Who it's not for	Anyone wanting unincentivized reviews	Vendors without five-figure budgets
Privacy	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.	No public security page found; UpGuard reports no phishing; G2's own DPA references a past data breach.¹⁵
Support quality	No direct evidence in sources	Trustpilot and BBB complaints about G2's service
Public sentiment	Users value it as a free research tool but openly question review integrity and vendor lead quality.^³	Buyers find G2 useful for breadth, but sentiment on G2's own service skews negative on Trustpilot and Redditors weigh it against Capterra and Trustpilot.
Biggest gotcha	Reported $100 gift-card incentives for reviews may inflate ratings; verify elsewhere^⁴	Vendor contracts are negotiated and opaque; budget five figures annually before committing.¹⁶
