Where Colvy wins

Key areas where Colvy outperforms Podium for Australian 🇦🇺 businesses.

One conversation, nothing siloed

Every channel lives in one thread per customer — SMS, calls, email, WhatsApp, Instagram, reviews. Not separate inboxes.

WISMO automation

Colvy AI handles “where is my order?” automatically — checks tracking and replies. Podium has no WISMO automation.

AI that takes action

Colvy AI creates orders, processes refunds and applies discounts — not just conversational replies.

Australian 🇦🇺 support team

Talk to real humans in Australia. Podium routes support through overseas teams with timezone delays.

Save thousands a year

No long contracts, no hidden fees, cancel anytime — priced for SMBs, not enterprise.

Better review results

AI-powered review requests hit at exactly the right moment to grow your Google rating.
