Top Rated Emissary.io Alternatives
Emissary reached out after I left a large corporate to help their clients on projects all of them have canceled so nothing positive to report. I like the concept and idea, but do not think most firms are mature enough managerially to get the most out of these types of services. I also do not think a one-off one-hour conversation provides enough context for the work they are trying to accomplish, putting both the client and consultant in an awkward situation.

-The pay multiples less than other services like Coleman, GLG, Guidepoint.
-Scheduling is disorganized.
-Companies cancel on you at random.
-You'll put in a couple of hours filling out forms and schedules to get one one-hour call - if you are lucky, that will be a one-off 200$ per hour rate. Decent rate if there is consistent work, but that doesn't appear likely. Added up you are paid far less than any professional consulting deal you'd get. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

its a cool concept but a very expensive way to get insight into potential partners/prospects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the information is not always up to date or accurate as the emissaries are all former employees. some are very helpful but others not so much and you have to lock into lengthy contracts to see results if any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's an interesting platform. The focus on very specific key account identified is it's core strength. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In order to be effective, there Emissary needs a relationship to the account specified. I'm not sure they've built enough key relationships with the volume of accounts out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
