A Podium alternative priced for real small businesses.
Why owners switch
Why owners compare us to Podium
Podium is built for multi-location operators who want bundled messaging + payments + reviews. If that's you, they may be the right tool. If you mostly need compliant review routing with transparent SMB pricing, GoodMarks stays intentionally narrow so you're live today, not after a procurement cycle.
One customer journey. Two outcomes done right.
Tap stars in the demo, public sites stay available for every rating; private feedback shows alongside, not instead of.

nowService was slower than I expected and the part I needed wasn't in stock, wanted to give a heads-up before leaving a public review.
You see it before Google does, call back, refund, fix it.

Not review gating
Every customer sees your public review options.
GoodMarks never hides low ratings from Google. One-star and five-star customers get the same list of public platforms you configure. Lower ratings also see a private feedback path to you, alongside the public choices, not instead of them.

Questions owners ask.
How is GoodMarks different from Podium?
Podium bundles messaging, payments, and reviews at $300-$400+ per location after a sales process. GoodMarks focuses on compliant review routing, public platforms plus private feedback, for $30/mo per location with instant signup. If you need a full inbox-to-payment suite for a large franchise, Podium may still fit; if you need reviews done right without enterprise overhead, that's us.
Will I lose features I used in Podium?
GoodMarks doesn't replace SMS blast campaigns or POS integrations, we're deliberately narrow. You get smart routing, QR tools, analytics, and branding control. Many owners pair GoodMarks with the CRM or phone system they already use.
Is this compliant with Google and the FTC?
Yes. Every customer sees your configured public review sites. Lower ratings also get a private feedback option shown alongside, never instead of, those public choices. See /no-review-gating for the full policy breakdown.
What does migration look like?
Under five minutes: connect your Google review URL, add optional platforms, upload your logo, and print a QR. No implementation manager required.
Can I cancel anytime?
Monthly billing, cancel from the dashboard. No annual lock-in.
Ditch the sales call. Keep the reviews.
