Dwell time and cooling off periods are great features
What do you like best?
Dwell time is very useful for prompting action once in a venue.
Cooling off periods means that you don't spam with too many notifications.
No complaints about battery life implications.
Helpful guides for getting opt-ins.
Out of all the options this was by far the best. Pricing was a bit high before but they've now made it much more accessible. We're on their growth plan and it has everything we need.
I was really concerned about battery usage causing iOS to advise people to delete our app but this hasn't been the case. It's worked well and we just need to make sure we use it all, as they keep updating the portal with more and more features. When our team is large enough, I'm sure our dedicated data analysts and marketing professionals will have a field day with all that it has to offer - even identifying commuters.
What do you dislike?
Even with their help, getting opt-ins is tricky. And keeping people opted in to both location and notification, when iOS is particularly aggressive with prompting people to not do so. Despite this, PP is still the best geo-fence option I know out there.

Overall, happy that we switched and here to stay.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We previously used PP to prompt users to take a photo of a receipt. We now use it to prompt users to go into one of our venues when they walk past.
We have sent over 1000 notifications.
