Material overview
G2.com material
How do our users feel about Umbraco?
To answer that question we've chosen to use the G2 software review platform to collect reviews and use these as marketing collateral. Even if you do not use G2, you have probably seen the G2 Grid before, that scores software against each other and ranks them.
Based on the grid they release quarterly badges to the highest performing companies.
Below is a list of the badges and other material you can use from G2. Please note the requirements for use.
G2 Grid
The grid can be accessed directly on G2.com and uses many factors to determine the rankings of each CMS.
The primary driver of the ranking is reviews on the platform - both in quantity and quality.
Market presence is driven by the quantity of reviews and Satisfaction is driven by the quality and the score of those reviews.
The grid is normally used for all segments, but can be segmented specifically into Small-Business, Mid-Market and Enterprise.
