Aspire Pros and Cons

It is easy to use and fairly user friendly overall. Using the platform has allowed me to track creators, organize campaigns that are coming up, as well as easily pay creators through Paypal quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot of information to look at in the platform sometimes, which can be a bit distracting to be able to look at all of the information in a digestable way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how Aspire simplifies managing our brand’s ambassador program, particularly when it comes to streamlining each collaboration. The platform offers a seamless blend of manual and automated features, guiding creators through every stage—from onboarding to meeting deliverables. Their customer support is also very quick to respond and always very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My main issue with Aspire is its data sorting capabilities. It doesn’t effectively combine data in a way that helps identify which creators to re-engage for future collaborations.

My other frustration with Aspire is the creator search feature. The filtering options often don’t align with what I’m looking for, which makes the process time-consuming. As a result, I usually end up resorting to organic searches on social platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease and flexibility of recruitment tools. The customer service support is also top-notch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The analytics and commissioning could be better. Our business is focused on new customer acquisition, and we'd like more data on what creators are best and sending us new customers. We'd also like to motivate them better to send us new customers which can be done with commission offerings specifically for new customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the ability to handle all payments directly through the platform. This saves us a ton of time as a large company. Also, the search features give a great insight into influencers, and we utilize them even outside of influencer campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are issues here and there around influencers being unable to connect their accounts, but support is always helpful and quick to respond! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I launched my first influencer marketing channel a handful of years ago, I was overwhelmed with spreadsheets and email threads. But when I found Aspire, I was able to not only consolidate my process in a way the type-A control freak in me had only dreamt of, but also to scale our program so that it became one of the most profitable marketing channels for my company — all through organic, word of mouth marketing. I use Aspire all day every day to vet new influencers and then shepherd them through our flow, creating terms right in the platform and tracking deliverables as they create. Plus, the reporting means I can share our progress with leadership whenever needed. I’m proud of what I built, but there is absolutely zero chance I could have done it without Aspire and their all star, super attentive team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, the integrations with other platforms (and Meta!) can be a bit tricky; but, luckily, the team at Aspire is readily available for support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to track and quantify your results. Robust online community to find creators and quickly see all their stats. Centralizes and automates the influenecer agreements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Layout on where to find different features isn't always intuitive. It's been very difficult and time consuming for us to set up our campaigns and integrate with other platforms they said they support. Very little support to get actual training, most everything is done via a chatbot or online help pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It shows me numbers that are necessary in assessing the creator's standing - engagement rate, stiry impressions, audience analytics, and many more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the email responses from creators doesn't come thru into my inbox so I have to double check or follow up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great way to get content from creators, tracking sales, organizing projects, looking at stats! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We had technical issues and did not see the most success from the support team. Also, did not see an ROI and we had the platform for an entire year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aspire is super easy to use and is always adding new features that impove the influencer communication experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downsides of Aspire is that it does not penalize creators for not submitting content or ghosting a brand. I do wish they had more UGC creator specific features like Trend or Cohley. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
