Avaliações do Yext

What I like most about this software is that it makes updating client information across listings fast and easy. Before Yext, our agency used to spend a lot of time updating hours, uploading photos, etc..now it can be done in a fraction of the time.

I also love that Yext allows us to quickly add schema to a website that auto-updates when business information changes.

I least like that the integrations with Google My Business and Facebook must be set up separately. This sometimes gets overlooked by my staff or if we have trouble gaining access from a client, it will never get done.

It would also be nice if social posting could be pushed to more than just Google My Business..for example Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. That could allow us to replace other software with Yext.

One thing that would be nice is if Yext salespeople were able to help us better monitize the software as an agency. I've done a few meetings and phonecalls to try to come up with better ways to use and sell the software to clients, but they always turn into the Yext sales person trying to get us to commit more money to Yext. I'd love to get some ideas on how other agency partners are using Yext for their clients and selling the software/service with their service packages.

I don't really have any pros about this software.

I work with a company that has an Enterprise account with YEXT, and as we struggle to learn how the system operates we must lean on support for assistance. Unfortunately, YEXT's support is almost nonexistent. I use the term "almost" because the individuals who make up the support team do make an effort to assist. But, I believe that support has almost zero knowledge of how the system operates in the first place. When I ask specific questions about pushing information from one location to another I'm presented with articles and confusing terminology that gets me nowhere. You must schedule a 30 minute window for support calls, which usually leave me with more questions than I had in the first place.

I liked how easy it was to implement. Our team manages the online listings for over 300 small businesses.

I wish it worked with more directories.

Super easy to use. Accounts on many external platforms can be easily integrated into Yext, which helps ensure information is always consistent and saves time.

The interface can feel clunky in certain areas, though not as much in others.

Ease of updating data on a single platform that pushes out to numerous listings in one update.

We have encountered some bugs in the system that needed to be addressed. This slowed the process of getting some items completed as quickly as we would of liked. The Yext support team has been helpful in resolving the issues.

The idea behind Yext is solid. It's goal is to help companies manage their listings across search engines and online directories

1. Expensive
2. For the price, I just don't see the value, the vast majority of the search engines and directories they list are useless, especially for small businesses.
3. I don't believe their service can really provide a SEO boost. There are too many factors to consider for SEO these days and using Yext for SEO

It's nice to have everything on one dashboard and be able to make changes at once, but you pay a really high premium to get that.

If you don't keep paying the monthly, then you lose access to all our citations. This is ridiculous.

The tool is easy to use and the have a large staff.

They claim your listings quickly, but you don't own them. When you cancel, they take down all of your listings. There are tools out there that cost less and deliver better results.

Having a single "source of truth" knowledge base that is pushed to many sites and search engines along with hosted store pages with schema markup have increased search engine results and organic traffic. The API has allowed multiple integrations, making this a good hub for all our store data.

The social posting tools aren't completely robust--can't boost posts through the platform or have videos natively play. It also takes a long time for them to complete design change requests on pages--you have to design everything and then have them try to copy it.

The tracking of services for locations and the locations themselves are easily trackable. Eliminating and suppressing duplicate citations and incorrect publisher suggestions is absolutely easier than tracking any other way.

Support can take some time to provide answers. For the most part, this hasn't been a huge issue, but at times it was. This is not intuitive software and takes some time to get familiar with enough for basic use. Another big negative is that if we were ever to stop using Yext, the citations we purchased through Yext will be "unlocked" and basically lost. This seems like poor business in that you pay for an item so you expect to be able to keep that item unless you decide to sell the item.

This is a widely used and fairly easy to use software that allows us to manage listings for hundreds of clients. They also allow us to integrate their software with ours.

It can be very buggy at times. Sometimes things will connect and sometimes things will not connect.

This software is wonderful we use this daily at my job and yext is a service that will direct your business to 80 plus directories. We are able to go right into yext and update a address phone number website and it will automatically update it on the listings.

I do not feel like there are any cons this software actually helps me do my job better and it is a efficient way

Being able to manage 60 plus local directories from what one dashboard. I also liked the intelligent search feature as well as knowledge tags. They also create listings for Amazon Alexa, Waze, and Apple Maps.

Does a great job getting the lion's share of false or duplicate listings but occasionally will miss some listings if there are more than 3 errors in the listing. Updates to Yahoo! & Bing can take a lot longer to populate compared to the rest of the listings in the network

I love the ability to control multiple entities from one source of truth that then populates out to the various networks/data aggregators.

The review platform could use some revamping/improvements.

About five years ago they had a fantastic sales person who provided tons of support and made sure things were quickly resolved.

Once you stop paying for the service, listing are reversed. I had many conversations with support about this but they just wanted more money and continue paying to fix the issue.

I went through the Yext Certified Partner training and test, and found them very informative and beneficial. The team took the time to schedule one-on-one calls for training, and quickly responded to any questions I had. The customer service is wonderful and reason enough to use Yext.

I wish it were more all-inclusive. Or at least have just a few packages. It felt like any time I asked if I could do 'X' or 'Y' the response was to buy an add on product.

Great customer service, great and easy to use software that quickly and effectively gets client information published on the web.

Is not consistent and you are held hostage to paying the monthly fee. Once you stop paying all the work you have put into making sure all client information is published is gone.

This is an essential tool we use for the majority of our clients. Great for keeping business information consistent across the myriad of online listings.

No real cons to speak of beyond a couple of technical errors, which were quickly resolved by Yext support.

The title says it all- Yext seemingly has a monopoly on local listings, making it mandatory for local SEO efforts. That said, it is quite effective at what it does.

The pricing is a little prohibitive and we'd like to see some discounted options for bundle purchases. Otherwise it's fine.

The network and easy to use system helps me allow clients to be found locally instead of having to register with 70+ sites.

I would like an easier to export a set of analytics with all the key metrics to be easily shown. I can see much more on the back end but lose the interactivity when I export to PDF.

The Yext tool allowed us to efficiently provide directory/profile/listing services to our clients, without having to manually submit each individually. It saves us time and provides a better service.

Sometimes the features marketed don't align with expectations/results.

- Easy to add locations
- Excellent interface usability and aesthetics
- Great Customer Service

- Sometimes the verification process can be difficult.
