I like that there are some good deals available sometimes and you know about possible things you can do in your area. As a place of getting information for possible things to do, but not to purchase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no guarantee that what you bought you will get. The moment you press voucher you can say goodbye to your money and you might or might not get. Events might be refunded a few days prior with no explanation and it can take 10 days to get money back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how they offer everyday services at a reasonable price. Every so often they have an extra 20% savings deal Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mose of their offers are not really deals. The will up the price 100% just to reduce it to the original price to make it appear as though there is a 'deal'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The accessibility of what I purchase is my favorite part of Groupon. Sometimes I buy things online or from an app and I don't receive the purchase for a few days or weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike the quantity of options in my area of some services. It's pretty hit or miss as to what is being offered. Similarly, the offers change frequently so it's tough to wait and think on an offer and come back to it if necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that it is a way to reach many people, and it's great for advertising as well! I like that it is user friendly, and customers are familiar with the process, so it is easy for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that there is a long waiting period before customers can use their groupons, it causes a lot of frustration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
being able to find places near you is awesome because I find things that I never new existed! I can select a certain group of businesses I want to see advertisements for it automatically shows the places I am looking for! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It sends a lot of notifications when you opt-in on notifications. That setting can be turned off but I feel as though sometimes the notifications are unnecessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The food deals and movie deals. I have not had a problem with either of them. I did purchase a groupon to a restaurant that was closed contacted Groupon and I was able to trade it for something else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They portray themselves as being cheaper and discounts, but you just have to do your homework because I have found the prices to be cheaper elsewhere. I wish if a groupon expired they would just give you groupon bucks to use at a later day because the merchants have not allowed me to use an expired Groupon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to search for so many offerings and services that we can test out before recommending to customers we work directly with. It offers great local and quality deals. It give me the ability to gift/share, and will retain the purchase value if you let the deal expire. Overall Groupon's customer service is very good if you run into an issue.

Overall, it is a useful and fun resource, however sometime deals can be vague, for example: they look very enticing, but they aren't really specials as it just directs you to the company website offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You can buy anything you want, right in your area at great discounts. There is a ton of great product in there that you can’t find anywhere else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It’s a bit confusing sing at first but it wasn’t a long learning curve for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that Groupon has a wide assortment of different items, coupons, codes, etc. that can be purchased by users and be successfully used at corresponding merchants. They also have merchandise that can be bought and shipped where the purchaser prefers. In my experience, there has never been an issue with any certificate or item that I have purchased from this site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you live in a smaller city, the options can be extremely limited on things like the local deals. The vast majority of those that I receive in my Groupon account would require that I drive at least an hour away to use them successfully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Groupon offers me an opportunity to see and try new local experiences as well as unique products at a discounted price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thankfully there hasn’t been much that I have disliked overall it is a great platform without any downsides that I’ve experienced Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
