slow and unhelpful support team. the support team doesn't want to provide precise answers to the customer and ask the customer to find the answer on the website, even if answers to the question are not written on the website. the support team ignores the question and constantly direct the client to the website without any further assistance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gleam?

I have used Gleam for years, both now and at my previous company. I have yet to find a better solution for giveaways. It is an easy-to-use, inexpensive platform that gets the job done. Email exports, entry actions, etc., are all easy to set up and utilize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gleam?

My biggest qualm with Gleam is the lack of analytics and tracking. Some giveaway platforms utilize tracking links in order to provide more robust monitoring and analytics. The basic metrics that Gleam provides are just fine, but I wish they implemented something a bit more in-depth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gleam solving and how is that benefiting you?

My company hosts giveaways regularly, and Gleam is an easy solution and way to capture emails + entries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
