November has been a huge month for Respond and our incredible customers! Though the holidays are just around the corner we’re continuing to improve the product and experience at a blistering pace.
Working smarter: Automation features in Respond
One of the most powerful new features to come to Respond are automations. Respond can now auto-tag, route, assign and filter your conversations based on a number of criteria including keywords, phrases, language and a whole lot more.
With automations, we’re helping teams separate their support and marketing conversations, assign items to the right team member and even filter out things like auto-status updates and spam.
Now available: HelpScout Docs integration
We’re huge fans of HelpScout. So it only felt natural to bring these products even closer together. You can now include a HelpScout article directly into your Respond replies:
And we’re just getting started. We’ve got a ton more planned for HelpScout (and other helpdesks) too. Stay tuned!
Better, easier-to-read reporting features
We’ve released a brand new reporting experience with the key metrics you need front and center. We’ve also added new data export options and a tag reporting feature:
For that one customer or conversation you need to find: Better search
It’s now easier than ever to find a past conversation with a customer. Search by customer name or social username to quickly find conversations across Twitter and Facebook:
Bulk Editing
Maybe a new article just went viral or you’ve just launched a new product. Either way you can use our new bulk editing feature to select multiple conversations and quickly tag, assign, or close all in one fell swoop:

Note: This is the quarterly update sent to Buffer shareholders, with a bit of added information for context. We share these updates transparently as a part of our ‘default to transparency ’ value.

Editor’s Note: Thanks for checking out this post! We’ve released our updated 2021 pay analysis here. You can’t improve something if you don’t know that it needs to be improved. That was very true for us four years ago when we first started looking into equal pay at Buffer. We have long used a salary formula to determine all of our salaries – the same role in the same part of the world receives the same salary. That m
Ever since the world got turned upside down by COVID-19, it’s been “business as unusual” for everyone – Buffer included. I sent this update out to Buffer’s investors one week ago. I hesitated on whether to share it more widely, as I know a lot of companies have been impacted more severely in these times. That said, I believe it makes sense to lean into our company value of transparency, since there may be some companies this could help, and it shows Buffer customers that we will be around beyon
