FAQs
What are the G2 Best Software Awards?
G2’s Annual Best Software Awards rank the world’s best software companies and products based on authentic, timely reviews from real users.
How are the winners determined?
More than 30 different lists are generated using G2’s proprietary algorithm based on G2’s verified user reviews and publicly available market presence data. The top 100 software companies are ranked based on a combination of Satisfaction and Market Presence scores. The top 100 products are ranked based on reviews across all categories in which they are a part. Satisfaction is an aggregate score based on a company’s products across their assigned categories. More tailored company and product lists (e.g., "India Software Companies" and "Products for Small Businesses") feature a smaller set of winners at 25 or 50 appearing on each list.
Read more about the methodology used to calculate G2’s Best Software Awards here.
How many reviews does a vendor need to be eligible?
To be included in one of G2’s Best Software Sellers or Best Software Products Lists, a software company must receive at least 50 approved reviews in aggregate across all of its G2-listed products during the 2023 calendar year. Reviews must have been submitted by Dec. 31, 2023 to impact Best Software eligibility and rankings. Scores reflect only data from reviews submitted during this evaluation period.
How are the Best Software Awards different from quarterly badge lists?
For G2’s annual Best Software Awards, the scores reflect reviews submitted in the evaluation period - in this case, the calendar year 2023. Other G2 reports might include more or less data which would potentially show different rankings for software companies and products.
Read more about G2’s research scoring methodologies.
Can software sellers and products win multiple awards?
Yes. A software seller and/or product has the potential to be named on multiple lists based on its eligibility and rankings.
How are reviews verified and vetted?
It is important to us at G2 to be objective and trustworthy, with reviews being thoroughly vetted. To ensure this, we require the use of a LinkedIn™ account or verified business email address to validate a G2 reviewer’s identity and current employer. We also validate reviewers by partnering with companies to securely authenticate users through select platforms. We do not allow users to leave reviews for their current employers, former employers, or competitors.
For more information on the reviews process, view G2’s community guidelines.
Were G2’s 2024 Best Software Lists researched and published using the same methodology and criteria as past years? If not, what is new?
Eligibility criteria and methodology have remained unchanged from last year. Being eligible, of course, does not guarantee inclusion on a list.
We did, however, add net-new lists in 2024 for:
Companies:
APAC Software Companies
Products:
Rookies of the Year
Best Products for Professionals in Analytics (this was previously combined with AI)
