My Go-To Local Business Listing Software
Comments: Yext has made it easy for us to generate income from a very necessary action that small businesses and big businesses alike absolutely need done. We get results in just hours where some other listing software can take days to update listings.
Pros:
We've seen the best results for our clients when using Yext to update/correct their business listing across the web. It's an easy to use interface that helps you keep on top of all listings and finds the issues for you. This has saved us countless hours of manual searches.
Cons:
The cost makes it a bit difficult to sign up some clients that do not have a big budget.

Effective and Easy to Use
Comments: Overall I like their service. Price is kind of high, but their service is worth it. Their support is really great and responsive too
Pros:
It is easy to add locations, citations are built VERY quickly, customization abilities for each location are really nice too
Cons:
Kind of expensive - and your citations revert back when you stop your subscription (but I get that part)

Customer Service Is Horrible
Comments: Overall, for the money and the net result, YEXT is not worth investing in.
Pros:
I don't really have any pros about this software.
Cons:
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.

588% Increase in Listings Reach
Comments: With Yext, we saw a 288% increase in Google Search queries, a 320% increase in Google Customer Actions, and a 588% increase in listings reach.
Pros:
Before Yext, our listing distribution software took weeks to update directories. Now with Yext, I can make big changes within hours. Its duplicate suppression is powerful, its analytics tools are extremely useful, and their customer support is second to none.
Cons:
There is troubleshooting with every product you use. There have been a few issues in our account with connections and categories, but the Yext team was quick to help us find a solution. It's

A Powerful (Albeit Expensive) Option for Listings Management
Comments: Unified listings and review management has helped improve efficiency and ensure that all of our client data is correct, up-to-date and on the most important sites.
Pros:
Customer service/support is best-in-class for this type of platform. The platform links up with some relatively important sites and services, and I really like how well the knowledge graph works to unify data across all of them. Duplicate suppression is top-notch, and everything is explained clearly for novices to power users.
Cons:
Like any platform of this type, Yext's portfolio of linked sites does include some relatively low-quality options (i.e., some listing sites that aren't applicable to most industries).
