Red Flag Alert Reviews & Product Details

Red Flag is a reliable and easy to use platform that delivers clear, timely information that you can trust. It helps you spot potential issues early and stay informed without the clutter. Highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes its tedious removing data that is not needed. Some of the information is repetitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Red Flag Alert system itself is useful and meets all the requirements I had for business credit checks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My experience after 12 months has left me disappointed. Upon renewal, I took the time to compare the market with competitors such as CreditSafe, only to discover that Red Flag Alert had significantly overcharged me for their services.

After raising the issue, they did reduce the price, and I re-entered into the contract based on the understanding that we could exit if certain changes occurred within our business. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a poor decision. When we later requested a refund for the unused period after making those business changes, Red Flag Alert refused, despite previously agreeing to these terms. This was extremely frustrating, as they did not honor the commitments they outlined during our initial discussions.

While we continue to use the system as part of a broader network, I would strongly advise brokers or small businesses seeking a credit reference platform to consider alternatives like CreditSafe, which provided me with a competitive offer from the outset and a more transparent approach.

In hindsight, I feel misled and overcharged by Red Flag Alert, and this experience has left a sour taste regarding their business practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked the simplicity of the tool, it doesnt need to be high tech and fancy as it is a data platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be quite overwhelming, there wasnt much help on hand.

It'd be good if there was a guide telling you what certain things mean - especially if you're not a season finance pro Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing it was all really bad I would not recommend this at all to anyone Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This site doesnt work efficantly, Searches often do not appear leaving you to go else where to find company numbers. The reporting is complicated and the monitoring never worked. I sent many e mails regarding the system not working correctly. Too expensive and a really poor service. Which is a shame Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the flexibility that RFA gives me along with the metrics they use and bespoke searches they can do. I have been using RFA for three years and plan on using more in future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not alot. Sometimes i wish that the system would be ever so slightly faster but overall its very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having recently partnered with Red Flag, I've continually been impressed with the way they work. Nothing is too much trouble, help is always available and the product the offer has already enhanced our approach to targeting customers in or sector. They are flexible, willing to chat and talk things through and give great feedback and options that can and are workable and add benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike - some more customisation of search functions and the ability to save would be really handy, but that's a very minor observation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They've taken publicly available information and presented it in a way that's straightforward to use and their flag system is helpful and accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In demo they'll show you a company with a huge volume of information, but when you get under the skin of it, for a lot of smaller businesses, what they have is much thinner and mostly available for free from Companies House. Not that this was unexpected given that large companies attract a lot more column inches and evaluation, but more info for smaller firms would be helpful.

If you're searching by SIC codes, it's only as good as the information put into Companies House and it's depressingly rare for companies to have accurate SIC codes.

BUT...our login stopped working and resetting did not resolve. After speaking with them on the phone, we were told they would sort out. This didn't happen so we stopped paying their invoices, so they pursued us legally. Given we weren't able to use their service, threatening us with legal action felt extremely heavy handed. It's hard to recommend a company who behaves like this when all we needed was password assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Red Flag Alert saves me a huge amount of time researching potential prospects. It's slick and has a vast amount of information available that it would be difficult to find elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I highlighted to Red Flag Alert that I could benefit from extra search parameters. To be fair, they have already started developing what was requested now and have let me trial the beta version. Very impressive so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Real-time information to help reduce time prospecting.

Finding leads can be a challenge and finding leads where you can remove risky businesses even more so - this a real key feature of this platform.

If you work in commercial finance this is the go to system, bar none! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if there was more video training content. The training from the onboarding team was great but it would be nice if there was an area to go to for refreshers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are a small independent insolvency company based in Lincolnshire. Following a series of calls we agreed to a demonstration of the system to see what it may be able to offer us. I must admit at first we were a little sceptical that it was just another sales call, but how wrong we were! The demonstration by Richard was very clean and easy to follow and the information provided from the system was incredibly impressive. I believe Richard provided us with a quote for the system within 24 hours and we signed up straight away, although we were offered further demonstrations if required.

Since signing up the process of getting started has been very straight forward including training and an account manager being provided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It sometimes can be a little unclear on the system when a company has moved from say 1 Reg Flag to 2 Red Flag or how long it's been in that category, although it's not necessary to know this information, as fundamentally the most important information is knowing what category it is in now.
