Overall Satisfaction with TrustRadius for Buyers

I used TrustRadius for vetting out various CRM systems. I was looking for reviews, feedback and comparison to other like technologies. My role in the buying process is to select the system to implement.
  • To understand my options (i.e. build my short list or long list)
  • To compare products
I searched the top 3 systems we were considering and used TrustRadius to further support the research I had done on my own.
In reviews for technology, I look for ease of implementation, user interface/ ease of use, and cost to ROI ratios. I like to review Pros and Cons and alternatives I should consider. I value input from other users who have implemented the software in their businesses and can speak to the challenges and successes they have had with it.
  • Pro and Con Lists
  • Easy to find and compare alternatives
  • Scorecard with relevant topics evaluated
  • I'd like to see the reviewers that are vetted be held to more strict standards. It appears that just about anyone with a business email can write a review. More professional reviews with people who vet software for a living would be helpful.
I used G2 Crowd and we also met with Gartner. The reviews of the 2 CRM systems we are considering were comparable. The ease of use with TrustRadius really helped complement other sources.
I preferred G2Crowd simply because of the user interface but used TrustRadius to support what I found. The scorecard and Pros and Cons were what stood out about the TrustRadius site. It contained full, detailed information and helped fill any gaps from previous research.
It's easy to use and has some great information. I'm not sure I can fully trust the sources and reviews can be very biased.
