"Perfect"

What do you like best about Vestd?

Not only is Vestd a great equity management platform, with a really intuitive UI with integrations with companies house and really clear advice on how to notify HMRC (which currently cannot be automated because of HMRC), their customer success team are super knowledgeable about all aspects of equity management and have an incredibly quick response time - a huge thank you to Mark Harrison and Becky Pollard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

Given legal contracts and company articles are generally very fluid and specific, there's some gaps with the fact you need to fit into Vestd's data model, but the customer success team are very supportive to help find either work arounds, or your set up can be implemented ad hoc for a small additional fee.

The support team and staff. The interface is also clean and easy to use but the team have provided the highest quality support and that is what I like best Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

Nothing. The whole option/share task itself is hard and complicated but Vestd just comes in and make it 99% easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Takes a lot of stress out for startup founders"
5/5
What do you like best about Vestd?

It's convenient, quick and easy. It standardises many manual steps while offering enough customisation (either from the app directly or as a service from the team) for advanced / one-off situations.

The subscription model is suitable for us, but others might prefer the more one-off payment models offered by competitors.

Customer service team is very supportive.

They also keep investing in the products which is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

We currently still plan for which shares / options to give future new hires / open roles in a spreadsheet, then we execute in Vestd. It would be nice to get rid of spreadsheets altogether.

It would be nice if advanced templates like shareholder agreements could also be provided, either like Rocket Lawyer or in partnership with them. If Vestd can also offer full data room features for non-shares / governance-related documents, or integrate with another platform that offers this, that would be very attractive.

"Amazing Vestd support"
5/5
What do you like best about Vestd?

The Vestd platform is amazing for businesses such as ours who need a relatively simple mechanism to record their equity activity, EMI schemes, and shareholder information and so much more.

For me however the real stars of this company are their support staff, they are just amazing, we could all learn from their approach, no issue or question is ever too much trouble they will guide and assist every step of the way and even check and send reminders to ensure you meet your deadlines, such a wonderful team.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

Nothing to add, really happy with the platform and everything Vestd provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exceptional service and support"
5/5
What do you like best about Vestd?

The platform itself allows you to manage all aspects of share and option management concisely in one place. The automations and integrations save you time. But while the platform is great, it is the team that makes Vestd stand out. From pre-sales to onboarding and the ever-helpful support team - not only do they support on the platform but provide excellent knowledge in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

Not often will I say this but nothing! We can action quickly, we are guided through unfamiliar processes and the platform stores everyone in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most frustrating SaaS product I have ever subscribed to"
1.5/5
What do you like best about Vestd?

Great concept, in theory. If they can get this right it will be a killer product that will solve a huge problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vestd?

it doesn't work as expected. It would have been magnitudes of time simpler for me to give the work to a solicitor, pay something extra (perhaps), and save a ton of time. Basically, after many months of setting this up, it has been an endless stream of emails and interactions with customer support to get it going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
