Reviews
G2
G2 software review data
Product reviews, category placement and buyer sentiment for software.
What we can collect
What data can be collected from G2?
The exact schema follows your brief, but a typical G2dataset can include the following record groups when they are publicly exposed and permitted for the intended use.
- Reviews by product and category
- Segment breakdown by company size
- Feature-level scoring where published
- Competitor comparison signals
Practical field breakdown
review_idThe source identifier used to match this record across repeat collections.productThe published product value, normalised into the schema agreed for your project.categoryThe published classification used for filtering, grouping and market comparisons.ratingA platform-published reputation or engagement signal, stored with the observation date.prosThe relevant public text retained for search, analysis or downstream classification.consThe relevant public text retained for search, analysis or downstream classification.reviewer_segmentA platform-published reputation or engagement signal, stored with the observation date.company_sizeThe organisation or account attributed to the record by G2.posted_atA source timestamp or Scrapebuddy observation time used to build an auditable history.
Fields are representative rather than fixed. We show null when a value is not published; we do not quietly guess missing prices, identifiers, availability or review data.
What stands in the way
Rate limits and layout changes need handling, and the pipeline needs monitoring to stay reliable.

An estimate for planning, not a quote. The final rate follows the real volume and the state of the source when we scope it.

Delivery options
Delivered into your workflow
These are delivery formats we can arrange for a scoped project, not claims of a pre-authorised integration with G2.
Managed API
A documented endpoint shaped around the schema and query pattern agreed for your project.
Scheduled files
CSV, JSON or JSONL delivered on an agreed cadence for analysis or batch import.
Cloud or database delivery
A managed drop into your storage or database when direct delivery is the cleaner fit.
Worth knowing up front
Some review detail sits behind an account. We collect what is publicly reachable and will not use credentials to reach the rest.
We work within what each source permits and within applicable law. Where a source cannot be collected properly, we say so at feasibility stage rather than after you have paid.
Questions before you scope it
G2 data FAQ
Can Scrapebuddy collect fields not shown on this page?
Usually, if G2 publishes them and the intended use is permitted. Send the fields and representative URLs; feasibility is checked against the real surface before anything is promised.
How frequently can G2 data be refreshed?
Cadence is agreed around how quickly the values change and the cost of each query. Every delivery includes observation timestamps so snapshots and changes remain distinguishable.
What happens when the source changes?
Managed projects are monitored and repaired as source behaviour changes. A layout or request change is handled as maintenance rather than handed back as a broken script.
Can the data be used in a customer-facing product?
That depends on the source, fields, jurisdiction and intended use. We confirm collection feasibility, but you remain responsible for rights to store, publish or redistribute third-party data.
