"Misleading, Poorly Delivered Service"
0/5
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"
0.5/5
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"
0/5
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"
5/5
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"
5/5
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.

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.

4/5
What do you like best about Cleverly?

What I love most about Cleverly is its ability to automate personalized outreach on LinkedIn. With its intuitive platform and customizable messaging, I can effortlessly connect with my target audience and nurture valuable relationships. The reporting dashboard is easy to use and the customer success team is always availalbe to quickly adapt messaging as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

Overall great, some of the messages sound a little robotic. If they could do a little research about the person I'm reaching to and add a little personalization to the messages, that would be game changer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Automate Linkedin connections and book meetings with new prospects"
5/5
What do you like best about Cleverly?

The biggest benefit for me is that Cleverly sends automatic follow-up messages once a contact has accepted the connection request and gives me an easy overview when I need to take action. Cleverly has many more interesting features, incorporating AI and insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cleverly?

The Sales Navigator filters are not always 100% accurate, so sometimes I get connections that are not really relevant for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
