Podium’s newer "Agentic AI" sub-scores, autonomous task execution, adaptive learning, cross-system integration, land between 51% and 58% on G2, well below its own AI Text Generation score. Podium markets breadth, but its own review data shows the deeper AI capabilities are still early.
5.0 out of 5.0 on G2.

"Common feedback with other platforms was ‘my rep is constantly changing’ and ‘they are slow to respond’ but this is not the case with Liftify."
"Podium’s tech support is not always the quickest to provide answers and neither is our customer success rep... we’ve had a variety of customer success reps. One point of contact would be nice."
Pricing built around your needs.
Every portfolio is different, so your price is too. Liftify builds a custom, transparent quote around your footprint and the outcomes you’re after, and no surprise add-on fees.
