Akin to The People’s Choice Awards for tech companies, G2’s Best Software Awards rank the world’s best software companies and products based on authentic, timely reviews from real users. Tech companies on the list have proven their commitment and value based on hundreds, if not thousands of verified reviews.
“It’s an honor to be recognized as a Best Global Seller and the Best Freelancer Platform by users,” says Eric Gilpin, Senior Vice President of Sales at Upwork. “We’re proud to provide people with a home where they can grow their businesses, take control of their careers, and create meaningful work relationships. This recognition from customers validates our strategy and commitment to helping both businesses and independent professionals unlock their true potential.”
The lists G2 created are based on data from over one million authentic, verified customer reviews. These reviews were written and published between Jan. 1, 2020 and Dec. 31, 2020.
“This isn’t a subjective list based on a few peoples’ opinions,” explains G2 CEO, Godard Abel. “With the highest traffic and engagement, largest selection of product and services, and highest quality data, G2 analyzes more than 4 million data points to determine which products and companies make the list.”
