What do you like best?

the speed of the type-ahead suggestions is a key positive for this solution as opposed to others that merely validate what is typed or suggest alternates in lieu of what was typed.

We have seen an increase in the quality of data we are getting at checkout and an overall faster flow through the checkout flow as well. We believe this has had a positive increase in conversion rate as well as customer satisfaction.

In addition we have tied this in with Braintree and now get better hit rates on exact match for billing zip codes which we use for fraud controls.

Customer service/support has been a key benefit as well when a couple of questions have come up we always get good answers relatively quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

using corporate AMEX at checkout was not supported (VISA etc worked) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

start with a trial (DEMO mode) - you will notice value fairly quickly (or not). Its an easy purchase if you see the value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Decrease fraud mismatch rates for Billing Zip Codes

What do you like best?

Addressy looks good and is simple to use. Adding it to your site is a straight forward process and made even easier if you use one of the services with existing integrations such as Magento or WordPress. The data is continuously updated and fresh. Performance is very fast and the interface clean. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

We occasionally had inaccurate data but are in a small location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

UK customers might prefer PCA Predict which is powered by the same technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple and quick integration - up and running for a new install in about 30 seconds.

The support is great, with a member of the support team helping us with any assistance we need until any problems are resolved. This has been important where our integration method needed some extra input as it wasn't a standard install.

Reliable web based system with instant updates so that we don't have to constantly update our own systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike?

Nothing that we dislike that we've found so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

The trial option is a good way to see if the product will work for you and you'll be able to see how easy it is to implement.

Would recommend contacting their support team if you need help getting started as they're always friendly and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Rapid entry and accuracy of address details which are being entered means a better customer experience and less room for errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
