Current accounts are grandfathered, but when considering new accounts, it becomes less viable. > > Overall, good. The good comes from the same reason we got Podium in the first place - review generation. Other features are okay. ----- ### "Great Communication Tool\!" — 4.0/5 > **Erika** | *14 July 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love that we can text back and forth with our customers and create reminder text messages for the customer appointments. It saves a lot of time. > > **Cons**: Having to use another screen to schedule an appointment can slow down the process, it would be easier to have access through the contact info page. > > Total Comfort is overall very pleased with Podium and the abilty to have our customers text us directly through our website. ----- ### "AI makes our small office seem giant" — 5.0/5 > **cristian** | *8 April 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: with our small business the AI allows customers to be helped immediately and streamlines our conversations when we enter the conversation > > **Cons**: customers can get a little confused thinking we're here all the time as opposed to just a generic after hours message > > we have added features to our service over time because we are happy with it and they are always adding things to improve the customer experience ----- ### "All in one communication app" — 5.0/5 > **Jhovanny** | *21 December 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: What i liked most about Podium was the all in one communication found in the application. Whether it was direct messages, attachment requirements, easily accessible and editable contact information and automatic formulas for messaging: all was found in Podium. > > **Cons**: My least favorite detail about Podium may be the occasional glitch and lag. Podium really is just a great application and I cannot think of a dislike. > > Overall my experience has been great. It allows me to text potential new clients, current clients, manage workload and assignment among my team and communicate verbally, virtually and through attachments. ----- ### "Podium is very useful tool" — 4.0/5 > **Jessica** | *18 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the fact that you can go back in and listen to the calls. It helps getting more details that you may miss while actively on the call. Including if capturing the phone number of who is calling so if there is a disconnection we can call back. The recordings also help us when customers are stating that we said something that is untrue. > > **Cons**: The typed transcripts are not always accurate. The AI doesn't do the greatest but improves everyday. Customers can tell as soon as they call that they are speaking to an AI agent. > > Overall I like using Podium for calls and text messages versus using a regular landline. The AI is nice but still needs work. Podium is a very useful tool that we use on a daily basis. ----- Page: 1 / 22\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/172279/podium?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/172279/podium) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
