(Original )Information
What do you like best about GLG?

I like their extensive network, and expertise, who can give their valuable feedback and massive presence across the countries; they provide surveys for almost all fields. They also offer better rewards for the people who spend valuable time completing the survey. These help the business to grow and develop according to the market Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GLG?

Most of the surveys they offer are region specific. But their algorithm sends invitations based only upon the keywords. The filtration often occurs later in the stage, where people spend at least 20 to 30 minutes to complete the initial qualification, which later infers they are not qualified for the survey. The amount of time invested is still valuable because though the person has the relative experience and thinks they can provide better feedback, he only gets a regretful message.

Their rewards are sometimes less when compared to the expectation they are looking for from the person Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering GLG:

GLG is one of the excellent platforms where people can share their experience and provide the better requirement in the near future and meantime they also offer rewards for the quality of time you spend for them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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