User interface, easy access to support, and great perks to inform clients about! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not the cheapest provider we work with. Lowering the price would be helpful for our leaner clients to want to use Betterment! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Betterment's pricing is reasonable relative to competitors, and the investment selection is pretty good, allowing team members the ability to choose certain investment plans or create their own portfolio allocations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Quite a lot, actually. The customer support is the biggest challenge. You can't get someone on the phone, so you always have to send them an email. We had a number of issues initially with setup and ongoing challenges around managing the 401k itself or problems with contributions that we need to sort out, and that's been difficult to troubleshoot. The platform is not as polished as others I've seen or used in the past. But the biggest frustration is the fact that there have been issues and then the customer support challenges.
