Getting started

Sending review requests

In addition to automatic review requests through workflows and manual requests from the Contacts tab, you can also send requests directly from the Reviews section. Click the Send Review Request button and enter the necessary contact details.
Ensure that SMS and email review requests are enabled and configured in your Reputation Management Settings before sending from this section.

​
Filtering reviews

Use the filter options to view reviews based on star ratings or other categories.
Filter reviews by star rating to quickly focus on feedback with high or low ratings. Useful for identifying both satisfied customers and those whose concerns need to be addressed.
Filter reviews based on their origin — Google or Facebook. This lets you analyze customer feedback from each platform separately.
Narrow your review list to show feedback within a specific date range to track customer sentiment over time.
Choose between reviews that are marked as Spam or Not Spam. The system uses an advanced algorithm that flags potentially fraudulent or irrelevant reviews to protect your online presence.

Smart spam detection uses an advanced algorithm to identify and flag suspicious or irrelevant reviews, keeping your online reputation protected from fraudulent feedback.
Flagged reviews are held in the system for you to review. You can mark them as “Not Spam” if you determine they are genuine, giving you full control over what remains visible.
No — AI-generated replies are disabled for flagged reviews to prevent unnecessary engagement with spam.
Yes. You can unflag genuine feedback by marking it as “Not Spam” at any time, maintaining accurate and trustworthy review records.
AI-generated replies are disabled for reviews flagged as spam.

​
Handling negative reviews

Negative reviews are an opportunity to demonstrate responsiveness and build trust. Addressing them professionally often matters more to potential customers than the negative review itself.
Aim to respond to negative reviews within 24–48 hours. Acknowledge the customer’s experience, apologize where appropriate, and avoid defensive language. Keep the response concise and invite the customer to continue the conversation privately.
Include a direct contact method (phone number or email) in your response and invite the customer to reach out to resolve their concern. This shows other readers you are committed to resolution without airing details publicly.
Configure a dedicated Reviews AI agent for 1–3 star reviews to ensure every negative review receives a timely, empathetic response even outside business hours.
If you believe a review is fraudulent or from someone who was never a customer, use the Mark as spam option. The HoopAI Platform’s spam detection algorithm will evaluate it, and flagged reviews will not receive automated AI responses.
