What do you like best about Grade.us?

The benefits of online reviews across multiple platforms are significant to a local small business branding and growth. When a client requested a software system to allow near real time streaming of new reviews to their website, I chose Grade.us from among the similar services. Grade.us gathers nightly from the listings on Google+, Facebook, Yelp or any other directories that my client's customers use frequently for reviews. I can manage that whole set of review site choices and provide my client with simple Review Us emails that they can send to each customer. I have since added 4 more clients to the Grade,us system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grade.us?

I have discussed future upgrades for Grade.us and recommendations I get from my clients, but wouldn't call them "dislikes". I am very happy with the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Grade.us solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping local businesses current with new reviews as they are posted online and giving them a mechanism to ask for reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Grade.us?

Hands down, the support. Anytime I need something, have a silly question, or just need clarification they are all over it. I never wait more than 10 minutes for a response. The platform itself is great and serves the needs of over 1000 clients we have on it. I also like that there are ongoing improvements and not staying static. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grade.us?

I wish there was a mobile app for users of the platform. Other than that, I like the simplicity of the system. There have been issues of late when it comes to adding SMS numbers in large cities, which causes issues with the clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks for this fantastic review, Craig. I shared your kind words with the support team and they really valued your appreciation!

Since many of our customers are agencies and we are definitely aligned with your goals and are excited to roll out a few features in the near future that are going to knock your socks off, help you find more prospects, and make your existing clients even happier.

What do you like best about Grade.us?

As a user of a previous system (Reputation Loop) my account was moved to Grade.Us after Reputation Loop was purchased. Although the migration was a bit rocky, I like the ability to fully customize the review experience for my members. As an agency, we need flexibility in how we help our own clients generate reviews. The software provides multiple review stream widgets, as well as customizable email and text campaigns. However, what keeps me with Grade.Us is our support contact, Valerie. Val was our support contact at Reputation Loop, and moved to Grade.Us to support us here. Val is by far the best customer support person I've ever dealt with, going above and beyond to help us get the most out of the system and to help us work through the bugs and issues that pop up with any software. Val is tireless in her quest to make us happy and help us provide the best support to our own members. A software product is nothing without support, and Val helps to offset any other failings we find with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grade.us?

There are a few issues I dislike, but not anything that would stop me from using the software. I would like some new features, and like many users I would always like bugs to be fixed faster, but overall I'm a happy user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Grade.us solving and how is that benefiting you?

Grade.Us is part of an overall online reputation management service we provide, and has helped us to collect and display reviews for hundreds of our members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Grade.us?

the ability to manage all accounts from on log in, can provide user's magic links instead of giving full access to profiles, the ability to enable API keys for websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grade.us?

There are limited customization options when it comes to having multiple profiles under one account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Grade.us solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have solved the issue of users struggling to gather customer reviews, and users have realized the benefit of utilizing one platform to manage all of their reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Garrett Sussman of Grade.Us

Thanks Ashley! Those magic links are really helpful for enterprises to include their employees in the review management process. Ultimately, we're happy to hear that Grade.us has helped you remove the friction of getting customers to leave reviews. If you want to let us know how we can improve customizing your multi-location profiles, let's connect!

What do you like best about Grade.us?

Very easy to use and set up new clients. The onboarding process is less than 10 minutes per client. And the customer support has been great. The few times I've had questions/issues they team has been quick to respond and resolve everything. You can easily embed the code into websites and also set up email drip campaigns to ask for feedback from recent customer/patients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grade.us?

There is honestly nothing about Grade.us I dislike. I've been using it for years and it's a great solution for our needs. The pricing is very fair and it's easy to set up and use with our clients. I wish all of our agency software tool platforms were this well designed and managed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Grade.us:

Give Grade.us a serious look if you're responsible for managing multiple clients/accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Grade.us solving and how is that benefiting you?

Every business online today needs to be aware of online reviews. Grade.us allows us to easily manage/track reviews as they are posted but even more importantly, helps us help our clients proactively solicit feedback (and reviews). This information has been valuable for many to improve operational issues - in addition to adding to the number of positive reviews posted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
