Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently mention that the staff are exceptionally helpful, professional, and take the time to genuinely listen to individual requirements.

Many people note that these tailored recommendations act as a real time saver for busy professionals seeking reliable vendor options.

Hi Wenona, Thank you for alerting us to your recent experience with Software Advice. We appreciate your feedback, and if you would like to provide us with any additional details by emailing our support team at [email protected], we would like to try our best to rectify this situation for you.
To many people talking in the background. Hard to understand the person with the accent!
Hi Penni, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. However, it seems like this review might be intended for another business. Software Advice does not work like that; we offer a service to people who are looking to narrow down their options when shopping for software through one to one interactions and we are based out of United States only. We encourage you to direct your feedback to the appropriate company on Trustpilot to ensure it reaches the right audience.
Abel, the gentleman I spoke to, was earnest and knowledgeable in his service to me. He set my expectations for what contacts I would receive in the following couple of days

A wonderful experience overall. They listened to my wishes and provided 4 great companies based on the requirements I outlined to them. Really a great platform and I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to save time on their search and act quickly in putting new systems/software's in place.
Hi Amanda, Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful review. We’re so happy you had a great experience with Software Advice, and we look forward to assisting you again whenever you need us.
They contacted vendors that did not fit into the needs I communicated, so I spent wasted time communicating with vendors that were not applicable and with Software Advice to ask them to stop their communication. I also tried to call the number on the email I received from Software Advice and could not get through; I was repeatedly disconnected.
Hi Stanley, We sincerely appreciate your feedback. While we strive to match every software buyer with the best options for their organization, sometimes we miss the mark, and that's clearly what happened here. We apologize for this mistake and assure you that the advisor's manager has been notified to provide them with coaching so that this doesn't happen again.
Unable to provide reviews for software, which was obtained by their advice. Constantly will talk to a bot.

I received calls from five payroll and HR systems vendors the same day that I spoke to Angela Doherty of Software Advice. I am still conducting telephone interviews with the five vendors that responded and hope to make a decision soon. I was impressed at how quickly Angela understood my requirements. She sent reviews of each of the five companies she suggested.

Software Advice was extremely helpful in guiding me through the process of identifying the right software solutions for my business needs. Their platform made it easy to compare options, understand key features, and evaluate pricing in a way that felt clear and unbiased. What stood out most was the personalized support. The advisor took the time to understand my specific requirements and provided thoughtful recommendations rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. This saved me a significant amount of time and helped me feel confident in my decision-making. Overall, Software Advice is a valuable resource for any organization looking to make informed software decisions. I highly recommend them to professionals who want expert guidance, transparency, and efficiency when selecting new tools.

We had no idea where to start in looking for software that we needed and Software advice made it super easy. After asking us a few questions about what we were looking for they narrowed down our search and recommended vendors that might fit our needs. It made it super simple and let us focus on our needs vs. searching and researching and possibly missing ideal vendors in the process. A real time saver and helpful for those of us that this area is not our area of expertise...we just need the tools to get the job done!

I’ve mentioned several times that I’m only available for soliciting calls on weekends, but the continued weekday outreach shows that my time and boundaries weren’t respected. I regularly look for CRM solutions to integrate into my clients’ businesses, however this kind of persistence without listening ends up costing business owners time and money. Because of this, I’ve decided not to move forward and would appreciate it if you remove my contact information and do not reach out to me again
Hi Ronald, We’re sorry to hear you have been dissatisfied with your experience with our partners. We value your feedback and are always looking for areas to improve. We will be sure to pass your feedback to our Advisor team to improve our services.
Searching for EHR software was made easier as I could find a lot of information in one place. After somewhat disappointing initial recommendations, they got better with a little communication. I used their site to research EHRs a little further and self schedule with the vendors I wished to demo. I must say too many emails were sent and it felt like spam, I almost quite my search because of that alone. Experience improved so 4 stars.

At first, I thought that this wouldn't be a helpful website, but it was free, so I decided to try it anyway. I'm glad I did! They gave me so many options for obtaining a Learning Management System for my business so that I can host classes online. The companies that reached out to me because of Software Advice gave me more than I asked for. Thanks so much for your help!
