"MAVEN WILL NOT PAY EXPERTS!"

3/5

What do you like best about Maven?

They send appropriate consults and surveys based on my expertise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

ALL EXPERTS BEWARE: THEY WILL NOT PAY YOU! I have consulted for them on a multi-step project about 4 months ago now and still have not received payment. They keep stating that they are waiting on the client but 4 months is an extremely long time frame. I feel that they have used my expertise for free and they will not pay me. There is no customer service phone number to reach them. You can only reach them by email. I have emailed them now and they are not responding. At this point I'm sure they will not pay me and I will not be doing anymore consults with them until I have received my payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Maven:

Do not use Maven as an expert consulting company. There are many other expert consulting companies that will pay their experts and value them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Maven solving and how is that benefiting you?

They are connecting experts with businesses to provide more information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Payment Process Issues Overshadow Maven's Potential"

1.5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

I find Maven's detailed projects valuable because they collect holistic information. I also appreciate the relevant projects they provide, especially if the payment process is streamlined. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

I have been participating as an expert in this domain, but the payment part of Maven is the longest and most cumbersome. I'm struggling to get a payment from the past month, and all I know is there is a 'technical problem' in processing the payment. The status of the problem and timeline for resolution is absent. I am inclined to decline future opportunities as getting a payment becomes a headache with Maven. I regularly face payment issues with them. I would suggest they improve the payment process by reducing the turnaround time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exceptional Expert Network with User-Friendly Features"

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Our clients like the self-service nature of Maven Research, which allows them to specify the type of interviewee they are looking for. It's helping our clients complete their projects more rapidly and explore unfamiliar markets. The cost of Maven experts seems lower than other similar services. We've enjoyed working with the people at Maven as they are very friendly and helpful. I think if Maven can continue to make their self-service expert search user friendly, it would be appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

No complaints Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Interview Quality at a Reasonable Price"

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Reasonable pricing (with regards to the quality of the interview we got) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

Probably the talent pool is still on the smaller side Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Maven:

Unlike many expert networks that require large subscription commitments, Maven uses a different pricing model. This makes it particularly suitable for students with limited budgets who want access to high-quality expert interviews and the opportunity to tap into professional networks when cold outreach isn’t working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Maven solving and how is that benefiting you?

Provided a project-based template that allows us to input our needs and specifications in detail, so that we can identify a highly suitable expert for an in-depth interview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use with Top-Notch Expertise"

5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

Ease of use, quality of expertise, responsive and professional customer support team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

Sometimes they don't have experts in the (very very specific) area we need Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Maven:

Some areas have fewer experts than others, so have a few test runs to see if it works for you. Otherwise, don't hesitate! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Maven solving and how is that benefiting you?

Provides subject matter expert consultants to answer our questions on a very broad and varied range of technologies and markets. We are a technology transfer and innovation department at a University, so in our case we are mostly looking for customer discovery/product and market validation.

4/5

What do you like best about Maven?

- wide coverage of expert, specifically experts who work for SMBs (Indeed, I failed to find experts of this segment in other platforms)

- small amount of minimum usage (other platforms require you to pay a lot up front, for example, 10k USD)

- quick response from its consultants (you may have it with other platforms, but this platform also has it) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

UI design of this platform is not best user-friendly, but Maven consultants helped me quickly so I did not face a serious problem Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good service and access to expertise"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Maven?

I like being able to create targeted interview campaigns with subject matter experts. I also like being able to validate the expertise for the interviewees myself. Maven account rep was always helpful in setting up projects and troubleshooting. Maven team also actively recruited people when expertise was not available in their consultant pool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Maven?

There are extra charges for videos and transcripts. This should be included in the service. Interview participants were sometimes nowhere near the correct expertise, although this improved with time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
