G2 for Buyers vs. Trustpilot

As TrustRadius is, G2 does its job: you get real people feedback and reviews from the trenches for the software you want to discover. That's very useful when you have to make software purchase decisions and real-life trial is not possible.

TrustPilot cannot be trusted. They have consistently removed reviews since I started with them. At first I thought it was a one or two off situation. We recently launched an "ask for reviews" initiative and got several positive reviews and TrustPilot removed all of them, without recourse. This hurts us really badly and initiates drawn-out emails with our customers. TrustPilot is wrong about legitimate reviews and has no clean way to resolve that. They hurt our customer relationships more than helped.

• very easy to use UI

• Completing the review for the customer is a simple process which enables us to receive more feedback.
• The Trustpilot account management team is a true partner working with each department to help with adoption across the company.
• The Trustpilot development team is a trusted partner with our own internal development team, assisting them with implementation as well as integration with their API.

• review page has got too much information so you can easily get lost
• no dark mode in the site

• Removing inaccurate/faulty reviews. It's hard to talk to people about removing some inaccurate reviews.
• Product reviews should be visible on search engines too.
• Review requests email templates are not the best.

It's expensive and customer service is not the best.

I've rarely had issues and needed support. During the implementation phase we relied on their support heavily and they were very knowledgeable, responsive and helpful. Any questions I've had have been answered promptly by my account manager. They also have a great knowledgebase for self-service support.

I think TrustRadius does the job better than G2. I use G2 as a complement to TrustRadius. TR covers a wider range of software, with a more user-friendly interface. both sites have trustworthy reviews written by real people, and not by vendors

Selected Trustpilot because of superior integration with the website and Google SERPS. Again, my only complaint would be Trustpilot was relatively more expensive than the other technologies.

• it helped us to get a more precise idea about the issues we could encounter while using the softwares we need
• it helped us to compare vendor's speech with real life usage

• We've seen an increase in CTR and CVR while lowering our CPAs using our reviews in our display and social media ads.
• Integrating the star rating with our Google Ads was automatic and we saw a lift in CTR when the stars were added.
• We saw an uptick in traffic in from our Trustpilot review page to our website.
