What do you like best about G2.com?

many thanks to Telma Rodrig I submitted a support ticket on January 29, 2025, around 2 or 3 am after my review was flagged for using AI tools. I explained that I rely on AI to ensure clarity in my reviews due to my dyslexia. To my surprise, when I checked my inbox, both tickets had been resolved and addressed incredibly quickly. This was the first time I’ve experienced such efficient support, and it truly impressed me. Based on this experience, I felt motivated to leave a positive review of this platform. The responsiveness and helpfulness of the support team were outstanding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about G2.com?

One thing I feel is very important to highlight is the need for an option for users like myself, who have dyslexia and rely on AI tools for clarity. Without AI, my review process would be much more difficult and confusing. I suggest adding a feature that allows users to share a URL of their conversation when using AI tools to reformat their responses. This would help ensure accessibility for those who depend on AI for effective communication. Currently, there’s no option to provide such a link, and adding this would significantly improve the experience for users like me.

this url is the conversation on how i used ai as a tool for larity in this review i add it here since as mentioned above there is no option for this and hope it avoides teh geting flaged for ai use as before

What problems is G2.com solving and how is that benefiting you?

I really enjoy the fact that this platform is the best I’ve found so far. I can give a review and get compensated for my time without having to meet a specific threshold before receiving the reward. The speed with which the reward is received is also impressive. It truly stands out, and I’ve tested many platforms, but this one is by far the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about G2.com?

The idea of having verified reviews is excellent.

Maintaining certain standards and minimum requirements helps to establish trustworthiness.

Unfortunally, actual execution is really bad and customer service interactions are inappropriate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about G2.com?

Reviews keep on being rejected for no obvious reason. Even elaborate information triggers the vague request to "elaborate more" on the use. That, while other existing reviews on the platform contain much less words.

Sometimes G2 even refuses to understand screenshot of complete license numbers and login information as "insufficient proof of actual use" which is inappropriate and even defamatory.

Sometimes I got rejected for the supposed "use of AI", which was absolutely not the case with my fully manually crafted and compiled reviews.

Certain input just keeps disappearing every time you check a review (select Facebook as to where you are using a social media management tool and it will not show after saving). Which means that the platform is not working reliably.

Unspecific answers and inability to provide specific help to which actual addition or change would be required to get a review released are not available, or only after an inappropriately long time and the use of offensive wording.

Next point is that provides a highly negative impression is that the references given on the platform are totally irrelevant. Look up any "alternative" for a software that you are familiar with - and be surprised how weird and random the selection of these suggestions will be. In most cases completely off topic suggestions. Categorization simply does not seem to exist or the way that options are allocation is lacking actual insight. What is especially scaring here is that such random behavior is pointing at incomplete algorithms managing the workflows without having a deeper understanding of what they are doing.

How can a good idea of a review platform turn out to be so terribly bad in execution?

And this is not only my opinion. When turining to social media you will find a lot of complaints of absolutely random arbitrariness shown by G2. I guess the biggest shortcoming is that there don't seem to be humans involved in managing the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is G2.com solving and how is that benefiting you?

G2 is giving massive problem in fulfilling it's actual purpose and is not solving anything. The negative experience makes it a totally unreliable platform to check reviews or to look for alternatives. Other review platforms might have a different focus, but they are actually living up to their promises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about G2.com?

We can find almost all the software in one place. Along with reviews and pricing and pros and cons. Software is available for service and industry. The discussion among professionals is very insightful.

I have learned so much about all types of software through G2. G2 has helped me to analyze the apps I use. I keenly look at each software and measure its efficiency for both personal and professional purposes.

I think this is also a part of the process of innovation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about G2.com?

Nothing to dislike. I have been a part of the G2 community for a long time and I enjoy every part of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is G2.com solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is helping me to explore softwares and use it to the fullest. I test every possible feature of a tool. The reviews help me to assess a tool and the insights I get from other users are also very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about G2.com?

G2.com is a reliable platform for software reviews, providing clear insights on ease of use, integration, and support. It’s easy to navigate, and the extensive filters help me find software that aligns with my needs. I appreciate G2's focus on ease of implementation and the regular updates on customer support and key features. The feature comparisons and integration details are especially valuable, making it easy to pick tools that work well with existing systems. Overall, G2 is a go-to for quick, trustworthy software recommendations. The frequency of fresh reviews is impressive, and the regular updates help keep the platform relevant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about G2.com?

One thing I find a bit challenging about G2.com is that while there are so many reviews, it can sometimes feel overwhelming to sift through them all, especially when looking for insights on specific use cases. Additionally, some reviews tend to be quite short, making it harder to get a full picture of the product’s strengths and weaknesses. However, the extensive content still makes it a valuable resource overall! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is G2.com solving and how is that benefiting you?

G2.com really helps solve the problem of figuring out which software tools actually work in real-world situations, especially with so many options out there. With all the verified reviews, it’s easier to get a real feel for a product's pros and cons based on other users' experiences, not just sales pitches. For me, it makes finding the right software much quicker and more straightforward, and sometimes I even discover new tools I hadn’t considered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about G2.com?

G2 was a very through review process for a business software that I use, I liked the details that they wanted to hear about and how it affects my job.

It was more personal than just a plain survey. I feel the data they collect and send to companies could be benefical and could make changes off of that information. When looking through reviews from other companies to start your planning process it was great to educate myself throughly and it was an asset in my research. I have used G2 for business software and hardware needs for the last 2 years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about G2.com?

It was a little long but I feel that it was worth it

The surveys needed a little information but then comes back needed a lot more. I would like to see more questions that are more specfic about products and services software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is G2.com solving and how is that benefiting you?

IT provided me with a survery for our time keeping system that I was able to make a more professional opinon on and learn more about. I like hearing the positives and negatives to get a clear perspective on. In our business we have to look for multiple options to suit our needs being a small company there is not a lot of experience to go off of with personal experience so I depend highly on others opinions and for all of our new software and hardware needs.Specifically for timekeeping and our HRIS systems.
