demeterrr supports local reply management for all review records, with platform sync where available.

01

Reply Actions

From a review card, you can:

  • Add a reply
  • Edit a reply
  • Delete a reply
02

Sync Behavior

For Google reviews with valid GBP identifiers:

  • New and updated replies attempt push to Google
  • Delete attempts remove the Google-side reply as well

For platforms without reply sync support, replies are stored locally.

03

Suggested Reply

If a suggested reply is available, you can use it as a starting point and edit before posting.

04

Audit Trail

Reply create/update/delete actions write audit events for traceability.

05

Troubleshooting

Reply saved but not synced

Likely causes:

  • Platform does not support reply sync
  • Google review lacks GBP linkage
  • Token/connectivity issues during sync call

Cannot delete synced reply

Local delete still succeeds, but platform delete may fail if connectivity/token checks fail.

06

Response Quality Tips

  • acknowledge specifics from the review, not generic text
  • keep tone professional and concise
  • avoid sharing private customer details in public replies
  • escalate sensitive disputes to offline follow-up when needed
