Attentive: AI‑led Email &SMS

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.

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.

Attentive's platform customization and automation capabilities are top-notch, enabling us to create engaging, personalized messages and efficient campaigns. They've made meaningful updates to their data visualization and analytics providing more valuable insights so we can continue to optimize our strategy. Their integrations and segmentation options further enhance our ability to easily manage campaigns and targeting. Our account team is excellent and the support, innovative features, and reliable service make it the best choice for us.

Attentive is very user-friendly and the integration with AI has made great recommendations based off customer performance and best practices in the industry. We've seen an increase in both engagement and conversions!

"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.

I kept getting messages from the sales encouraging me to try the app, but when I pressed for additional information, all they would provide me was asking for a "20 min call." Eventually, I installed the app and tried it out, but I was horrified to learn that I couldn't use it and that I had to schedule a "20 min call" with them in order to use it.
Since I started using Shopify in 2016, I have never encountered a user experience quite like this one. They are unable to easily contact the user. Install the app and give it a try if you want to confirm my review.

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!!!!
