How we create independent software reviews

If you’re looking at buying small business software, chances are you’ve come across various software reviews on the web.  But can you trust them? As you’ve probably realized, not all reviews are created equal…

A few key questions to consider when looking at software reviews are:

  • Is it an unbiased judgement or simply an “advertorial” promotion?
  • How qualified is the reviewer? Do they understand both business & technology?
  • Did they use a systematic process, or just rely on gut feel?

Here at Software Shortlist, we pride ourselves on delivering high quality, reliable, independent reviews of software for small business.  So, we’ve put the hard word on ourselves and published a clear software review policy that addresses many of the questions and concerns that people typically raise when looking at software reviews.

As you’ll see from the policy, Software Shortlist’s software reviews are:

  • Unbiased, editorially independent reviews
  • Conducted by qualified experts who also understand small business
  • Based on a rigorous and systematic approach

We hope that by publishing this policy, we answer most of the  questions you have about our software reviews. But if we’ve missed something, or you’d like to clarify anything about our review process, please contact us.  And if you think you’ve got what it takes to review a new software category, we’re always on the look out for the right people, so let’s talk.
