Decent leads. Easy to set up. Includes editing and writing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pricing is not transparent and staff are I'll equipped to handle problems. Impossible to reach a person. Prices have increased over 400% in 2 years Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the idea of the platform but the execution and customer service is terrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their customer service is not good and they charge you an arm and a leg for leads that are not even relevant to the service you offer. A huge waste of time and money! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. The leads are terrible. The interface is slick but that is the best thing I can say. We will never use this tool again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The dishonesty and dark patterns which the company has built into it's system.
They take money from pros for leads, then use that money to post Google search ads, which compete against the pro's own ads. It's dishonest and when confronted about it the company will not provide refunds. We have utilized 0 leads from Thumbtacks because they are all out of our area or poor matches and have spent $150! That's easily 15-30 leads on Google! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have tried to use Thumbtack to look for services and support on projects in my area, such as dog sitting or professional services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that the search functions work pretty well when you filter by different options. I think it's also a great opportunity for those looking to offer their services to others to be listed and available for work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You do have to pay for the service for visibility, but I have booked quality clients for weddings and portraits through thumbtack. I am happy with the service so far, and have been using it for over 5 years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thumbtack allows me to find multiple pros for my household project in one step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was window cleaning. I pay for my leads on a “as you go” basis. I would pay for leads when my work was low. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I do like that I have control over which lead I pick. And I love that it tallies up how much you spend for taxes. Also, if the customer decides that that they don’t want any after all, you get your dough back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thumbtack connects consumers with service providers for your chosen fields. For example, we are a plumbing, heating, and cooling company, so whenever homeowners go to thumbtack looking to be connected with service providers in their area, we are given their information and project details.

Ive used thumbtack for quotes for personal trainers, wedding related vendors, and to install a hot tub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the idea of being able to get multiple quotes without having to talk to multiple people! The questions are not always very relevant to the inquiry you're making (or, are too in depth for the scenario) but they're quick and painless to fill out, even on a mobile device.
