G2 Crowd and Siftery join forces

We launched Siftery in early 2016 with the premise of bringing clarity to software buyers in this post-SaaS world of software overabundance. Since then, our database of products and social signals around them has grown exponentially, with literally hundreds of thousands of cloud applications and services clamoring for attention. As ironic as it sounds, choosing and managing software has never been more difficult, yet no definitive full-stack platform exists today where discovery, selection, procurement, and management of business software is a breeze. The “Amazon for software” is waiting to be built out.

Today we’re excited to announce that Siftery is joining forces with G2 Crowd to pursue this vision of building the most complete and intelligent marketplace for software buyers and vendors. A platform to find, compare and purchase software, and then track spend across the stack and optimize usage.

While Siftery has its strengths in data, community, and a deep understanding of who’s using what, G2 Crowd is the world’s #1 marketplace that connects software buyers and vendors in an unbiased way. More than two million users rely on G2 Crowd every month to help them find and buy the best software for their business. When we met the G2 Crowd team earlier this summer, it quickly became evident that their seasoned executive team, market momentum, and culture of enablement will help us in accelerating our mission.

There are lots of natural synergies between the two platforms and with this acquisition, we hope to give the B2B community what it hasn’t had until now, and what it needs and deserves.

A huge thank you to all the Siftery users and partners who have helped make Siftery what it is today. We hope you are as excited as we are about the journey ahead.
