY good at it vs. just being another add-on within a CRM or email service. They know what they're doing and team provided helpful strategies to acquire and engage our customers.
Cons
Honestly nothing. 10/10 very happy and highly recommend for any brand.

Overall, Tatango has been beneficial for our organization and our marketing strategies, and we will continue to use their services.
Pros
Tatango can be hard to navigate at first, but overall has a lot of powerful features. Discovering all these features and implementing them into our marketing plan has been crucial in our growth.
Cons
Tatango is not the most ' user-friendly' or 'pretty' option, if anything I'd recommend changing the user interface.

I work in fundraising -- and Tatango has yielded at least 200% ROI within the first month of investment. This is an exceptional addition to any fundraising program
Pros
Incredibly user friendly -- great visual previews. You can teach someone to use this in about 5-10 minutes.
Cons
I work at a firm and across many clients who use Tantago -- it's frustrating to need to tie each account to another email instead of having one log in and a list of clients to select once logged in

Great Customer Journey Mapping
Reviewed on 2018/04/18
Pros
Tatango allows you to load all of your customer touchpoints i.e. email, calls, SMS, etc. into one system to view customer journey drop off points. It was easy to set up and reporting is fairly straight forward.
Cons
Hypothesis testing on Tatango is somewhat ambiguous. When we were talking to their customer success folks we weren't sold on the whether or not we were going to get the right insights out of the tool or validate our own preconceived notions of problems our customers were having with our products.

The staff is attentive, responsive and moves quickly on big or small requests. They are constantly looking ahead and prioritizing the most important part of text message programs: deliverability.
Pros
Tatango has a friendly UI for all skill-sets and levels, making it easy to train juniors on the team to utilize the platform. The workflow makes sense and is logical, and can be applied to the growing and changing needs of your text messaging operation.
Cons
Page load times and ease of reporting are the two areas my team has been working with Tatango to improve.

Tatango
Reviewed on 2020/08/21
Pros
The software is super easy to use and very effective.
Cons
It would be nice to be able to set reminders to make sure our subscribers hear from us on a regular basis. In a small company where one person carries a lot of different titles it easily slips through the cracks. It would also make things more efficient if there was a way to automatically share with your text subscribers and social media subscribers simultaneously.

Easy but frustrating
Reviewed on 2020/05/18
Pros
Software is overall easy to use and understand with minimal learning curve. While it takes some outside tinkering to do exactly what you want, it's very customizeable.
Cons
There have been numerous times where the software still simply break. A text that was scheduled to go instead gets deleted, or in the process for saving it gets deleted, or costs will not calculate. There has been very little explanation for this, and as an organization that uses this 5/7 days of the week it's disappointing.

easy to loading texts, quick results, simple user interface
Cons
could do more with targeting - limited to including 'any' or 'all', can't do a mix (If I wanted to send recent users who also had a tag, but then exclude a different group)
Once or twice scheduled texts have died due to tatango errors

Great Team, Intuitive Platform
Reviewed on 2020/08/27
Pros
We helped set up a customer on the Tatango platform. The Tatango UI was very easy for the customer to use. They were selected over other vendors becuase their platform was able to send text messages to very large lists (4M+ subscribers) very quickly with high deliverability. We liked them becuase their support requests were answered quickly by very knowledgeable people.
Cons
Their platform currently focuses on the US and Canada and they lack Mobile Wallet functionality that some others in the space have on their SMS platforms.

Very effective for text based fundraising.
Pros
This is highly effective for texting.
Service is great too.
Cons
The program can be buggy, but it's getting better.
Also, some of the bugs have more to do with the carriers than the software itself.
Company is very responsive to help tickets.

Pros
Tatango has an easy to use UI. We use it almost exclusively via API and we can do pretty much anything we need to via API since we are just using Tatango to send out SMS messages.
Cons
It isn't the cheapest text marketing solution, but you get what you pay for.
