Google Business Profile

Had a booking for 8 and still waited 40 minutes for a table. Food was great once it came, but nobody told us what was going on.

Example reply · Google Business Profile

Thanks for coming in, and we’re glad the food was worth it. A 40-minute wait with a booking isn’t good enough, and not hearing from us made it worse. We’ve passed this to the outlet team, and we’d love the chance to seat you on time next visit.

  • Long wait despite booking
  • Liked the food
  • Goes out on its own

With your systems connected, OpenDots can also alert the outlet manager about waits on booked tables at this location.

  • Always a person

    Food safety, legal threats, journalists and media, abuse and VIP accounts always go to your team, whatever your settings.

  • No promises OpenDots can’t check

    Replies never invent refunds, dates or policies. When a review needs one of those, the reply points the customer to the right private channel.

  • Critical reviews flagged

    A critical review reaches your team within minutes, with a draft reply ready.

You hand over one kind of review at a time. OpenDots never decides that for itself.

Good replies

How to reply to Google reviews so customers notice.

OpenDots follows these rules in every reply, and your team can use them today.

  • Answer every review, good and bad.

    Silence under a 1-star review reads like agreement, and a thank-you under a 5-star one costs nothing.

  • Reply to what they actually said.

    Mention the dish, the wait or the person they wrote about. A reply that could sit under any review convinces nobody.

  • Apologize once, then give a next step.

    One clear sorry, then what happens now: who to contact, or what the outlet is changing.

  • Keep personal details out of public replies.

    Never ask for an order number or phone number there. Point people to a private channel.

  • Write in their language.

    A Hindi review deserves a Hindi reply, and Hinglish deserves Hinglish.

  • Reply while they still care.

    The sooner you answer, the more likely the reviewer is to read it, and so is the next customer deciding where to go.

FAQ

Questions about Google reviews.

Anything else? Write to hello@opendots.ai.

What is a Google review management tool?

A Google review management tool is software that brings the reviews from all your Google Business Profiles into one place and helps you answer them. A good one writes a reply for each review instead of pasting templates, lets your team approve sensitive replies, flags critical reviews quickly and shows how each location is doing. OpenDots does all of this, and covers your Google Play and App Store reviews in the same place.

Can I manage Google reviews for multiple locations in one place?

Yes. OpenDots brings every location’s Google reviews into one place, from a single outlet to the whole chain, and answers them in one voice. You can see which locations need attention first and whether an issue is chain-wide or local to one outlet.

Can OpenDots reply to Google reviews automatically?

Yes. For each kind of review you decide whether the reply goes out on its own or waits for your team’s approval. Most brands let OpenDots answer praise on its own; food safety complaints, legal threats, journalists and abuse always go to your team, with a draft ready.

Will AI replies to Google reviews sound generic?

Not when OpenDots writes each reply for the review. OpenDots answers what that customer said, in their language and in your brand’s voice, and no two replies read the same. In BrightLocal’s 2026 survey, 89% of US consumers expected businesses to respond to reviews, and half said generic, templated replies put them off.

What does OpenDots need to start answering our Google reviews?

Your Google Business Profile account, which you connect on a short call. OpenDots doesn’t need your order, payment or support systems, so replies go live from day two.

Which languages does OpenDots reply in?

More than 30, including Hindi and Hinglish. OpenDots detects the language automatically. Each reviewer gets a reply in the language and script they wrote in.

How quickly does OpenDots answer Google reviews?

Within minutes, around the clock. Across all channels, OpenDots’ average response time is under 9 minutes.

Does replying to Google reviews help a business?

It tends to. SOCi found in 2022 that businesses answering every Google review converted 16.4% more often than those answering none, counting calls, website clicks and direction requests.

How much does OpenDots cost?

Your first month is free, and our team sets OpenDots up with yours. After that, pricing depends on the volume of reviews and the channels you use. Write to hello@opendots.ai for a quote.
