Products classified in the overall Decision-Making category are similar in many regards and help companies of all sizes solve their business problems. However, small business features, pricing, setup, and installation differ from businesses of other sizes, which is why we match buyers to the right Small Business Decision-Making to fit their needs.

In addition to qualifying for inclusion in the Decision-Making Software category, to qualify for inclusion in the Small Business Decision-Making Software category, a product must have at least 10 reviews left by a reviewer from a small business.

G2 takes pride in showing unbiased reviews on user satisfaction in our ratings and reports. We do not allow paid placements in any of our ratings, rankings, or reports. Learn about our scoring methodologies.
