Absolutely terrible experience

Absolutely terrible experience, I rejoined their Beta program to generate leads and not only was the customer support and service terrible, the lead quality was garbage. I asked for phone numbers from the leads the sales agent refused to provide that and I asked for leads that were US based and they kept giving me India, Dubai, etc. I spent over $2,000 and didn't get even a single phone call out of it. Complete waste of time and money.

Hi Drew. We’re sorry to hear that your experience with the Pay Per Lead beta didn’t meet expectations. We value the partnership and recognize that we missed the mark around lead targeting, communication, and overall value. That’s not the experience we want for our customers. Pay Per Lead is still evolving, and feedback like yours helps us identify where improvements are needed.
We’d appreciate the opportunity to connect directly, review what happened, and explore how we can make this right and improve your experience moving forward.

Hello everyone,

Hello everyone,

I received this message from Clutch team. Is this normal? Are they holding the reviews until they get paid? also their paid leads and placement program was a scam I had to change the credit card to stop the service.

Thanks!

"Given the temporary processing delay, we cannot provide an exact timeframe for when your review will be processed. However, I can confirm that we have received your client’s review submissions from all three clients. You will receive an email notification once a new review is published to your profile."

"Do you require expedited handling? We offer paid packages that provide priority review processing and premium customer support, including personalized review collection and updates. Please let us know if you are interested in this option."

Hi Ahmed,

To provide some context, all reviews on Clutch go through a verification and moderation process before they’re published. Processing times can vary based on volume and verification checks. We’ve received all three of your clients’ reviews, and they’re currently in queue. You’ll be notified as soon as they’re published to your profile.

If you’re interested, we’d be happy to connect and talk through ways we can work together to optimize your Clutch profile overall, from improving visibility to highlighting your strengths more clearly for buyers.

As part of this, we can also walk through Clutch Verified, which unlocks added benefits such as enhanced profile credibility, priority support, and tools designed to help you get more value and traction from the platform. While completely optional, many companies find it helpful when they’re focused on standing out and driving more impact from their presence on Clutch.

Clutch has been a key marketing channel for my agency Map & Fire for several years. As a smaller, independent agency it gives us a space to show and verify the proof of our work – and advertise our agency to the exact people who are looking for our services around customer research, positioning, and messaging. Overall. Clutch has been a great home for us to gather testimonials and build trust with our audience.

Solid platform, but there are questions

I have very mixed feelings about this platform. On the one hand, it's a great platform, but on the other, there's a lot of seemingly unverified information there. Sometimes I look at company listings — the top ones, I assume, should be the best of the best, but there are fly-by-night companies there that don't have a decent website (one or two pages), no projects in their portfolios or case studies, no client reviews. How do they get there, and most importantly, why even show them at the top? Do something about them separately; there's no guarantee they'll complete the project, and you're mixing them up with trustworthy companies.

Hi Hanna. To help add some clarity, companies that complete our Clutch Verification process do appear higher in search results than unverified businesses. Verification allows us to confirm that a company is legitimate, and once that’s complete, we work closely with those providers to strengthen their profiles with authenticated reviews, portfolio details, and more.

When you come across a business with limited information, it’s often because they’re early in that process and haven’t yet built out their profile. As they add more reviews and proof of work their placement naturally adjusts.

Reviews Get Lost and Are Not Recovered

I wrote a review about an agency I work with on Clutch and received an email saying it had been received and would be reviewed for editorial standards. It's now 9 days later and I haven't heard anything and my review hasn't been published. Their support team did not personally respond to my inquiry and instead sent me a form email that didn't apply to my circumstance.

I have since logged into their portal and cannot find the review that I wrote. The agency I wrote it for said that they've had this happen with other clients.

So Clutch seems to have a buggy system that prevents it's main use case -- writing reviews for agencies -- from being realized.

If I were an agency, I would never purchase this tool because it's reliable and can be frustrating for clients who take the time to write a review for them and have it completely disappear into the nether.

Hidden cancellation, silent auto-renewal, no reminder

Clutch.co provides no clear in-dashboard cancellation; the path is effectively hidden. Before auto-renewal, I received no timely notice. A charge was scheduled, but I had unlinked my card in advance, so no actual debit occurred.

This falls short of Washington, DC requirements for annual auto-renewals (advance notice with a clear cancellation route) and the federal ROSCA standard for simple cancellation mechanisms.

Please cancel the renewal/invoice, confirm my subscription is disabled, and make online cancellation obvious.

The final article was beautifully put together and highlighted multiple contributors throughout, which really stood out.

Clutch is one of the best review platforms as it helped my SaaS business build a good online reputation and display my hard-earned reviews on my website. It also helped me validate my business work and improve brand awareness through a trusted online directory. It could help build visibility and get the badge that brings a lot of credibility and proof. Moreover, I could find a lot of potential clients that are looking for businesses like mine.
