Trustmary vs. Podium

Here’s a more in-depth analysis of what both tools can and cannot do

1. Review Collection: Automated vs. Manual Effort

  • Podium: Offers review collection through text messaging, but the setup often requires manual follow-ups and limited automation unless you pay extra.

  • Trustmary: Fully automates the process of asking for reviews at the right time with a single streamlined survey. You don’t just get reviews—you also get customer feedback that helps you improve your services.

For example, for home renovation businesses juggling multiple projects, Trustmary’s automation means you spend less time chasing reviews and more time on-site.

2. Cost-Efficiency: High Fees vs. Smart Pricing

  • Podium: Known for being expensive, with plans starting in the hundreds per month. This can quickly eat into profits for small and medium renovation firms.

  • Trustmary: Offers transparent, affordable pricing with plans designed for growing companies. You get powerful review collection and website display features at a fraction of Podium’s cost.

For companies where every dollar, pound, or euro matters, Trustmary ensures you maximize ROI without heavy overheads. With Trustmary, you can choose a monthly plan, which you can cancel at any time.

3. Website & Social Proof: Generic vs. Conversion-Optimized

  • Podium: Helps you gather reviews but offers limited tools for seamlessly embedding them on your website. Often, you’ll need developers to integrate reviews properly.

  • Trustmary: Makes it effortless to display reviews and testimonials on your website in just a few clicks. Ready-made widgets are designed to boost conversions, turning visitors into booked consultations.

Trustmary helps you showcase your craftsmanship and happy clients, making prospects more likely to choose you over competitors.

4. Beyond Reviews: Building Trust & Learning From Customers

  • Podium: Focuses mainly on reviews and messaging. While useful, it doesn’t go deeper into customer satisfaction insights.

  • Trustmary: Uses the Trustmary Method to capture both feedback and reviews. This way, you learn what clients love about your services and where you can improve.

This dual benefit means better customer experiences, more referrals, and repeat business.
