It does things, but never great

After reading the response to my review I adjusted it from 3 to 1 taco.
I tried to keep a positive angle on the situation and leave room for a different point of view, but the response strengthened my feeling that the ratings on this deal are too good to be true.
The response states things that, in my reality, simply are not true.

Especially after I went out of my way and had a video call session with whom I guess to be the founder, whom I even offered to help understand my questions more and learn about my use cases, but who seemingly did not care.

I still think there might be some value for some use cases and buyers, but I am giving this 1 taco so it hopefully will get noticed and helps inform buyers to really check the offer and be a bit sceptical about what is offered.

Building software is not easy, but I see too many sign of dishonesty here, that I highly recommend to stay alert at least, but stay away from this offer at best.

----

My use case was to identify leads and get a good opener to start a conversation with prospects; e.g. your SEO is bad, your accessibility is lacking, etc.
I did not check the CRM or email outreach functionality.

My impression is that the tool is very clunky to use and hard to understand.
While it has an okay UI, it is not clear what even the few elements do exactly and how they impact the search results. I was left wondering whether I am looking at live data, pre-scraped data, purchased contact list, ....
The app intends to provide some scoring of leads, but it is unclear how the scores are formed. If I understood the founder correctly the score is baaed on the completeness of google business listing data. But then he also mentioned it includes a SEO score.
I don't know... The conversation and explanation did not feel very convincing to me and I find the claims a bit too fantastic, but maybe they are true.
For me "maybe" is not good enough to rely on when it comes to my lead pipeline.

I think even if the results are good, then the app UX has ways to go.
I suggest you run some manual tests to assess the quality of the results yourself. Maybe this deal is a steal for you. Especially if you consider all the other features that are included in this product.

Anyway. For me it is not at this point.

Hello Michael,

While you might have some reservations about this tool, the right thing you would have done is to reach out to our support with your question and have us clarify the areas you seem to be confused about because, from your assertions, you needed some clarity which you didn't bother asking from the support.

For example, you made mention of not knowing if the data is live data or purchased - our Bing and Google lead options are all live data. We integrated with the platforms to scrape directly from them (using API).

The leadscore is clear. The higher the score, the more optimized the business listing is and vice versa.

The SEO report and ADA compliance/accessibility report are working .

We would love to talk with you and clarify all the areas you are confused about.

You can book a Zoom session with us using our calendly link: https://calendly.com/smatleads/30min
