Likelihood to Recommend SourceForge (Slashdot Media)
I recommend SourceForge to anyone or business that needs both commercial and open source software. This platform has a wide variety of software with many categories that allow easy search for any project, in addition to the fact that searches can be done separately (commercial and open source software) so as not to have mixed results which go with different purpose. In addition to the fact that the community of this platform is quite active and that there are always times to discover new projects that can be useful for a company or individual person.
Read full review Well suited: For a company or organization that knows what they need to solve problems or optimize processes. TrustRadius for Buyers is ideal as you can check out categories and alternatives and read super-specific reviews that apply to your use case. Less appropriate: If you are unsure what you're trying to accomplish or the area/function to optimize with software, you can be overwhelmed with the vast offer of reviews because you don't know where to look.

The overall design that SourceForge has really leaves a lot to be desired, although the entire platform works perfectly, I think that the design should be much more attractive. There is currently no feature to save your progress on a review you are writing, so if you are writing a review and the browser is closed for some reason, all progress of the written review will be lost.

Souceforge was very straightforward and easy to manage. The leads worked for us so there is not a lot else to say about why I'd use it again. This isn't some complicated software product, it is a simple inbound marketing channel that is meant to generate leads and help us with brand awareness and it did exactly that.

SourceForge offers so many features for a technology review platform. They have some really unique ones that let potential new customers search for your product in really personalized and innovative ways. When you first load the edit screen, it may be a bit overwhelming at first because there are so many customizable fields, but their documentation and support is good and each field provides a ton of value.

We've never had any issues or downtime with SourceForge. Since we've been a user, the platform has never been down. Or at least never that I've noticed.

I hardly ever use the support on SourceForge, as I have not needed it. Their product works well for me. One time I had to email them and they got back to me the same day, but that's my only experience.
Read full review I cannot give a low rating because I have not used support for TrustRadius for Buyers.
Read full review Online Training SourceForge (Slashdot Media)
When we first signed up, they pair you with a campaign manager who trained us on how to use the product properly. The product is simple so the training was only about 30 minutes and after that we understood all the features and how to make the most of it. Most of the work came with making a custom landing page and building a follow up process for our sales team.

Easy to setup, we just needed to update our page and send them UTM tracking links. Most of the effort came with setting up our follow up process for our sales team.

G2 has a larger commitment time upfront and for a more expensive rate, which wasn't the best option for our team as we were just exploring the resources that existed out there at the time. We preferred Sourceforge as well due to its subscription service, making it easier to commit from the start.

G2 and
Capterra cover a wider range of categories, TrustRadius focuses specifically on business technology solutions. TrustRadius is known for its emphasis on verifying user reviews and providing in-depth insights. Their user base consists of professionals and decision-makers, making it a valuable resource for trustworthy and detailed feedback.
G2 and
Capterra offer broader market coverage and a wide range of products. I personally do not prioritize any specific platform. Wherever I find detailed information, I use it.

It allowed us to learn more about the features and functions of some software that we currently use. It allowed me to improve my decision-making for the software we use in the project area. It helped us to replace several programs that were used in our company. We made several replacements, for much more optimal alternatives.
