Do you look into the Testimonial section for SaaS purchase?


Hello HN,

I want to respect users time when collecting the testimonials and ask for only the most useful aspect. Herewith, like to consider HN community opinions on whether you as a Saas user concerned about clientele and testimonials? If yes, what is the one vital thing you look in testimonials, to buy the subscription?

Your views and experiences will be a great help.

TIA

To me testimonials are mostly useful for seeing if a SaaS product has a number of actual decently sized paying customers. Or in other words, for understanding the chance of the product ceasing to exist in 6 months due to the company running out of funding or product-market fit.
