Non-software B2B (services, industrial, manufacturing, BFSI; Bombora or TechTarget better), categories with thin G2 review volume, or buyers wanting broad cross-category intent (Bombora better).
B2B software vendors in categories with meaningful G2 review volume wanting first-party intent signals from software buyers actively comparing products.
Why we say this
Editorial pulled these weaknesses from G2 Buyer Intent’s product card in our Top 10 Intent Data Software for 2026:
- ! Scope limited to software-buying intent (not general B2B)
- ! Value heaviest for categories with serious G2 review volume
- ! IP-to-company resolution carries 15-30% noise
- ! Pricing tied to G2 marketplace participation (sponsor tiers)
- ! Not a fit for non-software verticals (services, industrial, BFSI)
- ! Per-category tiering can escalate fast
If G2 Buyer Intent is wrong for you, consider these instead
Same Buyer Intent / Intent Data Software category, different best-fit buyer.
