Beacon reviews

Better than what we left
Not perfect, but every problem we have raised got an answer and most got fixed.

Worth the switch
Easy to hand over to a junior marketer, which was the deciding factor for us.

Six months in and it still does the job. Nothing surprising, which is the point.

Fast, and it stays fast as our volume grows. That is rarer than it should be.

Solid day-to-day. We hit one limitation on reporting but support suggested a workable path.

Fine for what we need. Not the most powerful option but the least annoying.

How reviews are weighted
Volume raises confidence. It does not overpower quality.
Verified beats anonymous
Work-email and billing verification carry materially more weight than an unverified account.
Reputation compounds
Reviewers whose contributions are consistently marked helpful influence the score more.
Recency matters
Recent evidence weighs more, but history stays visible so you can see the trajectory.
Bursts get flagged
Sudden volume from one referrer, shared fingerprints or vendor IP ranges trigger review.
