What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

We have had a great experience utilizing Bazaarvoice for sampling campaigns, including the social commerce integration to garner UGC. We run campaigns roughly monthly. The communication with the support team is easy, and they always respond in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

Previously, all campaigns were managed through email threads, which made it difficult to keep track of overlapping timelines. However, Bazaarvoice just launched a new dashboard where all campaigns can be initiated and monitored. It is much easier to track the progress and review the content that has been submitted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

BazaarVoice allows us to generate reviews for new product launches. We are able to have a higher quantity and quality of reviews to build consumer confidence in a product. BazaarVoice also provides user-generated content for us to utilize on our social platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

I like that we are able to share our reviews with our customers on our own website, but also across a variety of our third party retail partners. It makes the process seamless for us, and a better experience for the customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

It is definitely costly to use, and you really need to also invest in reviews generation. The team was sometimes hard to reach when getting everything launched, but things have been good since then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solved the problem of getting more reviews on our third party retailer sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Really.. nothing. Some CS reps are helpful. Tech onboarding needs so much work though. Just awful. Even my seasoned developer has had issues understanding what's needed and that really confusing knowledgebase. No thanks.. Begging my company to change providers. Customer support is okay, but not if it's technical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

Knowledgebase is so confusing. Technical onboarding is not helpful. Onboarding a new product takes months longer than planned... and we've only got a few products. I can't imagine how bad it is for companies with hundreds of products. I would never recommend BV to anyone. Also, the interface is basically from 1998. It's not user-friendly, it's clunky and we've been asking for updates for years and it takes them years to update anything. They had a popup on their login page from 3 years ago. Reporting is sad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

They are displaying our reviews on a reviews page. Outside of that, it's so much trouble to even get to that point, that it's ridiculous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Laura Georghiou of Bazaarvoice

We're genuinely sorry to hear about the issues you've encountered, and we want to make things right. To better assist you, we kindly ask you to email: programs@bazaarvoice.com, as your review is anonymous. We can then identify your account and provide the appropriate support.

Your satisfaction is our priority, and we look forward to helping you once we can connect your feedback with your account information.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

Seamless ability to target and fulfill large amount of sampling for reviews and high-percentage of participation for our reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

A bit expensive. All of our syndicated reviews are artificially lower because star-only reviews are not syndicated, only ones with text and images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Syndicating reviews with major retailers so that we automatically populate healthy reviews. This helps with on-boarding new customers and pitching new deals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

The only upside to Bazaarvoice is their syndication with major retailers, the rest is pretty unable from a customer experience perspective. We have tried to get help from their team and if they are not selling you something they don't seem to care. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

A long list but the major downsides to this platform is cost $$$, customer service, a clunky and overbuilt interface. It is a shame that this is one of the only options for eCommerce retailers that want to syndicate reviews from Target. I wish there was a better solution out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Bazzarvoice is helping with online credibility from outside retailers to our eccom site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bazaarvoice?

The syndication network is fantastic, accounting for around 60% of our key retail partners. The syndication is easy to use, you just need to ensure products are set-up correctly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bazaarvoice?

The insights and data access could be improved. The set-up could be made user friendly to make it easier to find and extract the correct data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Bazaarvoice are helping us to generate reviews through sampling, and then increasing the volume at retail through the syndication network Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Laura Georghiou of Bazaarvoice
