"Great Crowdfunding Platform"
4/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

I love that it's not an all-or-nothing deal. You get what you get, even if you don't meet your funding goal. That being said, you also get extra time to meet your goal. You also have a charitable crowdfunding platform option. Plus, you get to promote on your fave social media sites, and that's the type of flexibility today's users love. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

Sadly, sometimes you need a business license in order for you to use those funds. Freelance people, artists, and writers are among some of those who might feel obstructed by this. Also, high fees! It can charge a lot on the amount raised :( Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Crowdfunding made easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

Indiegogo is not as strict as its competitors, which I think is great as it gives the individual more room to explore and create. I love that people can also use Indiegogo for fundraisers as well. The fact that Indiegogo allows campaign creators to offer investment opportunities is something that I think makes it a better option for so many. Customer support is also wonderful, which is something that I believe is extremely important when choosing a company to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

Something that I dislike about Indiegogo would definitely be that a lot of people do not think of it when they think of crowdfunding. I think that Indiegogo really needs to step it up in their marketing department so that more people will choose them and "backer" (the people donating) will be more likely to donate to campaigns that are using Indiegogo.

"Best crowdfunding platform"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

After researching and looking at many of the various crowdfunding platforms, I knew I wanted to use Indiegogo - they've been the best option for a small organization like mine. They offer great support and resources. I've been very pleased with the whole experience of Indigogo from start to finish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

The fees are fairly high. It's also not the most popular of crowdfunding platforms and it seems like few people organically discover projects via Indiegogo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Indiegogo is a good alternative to Kickstarter of you want flexibility"
4/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

I used indiegogo for a crowdfunding campaign and had decent results. Kickstarter is all or nothing - if you don't raise the amount you have set for your business as a goal, you get nothing. But Indiegogo still allows you to receive the funding minus a larger fee if you don't achieve your goal. The interface was easy to use and update information with.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

Indiegogo I felt did not give me any kind of social media or seo boost. I also received email spam from lots of marketing companies promising me more eyeballs for my campaign, which got annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Indiegogo not a store!"
2/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

A lot of innovation and ideas are presented to the users. Stuff is pre sold at amazing price! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

Its not a store, you back a project, you have to be prepared that it might not come to fruition. Some things are lost on the way and never make it to the maker or the market. Money is lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Indiegogo to fund making a music video"
5/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

I used Indiegogo with the campaign Savant (The electronic musician) used to fund making a music video. It worked well for the campaigner as well as the contributors. The Selected Perks are great to drive contribution amounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

The contribution can't be refunded through Indiegogo because it is outside of refund policy. The responsibility falls to the campaign owner for a refund. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Contributer Review"
3/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

I like that you can create a page to help support your entrepreuer-ship. It's a good way to buy items before it hits mainstream and prices skyrocket. It's a good way to gain monetary support, besides taking out a huge loan that you have to pay back within a certain amount of time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

I don't like that they charge for the service. Kickstarter doesn't charge as much and there's a ton of more options for outreach! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing platform for creators"
5/5
What do you like best about Indiegogo?

Indiegogo has helped revolutionize and redefined the idea of a creative marketplace, allowing people to put forth their ideas and creations and bring it to life all the while creating a sustainable business model for all parties concerned Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Indiegogo?

There's still ample amounts of fraud on the platform and accountability and fulfillment is one aspect they haven't cracked yet. Credibility is entirely dependent on the quality and trust-worthiness of the people selling on the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
