Modern Campus Message

Pros: Once you set up the program, it runs almost automatically without having to remember to send out texts. This means you need to know in advance what you'd like to communicate out.

Cons: Setting up the program initially took some time because we needed to anticipate the entire semester in advance. After the initial set-up, maintenance gets easier over time.

Pros: Once you figure out how to use their product it's easy to send texts to the various groups you plan to text.

Cons: Would love for them to improve their reporting capabilities. We currently track everything manually- they don't have a way to tie back clicks from links used in messages back to users like how you can track with most email providers. They also don't track the number of opt-outs per text you send so you have to manually pull that data.

Pros: I like that I can text hundreds of students using my laptop rather than my phone. Students are more receptive to texts than to email so I love that I can use a more reliable form of communication.

Cons: $77

Pros: The best feature of SignalVine is the ease of use for quick messages sent to a large group of people. The "Quick Message" feature is crucial and the ability to schedule out multiple message is excellent. Also - the customer service and account managers are incredible, quick to respond, and attentive.

Cons: The uploading of lists is very finicky and requires a learning curve an a lot of customer support. Also, to schedule a message triggered responses requires you to work with your rep as you cannot do this on your own within the platform - same goes for sending gifs or images.

Pros: Signal Vine is easy to interact with, learner friendly and best communication software It helps the institution tract all student performance,records and learners financial dues It also helps to streamline communication between students and the school staff and among students too.

Cons: To this extend i have not identified a major issue with Signal Vine maybe you just create something like pre-formatted templates to fill in to reduce cases of uploading types word documents

Pros: Simple to use. Very helpful and responsive staff. Flexible platform allows us to easily customize and target messaging using a blended approach.

Cons: Needs much more sophisticated advanced search functionality. Would also like to see more options for real time alerts to notify active users when messages are received.

Pros: Allows us to easily text our students from an online platform - we have a higher response time to easy questions! Big time saver!

Cons: The student look-up could be a bit easier, with fewer clicks; or I wish that it were connected directly into our student database so that you could text with one click!

Pros: Signal Vine is really easy and intuitive to use. Students engage with it very well. The customer support team is wonderful, fast, friendly, and extremely efficient and competent. I loved it when I started using it, and they just keep making it better.

Cons: There's really nothing about it that I don't like. My least favorite thing perhaps, is writing new scripts because that's a but tedious and time consuming, but it's also what I get paid for!

Pros: The ability to create variables to individualize program messaging. I enjoying being able to send messages quickly either through my phone or on my computer. I like seeing the stats so I can see my engagement with my students.

Cons: It does take a little bit of time to get used to the software. I would like MMS messaging to be easier to use. I would also like it if I can send a message via the "pop up window" instead of going into the conversation, much like the pop up that happens if the user creates a red dot.

Pros: The navigation. The look. How user-friendly it is! I have seen other products and they are not as clear on the two-way communication as Signal Vine is.

Cons: There are so many features that I am not as familiar with! So, it really isn't a "least" category but for me I need to become more comfortable using the features.

Pros: Easy to program and great customer service. Our SignalVine contact responds to emails withing 24 hours and is always able to help us troubleshoot programming concerns.

Cons: Not as intuitive for someone who has little experience with technology. The learning curve for someone with no previous tech experience is pretty big .
