FAQs for Home Services

How do I collect testimonials from homeowners who aren't tech-savvy?
VideoTestimonials is designed for simplicity — customers tap a link, see clear prompts, and press record. No app download, no account creation. If a customer prefers, they can leave a text testimonial instead.
Can I include before-and-after photos with video testimonials?
The form takes a video or written testimonial plus an optional profile photo, not job photos. Put your before-and-after photos on the service page beside the testimonial widget, or ask the homeowner to show the finished work on camera while they record.
How does Bonjoro price testimonials?
Free for 10 video testimonials, Pro $29/month ($20 billed annually) for 250, Growth $79 for 2,500 and Agency $179 for unlimited. Text testimonials are unlimited throughout and there is no recording time limit on any plan. Prices checked on bonjoro.com in October 2026.
Is Bonjoro cheaper?
No: Pro is $29 against $24 month to month, and $20 against $20 when both are paid yearly. 250 video testimonials is generous. The difference is what happens after collection: no image studio, no video editing and no review importing.
Bonjoro has no video time limit — is that better?
It is a genuine advantage of theirs and worth saying plainly. Length here is a per-form setting rather than unlimited by default, which suits keeping testimonials short, but Bonjoro imposes no ceiling at all.
