"Effortless Setup and Tenant Finding Success with Bark.com"
5/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

I appreciate Bark.com for its ease of use, which makes it effortless to navigate and manage. Setting up my profile was incredibly simple and straightforward, which is a huge benefit for someone in property management. The platform's user-friendly interface allows me to focus more on finding tenants for rental properties rather than grappling with complex setups. The simplicity in setting up and using Bark.com adds immense value to my workflow, making it an indispensable tool for my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bark Rocks!!"
5/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Very reasonable prices for warm qualified leads! I always buy the credits @their 1/2 price sales so it's an even better deal. Have found many customers based on my requirements. They are super attentive and always willing to refund credits when there is an issue. Their customer service is superb! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

I have found zero downsides from Bark! Nothing at all to report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Rather search for reasonable leads"
0/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Not at all. Bark doesn't help me as a freelancer at all. In the end, it just takes money out of your pocket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

Here, you only gain customers if you have no standards. Low-budget usually doesn't bring anything to the customer either. I cannot recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Worth the investment"
5/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Bark allows you to create your target leads and look to see if each one is a good fit for yourself. This way you can wisely use your budget without autopay settings that other services require. They're also good about crediting any leads with false information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

There is no guarantee after paying for a lead that they will answer so it can be a waste of money unfortunately and the credit prices are high Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Attention scam! Run away!"
0/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Nothing! It's a scam! Bark offers fake leads to lure you in, it's nothing of the sort! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

It's a scam. Bark lures you with "prospects" that in reality do not exist. It's a scam and they refuse to refund. I regret not having seen the reviews before! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quality leads but expensive"
4/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

I stopped using Thumbtack because they started to automatically reply to requests without my consent. I like that Bark.com lets me decide which requests to reply to. If this policy changes I will leave Bark as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

Cost is too high. I would reply more often if it were not so expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Terrible Platform for Freelancers"
0/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

The concept of limiting the amount of applicants per job. (If that's even true) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

I can only speak for the German space for designers, and there the leads are straight up terrible.

Usually the only information for a project is "website" or "flyer". No details, no budget, no infos about the client.

And then bark.com expects you to throw 25-50 Euros into their face to get the contact infos. And if you're lucky, they work.

Then you can find out, that you just spend 50 Euros to get the contact to a random dude, who wants a complete SaaS platform website plus coding for 20 Euros.

Of course your credits are gone then and bark.com doesn't care. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The worst lead platform i've ever used"
0/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Completely unhelpful in every way. Dead phone lines, scam emails, and non existent people.

Support is completely unhelpful in that they do not issue a monetary refund for any credits you purchase even if the leads were lies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

Customer support did not help at all. They essentially told me monetary refunds are not allowed based on their terms and conditions. Completely awful customer service and platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Source of Quality Leads with Quick Response Needed"
5/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Bark.com provides a steady stream of warm leads for multiple financial services verticals. The account management support has been consistently good, and the implementation process — including CRM integration — was quick and straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

Leads are sold to multiple providers, including competitors, so you must have efficient internal systems and quick response processes to maximize conversion opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Magician using Bark"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Bark.com?

Very happy with the amount of leads coming through Bark.

Overall the app is pretty easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bark.com?

Sending email through the app is wonky, I end up using business email instead.

Must be careful, the buttons for accept or decline are close and similar. Also, I've declined a gig, only to have app say I accepted it: taking a fee. Bark support was accommodating in reversing the charge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
