Announcing the 2022 TrustRadius Most Loved Awards
Who says you can’t measure love? At TrustRadius, we can, and we have some of the most-loved products out there on our site. Last year, we developed several formulas to quantify or measure love sentiment expressed in customer reviews.
Our highly technical award-selection process, driven by math, spreadsheets, and love potions, uses formulas within adorable names like “loveCount”, “loveDensity”, and “lovePercentile”. With so much love in the air, this year we are announcing a new formula: “Super saturated love”. This love formula recognizes the top 20 vendors with over 200% love density in their reviews.
The TrustRadius Most Loved Award winners can literally wear their hearts on their sleeves by donning the Most Loved Award badge wherever their heart desires. This badge is a statement of their mathematically proven lovability, and we love that about them.
Without further ado, the industrially infatuated, the professionally passionate, the Most Loved software products of 2022. We have taken the liberty of highlighting the top ten winners; the full list is below.
Top ten Most Loved products of 2022
1. HubSpot Marketing Hub
Hubspot Marketing Hub is at the top of our Most Loved list, and a recent Top Rated award winner. This heartthrob saw a love density of over 1,000%! For those not versed in the science of love, this means they saw ten mentions of “love” for every single review! This incredible marketing automation tool was #9 on our list last year, and we can only hope Hubspot Marketing Hub knows what a heartbreaker they have on their hands (don’t worry, we emailed them). Users particularly praise the Hubspot product’s ease of use and wealth of features.
“We moved across almost exactly 12 months ago and got rid of all the PAIN(!) of WordPress, themes, CRM, mail tools and an endless selection of third party tools—all of which we were trying to integrate to do just what HubSpot already did—and a thousand times better! We now use HubSpot for everything”
Alex Chapman, Co-Creator ┃Totally Optimized Projects┃Management Consulting, 1-10 employees
2. ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect)
ConnectWise control is a remote desktop software that allows users to support, access, and collaborate their computers from anywhere. With the recent year we’ve had, is it any wonder our reviewers felt such affection? ConnectWise users have cemented their pandemic-proof love of this product. With incredible scores in implementation, scalability, and performance, there is plenty to love about this software.
“I use ConnectWise Control to manage 100+ IT customers on a daily basis, as well as access personal resources remotely. Without ConnectWise, it would be nearly impossible to offer the level of service that I can by using ConnectWise.”
Kevin Youngblood, Owner/ Technician┃Computers Plus of Union┃Computer Networking, 1-10 employees

Organization is attractive, and TrustRadius reviewers felt the love for Acuity Scheduling this year. This appointment scheduling tool allows users of all industries to better organize their staff and client meet-ups in a variety of forms. The high usability score shows just how easy this is for teams to make this work. With how good Acuity is at what it does, they will have no trouble planning a Valentine’s Day meeting to celebrate.
“It allows me to create different types of appointments with different amounts of time set aside for them, to charge for some appointments and not for others, to display certain types of appointments publicly and others only by sending someone a link to it. In other words, it’s extremely flexible.”

Many users found themselves producing well-made, official statements of love for this public relations (PR) tool. Cision Communications Cloud has a reputation for great performance and fantastic implementation from our users. A good PR tool allows organizations to manage their image and deal with crises, and Cision Communications Cloud does just that.

It does all of that and more. Combined with the ability to target specific journalists and regions, it makes sending targeted releases so much easier. If your distributions typically do not involve media, then Cision [Communications Cloud] isn’t for you.”

I would also like to mention that the cost is very reasonable.”
