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.

Pros

“For specific data requests, staff often needs to export different reports into Excel, and then use their own manual Excel skills to sort through data as needed, since Fonteva has limited report templates.”

Anna P.

Membership and Meetings Manager

“I admire Fonteva's engaging user interface for the staff-side, since many association databases are rigid, outdated, and not user friendly.”

Anna P.

Membership and Meetings Manager

“connected to each other in some way which allows for more diverse and flexible use cases.”

Anna P.

Membership and Meetings Manager

Pros

“The ability to look each other up, have our calendars at our fingertips, simplify online payments for different membership types, and apply our branding to all of it is fantastic!”

Ola K.

Volunteer

“The way that you can quickly get your directory online, edit the website design and host on your own domain are top tier and affordable options for any small business looking to increase income and exposure.”

Aneesha S.

Founder

“The founder really cares about this success and functions of his directory with his buyers/customers- he is 100% active answering questions and always looking for ways to expand and improve with the needs of his customers.”

Vicki M.

Owner

Cons

“We often run into several issues with flow (triggering a set of actions in the database, such as a purchase of a membership item activating a membership and sending a welcome email).”

Anna P.

Membership and Meetings Manager

“Fonteva is so complex that it can lead to troubleshooting, glitches, and other problems that can become a nightmare for your staff and members.”

Anna P.

Membership and Meetings Manager

“Additionally, some of the advanced features feel a bit pricey compared to other solutions in the market.”

Cons

“Currently, I can only filter by one business category at a time. Although there's an option for a "broader search," it doesn't quite meet my needs when I just want to focus on a few specific categories.”
