"The interface isn't the best. How everything works on the back end is confusing.""The solution is expensive in comparison to similar solutions.""The interface and the documentation could be improved. They can also include some more training resources and content like video. While setting things up, I had to search for the information quite a bit. It took me time to find the correct way to do something. The information is there, but it is sort of all over the place. They can create a better help knowledge base or help portal. It retains your email for 45 days. They can maybe increase this duration.""The price of the solution is expensive. It can improve by reducing the price.""Technical support has been slower than it was in the past, likely due to the pandemic."
