Terrible unethical company
Terrible company that takes official family obituaries and then creates their own unauthorized obituaries asking for donations. They created an unauthorized obituary with the incorrect address for the reception. I went to their website to have this unauthorized obit taken down. The website says it'll take up to 3 days to take it down which will be after the funeral. For a company to prey on grieving families is despicable.

Hi,
Echovita doesn't ask for donations, nor do we accept them. All removal requests have already been approved from yesterday. We say it can take up to 3 days, as it depends which day and time the removal request is submitted, but typically they are approved within 24 hours. When obituaries are posted on the internet, we further share the basic facts only in a death notice format to inform society of who has passed away. We organize all obituaries and death notices by city, so that people can see who passed away daily in selected cities of their choice with a free subscription. We do this in an effort to create as much support as possible for families. People can share their condolences for free with the family via email or social media. Families can post full obituaries on our website for free or submit the full obituary to be shared by us and replace the pre-existing death notice. Families can then claim the obituary with proper proof, such as a photo of the death certificate to receive money raised through sales or donate it towards a charity of their choosing. Pictures can be posted to create a memorial page for free by friends and family. Any modifications, corrections, or requests for removal by the family or their representative are completed immediately upon receiving notification. We only have the best intentions and are truly sorry for your loss.
They don't even deserve one star, the vultures!
I wouldn't even give them one star if offered the option! My dad died 5 days ago, & these vultures swooped in & totally butchered the obit, & excluded my husband, & all of my dad's grandchildren, among other things. The REAL obit was written by my mom, & is beautiful & really honors my dad's memory. I contacted Echovita to remove the obit (I admit I used some strong words--no bad words though--not my style), & we shall see where it goes from here. I literally felt sick to my stomach when I found my dad's inaccurate, unauthorized obit on there. If I have my way, they will not make ONE RED CENT off of my father's death. This should NOT be legal what they do. One day they will give an account before their Maker.

Hi Lara,
We received approved your removal request for the obituary this morning.

The Obituary you have done for a Matthew Zacamy needs to be taken down from the obituaries of Freeport page on Facebook. His family NEVER authorized it, nor what it said. They are currently trying to write up one that they want to share with other family and friends.

This Company strikes again with scams
This company has yet stole another information and is attempting to sell "service" for loved one that has passed away. We did not even give permission or let Echovita post the orbits. She has passed away in 2020. Do not support or donate money to this company. One quick look with search engine shows that it's not the first time Echovita has done this.

Hi Gladyn,
As reported in the media, Echovita operates in full compliance with the law. We are a Canadian organization that centralizes, aggregates, and amplifies publicly available obituaries to inform the general public of a passing. Our mission is to make public information more easily accessible, free of charge.
Similarly to a funeral home's offerings, a loved one can send flowers to the funeral home on their behalf or purchase other services in memory of the deceased: it is up to them to choose what suits them best. We are particularly sensitive to the wishes and requests made by friends and families of a deceased. Therefore, it is possible for them to request changes to an obituary published, remove the obituary or even publish the obituary themselves.
Please consult the FAQ page of our website for the most frequently asked questions about our services.
Have a nice day,

Ma soeur et moi avons fait chacune une…
Ma soeur et moi avons fait chacune une commande de fleurs pour les mêmes funérailles à la même adresse sur leur site d'avis de décès. La commande de ma soeur a été confirmé et livré. Pour ma part, j'ai reçu un courriel en anglais me demandant de donné un autre adresse car il n'était pas possible de livrer à cette endroit. J'ai du communiqué avec eux. Le service à la clientèle est seulement en anglais. Donc j'ai demandé à ma soeur de communiquer avec eux car je ne parle pas très bien anglais. La personne a refusé de parler avec elle puisqu'elle n'était pas la personne qui avait fait la commande. Ma soeur a expliqué que je ne parlait pas anglais mais qu'elle avait le numéro de commande et nous avions le même nom de famille. La personne a refusé de lui parler et lui a raccroché la ligne au nez. Aucune possibilité pour moi de faire livrer des fleurs. J'ai envoyé un courriel leur demandant d'annuler ma commande. Une journée plus tard, j'ai reçu confirmation du remboursement de ma commande dans les 4 jours. Je ne peux pas comprendre la situation, à part, que l'adresse de ma soeur est en Ontario et que la mienne est au Québec. C'est la seule différence.

