    Regrettable experience with their paid version

    Date: Dec 03 2024
    Summary

    We invested in G2 enterprise where they claimed a bunch of things, and how traffic from G2 as well as leads would increase significantly. None of that has happened, especially after investing a huge 9k USD. What was worse- no customer support, no account manager to take care of the account, having to invest additional time and resources in making them understand what our solution is because they will decide which category you belong. The list of frustrations go on. Strongly recommend against any business using them to avoid regretting later.

    Positive

    The free version, where you could get better value than investing a bomb as an SMB and dealing with their pathetic service.

    Negative

    Zero value add, zero customer experience. Didn't meet their SLAs and didn't bother to compensate for lost time and money of the customer.

    Decent Review Software

    Date: Mar 06 2022
    Summary

    Overall the software is effective for software research purposes and I’d recommend using it along with SourceForge.

    Positive

    I use G2, along with SourceForge, to obtain qualify recommendations for software selections I need to make for my business. G2 is super helpful for this purpose.

    Negative

    The technology with G2 is more flashy than SourceForge, but it leads to more bugs and less reliability than SourceForge.

    G2 is the absolute worst

    Date: Apr 29 2021
    Summary

    Bad bad bad and horrible! Shut down your company or do something about your deceitful marketing lies of fake gift cards.

    Positive

    I have done 3 reviews on total for surveys for G2 that market to give honest feedback and proof with photos of your account and how you’ve used a certain app or company’s product for years. I have done everything honestly and submitted everything wasting about 10-15 per survey NOT INCLUDING ALSO THE AFTER CUSTOMER REVIEW SURVEY FOR ANOTHER FEW MINUTES to only be told later they will not give the gift card.

    Negative

    Everything is lies and deceit with this company. No gift card is provide do have tried this a few times over a course of two years once in a while submitting survey reviews and patiently waiting for my gift card. I only review honest company products I used for a year or two and how it’s implemented in my business work or in school during college and none ever gets a gift card after saying it will. This customer service you contact afterwards to help on contact us just ignores you after they ask you to complain I have two proof of these emails from tech customer support that NEVER HELPS! 5 people I know at work also told me G2 is a scam and they’ve never got gift cards after the reviews! They need to be shut down

    Good review platform but bad support

    Date: Aug 04 2020
    Summary

    My personal experience with G2 has been bad but overall it is an easy to use review platform where you can discover new business softwares and find user reviews.

    Positive

    Good modern looking interface
    Large number of user reviews
    Moderation to filter out fake reviews
    Good categorization of softwares

    Negative

    The support is really poor and of no actual help, i have faced many issues which are unresolved to this date even after lengthy conversations with support staff.

    Reviews are rejected without any proper explanation - I have written genuine detailed reviews which have been rejected with the same response.

    Sea of all software packages

    Date: May 27 2020

    Positive

    I like its A to Z availability of all software available along with all around customer care service.

    Negative

    Not Good as SourceForge

    Date: Dec 09 2020
    Summary

    Nevertheless, the interface and presentation of the website do look but, a few of the content is not that good, moreover, they do not provide review access from a normal Gmail account which is also hectic and it takes nearly a month to get your review live.

    Positive

    My work includes a lot of paid software, so now and then I have to see reviews before buying the best software out there in the market. So I have used TrustRadius, G2, and SourceForge for this, with honestly SourceForge provides better insights than these two.

    Negative

    Even though there are a huge number of reviews on G2 but reviews on G2 are very brief and few reviews do not have a lot of grammatical errors.
