What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Bazaarvoice is everything you need for gathering, managing and utilising user generated content. It is easy to use and support for getting the most out of the service is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

Bazaarvoice is not cheapest of the alternatives and sometimes getting the required key account manager support is difficult. Also getting GDPR-agreement in place was far from easy and quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bazaarvoice:

The Bazaarvoice tool is only as good as your internal resources and efforts using it. In order to get the full benefits of the service you need to allocate people and time utilising it. If you do, it pays off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bazaarvoice UGC is a tool to increase turnover and improve our operations in generall. UGC helps to improve SEO and increase traffic, it generates trust and improves conversion rate and furthermore it is an internal tool for category managers and suppliers to see what customers think about our products and services.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

The customization available on the back end is really fantastic. No more code changes if you want to change a button color or font size. Having full control of the look and feel is very control in a fast-moving ecommerce environment. Their tools for feed/pixel health are also really helpful in troubleshooting any errors we may encounter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

They have been making changes to their platform in the last year that are slowly consolidating different functionality (reporting, for example) into one location, versus having 2 different applications to look through, but it's still a little non-intuitive sometimes when trying to find data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Bazaarvoice:

There are smaller, simpler platforms out there, but it all depends on your needs. BV has a huge amount of functionality, but you need the bandwidth to leverage it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

We wanted to have a platform where we could syndicate our product reviews with our resellers, and BV has the biggest network by far. They also have great tools for attracting more reviews, with order validation that some other platforms don't have, which means we aren't limited to just the built-in post-purchase review invitation functionality. With their available order validation and product search, we're able to market generically to customers and allow them to verify they purchased our products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

We use Bazaarvoice every day, it's a great tool for monitoring customer sentiment. We've also used Bazaarvoice for their sampling which is always a great collaborative process. It's been easy to use to generate reports, sync reviews with our retailers, and update content on site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

It's not always easy to communicate with the support team to get to a resolution. However, they are very responsive!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bazaarvoice helps us to manage and report on our reviews which allows us to better understand customer sentiment. Highlight points where we can improve and where we have gaps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Vast community of great reviewers who write constructive feedback that helps us learn what consumers are looking for and informs our customers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

The thing I dislike most about Bazaarvoice is definitely the customer service. Any time we are having an issue and reach out to a rep we are redirected to the support email where each time you reply you end up talking to someone else and re explaining the situation. Days can go by without a resolution. The interface of the site is also terrible. I cant search to see if I sampled a style I have to go through each campaign (which are all named the same thing, so confusing) and look through each page of styles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bazaarvoice helps us accumulate and distribute user generated content between ratings and reviews and social media content to better inform our customers so they can make an educated purchase and know all of the great qualities of our product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

The best thing that I like about affable a.i is that as a business professional it helps me to find relevant and authentic influencers with the help of multiple filters. Adding to this, it enables me to save more time in acquiring influencers essential informations which I need such as their demographics,reach, engagement rate, and etc. As a result, it increases more my effieciency at work with the assurance that I will find the right influencers across different platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

Well, to be honest I personally think that among any other platforms affable is on top that is why I cannot say anything bad or I dislike about this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem that affable a.i is solving is the difficulty in finding the right influencers that befits your brand. Hence, because of this new innovation at affable a.i I can now easily track influencers without consuming more of my time at the same time with the assurance that I can perfectly find the best influencers whom I can tap for my brand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Debra Tong of Bazaarvoice

Hi Oliver! Sincerely appreciate your write up of Affable, and glad to know it's effective in finding appropriate influencers, hence saving more time.

Really excited for the team to maximise "Magic Search" in this aspect too.

Best, Debra

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Bazaarvoice is a reliable tool in ensuring that our product reviews are syndicated to our entire retail environment. We are also able to leverage their TryIt Sampling program to ensure we launch products with substantial reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

Some of the technology that Bazaarvoice is built on is a bit clunky and can be difficult to find your way around in. Additionally, they use excel spreadsheets to run certain sampling programs that seem prone to human error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bazaarvoice helps solve the unification of our reviews at every retailer we sell in. We also use them to give us substantial reviews for new products through their sampling program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does a good job of syndicating reviews, if you can figure out the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

If there's anything that is missing/going wrong, it's VERY hard to identify the source of the issue. Their customer service also leaves a lot to be desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

They are syndicating our reviews to third party platforms that we sell on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Bazaarvoice is great for obatining reviews for your products. The user dashboard is convienent and easy to use. Reviews are obtained fairly quickly. Great for obtaining reviews and feedback on product prior to launch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

I feel like the communication between our team and the bazaarvoice team can be improved. Multiple emails from different Bazaarvoice reps can be confusing. In our case we have items that are low price, that low price/ value is not clearly explained to reviewers and often times our items are compared to much more expensive items which leave poor reviews. REviewers are not considerate of value as price of products is not always clearly shown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

I work with a major supplier for Walmart. Walmart requests reviews on products prior to launch. Bazaarvoice has great pricing for Private Label suppliers to obtain incentivezed reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since we are available on most Marketplaces, syndicating reviews on all these portals at one go becomes so much easier. Implementation is pretty simple too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost - less discounts/deals available for already existing accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bazaarvoice solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us with quick and authentic reviews & ratings for our products - especially when the product is at the launch stage influencing the customer buying decision. This helps in getting the kick start the product needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
