We use Smarty for both address autocomplete and address verification/geocoding. We've been with them for almost 10 years and their services are deployed in our application and used everyday by hundreds of users. In the time that we've been with them, they have constently improved upon and expanded their offerings. Their APIs are flexible enough to not only meet different business requirements but also to integrate fairly seamlessly across several different types of technical implementations. We have batch and on-demand jobs that run backend (both .NET and Java) as well as a full front-end web-application integration, all using the same Smarty REST end points. They are also constantly improving not only on the services themselves, but also on the quality and quantity of the data they provide. These improvements have, in turn, allowed us to continually enrich our address data asset. They're support team is always responsive and thorough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'd like to see them improve upon their usage tracking/reporting to provide more granular detail. The current usage reporting is somewhat fairly broad and aggregated (e.g., a raw count of calls per day by API key, etc.) and so isn't very helpful from an administrative/account management standpoint.

Smarty is a great tool for quickly and accurately formatting a large group of addresses. With US addresses in particular, it's very easy to grab the zip code +4, automatically convert abbrevations to the USPS standard, and ensure that addresses are mailable. International address processing is also great, although it can be more hit-or-miss in terms of ability to standardize and identify addresses (which is not always an issue on Smarty's end, but often a result of the data provided or the country's mailing system, especially in less developed nations). I've only needed customer support once but they were prompt in investigating and addressing my question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some countries rarely retrieve precise address results, although that is usually a result of the national mail system itself rather than any error on Smarty's part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best part about Smarty is its reliable and easy-to-use API. The documentation is clear and well-defined, which has allowed us to integrate address validation seamlessly into our systems. We’ve been able to rely on Smarty’s services for over 10 years, and we continue to be impressed by their consistent quality and dependability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Honestly, there isn’t much to dislike. A few years back, the product had limited international address validation functions, but they’ve made progress on that front. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like best about Smarty is the accuracy and reliability it provides for address verification. Smarty seamlessly catches errors and validates addresses, ensuring that our data is clean and dependable. The system is straightforward and integrates well, so it doesn’t require a lot of setup time. The combination of accuracy, ease of use, and great support makes it a standout tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing I dislike about Smarty is that its standard plan functionality can be a bit limited for highly customized needs. While it excels at standard address verification and data cleansing, more complex or niche use cases may require additional workarounds additional integrations. However, this is a minor issue considering the core functionality works exceptionally well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The APIs they provide for address validation, address autocomplete, etc are extremely easy to use. Implentation was a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The implementation was almost TOO easy. Now my boss expects other things to be completed just as quickly :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that I can upload a file of addresses and get a bulk response in a fraction of a second. Very useful for the project I was working on. I also like that the single address check is there and easy to use and I do so daily. Customer support has been very helpful and responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'll let you know when I find something... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very easy to get through our entire customer list of addresses (hundreds) quickly to identify any addresses that were recorded incorrectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For us, there are many more features that we do not use. Its not that we dislike them, they are just not features we need for our mail lists. I wouldn't say they are bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using Smarty or as it was previously called, Smarty Streets for over a decade. As a school operations manager, it has created so much efficiencies for our school operations. I like that Smarty is so easy to use. I just upload a list, click a button, and I get the data I need. It's been such a huge added value to our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For a very long time, Smarty provided free look-ups for non-profit organizations and this program has ended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The addition of Smarty to the foundations register and donation forms has greatly streamlined the form completion process. When reviewing the data on the numbers using the Smarty tool month over month, it's amazing to see! Very useful for us and our constituents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't have anything I dislike about this tool! A must on our forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We have been using SmrtyStreet services for many years and it has been consistent and reliable. I cannot recall if there was any outages or service interruptions in the past therefore, it is reliable and simple to maintain. Unlike other companys providing API access for services we call from our applications, we do not have to worry about much about maintenance or updates. We like that there are not many uncessary updates from SmartyStreet if there is any, they gave us enough time and great communitation on what we need to adjust and what can be done to continue our calls to their APIs. We would like to continue the simple services and easy development with SmartyStreet for many years to come. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No complains for the SmartStreet services we use so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
