Pocketloom vs Podium

Podium bolts messaging and reviews onto your site. We are the site, and the rest of it.

A layer on top will not fix the site underneath.

Podium is strong at texting, reviews and payments, layered onto the site you already run. But it does not build or improve that site, and at around $399 a month it is priced for established businesses.

Your site is what does the selling and makes the first impression. If that is the weak link, a comms layer on top only treats the symptom. We build the site and the customer system as one, from $149 a month, and the full agent team is $299.

A layer on top, or the whole thing.

Podium Pocketloom
What it is A messaging and reviews layer on top of your existing site. The website, the Customer Hub, reviews and the agent team, connected.
