Enterprise review platforms charge vendors for top rankings. Your procurement team is buying from a paid shortlist. We analyze what real IT teams actually say — in forums, Slack channels, and private discussions with zero financial incentive.
Your shortlist is a paid ad.
When review platforms charge vendors $50K/month to be a "Leader," your procurement team isn't evaluating software — they're clicking through a sponsored listing.
We built RealReviews because we were tired of procurement teams making million-dollar decisions based on vendor marketing disguised as "independent reviews."
No paid placements. No sponsored badges. Companies can't pay to appear on our list or influence their scores.
We analyze millions of discussions from Reddit and forums — places where people have no financial incentive to lie.
Every product on our list scores 4.0 or higher from real user discussions. That's the only criterion.
We've already analyzed 6,978+ Reddit discussions to rank payroll software. See how real user sentiment compares to paid review platforms.
