Doodle review sources, coverage and method

The overall 4.1 / 5 score is recency-weighted: newer reviews count more (weight 0.9 per month of age), regardless of portal.

Doodle: reviews per portal
Portal Avg. rating Count Weight Latest Source
Capterra 4.6 / 5 1,499 87.9% View profile ↗
Trustpilot 2.6 / 5 207 12.1% View profile ↗
Weighted overall 4.1 / 5 1,706 100%

Period covered: 2014-09 – 2026-11. Reviews older than 24 months stay in the trend charts but no longer feed the headline figures.

What this analysis cannot cover

  • Only publicly visible reviews are included; nothing behind a login, and no reviews submitted to us directly.
  • Sentiment is classified from the review text, never from the star rating. Unclassified reviews count toward totals but not toward sentiment shares.
What this analysis covers

Period covered: Sept 2014 – Nov 2026

And what it cannot cover:

  • Trustpilot exposes roughly the 200 most recent reviews publicly; older reviews sit behind a login.

How the numbers are made

Every review is read once by a language model that labels its themes and sentiment and picks short verbatim passages. Recent reviews weigh more than old ones (each month of age discounts the weight by 10%). Quotes are shown exactly as written, linked to the original review, and cryptographically signed so you can check they have not been altered.Full methodology ↗ · Transparency report ↗
