GAINESVILLE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / March 21, 2018 / SharpSpring, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHSP), a leading cloud-based marketing automation platform, today announced it has been recognized by customers as a Top Rated Marketing Automation Software for 2018 on TrustRadius, a B2B software technology review platform.

"SharpSpring earned its top-rated status in the marketing automation category as a direct result of customer feedback on TrustRadius," said Megan Headley, Research Director at TrustRadius. "Reviews, contributed mainly by users at marketing and advertising agencies in the small business sector, mention SharpSpring's built-in CRM, good value, and strong partner program as key differentiators. They especially like the ability to use SharpSpring to market to their clients as well as on behalf of their clients."

The TrustRadius Top Rated awards are unique because they are determined solely based on customer sentiment, measured by user satisfaction scores. They are not influenced by analyst opinion, the vendor's company size, popularity, site traffic, or status as a TrustRadius customer.

"We want to make it easy for customers to launch integrated marketing campaigns and improve ROI, so in the last year we focused on launching key new features, integrations and support programs to help them be more successful. It's exciting to see that reflected in positive customer feedback and ratings and being recognized as a top-rated marketing automation solution by TrustRadius," SharpSpring CEO Rick Carlson said.
