Thryv, Testimonial.to, or neither?
Thryv and Testimonial.to are aimed at different businesses, and one of them is probably right for you. Here is the honest read on all three.
Thryv
From about $244 a month
Owners who want CRM, scheduling, invoicing, a website and marketing from one vendor. The catch: the public record is rough: 2.5 on Trustpilot and 353 BBB complaints in three years.
Testimonial.to
Free tier, then $25 a month
Teams running video testimonial campaigns who want the best capture experience. The catch: no automated request campaigns. There is no sequence off a purchase or a finished job, so you ask manually every time.
Trophy Jar
$9/month, then $29
It asks every customer the moment a job, invoice, deal or order hits the status you choose, follows up with anyone who forgets, and stops the second they review. All 13 integrations and 7 widgets on every plan.

What Thryv and Testimonial.to customers actually say
Sales pages do not mention this part, so here it is, quoted from public reviews with names and links attached.
Thryv
Billing, contracts and cancellation
known unhappy customers
2.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot, from 414 public reviews. Check it
Thryv has the worst record here: 259 unhappy public reviewers, plus 353 BBB complaints logged in three years, 81 of them about billing. The pattern is consistent:
The drawbacks
- The public record is rough: 2.5 on Trustpilot and 353 BBB complaints in three years.
- Billing is the single largest BBB complaint category at 81 of those complaints.
- Cancellation and auto renewal disputes are the most repeated theme in its reviews.
- Reviews are one small module in a large suite, not the thing it is built around.
In their own words
“Very Shady Sales Practice”
Dale Quigley, in a public 1-star review on Trustpilot“Too expensive and too many bells and whistles for a sole proprietor!”
Jessica Snyder, in a public 1-star review on Trustpilot“When I tried to cancel you objected…”
Brian Goins, in a public 1-star review on Trustpilot
Testimonial.to
Manual asking, and per-space pricing
Testimonial.to has no public Trustpilot profile, so the notes below come from its user reviews and published plan limits.
Testimonial.to is very good at the part it does. The gaps are about scale:
The drawbacks
- There is no automated email or SMS sequence after a purchase or signup, so asking does not scale.
- The tool’s own branding stays on your testimonials until you reach a higher paid tier.
- The free plan caps you at 2 videos, and unlimited video is a significant step up in price.
- Charging per space means a second location or brand doubles the bill.
Known unhappy customers counts the people who left a 1 or 2 star public review, so it is a floor rather than an estimate. Quotes are verbatim from public reviews, shown with the reviewer name and linked to the source so you can check them yourself. They are individual opinions, not our verdict on either company. Figures were checked in July 2026 and move over time.
When each one is genuinely the right call
We are not going to pretend Trophy Jar wins every scenario. If one of these fits you better, buy it.
Pick Thryv if
Owners who want CRM, scheduling, invoicing, a website and marketing from one vendor.
- It really is all-in-one: CRM, appointments, invoicing, website and marketing under one login.
- One vendor and one bill instead of stitching five tools together.
- Useful if you have no website and no CRM and want the lot handled at once.
Pick Testimonial.to if
Teams running video testimonial campaigns who want the best capture experience.
- The video capture flow is the best in this group. Customers record with no login and it just works.
- A polished standalone collection page you can point campaigns at.
- Free tier is enough to genuinely try it.
What neither Thryv nor Testimonial.to will do for you
This is the gap both of them leave, and the reason people comparing the two end up on a third option.
It asks on anything your tools track
Not one fixed trigger. Any status your CRM, invoicing, payments or job software already exposes can fire a request: deal won, invoice paid, job closed, order shipped, matter settled.
All 13 integrations, every plan
Nothing is gated behind a higher tier, and we add at least one new integration a week.
We move you across, free
Requests, timing, routing, widgets and integrations rebuilt exactly as you had them, live within two business days, with reviews still collecting the whole time.
Follow-ups that know when to stop
Up to three reminders, only to the people who have not reviewed yet, and they stop the second someone does. Nobody gets nagged after they have already helped you.
Switching is not your job. It is ours.
You sign up. We do everything else, end to end, and you keep collecting reviews the entire time.
You sign up. That is your part.
No exports, no spreadsheets, no support tickets, no onboarding calls. Tell us what you are on today and hand the rest to us.
We rebuild everything, exactly as it was.
Your review requests, follow-up timing, sentiment routing, widgets and every integration, set up the way you already had it. You do nothing.
Live within two business days.
Nothing pauses, so no customer notices a thing. What you notice is more reviews landing, a rating that climbs, all without burning your wallet.
It runs on the tools you already have
Connect once and every finished job, paid invoice or won deal asks for a review on its own.
Every finished job turns into a review request before your van leaves the driveway.
Every paid invoice becomes a review request, so getting paid also grows your rating.
Each successful charge quietly asks for a review, so proof grows alongside revenue.
Won deals become public proof automatically, with nothing added to your team's checklist.
Reviews collect themselves off the invoices you were already sending.
Every won opportunity asks for itself, so your clients watch their reviews stack up.
It all runs off what your tools already track. If you can see it in your tool, you can ask for a review on it.
