Retool vs. Trustpilot

If you need to build an admin panel or any other backend system, Retool is the right tool for you.

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.

• Ease of use - someone with small amount of experience can use it.
• Adaptability - you can build a lot of things with it.
• Reliability - works quite well.

• 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.

• Loading speed - not sure if this is just us, but in my experience, it's not the fastest loading platform.
• More customization with colors and fonts.

• 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.

Because even though it is quite intuitive it is not the best tool I have ever seen.

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.

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.

• 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.
