Hi Avela, Thanks for the feedback. We're glad to hear that you're finding our platform to be easy to use when accessing your reviews! Thanks, The Trustpilot Team
Valid and User Friendly Platform - A Bit Costly for Small Businesses
Comments: Overall it has been amazing and we love utilizing TrustPilot for our post order verified reviews.
Pros:
I love the validity that TrustPilot reviews give for a business. The implementation of the connection between our woocommerce site and TrustPilot was seemless. The dashboard for managing reviews is also super user friendly.
Cons:
The cost for TrustPilot for a small business is our biggest painpoint. We would love to be able to utilize the "full suite" of options but it is a bit too steep for our budget at this time.

Hi Ashley, Thanks for your kind words. Great to hear that you found it easy to get up and running with Trustpilot and that you're feeling the benefits of those verified reviews. The cost of our packages is something that we keep a close eye on, as we always want to make sure that we stay competitive in the market. But, we'll be sure to take in your feedback and pass it along to our teams. Best Wishes Jen - Trustpilot
Disappointing Service and Misleading Practices
Comments: As a customer, I expect a certain level of sincerity and professionalism from companies, especially those that promote genuine customer experiences. Unfortunately, my interactions with this company have been utterly disappointing, characterized by a lack of real communication and a failure to adhere to their own stated guidelines. I approached the company with a serious concern that directly contradicted their community guidelines. Rather than receiving a thoughtful response, I was met with robotic, automated replies. These messages, which were ostensibly translated into Danish, failed to address the specific issues I raised. It's perplexing and frustrating to receive a response in a language that suggests no genuine effort to understand my initial communication. Furthermore, the company's reliance on automated responses underlines a significant gap between their professed values and actual practices. It's disheartening to see a company talk about authenticity and customer engagement, only to hide behind generic, automated messages that offer no real solutions or acknowledgments of the problem. The irony is that their replies often reference their guidelines and rules, which, from my experience, they don't seem to follow themselves. This contradiction not only undermines their credibility but also highlights a worrying lack of accountability. For a company that is part of a platform like Trustpilot, which is designed to foster transparency and honest feedback, this behavior is particularly concerning. It's essential for such platforms to represent companies that genuinely interact and engage with their customers. Unfortunately, this has not been my experience. In conclusion, I am left with a sense of profound disappointment and frustration. The service I received was far from the sincere, problem-solving approach I expected. If the company is genuinely interested in improving and upholding its standards, I urge them to reevaluate their customer interaction strategies and start practicing what they preach. Until then, I can only advise others to approach this company with caution.
Pros:
Their website is fairly well-designed and easy to use.
Cons:
Untrustworthy business practices and kartel-like methods. Your score is greatly affected by your interest in buying the products to be able to build up positive reviews.

Decent tool to manage all reviews about my business
Pros:
Trustpilot has a very user-friendly UI and UX on their main dashboard. I also really like the UI design choice, for example the stars symbol, they look really pretty
Cons:
The tool is not powerful in letting me filter out and know for sure whether the reviewers are authentic people or just bots.

Trustpilor Reviews Not Always Accurate
Comments: We still look to Trustpilot for reviews of websites we might want to do business with, but we take our research much deeper before acting. We want to be 100% sure we're dealing with legit people.
Pros:
It's easy to locate reviews for products and websites on Trustpilot.
Cons:
We have discovered that there are too many instances of fake reviews appearing on Trustpilot, especially with regard to "get rich schemes" that appear on Instagram and Tiktok.

My rating is 10/10 and I continue to use Trust Pilot in the future both professionally and personal.

The fact that I am able to stay on track of my customers experience in an easy way with an easily readable grading scale. I also use Trust Pilot when I am looking for a vendor of a service or product to see what others are saying. This feels like an extra layer of purchasing security which could save me thousands of dollars in the future by making the right choices.

Used to be great. Nowadays almost all negative reviews are disappearing
Pros:
I used to check out what people are saying about the product before I buy. Not anymore.
Cons:
I feel that it is now giving me non credible information especially since last year. At the moment, there is a certain financial firm that me and everybody else is complaining that it is a scam. It started operating in August 2023 and suddenly it had more than 700 reviews all of them good.

I trust Trustpilot
Comments: I am really satisfied, never had problem with online services thanks to Trustpilot.
Pros:
When I am looking for information about e.g. websites that offer services and want to be sure about their reliability, I always check Trustpilot and its reviews. I quickly find the answers, I mean I can "trust" the service or should avoid (or be prepared for any problems), thanks also to the score (up to 5) and the color. The reviews are honest and help me a lot. Ofter they are well detailed and sometimes there is a reply from the companies. The interface is clean and easy to navigate. I highly recommend checking trustpilot before using an online service.
Cons:
nothing to report, Trustpilot is a well made product

Good and trusted system for reviews
Comments: Using it for less than half year. It's easy to implement but it's hard to uplift feedback score when you start from industry average rating (3.6 in my case)
Pros:
It's respected by many people. It's recognised in most organisations. It's important if you sell stuff on your own website.
Cons:
There are people selling positive feedback on fiverr and other platforms.

A platform to share your honest opinions
Pros:
I am glad that there's a popular platform like Trustpilot that allows customers to share their honest opinions about a company's services/products. It took a few days for the review to be processed but it will eventually appear.
Cons:
There are numerous fake accounts on the platform attempting to 'seed,' which can sometimes lead to inflated and biased ratings, making them less reliable. Additionally, I've encountered an issue with the feedback received from brands after leaving a negative review. It often feels robotic and unhelpful, with a lack of genuine efforts to address my concerns, as they tend to provide excuses rather than solutions.
