### "Upfluence: 10/10 - would sign up again."

September 12, 2019

5.0

Switching to Upfluence has been a game changer for my team. Advanced options that allow you to fine-tune your searches, detailed breakdowns of all of the most relevant creator metrics, an intuitive project management system, and easy to use campaign monitoring tools all combine to create a one-stop solution for all of our project needs. Oh, and customer support leaves you feeling like a person rather than just another number on their to-do list.

Pros

\- Strong search functions that let you see how effective your search terms are at filtering the results in real time. Can filter by almost any metric. - Detailed metric reports of the data I actually need, not fluff. Activity heat maps are a welcome addition. - Intuitive project and communication management systems. If you have to manage campaigns that involve numerous content creators, the systems is a blessing. - Friendly and knowledgeable customer support that makes you feel like a real person. Extra points for this.

Cons

\- We work through a VPN that occasionally has high latency, so I don't like that the system needs to re-download information if I accidentally click away from a content creator's data overview. - Database mismatches/errors can only be corrected by customer service. Completely understandable situation, but it can be annoying if you're under a time-crunch.

Reason for choosing Upfluence

I picked Upfluence because the company had a good reputation according to my research. More importantly Upfluence's software provided me with the suite of tools that were missing from my previous software solution.

### "Efficient Solution for Streamlining Influencer Marketing"

September 23, 2024

5.0

Upfluence has been a game-changer for managing our influencer marketing strategies over the past 7 months. The platform offers a wide selection of influencers, making it simple to find the perfect match for our brand. We love the detailed filters that allow us to narrow down by audience, niche, and engagement level. One of the standout features is the integration with Shopify and Social media platforms, which works flawlessly, making collaboration and tracking performance a breeze. The data and analytics are clear and provide valuable insights that help us optimise campaigns in real time. The reporting capabilities are easy to navigate and provide the metrics we need to gauge the success of each campaign. Their support team has also been fantastic—quick to respond and always helpful with any inquiries or issues.

Pros

Extensive influencer database Real-time performance tracking Easy-to-use reporting tools Excellent customer support

Cons

The learning curve can be steep initially Pricing might be on the higher side for smaller businesses

### "Do Not Get Trapped in a Contract"

March 20, 2022

1.0

Just like another reviewer, we were sold a 6-month contract, but when I reached out about canceling after not being able to use the software at all, we were told the contract was 12 months. I wish I had recorded the demo, as this was not what we were told at all.

Pros

The demo made using Upfluence as an influencer management system seem smooth & trouble-free, promoting that we would have an account manager to assist us with set up. Not the case.

Cons

From the beginning, there were so many bugs in the software. It is NOT user-friendly and we never were able to get it working properly to even run 1 campaign. Our account manager had 1 initial set-up meeting with us and was unreachable after that. We emailed the account manager & sales rep who sold us on the demo for a full month with no response. NONE. We proceeded to try to work through the buggy system on our own with no resolve. After reaching out to customer support that we wanted to cancel, suddenly we got an email from our account manager asking what the issue was and stating that our emails had landed in their spam folder. I'm not sure how we went from having emails that were received in the beginning to suddenly landing in the spam, but go figure. We then booked a 2nd meeting with them and were still not able to launch a working campaign.

### "This influencer marketing and affiliate software combo is the real deal"

June 30, 2023

5.0

Upfluence has been a game-changer for our real estate comapny. From influencer discovery to campaign management, their platform offers a seamless experience that has significantly improved our ROI and brand visibility.

Pros

One thing that stood out to me about Upfluence was their robust analytics and reporting. I could track the performance of my influencer campaigns in real-time, monitor key metrics, and measure the ROI effectively. It helped me optimize my strategies and make data-driven decisions.

Cons

There are instances where I encountered occasional glitches or slow loading times within the Upfluence platform, but these are infrequent issues.

### "Excellent platform with a seamless onboarding experience"

August 19, 2025

5.0

My experience with Upfluence has been really positive. The onboarding specialist, \[sensitive content hidden\], was incredibly supportive, and our sessions gave me the confidence I needed to set up our campaigns successfully. The platform itself is intuitive and user-friendly, and it’s now an essential tool for managing both influencer and UGC campaigns.

Pros

I had a great onboarding experience! Upfluence makes influencer search, campaign planning, execution, and reporting so easy and accurate.

Cons

At this stage, I don’t have any cons – I’m just really happy to be using Upfluence. It’s such an incredible time saver!

### "The one stop shop for influencer marketing campaigns"

April 25, 2025

5.0

Upfluence has kick started our influencer campaign at our company. We had no structure and I am new to working with influencers. So not only has learning the platform helped with nuances in workflow, but our onboarding rep was there with me every step of the way to make sure I understood how the platform functioned. The rep even came to our conversations with a wealth of influencer marketing knowledge which helped our team understand how to work with influencers and gave useful campaign ideas and tips! Having the onboarding specialist made all the difference in understanding the platform's full capabilities and ease our concerns with being new to influencer marketing strategy.

Pros

The all-in-one functionality of the platform makes searching, working with, and reporting influencer success on campaigns so much easier. I like that it takes a campaign from start to finish.