A disgusting scam using deceased loved ones to make money
Have not asked our permission to list the obituaries for our family members and collecting donations for their own monetary gain. Hopefully a lawsuit comes out against this company, and they go defunct for their disgrace against those who have passed.

Echovita Obituaries
Echovita Obituaries
It is a shame that one cannot give 0 starts for a rating because this company deserves no better. This sentiment, and my opinion of this company, mirrors the experience and the opinions of many other individuals who have been affected by the practices of Echovita as you can see by reading other reviews of the company.
Essentially, they post obituaries completely unauthorized by the families of the deceased on their web site. The obituary is re-written from the official obituaries posted by the responsible funeral home, presumably to circumvent copyright infringement violations, and peppered with other family information such as identities, etc. garnered from internet sources. In our case some of this information in the obituary they posted was erroneous, and specific names were published without our permission.
The position of the company, as articulated in their responses to numerous complaints online, and in their specific response to my demand that the obituary in question be removed, is that they are serving a public good by communicating information. However, their unauthorized obituaries are completely superfluous. The information is already communicated in the family-authorized original obituary posted by the funeral home and readily available to all on the internet.
If the purpose of the company was to do a public good and communicate information, they should simply seek permission from the affected family in writing before posting the obituary, or even better, ask the bereaved family to review the obituary for content and accuracy before publishing it. This would not seem to be an excessive burden. They do not do this! Rather, it is my opinion, and that of many others who have shared in my family’s experience as noted in their reviews, that the purpose of Echovita’ s obituaries is to sell flowers and other memorial products. While I am a firm believer in capitalism, there have to be ethical limits and publishing unauthorized obituaries, with uncorroborated information by the family of the deceased, with the purpose of selling products, in my opinion steps over that ethical line. To reiterate, since the official obituary prepared by the family and posted by the funeral home on the internet is disseminated without limits and is available to all, and contains accurate information actually approved by the decedent's family, and the only information the family of the deceased wishes to be posted, there is absolutely no need or altruistic purpose for these Echovita obituaries. In our case, this unsolicited and unauthorized obituary has been confusing to acquaintances of our deceased family member who have contacted us.
As noted in several other reviews posted on Trust Pilot, Echovita’ s business plan uses families and their friends at a most vulnerable time in their lives.
I urge all who have unfortunately lost a loved one to make certain that the only obituary published is from the funeral home responsible, and the obituary that the family wants to see in print.

Hi Bruce,
You stated that we posted specific names without your permission, however, all names we post would have first been posted publicly online in the original version of the obituary, so it wouldn't be possible for Echovita to post specific names that weren't originally posted online. You stated that Echovita should seek permission from families, and we do via the funeral homes who cooperate with us, as we post their complete original obituaries. For funeral homes that refuse to cooperate with us, which means they refuse to inform families they serve of the free service we provide to give them the option to post on our website for free, we are unable to reach out to the family because we don't have their contact information. Howevers, many of those same funeral homes who don't cooperate with us do work with paid websites who actually pay the funeral home to post obituaries onto their platform, but the funeral home charges the family to post to the other platform as well. That is something we disagree with. Families shouldn't have to pay for obituaries. Just as there are negative reviews, mostly based on opinion, and other negative reviews left by disgruntled funeral home staff members acting as families, there are positive reviews and many testimonials displayed on our website. Are some reviews true about certain experiences on our website? Yes, and we respond to them, apologize, and try to rectify the issue, just as the majority of online companies.
When obituaries are posted on the internet, we further share the basic facts only in a death notice format to inform society of who has passed away. We organize all obituaries and death notices by city, so that people can see who passed away daily in selected cities of their choice with a free subscription.

