Verdict	Depends	Depends
Best for	Insights teams sourcing research agencies	B2B software buyers shortlisting tools
Who it's not for	Anyone expecting actual research software . it lists partners, doesn't replace them	Vendors without five-figure budgets
Privacy	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.^²	No public security page found; UpGuard reports no phishing; G2's own DPA references a past data breach.¹⁰
Support quality	No user evidence found	Trustpilot and BBB complaints about G2's service
Public sentiment	Public commentary praises Greenbook's blog writing, but no substantive product-level user reviews were found.^⁵	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.¹²
Biggest gotcha	Guess: 'verified' listings are likely vendor-paid; verification isn't independent auditing^¹	Vendor contracts are negotiated and opaque; budget five figures annually before committing.¹¹
