Good questions.
What is SoftwareReviewHQ?
An independent site that reviews business software in plain English. Each review covers what the tool does, what it costs, its strengths and weaknesses, and who it suits.
Do you test the software yourselves?
Most pages are research-based: we work from vendor documentation, public pricing pages and published user feedback, and every page is labelled so you know. When a page is based on hands-on use, it says so.
How do you make money?
Some links to vendors may be affiliate links, which means we can earn a commission if you sign up. It costs you nothing extra and vendors cannot pay for a better write-up.
Are the prices up to date?
Each page shows the date its pricing was last checked. Software prices change often, so treat ours as a guide and confirm on the vendor site before you buy.
Can I suggest a tool to review?
Yes. Use the contact page to tell us what you want covered, or to report something that is out of date.