Hi Kristy,
Echovita doesn't post the original photo or the original text of the obituary without the family's permission. We allow people to post photos as memories to obituary pages, just like every website that has obituaries. Generally speaking, main photos approved by us, are only photos added by an immediate family member and that are of the deceased only. In this case, the photo used as the main photo should not have been used as the main photo, so we apologize for that. However, we were not aware of "a bitter ex girlfriend" and the photos added were not inappropriate. Furthermore her name wasn't mentioned within the obituary. Had you of contacted us directly requesting for the photos to be removed and for that person not to be able to leave photos or messages, we could have taken action to prevent that.
This company was horrible
This company was horrible. I ordered flowers for my aunt’s funeral from their website. The flowers never came because the floral shop couldn’t deliver to that address. The funeral was a suburban area of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. You can’t tell me that they couldn’t find one local florist in the area that could deliver an order in a timely fashion. I would never recommend Echovita.

Hi Lynn,
I'm sorry to hear about the experience you had. I'd like to add some clarity to your review, as there are a few misleading discrepancies. First, Echovita is an obituary website, not a floral company. All of our flower orders are processed by our partner, Blooms Today. They assign each order to a local florist within the area of the delivery address. Sometimes, the local florist assigned the order is unable to fulfill the order on time, so they inform Blooms Today and they try and locate another florist. If they are unable to find a local florist able to fulfill the order, they inform the customer and cancel and refund the order, which is what happened in this case.

Permission to post such information, is not needed, however, permission to post the original obituary is needed, which is why there is a button on each obituary page for the family to give their permission to post the original obituary, if they'd like. No where on our website does it say lighting a candle or planting a memorial tree is connected to the funeral home's website. We don't make money on people's grief, and if that were the case, then it could also be applied to how funeral homes upsell to families to capitalize on their grief. Thank you for providing your email address. I can confirm that you have never contacted us regarding an obituary on our website.

Preying on grieving families
EDIT (for additional clarity on their truly awful business practices):
I am not allowed to post links, but I would encourage you to do a search for Echovita online, in particular articles from Wired, CBC, CTV, La Presse, and others that give full details of the owner's previous business (which was sued for $20 million, lost in court, and then filed for bankruptcy to avoid paying out), the new business model (slightly different just to avoid complete plagiarism, but in the process making a bunch of costly mistakes), and the countless stories of grieving families who have had to deal with them during their most difficult times.
They can hide behind legalities all they want, but what they are doing is immoral and causes unnecessary pain for families. They may try to flag for defamation, but all I am saying is the truth. They don’t like being “insulted” so will try to defend their predatory actions. Just look at the numerous complaints from grieving families and confused funeral homes. Their “human” error can cause unimaginable pain for those who are already suffering. Just a terrible business.

Hi Phil,
We appreciate your feedback. What we do is not immoral. When obituaries are published on the internet and are accessible without a password, they become public information. Echovita is an obituary aggregator that further shares the basic facts of publicly available obituaries, while also allowing families to create and post obituaries for free on our website. Our actions are not predatory, and nobody likes being insulted. Some funeral homes appreciate what we do and cooperate with us to assist families, while other funeral homes believe they are the sole owners of obituaries posted on their website, which we disagree with. Funeral homes do not own basic facts of publicly available obituaries. We have some funeral homes contact us, saying that they own all the information of the families they serve, including their names, and many families are unaware of this. Furthermore, if any sales are made via an obituary page, we put aside 50% of any commission received for the family, which they can claim with proper proof to ensure any money is released to the rightful person. We do not ask for, nor accept any donations, and we provide any family suggested donation information for visitors to the obituary to be aware of the family's wishes. If errors are made, we make any necessary corrections almost immediately. Human error is possible and even obituaries posted on funeral home websites have errors, and we have lots of proof. We understand you may not agree with how we operate, however, many families appreciate what we do, as it gives them the opportunity to inform more people of their loved one's passing at no cost. Thank you.
