G2 Crowd is a peer-to-peer, business solutions review platform headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

Until recently, selecting business solutions was hard, risky and inherently biased. G2 Crowd empowers business buying decisions by highlighting the voice of the customer. Our review platform leverages more than 500,000 independent and authenticated user reviews read by more than 2 million buyers each month. Our model brings transparency to B2B buying—changing the way decisions are made.

G2 Crowd’s mission is to provide the insights business professionals need to gain confidence in their buying decisions and become more successful in their jobs.

G2 Crowd is backed by $100M in capital from IVP, Emergence Capital, Accel, Pritzker Group, its founders and many industry leaders.

The current approach to buying business technology is broken. Buyers spend too much time sifting through spin, reading outdated analyst reports, and sitting through endless meetings. After all this, buyers still lack confidence in their choice of technology and most projects fail to meet their expectations. By capturing collective wisdom, G2 Crowd will make purchasing business technology as easy as buying consumer products.
