Simplicity wins for small businesses

ProvenExpert is a comprehensive reputation platform with surveys, certifications, team features, and a German-language heritage. For medium-sized agencies or enterprises managing dozens of review sources, it can be a fit.

But if you're a local service business — a plumber, a personal trainer, a real estate agent — you don't need all that. You need your customers' words on your website, displayed beautifully, driving new bookings.

That's what SocialProof does. Paste one script tag. Done.
