"Failed to Deliver on Lead Generation Promises"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

Smooth sales people that would persuade anyone Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

I am frustrated with Cleverly because they promised to generate leads but failed to deliver any results. By the second month, it was evident that they lacked the capability to achieve the promised outcomes, yet they continued without delivering, which wasted my time. The reasonable thing to do is by the second month, when they clearly had no idea how to bring results, just to stop and not run around like a chicken with its head while wasting my time.. This experience was a complete failure, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Brings us 90% of our leads"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

We've used Cleverly for 3 years and it's been a game changer. we get 50 to 80 consistently, who are our ICP. It's enabled us to scale once we hired another AE.

Our project manager, Daniel, has been great at revising our messaging until it was landing well. He's always quick to respond and genuinely concerned with our success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

It took me a bit to know how to respond to the incoming responses. However, after voicing this concern with Daniel he gave me pointers and it quickly became easy to run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unqualified leads and uninterested leads = they will bill you for it"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

The reps were quick and responsive, the dashboard is easy to use although there were a lot of bugs that don't allow it to function or link things properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

I think the company's practices are a bit shady with how they bill. They clearly don't want to bill for a qualified lead or interested lead. The rep also informed us that even though a lead was not interested, the fact that they were part of their resources meant we were billed for it. I've spent over $10k 2 months and have to have it bring a single lead. I'm disappointed in the outcome, the lack of transparency, and the shady practices to bill things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Misleading, Poorly Delivered Service"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

I like that they offer a good price, but the claim is not fair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

I dislike that Cleverly overpromised and underdelivered, selling you a service positioned as a semi-automated lead generation solution with expert support, but in reality, leaving you to manage most tasks yourself. I am frustrated by the misleading sales tactics, where expectations of qualified leads and proactive assistance were not met. The platform’s technical failures, especially the broken AI misclassifying leads, wasted both your time and money. I dislike the poor quality of leads, many of which were irrelevant, automated replies, or outright rejections falsely labeled as positive.

Their lack of proactive communication and minimal, unhelpful support left me feeling ignored, especially when legitimate concerns were met with excuses or upsell attempts instead of real solutions. I also dislike how they shifted responsibility back onto you after promising a guided, reviewed process. The constant need to chase them for basic deliverables like CRM setup or campaign reviews added to your frustration. Finally, I strongly dislike their refusal to take accountability, their resistance to offering a fair refund despite clear service failures, and the repeated attempts to continue billing I even after cancellation requests—raising concerns about their business practices.

"Does not deliver as promised"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

The number of Connections they can create automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

I worked with 3 or 4 people at Cleverly and spent $1,500 over 3 months without a single lead. I was asked 3 questions on how to target my connections and despite my telling their rep to stay away from certain businesses they still sent it to them anyway. I do web design and they sent connection requests to other web design companies. Also, I see many other automated lead generators like Octopus that is way more targeted and costs less than $30/month. I'm going to try them next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unreliable Service and Serious Security Concerns"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

Their platform promises an all-in-one solution for LinkedIn outreach, and the Platinum package seems to offer a broad range of features, including multiple campaigns, follow-up messaging, and a dedicated account manager. The potential is there, but so far, we haven’t seen these benefits realized due to the execution problems we’ve encountered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

The biggest issue is their lack of security, which has been a serious concern. Requesting and storing login credentials in open text is unacceptable, and this has compromised our trust in their system. In addition, the slow rollout of promised features and immediate technical problems—like altered contact lists and incorrect messaging—have caused significant disruption to our outreach efforts. The lack of transparency and deflection from their support team has only made matters worse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cleverly 2.0 is amazing"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

What I like best about Cleverly is its ability to deliver targeted leads with minimal effort on our part. As a small firm, we appreciate the efficiency it provides in managing outreach campaigns. The platform's automation and personalized approach save us time and help us connect with the right prospects more effectively, which is essential for our growth and success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

For smaller firms or startups with tight budgets, Cleverly’s pricing can be a concern. However that can be objected with a powerful lead gen strategy and Account Managers like Alexa and Cheif of Staff Noemi on your side - this wont be an issue because they have been EXTREMELY thorough with our campaign. We've had Cleverly for two years and only ran one campaign that yeilded us over 3000 connections. That pricing we felt was too high in the begininng faded away quickly because of the return we got.

"Highly recommended for pipeline generation"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

Cleverly has been a total game-changer for our LinkedIn lead gen. Their team really got our business and nailed our target audience from the Day 1.

Their onboarding process made the whole setup fast and easy. Within no time, we were seeing a bunch of quality Ideal Client Profile leads rolling in.

Cleverly really know their stuff when it comes to LinkedIn, especially Sales Navigator. The way they dialed in our targeting was spot-on, and their messaging game is strong.

The results speak for themselves. Our pipeline is looking healthier than ever.

Special shoutout to Ahmed for his outstanding onboarding and his flexibility along the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

We have not experienced any downsides when working with Cleverly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Top Notch, Human Service, Results, Love Cleverly!"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

They are honest, super friendly, and professional; they don't overpromise, and they deliver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

I sometimes feel limited by the volume on LinkedIn, but they make a point of doing it right and long term versus burning through cash and violating LinkedIn rules... so I trust that's the answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effective cold emails, significant sales growth, highly recommend Cleverly!"
What do you like best about Cleverly?

They offer an easy and scalable way for our sales team to do cold email outreach. The Cleverly team is professional, responsive, and most importantly, they deliver results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

The service is great and brings in hot leads, but sometimes we want to learn about the cold/warm leads that go dead, and there isn't much transparency there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
