FAQs
“We’re using Birdeye for reviews. Why switch if it’s working for us?”
If Birdeye is working well for you—great. Some networks do succeed with it.
But ask yourself:
- Are all your locations using it consistently, or just some?
- Are your social publishing tools working reliably, or struggling with Reels/live video?
- Did your onboarding go smoothly, or did it take months of troubleshooting?
- Can you track which locations are actively marketing, or just reputation metrics?
The consistency question:
If you’re in the successful group → You’re probably fine staying
If you’re experiencing variable results → PromoRepublic eliminates that uncertainty
With PromoRepublic:
- Reputation management (reviews, listings)
- PLUS native social publishing that works consistently
- PLUS unified activation tracking across all locations
- PLUS predictable 30-day onboarding for every network
- Single login, unified dashboard, 75-80% adoption every time
Why switch from Birdeye mid-contract?
Three reasons networks make the switch:
- Can’t afford unpredictable results at scale
When you’re managing 200+ locations, you need tools that deliver consistent results across every location—not “works great for location A, breaks constantly for location B.”
What some Birdeye users report:
“Social tools don’t post Reels or live videos. They promised 3× weekly posting—they haven’t been doing this.”
With PromoRepublic: Native social tools work the same way across all 110+ networks. No variance, no broken promises.
- Third-party integration breakage creates operational uncertainty
What some Birdeye users report:
“Many tools are third-party integrations. When issues arose, BirdEye was unable to resolve them directly and had to contact third parties.”
With PromoRepublic: Core tools built in-house. When something needs fixing, we fix it directly—24/5 tech support, no third-party delays.
- Can’t track activation consistently across locations
Birdeye shows reputation metrics (review volume, sentiment). But you can’t see which locations are actively marketing vs. which have gone dormant.
With PromoRepublic: Full adoption visibility across every location. 75-80% adoption consistently means you know the platform works—now you can focus on execution, not troubleshooting tool variance.
What about switching complexity? Won’t migration introduce new inconsistency?
No. We use the same proven migration process for every network.
Why our migration is consistent:
We’ve done this 110+ times. Same process, same team, same results—whether you’re migrating 20 locations or 1,100+.
White-glove migration (every time):
- Review history import from Birdeye
- Listings transfer (all 125+ directories synced)
- Social calendar setup with brand-safe templates
- Analytics integration (GA4, CRM, POS, BI)
- Training and onboarding for HQ + local teams
- Proactive monitoring until 75-80% adoption achieved
Timeline: 30 days to full activation—predictably, every network
Our team walks you through every step using the same proven process. You’re not a guinea pig—you’re getting the same migration that worked for 110+ other networks.
How is PromoRepublic different from Birdeye?
Birdeye: Reputation-first platform with variable execution experiences
PromoRepublic: Marketing activation platform with consistent, predictable results
The structural difference:
Birdeye helps you manage customer feedback and reviews (with mixed execution experiences).
PromoRepublic helps you activate local marketing AND manage reputation (with consistent execution across all networks).
Why consistency matters:
Managing reputation ≠ driving predictable local growth.
Driving predictable local growth = consistent social execution + reliable review management + accurate listings + measurable activation.
PromoRepublic delivers all four—consistently, across 110+ networks.
The experience difference:
Birdeye (from verified reviews):
- Mixed experiences: some praise it, others struggle
- “Social tools don’t post Reels or live videos” (some users)
- “200 hours of painful onboarding” (some agencies)
- “Third-party integrations break” (some networks)
- “Almost impossible to cancel” (some users)
- 40-50% adoption with high variance
PromoRepublic (from 110+ networks):
- Consistent experiences across all networks
- Native social publishing—all formats work reliably
- 30-day streamlined activation every time
- Built in-house—no third-party breakage
- Transparent contracts and cancellation process
- 75-80% adoption consistently
The outcome difference:
With Birdeye: Good reputation management for some, frustrating experiences for others, unpredictable adoption
With PromoRepublic: Good reputation management + working social tools + predictable activation + consistent 75-80% adoption
Can we pilot before switching our whole network?
Yes. And the pilot will show you exactly what the full rollout will look like—because we deliver the same results every time.
Most networks start with:
- One brand or region
- 20-100 locations
- 60-90 days
What you’ll prove:
- Consistent activation: Same 30-day process you’ll get at full scale
- Reliable tools: Social, reviews, listings work the same across all pilot locations
- Predictable adoption: 75-80% adoption in pilot = 75-80% adoption at scale
- Unified insights: Track activation across all pilot locations consistently
Then roll out to full network with confidence—knowing you’ll get the same results.
The pilot isn’t a “best case scenario”—it’s exactly what you’ll get across your entire network.
Which platform drives predictable same-store growth?
The one that delivers consistent 75-80% activation across every location, not variable results that depend on which version of the platform you get.
Birdeye gives you reputation management (with mixed execution experiences)
PromoRepublic gives you reputation management + marketing activation (with consistent results)
Reputation management is important.
But predictable local marketing execution is what drives same-store growth.
The proof:
Threshold Brands needed consistency across multiple franchise concepts:
- Technical reliability: No more repeated technical issues—tools work the same way every time
- Strong partnership: “We never feel as if we’re out on an island”
- High adoption: 75-80% adoption driving franchise success consistently
- Predictable results: Same execution standards across all brands
Because variable results don’t scale. Consistent activation does.
