Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the staff for their helpfulness, expertise, and friendly demeanor, often highlighting their willingness to go above and beyond. The customer service is frequently described as excellent, with many people appreciating the quick responses, clear communication, and personalized support, including tailored guidance and videos. The service itself is considered brilliant, efficient, and easy to use, making processes smoother for businesses and clients alike. Reviewers also commend the technology for its user-friendliness, continuous evolution, and valuable features that enhance workflow. However, some customers were not happy with the technology, describing it as basic, behind on innovation, and having a horrendous user experience and UI. A few other people also felt that the system lacked specific filtering options for searches, which would save time and improve sales planning. Additionally, some reviewers mentioned experiencing frequent changes in customer success managers, making it harder to build continuity.

We have worked with Firefish for many years and have always been impressed. It's a great system for recruitment and the Firefish team are brilliant, always so quick to help and knowledgeable - these guys know their stuff! We have recently had the pleasure of working with Wendy McDougall on a Playbook that has already improved our way of working and productivity.

The experience was unbelievable

The experience was unbelievable.
Through 3 different meetings we were assured that the software would do what we needed it to do.
Fast forward 4 weeks and through a training session we inadvertently discovered that it couldn’t.
Alan McFadden denied telling 3 different audiences on 3 different occasions that the software would integrate as needed.
He also said that they recorded all their meetings.
Another ‘not true’
The CEO is only interested in money. Not in reputation as she refused to refund us, having admitted that Alan lied about the recording of meetings.
Stay away.

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you for this feedback.

We were really troubled to hear about your negative experience and so looked into the case.

We were pleased to learn that the issue you mentioned was solved promptly with your ex-manager, who remains a happy Firefish customer today.

Kind Regards,

The Firefish Team

I had Firefish since starting up my…

I had Firefish since starting up my business 3 years ago and always paid annually upfront. I asked for some understanding, to wait a short delay for the next annual payment due to COVID-19 business and cash flow wasn't great. I still had 4 weeks running of my current year and as I pay upfront I'm not in arrears. They advised they couldn't cancel payment but instead switch me to monthly which I wasn't keen to do. I then asked to cancel and they advised that I couldn't as I have to give 60 days notice, even though I have paid upfront. Instead, pay a couple of months then cancel to ensure I get my data why do this when the customer has paid a full year upfront. I refused. The account cancelled down and they deleted 3 years worth of data. Horrendous. The worst thing was the customer service, they weren't helpful, sympathetic AT ALL. It was a bit like gave us your money. The Website attached to the CRM itself is awful. Furthermore, the fallacy of this customer centric approach couldn't be further from the truth, the only time I heard from them in 3 years was the email to tell me the £1200 was being collected.
