G2
Depends
Confidence: Medium
Buyers shortlisting B2B software should use G2 free as one input, cross-checked against Capterra or TrustRadius.
| Compare | SelectSoftware Reviews | G2 |
|---|---|---|
| Verdict | Depends | Depends |
| Best for | HR teams shortlisting HRIS/ATS/payroll vendors | B2B software buyers shortlisting tools |
| Who it's not for | Anyone wanting verified user-review volume . G2 dwarfs it | Vendors without five-figure budgets |
| Privacy | No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.³ | No public security page found; UpGuard reports no phishing; G2's own DPA references a past data breach.14 |
| Support quality | Self-reported 4.9/5 helping HR teams monthly | Trustpilot and BBB complaints about G2's service |
| Public sentiment | No independent user reviews found in the sources; the company self-reports a 4.9/5 rating from HR teams on LinkedIn.⁴ | 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.16 |
| Biggest gotcha | Guess: review sites like this typically earn vendor referral fees . verify shortlist picks independently.¹ | Vendor contracts are negotiated and opaque; budget five figures annually before committing.15 |