Cons

Some features when building the campaigns are locked in and cannot be edited. If there's was an editing feature I think it would help, but most of the issues stemmed from my newness to the platform.

August 11, 2025

We are currently at the beginning stages of using the tool. Our onboarding experience with \[sensitive content hidden\] was amazing and we are now well-equipped to start our first campaigns.

Pros

Upfluence is really great for accurate influencer search, campaign planning & execution, and reporting.

Cons

Not much I can say yet. Sometimes, there are inaccuaries with the creator's location. That might lead to the location filter not being super reliable.

### "Upfluence is not bad, but it's not great"

October 9, 2025

4.0

The right steps are here and this could be a brilliant software product, but there are spots that make it feel lackluster and fall short of greatness

Pros

Upfluence has a good UI management system, and it's rather easy to see the mass variety of users and influencers to select from

Cons

Upfluence lacks depth in its search, it was rather hard for me to find the right kind of influencer without going through lists and lists of influencers

### "Great platform"

July 21, 2023

4.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] is our CSM and he has made this path a lot easier, no doubt he's been key to us! In the beginning, the platform seems to be hard to use since you have to do many setups, however, once you set up the first campaign the process is super easy, organized, and pretty smooth. It's a great platform.

Pros

It's very easy to set up everything, and to keep an eye on the performance.

Cons

Selecting the variants of the products you want to offer should be easier.Add an option to create affiliate campaigns.

10 on 10! It's super easy to use, and finding and working with influencers is a breeze. The analytics are spot-on and help us understand what's working. Plus, their customer support is always there when we need them. It's a great tool that's made our influencer marketing so much easier!

Pros

Really amazing tool for influencer marketing to sell. We work with brands that sell online, and we would not use any other tool to track sales through influencers.

Cons

We have been using it for a while, and although the start took a little to onboard the tool and get started, we are beyond happy with the platform.

### "Great Platform with Some Glaring Weaknesses"

April 4, 2024

4.0

Overall, it was middling but edging toward the more positive side. No influencer marketing platform is perfect, but the thing we loved most about Upluence was its strong search and filter features. If it only paid a little more attention to the actual campaign management UI, this platform would be a LOT stronger.

Pros

The search and filter functionality or finding influencers is really clever. We really enjoyed the "tinder-style" approve/deny system of selecting influencers and adding them to lists. By far, the strongest thing Upfluence has going for them is their ability to drill down influencers by criteria. It was the main thing that attracted us t other platform, and for good reason.

Cons

Unfortunately, what they excel in with influencer search, they lack in automation, considerably their automated email sequencing (which there's next to none of). Emails have to be sent out individually, and once you get a response, the automation ceases, which makes for a lot of time spent communicating with Influencers. Beyond that, the way you organize lists and campaigns is very clunky in Upfluence. The UI isn't very well optimized, and it made for a very confusing time navigating the platform when we were using it. But the biggest issue by far is the inability to edit campaigns once they are setup. And, to make thing worse, if you spend time working on configuring a campaign's setup, there's no way to save your progress midway through, which means you can easily lose all of your progress if you don't complete the campaign setup all at one time. That led to a lot of time wasted when we would refresh a page or navigate away from the setup and then have to start all over again.

I can't speak highly enough about Upfluence. It has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Their intuitive interface, powerful analytics, and great customer support have made it a pleasure to work with their platform.

Pros

I love how Upfluence made managing my influencer relationships a breeze. Their platform offered a streamlined communication system, allowing me to collaborate with influencers, share briefs, and review content seamlessly. It really helped me maintain strong partnerships and ensured a smooth workflow.

Cons

Would have loved to have known from the start that they have an in-house influencer marketing agency, which could have helped us run our campaigns. This would have helped us onboard faster.

July 24, 2023

5.0

Overall experience was great! The platform is very intuitive and has helped me to grow the influencer service line at my agency.

Pros

I love that Upfluence integrates seamlessly into other platforms like Shopify and woocommerce. There's a wonderful integration that allows you to pull up an influencer's metrics when you're just scrolling on Instagram or TikTok which is extremely helpful as well. They have great customer service and are always willing to hop on a call and explain something. Additionally, they are always improving and updating the platform to benefit the users.

Cons

I personally always struggled with the feature that gives clients access to viewing influencer content for a campaign. I found that my clients were confused by it and couldn't figure it out easily.

### "Not Worth the Spend + Sneaky Renewal Process"

April 6, 2023

3.0

Horrendous. When it came time to the renewal phase, our contract automatically renewed without our agency needing to reconfirm payment or sign a new agreement... This clause was buried in their terms and conditions, not even written in the contract but only LINKED to an external page. The company sent an automated email about the upcoming renewal months prior to the renewal date but did not disclose any other information (like the process mentioned above) or that a 30-day notice was required for the membership not to renew. Very sneaky business, and when looking to discuss with the Upfluence team, they were of no help and only pointed to the terms. Not worth the spend for a platform that has limited capabilities compared to other competitors. Our agency will not be using this service in the future and plan to share our experience with other industry professionals.

Pros

Some of the search capabilities, but they do not compared to the more advanced offerings of other platforms.

Cons

Customer experience. In the course of 6 months, our representative changed three times, and they were always pushing new features + added capabilities.
