Side note: Which methods does G2 use to rank software solutions in the Grid®?
With the aim of making B2B procurement transparent, G2 lists, structures and rates software and providers based on different guidelines, methods, and data. Product reviews by users and aggregated information from online sources and social networks are all considered. G2 applies a specific algorithm to this data to determine values for customer satisfaction and market presence, which form the two axes of a respective G2 Grid® in a software category.
The G2 Grid® ranks software providers in these four quadrants: Contenders, Leaders, Niche & High Performers.
Customer satisfaction
The satisfaction score is influenced by the following factors:
- Customer satisfaction with specific product features
- Popularity and statistical significance based on the number of reviews received
- Quality and comprehensiveness of the reviews received
- Age and topicality of the reviews
- Overall customer satisfaction based on the Net Promoter Score (NPS)
Market presence
The figure for market presence is derived from a combination of 15 metrics. Thereby, G2 reviews, publicly available information and external sources are considered and measured using the following criteria:
- Number of employees
- Number and topicality of the reviews
- Web presence
- Social media presence
- Growth (including personnel growth and growth of the web presence)
- Age of the provider
- Employee satisfaction and commitment
The awards are given quarterly according to the software’s ranking within the four quadrants of the G2 Grid®.
And how do companies benefit from the G2 Grid®?
In the ever-growing technology sector, companies have an overwhelming number of software products to choose from. So, the question arises: How do I choose the right solution? The G2 Grid® provides help in the form of an overview and can be used by companies for product comparisons and analyzing market trends to quickly choose the best software for their business.
