Our commitment

Independent research methodology

Verified user reviews

GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.

Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

How GetApp ensures transparency

GetApp lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. GetApp is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

COMET

Integration rating: 1.0 (1)

“COMET is the platform used by NZ Football and has to be used by clubs. Friendly Manager already takes a lot of the COMET pain away for clubs, but we'd love to see more integration so we use Friendly Manager for everything. COMET is a terrible product and creates a lot of pain for volunteer organisations.”
