About

The Honest Aggregator is a CRM review site whose only job is to tell you what real operators are saying about each CRM right now — with every claim cited to the source.

We exist because the CRM-review category is owned at the top by aggregator giants who can't keep their reviews recent, and at the bottom by AI-templated affiliate spam ranked by commission. Both ends fail the buyer for the same reason: the ranking has nothing to do with the buyer.

Our wedge is the only thing those competitors can't copy without dismantling their business model: recency, sourcing transparency, and disclosed conflicts.

Editorial principles

We treat the methodology page as constitutional. Specifically:

• No paid rankings, ever.
• Every assertion ties to a public, dated source.
• Nothing older than 12 months survives in the headline rating.
• Affiliate payout per CRM is shown on the review page itself.

Disclosure

We earn affiliate commissions if you sign up for a CRM through links on this site. Every review page shows the exact dollar payout in a disclosure block at the top. Commercial economics never affect ranking. If we ever rank a CRM higher than the data warrants because it pays better, the project is over.

Editors

This v0.1 of the site is operated solo. As we add reviewers, we will list them here with full names and LinkedIn profiles — anonymous editorial is incompatible with the trust posture above.

Tip lines and corrections: open an issue on the public methodology repo, or email the address on the methodology page footer. Vendors who want their CRM covered should not pitch — keep posting honestly in public, and the aggregation will find you.
