A link shortener and CTA system that makes sense
Enjoyable. Link shorteners and CTA tools try to overcomplicate things. TagOn is refreshing and the first one I actually didn't mind using!
Pros
I've used a lot of link shorteners, but most of them are difficult to figure out and set up. TagOn was the first one that just made sense. The interface is fast and easy, and they don't try to complement things. Yet, TagOn has all the features I've seen in other tools, and even some unique items. But my favorite part is that it's just dead simple to use, and the tutorials are great!
Oh, and the ability to add your own custom scripts to a shortened link? AMAZING. To think you can add your own chat box or other functions on top of a link you share to almost any site is just slick.
Cons
Honestly, I can't think of much. If anything, I would say they could use some tooltips on some of the more advanced features. While the core of TagOn is dead simple to use, as are the majority of features, there are a few things that could have been explained, like whether to use the TagOn container when adding custom scripts. But that's a minor gripe, and easily solved by searching the documentation.

Awesome SaaS!
The beginning was a little rocky but now it's much better. From the stability to the features it's become a rock solid SaaS.
Customer support is top notch!
Pros
Every day it's improving with new features coming out. The devs broke new ground with some of their features for a URL shortener and continue to do so.
I love this software and it's one of my favorites.
Cons
No chrome plugin. Also needs better analytics such as referrers.

Interesting Digital Marketing Tool

TagOn is Awesome!
TagOn has really changed how I am able to engage with my target audience. Before all I could do was share a link and add a retargeting pixel, now I can do that PLUS add any custom script I want to engage my audience just as if they were on my own website or landing page!
Pros
TagOn really separates itself from any other competitor making itself very unique. Allowing custom scripts to be added to the links you can share means I can add live chat or a callback widget from BounceHelp in the link to engage my target audience more effectively.
Cons
No cons so far, the software has been amazing with a great supportive team behind it.

A step further in linksharing plus conversion rate reports
I plan the use for sharing and boosting posts on social media. And later be able to track results, retaget and scale campaigns.
Pros
I was initially attracted to Tagon because you can add custom scripts (for example if you have an script of your own chat or chatboot, woohoo discounts wheel, etc). So you can personalize the conversation, add a link with UTM parameters and measure success. And also I liked because it is able to create short links for sites as Magento stores with different technology than wordpress, while other similar products do not do it. Even when still it does not do it pefectly at this time (november 2018). A good feature that I specially liked is the addition of conversion rates statistics, so that you can measure how successful are you driving people to the call to action you have selected. I think it s a feature still on proccess of implementation.
Cons
It is a product that is being developed, and even when that is good, some features miss a bit of usability and pefection. The good point is that you can find exciting new features are wide range of call to actions and an editor to make your owns.

The coolest link shortener features on the market
Pros
The ability to insert any type of website widget on any website. Via drop-in scripts, you can put a chatbot, a survey, a quiz, a video, etc on a website that you don't control.
Cons
It's still relatively young, so some important features are still in development as of Aug 1, 2018. However, new features are rolling out quickly so these will be done very soon.

Amazing URL shortener that allows me to enhance the links that I share
I use TagOn to shorten any links that I share so that I can retarget and communicate with my visitors even when they are on other people's websites.
Pros
I like the fact that able to use any marketing embed scripts that I use on my website on any links to any websites that I share.
I can use my live chat widget and optin form on the article that I share on my Facebook page to communicate with my visitors and turn them into leads.
Cons
This software needs better way to organize all the links and search for them.
Also it needs to have more useful statistics.
Response from Boost
Thank you for your great feedback.

URL shortener plus conversion rate reports
Very pleased with the investment
Pros
Every day it's improving with new features coming out, you can add custom scripts
Great founder who is very responsive
Cons
System can be a wee bit sluggish at times (but hey, its new and a developing/growing Co.)
Better Mgt/organisation of links would be desirable and the UI is a bit confusing, needs a better UX design

Use TagOn if you need some "magic"
I have not used it extensively yet but I love the fact that I can share interesting content with my stuff "on it" without the need to create the content itself.
Pros
I think the biggest pro is that you can embed certain scripts in its container which makes it possible to display e.g. your chatbot when sharing a 3rd party page.
It is also great that you can use your own domain. It would be even better if somehow it could display the original URL in the address bar of the browser.
Cons
It takes a little time to get familiar with the UI. It is not bad at all but could be a little more intuitive.
Also, a better-organized dashboard and more analytics would help.

A very useful tool
Pros
Personally, I see at home two great uses:
- When linking someone else's content, I don't lose touch with a potential customer
- The possibility of presenting additional functionalities added to someone else's website
Cons
There are infinite possibilities - I learned a lot from videos promoting this product. There are still too few of these films and learning materials.

Links Orner with call to actions
I wanted to be able to put CTAs onto links that I shared of other people's content
Pros
Tag on offers a number of unique features to go along with its link shortening service. The feature that is most important to me is the call to action feature. With this feature you can share links to other people's content and still get a chance to get new readers onto your list through the CTAs.
Cons
The worst thing about this software is it's not the easiest software to use. To set some of the features up properly it can take a good amount of time to get them configured correctly.

Share any links as if sending people to your own website
Simple Interface > Easy to Use > Powerful tool
Pros
You can add almost any marketing scripts to links - this means you can embed quizzes, chat boxes, email optins and more on any website link that you share.
Cons
No real cons so far - but it would be great if there was a better way to manage and organize links - this would be noticeable when you have loads of links.
